The world's number one pianist

Chapter 142 I play, do you listen?

Since He Shen's music master class ended, the next few days have become extremely leisurely. Read М

In contrast, Zhou San didn't know what to do, and the whole person became very busy.

Not only him, but also other teachers in the Jiangzhou Normal University School of Music have become busy, as if they are preparing something.

Except for He Shen, He Shen sat in the office, looking at his busy colleagues around him, feeling like an outsider.

But no matter how He Shen asked them, they said there was nothing he needed to do.

"Hey, the first step of your work has been completed, and the next step will be handed over to us. Wait for the teaching competition in a few months."

Qu Shi looked at He Shen and kept asking her, and finally couldn't help it, and explained with He Shen.

"You have to prepare for the subsequent teaching competition now. That is the second step of our Jiangzhou Normal University School of Music. You can't make mistakes."

"We are now paving the way for future work. Don't worry about this. I still have a lot of literature to translate!"

After that, she drove He Shen back to his room and asked him to continue practicing in the piano room.

He Shen looked at the closed door and didn't know what to say for a moment. He could only continue to practice the piano.

After all, he didn't have anything to do except practicing the piano and teaching.

Time really passed quickly.

The first semester of college is very short, not only for students, but also for teachers like them.

He Shen even felt that he had not taken a few classes on the appreciation of romantic music, and he was already preparing for the final exam.

Fortunately, the test paper was not written by him, but by Professor Wu Chuan, who was in charge of this class.

Professor Wu Chuan carefully studied all of He Shen's course content and thought for a long time before writing a thick stack of test papers.

I believe that students in the school will smile kindly when they see this test paper, right?

Probably?

When He Shen was doing this test paper, he looked at the extremely difficult questions on it, but there were no questions beyond the syllabus, and he couldn't help but have a little mischievous mentality.

Thinking of the smiles of those students, He Shen couldn't help but smile a little.

As expected, the smile of the students can bring a better smile to the teacher.

It's just a pity...

Zhou San suddenly came over and knocked on the door of the piano room, interrupting his practice.

After He Shen allowed it, he immediately pushed open the door and asked He Shen awkwardly.

"Um, He Shen, I'm sorry... Are you free recently?"

"Something?"

He Shen put away the test paper in front of him, put it aside, looked at Zhou San, asked with a little doubt, and then added.

"I'm not busy recently."

"Not busy? That's good. Our other teachers are so busy recently. I really can't find anyone else. I can only come to find you..."

Zhou San sat aside, took out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat on his forehead, and then pulled his clothes a little open, and continued to talk to He Shen.

"Do you know that there will be an art exam recently?"

"Art exam?"

"Yes!"

He Shen was stunned when he heard Zhou San's affirmation.

He was very busy before this, but he remembered that Zhao Zitong said she was in a hurry to get the last piece, so He Shen arranged the last piece for her.

He listened to it a little bit before, and felt it was okay...

But it was still a little short.

At this time, with Zhou San's reminder, he realized that the art exam was very close now.

Zhou San looked at He Shen who seemed a little confused, thinking that He Shen didn't know much about this matter, and immediately explained.

"Well, this is something you shouldn't have done, but there really is no one..."

"For the art exam, each music school and each department in Jiangzhou sends one person to be an examiner to listen to the performances of all candidates in the department."

"For example, we have you from the School of Music of Jiangzhou Normal University, someone from the vocal department, and someone from the string department..."

"You probably need to go and listen to the performances of all piano majors in Jiangzhou this year, and then score them according to the prescribed scoring standards."

"You will also be scored with piano teachers from other music schools..."

Speaking of this, Zhou San saw that He Shen seemed to be a little bit resistant, and immediately added.

"Of course, you will get subsidies for doing this."

"It's just that the subsidies are not much, accommodation and three meals, and a few dozen yuan in subsidies every day..."

"Overall, it's not much, but it's okay, just relax?"

"After all, we really don't have a teacher..."

He Shen looked at Dan Yi, hesitated for a while, and nodded.

It was not for the several dozen yuan subsidy, accommodation and meals.

But for Zhao Zitong.

Zhao Zitong needed to take an art exam recently, so this was the opportunity to give Zhao Zitong the final boost and raise her level.

Of course, it was hard to say whether her level could be improved, but it was certain that it would be close to the examiner's review standard.

