Tune and Play
Upon hearing my voice, Marina Momojo couldn't help but frown. I knew that when a person was practicing the piano, especially when they were getting better, they would be very angry when they were interrupted. I had encountered such a situation before.
I quickly explained,
"Senior Taocheng, when I heard you play just now, I realized that the piano strings were a little loose, and there was a huge deviation in the pitch. I used to learn tuning. Can you let me adjust the pitch of the piano? Otherwise, this piano would really be a pity.”
Momojima Rina frowned as she looked at the young man in front of her. A piano like this could not be adjusted by just anyone. What was even more unbelievable was that the person who said this was a child who was no more than 13 or 14 years old. What a joke. Putting aside the fact that such a young child could not tune, it was a little unreliable to say that he could distinguish the pitch. Even she herself could not tell. Could he really tell? Could he be causing trouble here?
I knew that she still didn't believe me, so I quickly went up to her, stretched out my fingers, and pressed down on a key. With a loud " dong " sound, because I used quite a bit of strength, I amplified the sound, and the part that was naturally out of tune was also amplified. Then, I pressed a few more keys in a row, and Momojima Rina's brows gradually relaxed. She looked at me in surprise.
"Younger Brother Komuro, I didn't expect you to be able to tell. I thought you were just messing around.”
She carefully sized me up for a while before asking with uncertainty,
"Komuro, this piano is expensive. If you break it, it will be terrible. I'd better inform the school to find a professional lawyer.”
I looked at Marina of Peach City and said confidently,"
"Senior Taocheng, I've been tuning myself since I started playing the piano at the age of five. Even a professional tuning lawyer isn't as sensitive as my ears.”
Seeing that I was so certain, Marina thought for a moment and nodded.
"Alright, alright. Just take it that I'm as crazy as you. Even if it's really broken, at most, I'll go home and get Dad to beat me up. You can adjust it. To be honest, I've never seen a lawyer adjust the temperament.”
I looked at her and couldn't help but change my opinion of her. I originally thought that it would take some effort to convince her, but I didn't expect her to agree so easily. If I were in his shoes, I would never trust a child like that.
I took over the position of Momojo Marina and played all eighty-eight keys twice. After listening to it, I confirmed that twenty-two keys were out of tune.
The structure of a piano was basically the same. Even if there were differences, they were only different in form. In essence, they were all the same. As the saying went, one method could lead to ten thousand methods. It was not difficult to imitate a cat.
Tuning was actually very simple. It was just a matter of tightening a few screws and tightening a few strings. After adjusting it, he played the 88 keys a few more times to find the intonation deviation and fine-tune it again.
Sitting in front of the piano, since the pitch had been adjusted, it was necessary to play a piano to test it. Inadvertently, he saw the score on the piano stand. 'hungarian rhapsody, op. 2? I couldn't help but look back at Peach City's Marina. You really can't judge a book by its cover. She's really an unexpected girl to be able to play " Hongyan Rhapsody." Liszt's " Hongyan Rhapsody " was known for its difficult piano skills and the style of the Hongyan people.
It was a huge test of a pianist's strength. Even a well-known pianist would not dare to say that he could play it well. Since she dared to play it, her skills and basic skills must be quite solid.
Forget it, I'll just play this song. I held an indifferent attitude in my heart. After taking a light breath, I moved my hand.
The whole song was composed of ten main topics, one after the other, in a slow to fast pace. The first theme was the prelude, which was slow, heavy, broad, and laid out like an epic.
My fingers moved slowly, as if they were as heavy as the sound of a zither. My breathing coordinated with the seventy-two acupuncture points in my body and began to tremble.
When I played the piano this time, I felt a different feeling from before. It was relaxed and comfortable. The cultivation method that originally required me to focus and calm my mind to perfectly coordinate my breathing and vibration was now completed in a meaningless and sluggish manner. After breaking through, it was indeed very different from before. It seemed that my breathing technique could be upgraded again, and the effects of my cultivation in the future would be even stronger.
