Pipa line

The judging panel quickly issued a notice to change the order of the contestants. This notice aroused surprise, worry, or puzzled discussions among the audience, but none of these had much impact on the judging panel's decision. .As the start time approached, the announcer's sweet voice rang out on time, "Star Music Academy School Music Competition, the fourth self-selected repertoire competition is the last selection competition, and now begins."

The lights in the concert hall gradually dimmed.Because it was the last selection competition, the change in mentality made everyone look forward to today's competition.After the buzzing discussion in the auditorium completely subsided, the announcement broadcast sounded again.

"The first contestant, Class B, Grade [-], Music Department, Azuma Yuki. The competition piece is Rachmaninoff's "Voice Practice"."

Teak in a white tuxedo calmly walked to the center of the stage amidst the low-pitched screams of the support team and stood up.

I didn't expect that I could still stand here now, I didn't expect that I... actually succeeded.

He lifted the silver flute to his lips.

On the night before the formalities for studying abroad were about to be completed, when the stern grandmother was giving him a routine lesson, telling him to be careful not to lose the face of the Teak family after going abroad, he looked more and more clearly under the light The old man's gray hair and wrinkles around his eyes, for some reason, reveals a trace of exhaustion and loneliness.When he came to his senses, he had already told his grandmother what Weiming had said to him, and even he himself was taken aback.At that time, he was even prepared for the next storm.But I didn't expect that after the old lady teak looked at him in surprise, she was unexpectedly silent for a long time.

"Is this what you mean... Azuma?"

Azuma Yuzuki trembled slightly with his hands on his knees.

When grandma usually called his name, she always used a cold and short tone. How could she have been so soft and hesitant?

"...はい, Zu...grandma."

"..." The old man's eyes flashed with astonishment.

——Since he became sensible, he never called her that again.

Gorgeous and elegant melodies echoed throughout the concert hall.Azuma Yuzuki felt that his soul had been split into two halves, one half was calmly controlling his body to perform on stage, while the other was silently floating in mid-air, in a trance.

He saw the old man's eyelids tremble heavily, and the two sat opposite each other in silence for a long time.I don't know how long it took before the old man waved him back to his room, saying that he had to think about it again.When he left, he looked at the thin figure of the old man under the light, only to realize that she was really old.

Then the next morning, he received a notice from the housekeeper, saying that the old lady teak had agreed to his request, and his plan to study abroad could be postponed.

"His performance is as gorgeous as ever." A teacher on the judging panel shook the pen in his hand: "However, compared with the previous competitions, the timbre this time has a bit more depth."

"That's right," a judge next to him nodded and said, "Not only that, but besides being slender, his playing also has a feeling of grandeur and expansion."

And all of this is thanks to you, Weiming.

The full long note draws a successful conclusion to the music.Azuma teak put down the flute slowly, and smiled quietly at the audience.

It wasn’t until I returned to Yokohama and competed on the stage that I finally had a real feeling, and I could finally say something to you——

--I am back.

As soon as Yumu returned to the backstage, Huoyuan rushed up to give him a hug: "Youmu, I'm so happy."

"Huh?" Teak smiled and said, "What's wrong?"

"I don't know what to say. I just feel that you are really back." Huoyuan rubbed the back of his head in embarrassment, and then couldn't help saying it again: "It's great that you can come back It’s great; we’re able to compete together again, it’s great.”

Facing this straightforward friend who has been in the same class for three years, Yuki couldn't help but drop the fake disguise at this time, and put on a sincere and warm smile: "Thank you, Huoyuan."

"The second contestant, class B of the third grade of the music department, Huoyuan Kazuki. The competition piece is Holst's "Planet Suite IV: Jupiter""

"It's your turn to play." Yuki patted him on the shoulder: "Come on."

"Hai!"

Huoyuan Kazuki quietly looked at the trumpet in his hand, and suddenly smiled.

Yes, he likes trumpets.I liked it when I heard my seniors for the first time when I was in elementary school, I liked it when my cheeks were sore from practicing too much, and I still like it when I stand on the stage and play for everyone.Therefore, he hopes to pass this music to the people he loves; he hopes to use his music to encourage people who like him and him, bring them courage and joy.

This thought has never been so clear and firm as it is now.