Therefore, after agreeing to Zhou San, He Shen directly called Zhao Zitong.

Just like before, Zhao Zitong's extremely lazy voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Hello, who is this~"

"I..." He Shen said lightly.

Zhao Zitong still didn't seem to wake up. He turned over and muttered:

"Me? Who am I... I don't have insurance, and I don't need a teacher. I have a teacher..."

"He Shen..."

"..."

It was obvious that Zhao Zitong still didn't have the habit of saving numbers. After a very obvious pause on the other end of the phone, Zhao Zitong's voice suddenly came out.

"Salted fish? Ahem, teacher? Teacher, why did you call me today?"

"Salted fish?" He Shen felt as if he heard a strange word.

Zhao Zitong immediately denied it.

"No, teacher, you heard it wrong, it's nothing..."

He Shen shook his head helplessly and said.

"Okay, let me tell you, I'm going to be an examiner."

"Huh? Examiner?"

"Art Examination Examiner."

"..."

There was no sound on the other end of the phone again. He Shen seemed to be used to this and continued calmly.

"If you can come earlier now, then come earlier and I will simulate it for you."

"Simulation? What simulation?"

"School recruitment simulation, art exam is not the best choice after all."

After that, He Shen hung up the phone.

After hanging up the phone, he sent a message to Ji Mengting, asking her to bring the other two boys to her piano room.

Soon, a chirping sound came, and Ji Mengting brought the first and last two, the two brothers in trouble, to the door of He Shen's piano room.

Before he even reached the door, he could hear those incomprehensible words.

"Hey, Sister Ji, why did you call us here? Today is not a day for class..."

"You're not working as a free labor force for Teacher He, are you? Come on, Teacher He is a bad student?"

"That's right, we don't want to become free labor!"

"..."

The two of them chatted for a long time, and Ji Mengting suddenly said in a cold voice.

"Finished?"

"..."

"Now that you're done, be quiet. I'm going to knock on the door."

After that, Ji Mengting walked to the door and gently knocked on the piano room door with the joint of her index finger.

He Shen's voice immediately appeared in the piano room.

"Enter!"

"teacher!"

Ji Mengting opened the door, took the two people behind, and walked into the piano room door. She looked at He Shen sitting on the piano and asked in a slightly puzzled tone.

"Um, teacher, what's going on today? Today is not a school day..."

"Your school girl is about to take the art exam, so I asked you to come over and take a look."

He Shen looked at the music score in his hand and said casually.

Ji Mengting was stunned for a moment.

"School girl? Who?"

"Zhao Zitong, you should know him."

"Zhao Zitong?"

Before Ji Mengting could speak, the two free students behind spoke up first. They looked at He Shen in surprise and asked in disbelief.

They both asked at the same time: "Teacher, who are you talking about? Zhao Zitong? Her?"

He Shen didn't raise his head and said casually: "Yes, what's wrong?"

"She is our school girl?"

"What do you mean by school girl? If you mean admission, then she is not..."

"Then what kind of school girl is she..."

He Shen raised his head, closed the book in his hand, looked at the two students, and said calmly.

"She was the first student I accepted."

"The first one, the accepted student?" The two were puzzled.

"Um……"

He Shen had no intention of explaining more, but Ji Mengting, who was standing aside, instantly understood He Shen's thoughts and spoke immediately.

"Teacher, I understand. In terms of age, she belongs to our school girl, but in terms of seniority, she should be considered a senior sister?"

"Yes." He Shen nodded, "If you like to call her senior sister, then call her."

"don't want!"

The three of them shook their heads at the same time.

Ji Mengting didn't think much about anything, she just felt awkward calling someone younger than herself a senior sister.

The two students who were given away for free were completely frozen.

They suddenly thought about what they had called Senior Sister Zhao Zitong in front of He Shen.

If this matter is told by others.

Then myself...

The faces of the two people gradually turned pale, and the expression on He Shen's face became not particularly good.

Wuwuwu, don’t let others know.

Especially boss Ji Mengting!

The two of them secretly glanced at Ji Mengting, but found that Ji Mengting didn't even look at them, and couldn't help but feel a little lucky.

Just when the two of them were extremely happy, the door of the piano room was knocked again.

Dong dong dong...

Zhao Zitong's extremely lively voice appeared at the door.