The second theme entered the andante, and the emotions of the prelude were described affectionately: When the music turned to the high notes and changed to a major key, the mood became clear, as if the tightly knitted eyebrows began to open.
My mood matched with the jumping notes. Every song had its own meaning. When I adjusted my breathing to vibrate the acupuncture points of my body, the emotions and meaning of the piano itself were more clearly expressed. The keys under my hand flew agilely with my fingertips, and the touching music flowed out. At this moment, I was both the performer and the listener!
Then, the third theme, which was surrounded by decorative sounds, was even brighter: Later, this theme was dressed up with gorgeous techniques and developed into an even more beautiful piece of music. Then the music returned to the first theme, the second theme, and then the first theme in the lowest register. It stopped at a rich, deep major triad, forming the first large interval. In the silence, the third theme reappeared in the high notes at a brisk speed, with a transparent timbre like a silver bell.
The fourth theme appeared under the accompaniment of the sixteen-note persistant and the bass jump: This was cheerful folk dance music. At first, it seemed like there were only one or two people, but later on, there were more and more people. Finally, everyone was involved, dancing quickly, powerfully, and crazily.
The fifth theme appeared. In the wild dance, there were various contrasting movements, as if they were getting carried away. This was the sixth theme with light footsteps, followed by the seventh theme with the clown doing funny actions. The eighth theme of jumping; The ninth theme that everyone was shouting in unison came from the comical seventh theme. Then, it was the tenth topic.
These motifs were like a rapidly spinning lantern, forming a kaleidoscope-like scene. There was another pause before the end. It was a short break on a high note after the frenzy. After taking a deep breath, the tenth theme, which was the finale, rolled from the bass area. It quickly swept through the wide range of the song with an overwhelming momentum and ended the whole song.
I let out a long breath and gently retracted my hand. It was really a good piano and also a rare piece of good music. It resonated with the breathing rhythm of the 72 acupuncture points in my body. Not only did the speed of absorbing the external energy increase, but the amount of energy I could absorb also increased from the original 1% to 15%. Overall, it seemed to have increased by 20 times. After the song was completed, I only felt that my entire body was clear and light, as if I was flying.
My first performance after my breakthrough was such a fantastic result. There was no doubt about the joy in my heart.
It was only then that I remembered that there was someone else behind me. While I was happy, I was also reflecting on myself. Once I touched the piano, I would forget everything around me. I needed to pay more attention in the future.
When I turned to look at Marina, I realized that she was staring at me with her mouth wide open in shock.
I looked at myself strangely, but there was nothing special about me. At this moment, Peach City's Marina seemed to have reacted, but her expression was even more excited than before. She grabbed my shoulder and said incoherently,
" Takama-san Komuro... How did you know how to play the second piece of the 'Austrian Rhapsody?' How did you do it? It's unbelievable, unbelievable..."
It was only then that I understood why she was so excited. Indeed, Rhapsody wasn't created by Liszt, but Liszt was the first to come to mind. 'Rhapsody' meant freedom, unrestrained, and unrestrained. Liszt wrote 19 pieces of " Hongyan Rhapsody " and one piece of " Spanish Rhapsody." These works all used folk tunes or folk style tunes as the theme. They were composed in a multi-section way, fully displaying the "eighteen martial arts" of piano skills and galloping the imagination of the composer. These works became a huge test of the strength of the pianist with their difficult piano skills and unique national style.
In fact, many of Liszt's works were known for their extraordinary difficulty, such as the twelve 'Super Etudes' and six 'Paganini Etudes.' Although they were called etudes, they were all concert-level pieces. Even famous pianists dared not boast that they could play them perfectly. It was no wonder that Rina was so surprised.
However, I didn't have much of a reaction to this. Ever since I found out that my piano music could resonate with the audience, I had been planning. I didn't know what kind of restriction that resonance would have, but I hoped to cause as many people's bodies to have that kind of reaction as possible. To me, strengthening a person's physique would naturally increase their chances of survival. Even if it's just to increase the possibility, that's what I'm trying to achieve. That's why I need to be famous and have more audiences.
