The world's number one pianist

"Hey, hey! Chopin! Wait for me! Don't walk so fast."

He Shen's eyes went dark, and when he woke up, some people's voices suddenly came to his ears. ReadМ

They were all calling Chopin, trying to show their closeness to Chopin.

"Chopin, what are you going to play in the music salon tonight? Which works are they?"

"Yes, we are all looking forward to your performance tonight."

"Tell us, what are you going to play tonight?"

Chopin slowed down slightly, waited for his friends behind him, and said with a smile.

"Nocturnes, I had already composed three nocturnes before I came to Paris. They are my most proud works!"

He looked up at the busiest street at that time, and his eyes couldn't help but reveal a hint of admiration and envy.

But behind this envy, there is pride.

I am proud that I have established roots in this land.

He Shen felt this feeling very keenly.

The friend standing next to Chopin looked at Chopin and couldn't help but admire.

"Yes, you can be regarded as the most popular musician in Paris now. You can play nocturne. I really don't know which lady can get this honor."

"You all know her, Mary."

Chopin smiled, and when he talked about Mary, his tone was obviously much softer, and there was a hint of love in his voice.

"Mary? Could it be Mrs. Marie Priele? Wow..."

Friends showed a hint of envy.

That was the jewel of Paris Vanity Fair. They envied Chopard very much, but they had no way to replace Chopard.

Chopin's nocturnes are basically known to many people at the Vanity Fair in Paris, and many people have carefully understood the composition of those nocturnes.

According to Chopin's previous description, "Nocturne" originated from the evening prayer songs of the British Catholic Church in the 18th century. It is elegant in style, full of romantic color, has a strong singing melody, and is often characterized by contemplation and melancholy.

It was later adapted by Irish composer J. Field.

However, the most famous writer of nocturnes is Chopin, who is extremely popular throughout Paris!

The main reason why it is called "Nocturne" is that this piece is usually performed at night.

Because the nocturne is very singing and extremely romantic, this series of works quickly became popular throughout Paris.

Although many people criticize Chopin's music for not being traditional enough, it is obvious...

Most of these people are jealous.

Many people have studied this series of works, but no one has written a nocturne that surpasses Chopin.

Chopin took his friends to wander around on the street, with a gentle smile on his lips, as if he could imagine the wonderful situation tonight.

Soon, the time came to night, and countless people were sitting around the living room of a large house. In the center of the living room was an extremely ancient piano.

an Erard piano.

Chopin touched the subtle lines on the piano, and then quickly ran a scale.

There is no other feeling.

However, the onlookers suddenly frowned at the depth of his thoughts.

The rebound of this piano is very slow and very heavy. It is not the kind of piano that makes people feel very comfortable.

Could it be that... this kind of nocturne needs to be played on a piano with a relatively slow rebound?

Soon, his thoughts were instantly shattered by Chopin's words.

A man stood up from the crowd and walked towards Chopin with a smile. After the two hugged each other, the man patted the piano in front of Chopin and asked.

"Hey, Chopin, why are you still using this antique? This piano's rebound is so slow, it should have been replaced a long time ago."

"Camille Pleyel, don't be joking. If you give me money, I will definitely replace this piano immediately."

Chopin responded with a smile, without any embarrassment that he was too poor.

After all, in this music salon, almost everyone knows that Chopin is relatively poor and does not have much money on him.

It becomes more or less a habit.

What Chopin didn't expect was that Bolie agreed readily.

"Okay, okay, I'll give you money, how about you buy a new piano?"

"Okay, you give me a new piano, and I will play on your new piano now."

Chopin joked with a smile, but he didn't expect Bolie to suddenly become serious and clapped his hands directly.

"Come, bring us all the gift for our great pianist, Chopin, today's surprise!"

Wow!

Everyone applauded instantly, and several servants immediately stepped forward and carefully moved an extremely advanced piano at the time and placed it in the center of the party hall.

Bollieu patted the cover of the piano with his hand, raised his eyebrows at Chopin, and said with a smile.

"How's it going? Give it a try, are you satisfied?"

Chopin immediately sat down and ran through the knots quickly.

He Shen felt that although the rebound of this piano was a little worse than that of modern pianos, it was obvious that the feeling of this piano was very close to what Chopin wanted.

Chopin immediately stood up and bowed extremely seriously.

"Bolieyi, thank you."

"No, there is no need to be polite between us!"

Bolieyi took two steps back, waved to everyone, and called loudly.

"Friends, let us once again welcome our great pianist, Mr. Chopin, to play his most beautiful work, the Nocturne!"

Wow!

The applause rang out again, Chopin looked up at Poliye, and then at Marie Plière, who was sitting in the distance and smiling at him, and his heart could not help but warm up.

He held the edge of the piano with his left hand, raised his right hand suddenly, and after it was level with his body, he drew an arc in front of him, stopped at his lower abdomen, and bowed to everyone.

"Chopin, Nocturne in E flat major, to... Marie Plière"

After the voice fell, everyone in the hall first booed, and then all the voices disappeared. They looked at Chopin very quietly, their eyes full of expectations.

The same was true for Marie Plière in the distance. She straightened her proud figure and picked up her white feather fan to block herself, but her smile could not be covered by the feather fan at all.

Chopin raised his hand and then slowly fell down.

A very pure voice came out of the piano.

The night was extremely quiet.

And in this dark night, the piano sounds like particles gradually connected into one, like fireflies in the summer night, which warmed people's hearts.

Quiet and beautiful.

It narrated Chopin's infinite love.

The slow and peaceful andante tempo chanted a beautiful, song-like melody.

The theme melody was very gentle and soft, as if it was telling something gently, sometimes calm, sometimes a little excited.

The music section with not very sharp contrast, with a slightly contemplative and lyrical atmosphere, reflects the tranquility of "night".

Everything was so beautiful, everything Chopin thought of in his heart was all engraved in He Shen's heart.

The complex texture with scattered chords as the main body, it is harmonious and tacitly matched with the main melody.

Scattered but not chaotic, gathering and dispersing are appropriate;

Sometimes, it also forms a sharp contrast in timbre and sound with the main melody, making this "Nocturne in E-flat Major" more full of emotions.

Suddenly, in the third to last measure, a series of extremely passionate thirty-second notes flashed in the high pitch of the piano, and the string melody of twelve identical ornamental patterns gradually became stronger and weaker.

In the end, the whole song ended with the chord inner tone of the major triad, so that all the melodies ended in this incomparable silence.

Until Chopin raised his hand, no one noticed.

Chopin looked at Marie who was immersed in the work in the distance, and the smile on the corner of his mouth could not be concealed at all.

He may have a very perfect night tonight.

Chopin followed Marie back home and gently pushed away the veil...
