The world's number one pianist

Chapter 300: Doubt and Glory!

Everything in Beethoven's sonata was quickly passing through He Shen's brain.

When he was writing the works he wanted to write, everything Beethoven did appeared in front of He Shen.

He Shen also followed Beethoven's steps and understood Beethoven's understanding of music bit by bit.

Beethoven is different from Chopin.

He doesn't like to talk, won't express his thoughts on music, and the whole person seems particularly gloomy.

When interpreting early works, it was actually okay. He once said to everyone in public.

He said that he could support those musicians without sponsorship purely by his own royalties and performances, without the sponsorship of others.

At that time, he was in his prime, and the whole person seemed extremely enterprising.

This is normal. At that time, Beethoven was already a very famous pianist, very famous!

Unlike Bach, who became famous after his death.

Although Bach's Well-Tempered Clavier was later called the Old Testament of Classical Music, he was just an ordinary court musician at the time.

He was just an ordinary person who wrote works for those nobles.

He was famous, but definitely not as famous as he is now.

So famous that every pianist had to play his Well-Tempered Clavier.

You should know that no matter where the music school is, the works to be played are a Well-Tempered Clavier, a sonata from the classical period, music and etudes from the romantic period, and modern works.

Only the works of the Baroque period are strictly stipulated to be Bach's Well-Tempered Clavier.

The works of other periods, even Beethoven, were not forced to be sonatas from the classical period, and only Beethoven's 32 sonatas could be played.

No matter who he saw in He Shen's system, Beethoven was extremely respected.

He Shen seemed to see some familiar people in Beethoven's memory.

For example, Czerny.

As his student, Czerny studied with Beethoven.

Seeing Mozart, both Beethoven and Mozart were students of Haydn, but when Beethoven met Mozart, Mozart had grown up and was nearly 31 years old, so the two did not have a particularly deep relationship.

When Beethoven tried to become Mozart's apprentice, he was rejected. The two became close friends and later turned to Haydn to learn from him.

However, in some early and middle sonata works, He Shen could clearly see the differences between Beethoven and Haydn.

Beethoven hated Haydn's old and decadent composition techniques, so he decided to refuse to continue to study with Haydn and turn to free creation.

After all, what needs to be learned has been learned almost!

The early and middle works of Beethoven gave He Shen a good experience, but when it came to the late stage, it was completely tortured!

Beethoven refused to speak, his body was in pain, and his ears were not very good.

The combination of various external factors made this subjective perspective give He Shen a very bad experience.

It was different from Chopin's experience.

Every time Chopin experienced it, he could clearly feel the reason why Chopin created this piece of work.

When Beethoven created each piece of work, he had almost no reason.

Everything was kept in his heart.

Even if others had impressions of him, he would not say it.

He Shen could only feel the things in Beethoven's music by the relationship between the past and the present.

Think about why Beethoven wrote like that.

What does this kind of writing mean to Beethoven.

These things kept flashing in He Shen's brain.

He did not move until He Shen was separated from all the memories of Beethoven.

Just sitting on the bed, with his eyes closed, thinking about music.

Let Beethoven merge with his own thoughts about Beethoven.

Let his music reach the level he wants in the last possible time!

He Shen was thinking and felt that time was stopping.

And outside, there was no concept of time stopping at all!

People from all over Europe, all over the world, classical music lovers, especially Chinese people, and piano lovers, can see some posters about He Shen when they walk on the street.

There are posters from all over the world!

Although it is not as exaggerated as hanging posters on street lights, making giant posters on walls, and making specially painted posters on buses.

But on the railings of those streets and at the doors of some shops, you can see news about He Shen's concert.

This is not the point.

The point is the information about the performance repertoire announced later, which directly shocked everyone.

Beethoven's 32 piano sonatas, all of them!

From the first to the last, thirty-two!

In addition to some relatively simple early works, those works that are particularly difficult to play are also included.

Appassionata Sonata.

Hammerkey Sonata.

Tempest Sonata.

These sonatas have to be played within one day?

How is this possible?

The Internet was instantly boiling! Whether it was watching the concert or not, everyone was boiling!

Xi Yi San Ren: "What the hell? Am I seeing this right? Piano sonata, complete set? Are you kidding? How can anyone play like this? This is crazy, right?"

Shan Jiayun: "I don't understand. For a piano sonata, even if you have a short time, it takes twenty minutes to play a whole set of sonatas. By half an hour, even if you play five pieces in two hours, you need to play them continuously. Playing for six hours, crazy?”

Three peach blossoms and a pound of wine: "Brothers, what else is there to say? He Shen is awesome and that's it!"

Geenz Ji: "I can't say, I feel it's a bit hyped. If there is a break in the middle, this concert should last for about seven hours! Is there really an audience that can listen to this length of time? "

Swan's Sorrow: "I can't say whether the audience can listen to it. I won't listen to it anyway. It lasts for seven or eight hours. Is this crazy? Half in the morning and half in the afternoon? What a joke! Are you competing with the audience? Are you patient?"