"Teacher? Teacher, are you there? Teacher, I'm coming in~"

After saying that, without waiting for He Shen's consent, she immediately opened the door of the piano room, looked at the students in the room, and her hands froze slightly.

Then, she immediately restrained her extremely heroic aura, and bowed slightly awkwardly and nodded to everyone.

"Um, ahaha, hello everyone, where are you all, why are you not talking? Ahaha..."

Zhao Zitong tried his best to use laughter to relieve the embarrassment, but found that the atmosphere in the whole room was getting more and more awkward.

Especially the two students huddled in the corner.

Ji Mengting only saw Zhao Zitong once last time and didn't know that she was Zhao Zitong. Now that she saw her, she immediately stood up, bowed slightly, stretched out her hand and said gently to Zhao Zitong.

"Hello, I am Ji Mengting."

"Hello, hello, I know you..."

Zhao Zitong held Ji Mengting's hand and felt that her hand was particularly soft and comfortable. She couldn't help but take another look at Ji Mengting.

She only met Ji Mengting once last time and didn't communicate much.

Now this was her first formal meeting with Ji Mengting, so naturally she wanted to take a few more glances.

Sure enough, just as I thought, this Miss Ji Mengting is indeed a lady-like girl. She is very cute, very cute.

Moreover, he has quite a temperament, a very educated temperament!

Ji Mengting also looked at Zhao Zitong and nodded silently.

Vigorous, full of energy, and passionate about everything.

She should be a energetic girl type character!

but……

The two of them had an idea at the same time, it was this guy opposite...

I definitely can't handle it!

Just as the two people were looking at each other, He Shen's voice suddenly sounded.

"Have you seen enough?"

"ah?"

The two people were immediately frightened, looked at the time, and then decisively let go of their hands.

After letting go of their hands, the two of them looked at He Shen at the same time, with a little bit of embarrassment in their eyes.

"Uh, teacher, I'm sorry..."

"fine."

He Shen shook his head and didn't particularly study them. He just felt that their handshake was a little too long.

Now that they have let go of their hands, let's continue with the rest of the journey.

He Shen looked at Zhao Zitong and suddenly asked.

"Zhao Zitong, how many of the works I gave you have you practiced now?"

"Teacher, I have practiced everything..." Zhao Zitong was a little unsure...

"Report it." He Shen said calmly.

Zhao Zitong looked at He Shen and realized that he must reveal it himself. He couldn't help but feel a little afraid and whispered.

"Baroque period work, Bach's Twelve Equal Temperaments, BWV862."

"Classical period work, Beethoven's "Pastoral" Sonata."

"A work from the Romantic period, Chopin's First Piano Ballade."

"Modern and contemporary works, Debussy, Moonlight."

Zhao Zitong looked at He Shen, nervousness revealed in his eyes.

She practiced these pieces for a long time, spending time in the piano room from morning to night, practicing non-stop.

Although she can basically take it out now, she doesn't have any confidence at all...

Now, Zhao Zitong even hopes that He Shen can just smoke a song and pass.

Unfortunately, no.

He Shen just looked at her, nodded silently, touched his chin, and began to think.

He helped select these four works.

Chopin's No. 1 Piano Ballade, Zhao Zitong should have reached the entry-level level now, interpreting all the symbols in this piece.

At the same time, I also added a little bit of my own understanding.

This can be regarded as her best work...

Then there is BWV862, this piece of twelve equal temperament.

Although He Shen has been criticizing Zhao Zitong for this piece of Twelve Equal Temperament, he feels that her performance is not perfect enough.

But in fact, Zhao Zitong's performance is actually very good!

At least in the eyes of the two cheap students at the back, Zhao Zitong's strength is very good.

It's a pity that Zhao Zitong didn't realize that her level was good. She was constantly being asked by He Shen to achieve professional-level goals.

Naturally, she has never been able to reach He Shen's bottom line, and naturally she is often criticized by He Shen.

Therefore, she never felt that her BWV862 played well...

Beethoven's "Pastoral" Sonata was selected in October. In about half a month, Zhao Zitong picked out the first movement and played it to him.

Barely, Level 2...

Very reluctantly.

There are very few mispronunciations, and there are also very few incorrect contents.

Most of the mistakes are caused by unclear musical expression and lack of personal ideas.

The last piece, Debussy’s Moonlight, is actually similar to this one.

The problem is similar to that of Haydn's works, both of which are not perfect.

Therefore, looking at Zhao Zitong, he couldn't help but touch his chin and suddenly said.

"So, what piece do you want to play today?"

"Huh? What piece do I want to play today?"

Zhao Zitong, who was originally extremely nervous, waiting for He Shen to draw lots, suddenly froze, looked at He Shen, and asked uncertainly.

"Um, can I choose?"

"Yes, you choose."

"I choose..."

Zhao Zitong rolled his eyes and immediately had an idea.

Chopin's First Piano Ballade! She is the best at this piece, so if you play it to others, she won’t be shy at all!

But when she was about to say that she was going to play Chopin's Piano Ballade No. 1, she suddenly stopped.

If I were like this and told He Shen directly that I wanted to play this piece, would He Shen feel that she was evading?

This is a very good opportunity.

Everyone sitting here is a student of the school she wants to come to after her.

She could show these people her works that she had just practiced for a while and see their reactions.

Look at the gap between you and these people!

Zhao Zitong hesitated for a moment and then said.

"Teacher, I want to play "Pastoral"!"

After the words fell, He Shen had no reaction, but the other three people were a little surprised.

They looked at Zhao Zitong with slight surprise.

This school girl actually wants to play Beethoven's "Pastoral" sonata?

To be honest, this sonata is not technically difficult.

However, the music and pictures of this sonata are very difficult, very, very difficult!

To shape and construct a pastoral poem.

This is not something that can be done easily.

This requires at least a long, long time of skill to do.

This girl, who doesn't seem particularly powerful, can she do it?

Everyone began to raise questions in their hearts.

And, give Zhao Zitong a cross in advance.

Even if she is He Shen's student...

Yes, many people will choose particularly difficult works during the art exam, hoping to win difficulty points.

To put it simply, if you do 100% on a 60-point paper, you can only get 60 points.

And for your 150-point paper, if you get 50%, you can get 75 points!

One is a perfect interpretation of a simple work, and the other is a difficult interpretation that cannot even reach a passing level.

People will definitely be more willing to play these particularly difficult pieces.

After all, even if you don't play well, you can still get a very high score.

but……

This also means that many people's song selections will be infinitely improved, reaching a level that is completely inconsistent with their own level.

When they played the video of this piece, it was full of flaws and riddled with holes.

This level of performance is simply disgusting!

And this kind of performance is too much...

Too many to count!

Moreover, most of them focus on Beethoven, Chopin, and Liszt.

That group of people like to practice with Chopin, Liszt, and Beethoven, regardless of whether they have reached their own level.

This is why, when they heard that Zhao Zitong was going to play Beethoven, their first reaction was distrust.

Beethoven needed power to make the music clash and enhance the contrast and layering between phrases.

Can she do it?

Beethoven needs experience, the experience of experiencing countless things and constantly reflecting on it.

Does she have it?

It is undeniable that during the art exam, there are some very powerful students who can barely do this.

but……

Those particularly powerful students are already famous before taking the art exam.

For example, a representative of a high school attached to a certain music conservatory, or a minor champion in an international level competition.

People of this level can perform music like this, they believe it.

Zhao Zitong?

If He Shen hadn't told them that Zhao Zitong was his student.

The first reaction of the three of them was to turn around and run away.

They themselves don't dare to say that they can play this thing very well, and they don't even dare to show it in front of outsiders.

Why did my teacher, Teacher He Shen, choose this piece for this student?

And looking at how confident Zhao Zitong is...

Those who are so confident either have real ability or are blindly confident.

Simply looking at the appearance of Zhao Zitong, a girl with incomparable vitality, everyone believed...

Zhao Zitong is Tiehanhan who is blindly confident.

Zhao Zitong just felt that the sight of these people was a bit strange, and couldn't help scratching his head, but he didn't pay too much attention.

She walked directly to the piano, sat down with a clatter, and handed the music score in her hand to He Shen.

Then he pretended to close his eyes and said to everyone.

"Next, I'll play and you listen..."

"..."

No one spoke, Zhao Zitong raised his head in embarrassment and asked in a low voice.

"Um, teacher, is that what you said?"

"..."

"..."

"..."

He Shen looked at Zhao Zitong without saying anything.

Ji Mengting looked at Zhao Zitong without saying anything.

The first to last and the second to last, these two brothers in distress looked at Zhao Zitong and also said nothing.