The scholar: "Okay, awesome!"

DE is still the same: "Anyway, He Shen's attempt is still OK, but I don't know what the follow-up situation will be."

Feng Yu Bu Xi: "I can't say what I'm trying to do this time..."

Changtian Xueman: "But think about it in another direction. Those who bought the tickets this time made a lot of money! If you watch the subsequent concerts, He Shen randomly selected four Beethoven sonatas to perform. There is nothing like Today, I played 32 songs!”

China forward: "Indeed, if those people at the Berlin Stadium can persevere, they will definitely make a lot of money!"

Ricardo: "Let me tell you some good news. If you really play it all, it will not be 7 or 8 hours, but 11 hours!"

Ricardo: "Eleven hours and twenty minutes, not stopping at all in the middle, and playing all the music from memory!"

Ricardo: "This is not a concert, this is an extreme challenge!"

Ricardo: "The ultimate memory challenge of the human brain!"

Ricardo: "Thirty-two works, nearly 50 different moods, hundreds of thousands of notes, thousands of musical symbols!"

Ricardo: "If you put everything together, even if you are asked to memorize ancient poems, you may not be able to memorize them! You can imagine how difficult it will be this time!"

As soon as these words came out, the entire network fell into silence for a few seconds. Only then did everyone realize that He Shen's performance was not an ordinary performance made up of time.

I used to think it might only be seven or eight hours, but it didn’t seem like much.

Everyone can work at least seven or eight hours a day.

But now Ricardo said that the overall time needed was not seven or eight hours, but eleven hours and twenty minutes!

This intensity was instantly different from the previous seven or eight hours.

When everyone saw this length of time, they didn't know what to say.

All they have left in their hearts now is probably one sentence.

That is...

How awesome!

Although most people on the Internet are not optimistic about He Shen's performance, many people think that He Shen's first public tour concert will end in a very disastrous result.

But no matter how you look at it, He Shen's attempt will be a performance worthy of being recorded in history for them.

Especially if the performance this time is very good!

Eleven hours, twenty minutes, dedicated to interpreting the music.

Thinking about music without resting for a minute.

If they can't even finish the test paper for eleven hours and twenty minutes a day, let alone practice the piano?

Therefore, people online are frantically discussing He Shen's concert and are looking forward to it with great anticipation.

I don't know what to expect.

He is looking forward to He Shen turning over and becoming one of the many living beings.

Or are you looking forward to He Shen's concert to become a god?

Or... both?

Gusu

Seeing that the popularity was still good, Jiang Yunling contacted Weibo officials a little, made a countdown topic, and put it on the hot search list.

As a result, more people began to pay attention to He Shen's concert.

Finally, as time went by, the popularity grew higher and higher, and amid everyone's expectations, the time came for the concert!

Berlin in winter rarely had a very nice sunny day.

This kind of sunny day is very rare in Berlin, which is almost always cloudy and makes people feel depressed.

Near the Berlin Philharmonic Hall, countless people gathered at the door, waiting for the concert to start.

It was very early, just before eight o'clock, and there were already many people.

This situation is very rare in the concert hall!

One can even say...

Hardly seen!

Almost no concert halls start their normal business in the morning, and most of them are open in the evening.

But now, because of He Shen's giant concert that lasted for more than ten hours, everyone was moving.

No one was lazy, they quickly came to their posts, checked the tickets, and put the people standing outside, feeling the cold wind, into the concert hall.

The first floor is where clothes are stored. After everyone stored their clothes, a small number of people went to the concert hall first and sat down to wait for the concert to start.

Most people were standing at the wine bar outside the concert hall, holding glasses and communicating casually with others.

Most of these people standing outside, the drinks in their hands are ordinary sparkling water.

Only a few people would order a little beer occasionally, not much, about 100ml, just a taste.

In the concert hall, the tuner was doing the final tuning.

The staff was quickly arranging the cameras to make sure that all the cameras were functioning properly.

In the past, there was only one camera for a normal concert, which was almost enough, but this time, eight cameras were used!

First, there was a camera on the left and right sides of the piano.

There was also one in front of the piano.

There was another one hanging on the cantilever above.

The remaining three or four, two on the stage, and one was carried by two staff members, ready for recording when He Shen performed later.

Their main job was to prevent certain clips from being recorded normally after the camera got stuck, and to use substitutes.

And to shoot some moving shots.

These two people and other staff members looked at the camera in front of them as if they were facing a great enemy.

"Have the cameras been adjusted for the last time? Check it quickly!"

"Have the backup cameras been prepared?"

"Is there enough space for the cameras to record? Check it quickly!"

"How is the radio equipment? Can the radio equipment record normally? There must not be any mistakes!"