The whole scene was extremely embarrassing. Everyone looked at Zhao Zitong and said nothing at all.

No one would suddenly think that Zhao Zitong would say such a thing in that situation...

Forehead……

What about second grade?

What you say is such a mean thing!

This is too secondary...

This is also...

hiss……

etc? ? ? Doesn't seem right?

Ji Mengting, as well as the two brothers and sisters, all looked at He Shen at the same time, their eyes full of deep meaning.

It turns out that I learned all this from you!

Teacher He!

Seeing Zhao Zitong like this, He Shen couldn't help but feel a little headache, and pinched his eyebrows hard.

He originally thought that Zhao Zitong could just play a Chopin ballad and let this group of people listen to Chopin's ballad.

After all, the most important thing about this exam is not to test Zhao Zitong's level, but to test Zhao Zitong's mentality!

If her mentality does not collapse, and at the same time, she can still perform extremely beautiful music...

Then she will definitely not have any problems in her subsequent performances.

Unexpectedly, she actually chose Beethoven's "Pastoral" sonata, which she had just learned.

And, now I’m learning to speak for myself!

He also said, like this...

He Shen couldn't find a suitable word to describe this feeling for a while. It just felt like this word was a bit silly and naive.

I didn't feel this way when I said it myself, so why did it feel so weird when it came out of Zhao Zitong's mouth?

When He Shen thought of this, he couldn't help but have a headache. He stood up and reached out to knock Zhao Zitong's head with the joint of his index finger.

"Play the piano."

"Hiss..."

Zhao Zitong hugged her head and looked at He Shen, glaring.

"Teacher, don't knock my head. What if I don't grow taller in the future! No, no, what if I get stupid after being knocked by you?"

"Don't talk nonsense, play!"

He Shen looked at Zhao Zitong, frowned, and immediately planned to hit her head again.

Seeing that He Shen seemed to be angry, Zhao Zitong didn't dare to make trouble anymore. She stuck out her tongue and made a face to He Shen when He Shen turned around.

When He Shen sat down, she returned to normal.

He Shen didn't see Zhao Zitong's face at all, but the three people sitting behind him saw it completely.

The two brothers immediately put their fingers between their teeth and bit them hard.

Let the pain of their fingers stop their inner smiles and prevent themselves from laughing during class.

Ji Mengting put the music score in front of her, smiled gently, and lowered her voice as much as possible so that others would not notice her.

Obviously, no one noticed her, and everyone's attention was on Zhao Zitong.

Zhao Zitong seemed to feel the pressure and no longer dared to make a fuss. She spoke to everyone honestly.

"Beethoven Sonata, "Pastoral""

"Performer, Zhao Zitong!"

After saying that, she raised her hand slightly, placed it in front of everyone, and gently dropped it under everyone's gaze.

Dang, dang, dang...

A low sound sounded.

He Shen nodded silently.

This place, the bass at the beginning, is called stubborn bass.

This bass runs through the entire work and is reflected in many places.

This sound will be presented in the main melody like a line.

Therefore, the music at the beginning is very important!

This importance should not be underestimated by anyone.

You must create that kind of musical feeling.

Zhao Zitong did it, she barely managed it.

It was just a bass at the beginning, the sound was extremely low.

Just like the pulse of the earth.

Slowly fluctuating.

Dong, Dong, Dong...

The sound was thick and low, and people's hearts seemed to beat along with it.

The sound of the main melody came out of the piano.

He Shen didn't feel anything. He had talked to Zhao Zitong about the problem of this place before.

However, the three people sitting in the back began to sit still.

Ji Mengting was okay. She was knowledgeable. Her previous teacher had taken her to see many, many, very powerful performers.

Therefore, she was a little bit accustomed to it, but she thought that Zhao Zitong's opening performance was not bad!

However, the two brothers sitting at the back were different...

They looked at each other blankly again and began to regret their previous shallowness.

"Fuck, did we say anything bad just now?"

"No? Maybe we just don't look good?"

"Sure enough, you must never underestimate the teacher's students. Even Beethoven can be taught by the teacher..."

"Yes, this Beethoven, just this beginning, the pastoral flavor instantly rises! This feeling is really great!"

"Indeed, you can look at her musical expression, the bass at the beginning is low, my God..."

"It's about to break, but not yet broken, the fingers fall again at the moment of lifting, skipping notes, with legato, showing the characteristics of the music itself to the fullest!"

"That's the feeling... That's right! That's the feeling!"

"And the rest, you go and listen, her performance is simply amazing."

"The musicality of the high melody at the beginning is really terrifying!"

"Oh my god..."

The two people's eyes are getting more and more shocked.

Is this really something that an ordinary student who hasn't been admitted to college can play?

What are those who have been admitted to college...

Trash fish?

Isn't this too much?

This feeling is really too painful.

It's like going back to a few months ago when I first took classes with Teacher He Shen.

Sure enough, no wonder this girl asked us to call her senior sister. Her strength is indeed worthy of the title of senior sister!

Ji Mengting's eyes did not change, but she also nodded.

"Zhao Zitong's strength is not bad. She really deserves to learn from Teacher He for so long..."

"Even if many people recognize that few art students can play Beethoven well, she can play it in this state. It's really amazing!"

"She really has some strength!"

Zhao Zitong naturally didn't know that the people around her were looking at her in shock. She just tried her best to think about what He Shen had told her before, and how to play in this place.

To think about why this place needs to be played like this.

Then, present your ideas in front of everyone.

She began to gradually forget that she was taking the test now. She began to feel that she was practicing.

In the sea of ​​music, enjoy the music wantonly.

Just like at home.

Because she always feels this extremely comfortable feeling when practicing, she likes to practice piano very much.

That's why she improves so fast.

As the music progresses quickly, the music moves from the presentation section to the development section.

The content of the development section makes the originally monotonous theme develop again, becoming extremely huge, showing more content, and also showing new themes.

The music, without interruption.

The last two brothers who fell one after another showed a painful look.

I was in the top 100 in the state at that time, what on earth was the top 100? ? ?

Why, this student who has not yet enrolled is better than me...

Woo woo woo, I'm so bad!

The more they listen, the more they feel that they are bad.

The more Ji Mengting listens, the calmer her expression becomes.

However, in the same way, she looks at He Shen more and more times.

If you look at her eyes, you can see it.

Every time she looks at He Shen, her eyes are full of admiration.

Teacher He Shen can actually teach such a student!

His strength is really strong!

In this mood, everyone kept watching Zhao Zitong's performance, waiting for every shining point in her performance.

Every time they heard the shining point in her music, they couldn't help but laugh, completely forgetting that they came here to find faults.

Finally, at the end of the whole song, Zhao Zitong raised her hand suddenly.

The sound ended completely.

Then she looked at He Shen carefully and asked with great expectation.

"Teacher, how is my performance?"

He Shen did not answer, but looked at the other three students and said.

"Come on, talk about it, you are the examiner."

The three people looked at each other, and then the two brothers looked at Ji Mengting at the same time, and their intentions were already very obvious.

We, can't!

Boss, you come!

Ji Mengting looked at the eyes of the two of them, couldn't help but sigh, nodded, stood up from his seat, walked to He Shen, and then said.

"Teacher, I think her performance is OK."

"Hmm..."

He Shen did not comment, but continued to look at her.

Ji Mengting looked at Zhao Zitong, tapped her chin with her finger, thought for a while, and explained.

"Teacher, overall, I think she can give 80% of the score. As far as her performance is concerned, her level is very good!"

"First of all, the beginning part, her bass at the beginning, is very stable and steady, and every note seems to hammer on people's hearts."

"This kind of external hammering feeling, I think she played very well!"

Zhao Zitong looked at Ji Mengting, pursed her lips, and muttered softly.

"I clearly played the pulse of the earth..."

He Shen looked at Ji Mengting, Ji Mengting pretended not to hear, stretched out her hand and clenched her fist, coughed slightly in front of him, pretended not to hear, and continued.

"Of course, she still has some problems, such as the language in the music. Sometimes I don't know what she wants to say, and the whole language is empty."

"For example, some of her crescendo and decrescendo marks are not played at all, and the content of the music itself may be a little less, which is also worth our attention..."

"Others..."

Ji Mengting thought for a while, then shook her head.

"Other content should be gone."

He Shen nodded, looked at the two brothers who were sitting at the back and said nothing, and asked.

"What about you? What do you think?"

"No, no, Ji Mengting said it very well!"

"That's right, Ji Mengting hit the point completely!"