"This concert is to be recorded as a record, not a normal tour concert! Everyone pay 100% attention!"

"There must not be any mistakes!"

The person in charge standing on the stage looked at the people in the audience with an extremely serious expression and a very fierce tone.

This is his job, he must ensure that everything is foolproof and there must not be any problems.

If something goes wrong at that time, the loss will be great.

Especially if the god-level performance of the performer is not successfully recorded.

After all, there are many performers who are the kind of live type. The more people are on the scene, the more excited they are.

The more excited they are, the better they perform.

No one knows what kind of music these people will eventually perform.

These performers made mistakes, which has little to do with them.

But these performers performed at a god-level scene, and if they did not record it successfully, it would be a big deal!

Therefore, everyone's expression was extremely serious.

The head of the staff looked at the busy staff, and then looked at the people who were gradually entering and sitting in their seats, then turned and left the stage and walked backstage.

He opened the door to the backstage, and opposite was He Shen's lounge.

There were three people standing at the door.

One was obviously a student, and there were two more mature Chinese.

He walked up to the two more mature Chinese, nodded slightly at them, and spoke in relatively standard English.

"The stage is almost ready, please notify Professor He Shen, the time is almost up!"

Zhang Wei looked at the staff who came over, and nodded in relatively standard English: "Okay, I will notify Professor He!"

"Thank you! Thank you all for your hard work!"

The person in charge bowed slightly to the three people, then turned and left, and continued to supervise on the stage.

He wanted to ensure that everything was foolproof and that there would be no mistakes.

After watching the person in charge leave, Zhang Wei looked at his colleague Li Hua and the timid student, with a slight smile on his face. He stretched out his hand and hooked Li Hua's neck and smiled: "What? Who will go to call Teacher He? You or me?"

"You go." Li Hua's expression did not change at all, and he said casually: "Teacher He Shen should be resting inside, he won't blame us for disturbing him."

"Of course I know this, but do you really not want to have the opportunity to show your face in front of Teacher He Shen? Maybe Teacher He will teach you a lesson?"

Zhang Wei looked at Li Hua and couldn't help but smirked, but seeing that Li Hua's expression did not change, he couldn't help but pouting, revealing a bored look.

"How come we have been together for so long, every time I tease you, you ignore me, I'm so bored to perform a one-man show!"

"So are you going to call? If you don't want to go, then I'll go." Li Hua's tone did not change at all.

Zhang Wei was even more helpless, shook his head, waved his hand and said: "Okay, okay, I'll call, I'll call!"

Zhang Wei turned around, looked at the closed door, and knocked three times gently.

Dongdongdong...

There was no response in the room, Zhang Wei was not surprised, just stood at the door and spoke in a normal voice.

"Teacher He, the time is almost up, it's time to get ready to go on stage!"

There was still no sound in the room.

Zhang Wei also looked indifferent.

There were so many things that He Shen ignored them, but He Shen was never late and would not do anything less.

He was not worried at all that He Shen's concert would be postponed.

So, he stood there, just standing there stupidly, waiting for He Shen to appear.

There were more and more people in the concert hall, and those who had been standing outside drinking water and chatting before also entered the concert hall, waiting for the concert to start.

As the time was getting closer and closer to the concert, Zhang Wei gradually felt something was wrong.

He frowned and looked at the door in front of him that had no response, hesitating whether to knock again.

The door opened!

He Shen pushed the door open with his brows furrowed, glanced at the three people at the door, and just nodded slightly without saying anything.

He walked slowly to the backstage of the concert hall and stopped.

The staff was already standing there, with their hands on the door handle, ready to open the door at any time.

The clock on the side moved forward bit by bit, without a single pause.

"Teacher He..." Zhang Wei looked at He Shen, then at Li Hua and Wei Zijie who were looking at him with encouraging eyes, and without any hesitation, he grinned and said to He Shen.

"Teacher He, come on!"

He Shen's body suddenly paused, he turned his head to look at the three people behind him, looking at their immature musical temperament, the corners of his mouth slightly pulled, revealing a smile, with an almost invisible amplitude, he nodded slightly.

"Thank you."

After saying that, He Shen didn't know what he was thinking, he looked at the three people behind him, his eyes gradually became extremely firm.

He spoke slowly in a very affirmative tone, not knowing whether it was to the three people behind him or to himself.

"And next..."

"I'll play, you listen!"

After saying that, He Shen turned his sight back to the entrance of the concert hall, looked at the staff standing on the side, and nodded to him very firmly.

Click!

The time came to nine o'clock on time!

The staff stretched out their hands and pushed open the door of the concert hall.

Wow!

The applause rang out!

The whole concert hall was full!

The lights on the stage were extremely bright, shining on the dark piano, which looked particularly holy!

He Shen listened to the applause outside the concert hall, looked at the piano on the stage, straightened his clothes, and took a deep breath.