"That's right! Teacher, don't worry about us, our words have been taken away by Ji Mengting!"

"..."

The two sang in unison, without the slightest desire to express their own thoughts. He Shen looked at the two people and suddenly spoke when he saw them panicking.

"Didn't you notice the ending?"

"The ending?"

"What ending?"

"Ah?"

Everyone looked confused, stood up, walked to Zhao Zitong's side, and looked at her music score.

At this moment, on the music score, there are three bars at the end.

The first bar is the dominant seventh chord.

The second bar is the tonic chord.

The third bar is the rest.

The dominant seventh chord and the tonic chord are both in three beats, occupying one beat, and they are gone after playing once.

Everyone recalled Zhao Zitong's performance and couldn't help but feel a little confused...

There is no mistake in this place?

Whether it is the sound or the duration, there is no mistake, why would the teacher ask them to pay attention to the ending?

After hesitating for a moment, Ji Mengting shook her head at He Shen.

"Teacher, I don't understand. I don't understand why you asked us to focus on the ending of this piece."

"Yes, teacher, we don't understand either. Can you explain it to me?"

"That's right, I don't understand..."

The two brothers immediately joined in and looked at He Shen expectantly.

He Shen looked at Zhao Zitong and asked.

"So, do you know where you went wrong?"

"I don't know..."

Zhao Zitong shook her head, with a confused look on her face.

She really didn't know where she went wrong.

He Shen looked around the crowd and found that no one really found the wrong place. He couldn't help but sigh and pointed to the end.

Zhao Zitong was stunned.

Ji Mengting was stunned.

The two brothers were stunned.

They had never thought that He Shen's hand at this moment was actually pointing at...

"Rest???"

The two brothers were the first to speak. They looked at the rest with a blank face.

"Teacher, why is this place wrong? Isn't it a stop here? There is no sound behind it, isn't it the end here?"

"Yes..."

Zhao Zitong also looked confused. She didn't expect that she was wrong at this place, and she immediately spoke.

"Isn't this place a rest? I took my hand down..."

"No..."

He Shen shook his head, pointed to the rest in front of him, and then pointed to Zhao Zitong, and spoke very seriously.

"Your music ended in the previous measure..."

"Eh? But..."

"No buts!"

He Shen frowned, tapped the back of the piano with his index finger, and said very seriously.

"As long as you still want to make music, you can't indulge yourself like this. Where does this but come from?"

"You let go of your hand in the first row of the second to last measure, that is, when the last note ended."

"What about the rest at the end? Did you eat it?"

"Music should be done very seriously. The rest at the end is meaningful! The music in this place is to make the reverberation that has not completely dissipated before completely dissipate at this place."

"What about you? How do you do it? Just let the music end at the beginning of the previous beat, and there is no music at the end!"

"Are you really making music?"

"Have you really paid attention to the music on the score?"

Zhao Zitong didn't dare to speak. She lowered her head and was scolded.

If it is just about the sound, she should end at that place.

However, after your fingers loosen, you must not stand up at that time. You must wait until the music completely dissipates in the air before standing up.

Let the music end in the air.

The music in this place is not difficult and easy to do.

However, I didn't do it. I just thought that I just needed to play the last note.

Zhao Zitong didn't dare to speak, and the others around him didn't dare to speak.

For a while, the whole piano room fell into silence again.

He Shen looked at the people who bowed their heads, sighed, and shook his head slightly.

"It's okay, this place is just a small detail. You did well in other places. Your seniors also praised you so much. Don't worry too much."

"So, have you thought about what works you need to play in the art exam?"

Zhao Zitong suddenly raised her head, looked at He Shen, and asked puzzledly.

"Well, teacher, don't you play four pieces?"

"No, this is a separate enrollment within the school, and you will need four pieces. If you are only taking the art exam, then you only need two pieces."

"Is that so..."

Zhao Zitong hesitated for a moment and said to He Shen.

"Teacher, then I want to choose Chopin's First Piano Ballade and this sonata, is that okay?"

"Okay."

He Shen nodded, took out his mobile phone from his pocket, and asked Zhao Zitong.

"Do you know the time of your exam? When is the exam?"

"Let me see..."

Zhao Zitong opened the music score, found her own music score on the first page of the music score, and said.

"Well, teacher, I will take the professional exam in three days."

"Okay, come to school in three days, and I will take you to take the art exam."