"Planet Suite No. [-]: Jupiter" is also known as "The Messenger of Joy".As the name suggests, this is a song that can make people feel happy.The first part is magnificent and continuous, and joyful emotions can be seen everywhere.Played by Huoyuan, the slow and powerful melody is even more refreshingly gentle and inclusive.

The corner of his mouth curled into a smile unconsciously.

"His music...is not only sonorous and powerful, but also contains bursts of warmth." Standing in the background, Kanazawa couldn't help sighing: "Hihara, he has grown a lot."

The third person to play is Donghai Shengzi. This girl who was very introverted and shy at the beginning has now been able to stand in front of the crowd and play without trembling.She continued the wonderful timbre she played in the third selection competition, playing "Clarinet Polka", which is already very lively and lively, like a spring full of flowers.Whether it is technology or expressiveness, the performance is very remarkable.

"The fourth contestant, Class B, Grade 1 of Music Department, Keiichi Shimizu. The competition piece is Bach's "Suite for Unaccompanied Cello No. [-] in G Major: Prelude""

Zhishui walked slowly onto the stage with the cello in his arms.

"Huh?" Wang Qixinwu looked at his back suspiciously: "Shisui...has he changed a piano?"

"Oh?" Kanazawa narrowed his eyes and looked at the cello carefully for a while: "It seems to be...is that a baroque cello①? Ha, playing Bach's music with a cello from the Bach era is really perfect That's right. That kid Shisui really put in a lot of effort."

The clear and transparent melody flows out from Zhishui's fingers moving up and down on the piano board. The tone of the cello is deep and soft, and the rhythm of the melody is very smooth and soothing.Zhishui's performance is very calm and simple, neither deliberately pretending to be profound, nor deliberately showing off his skills, but this style of playing unexpectedly touches people's hearts.In addition, the most important point is that, compared with playing according to the printed scores in a regular manner before, Shisui now appropriately adds his own understanding and expression when performing, making the music more unique to watch.

Just like what he said to Hino Kahoko and Weiming before, he has found his own inner, real score.

"You can do this in the first grade... That kid Shisui is not easy." Kanazawa rubbed his chin.

"Well, I'm really gratified to see the talents of the younger generation come out in large numbers." Wang Qixinwu also echoed with a smile.

"Don't speak in an old man's tone!" Kanazawa gave him a shoulder: "It's almost time, and I should call Hino back when Tsukimori finishes playing."

"Well, I see." Wang Qixinwu nodded with a good temper.

After the judges had written performance evaluations for Shisui Guiyi on the evaluation form, the announcer picked up the microphone: "The fifth contestant, Class A of the second grade of the music department, Tsukimori Ren. The competition piece is, Pa Gnini's "24 Caprices 24: Theme and Variations"

Tsuchiura, who had been standing against the wall before, subconsciously stood up straight and watched him walk up to the stage step by step.

Yue Senlian stood in the center of the stage, looking down at her violin quietly.

Before I knew it, it was already the last selection competition.

I have known her...for almost four months, right?

Four months was not enough for him to know everything about her, but it was enough to make him want to know more about her.

Recalling the initial helping each other in the face of injustice, then the maintenance of sympathy, and now the silent tacit understanding and cooperation.A certain soft part of Yuesenlian's heart seemed to be touched by an invisible hand, causing shallow ripples.Shallow, but did not disappear, but rippled away circle after circle.

Because of her, his timbre became more gentle and inclusive, more broad and far away, just like the vast and boundless sky, so beautiful that it even has a kind of shocking power.

The sound of the piano echoed and stirred in the spacious concert hall. The rhythm of 2/4 is tight but not hasty, and the short and powerful pause attracts people's full attention.Yuesenlian's playing skills are very skilled, and her expressive power is also very strong.But at this time, his performance can no longer be simply described with adjectives such as "wonderful".From his performance, the judges felt a firmness and tenderness that transcended the music and reverberated in his heart.

And all of this happened because of one person.

After finishing the performance, Yuesen returned to the backstage amidst thunderous applause.Almost immediately, he met a pair of black and lustrous eyes.

He nodded slightly to her.

"I should have said that I will accept your challenge, right?" Tsuchiura, who was standing aside, put down his hand on his chest and walked over: "Now, if you want me to say it again, I will never lose to You?"

What appeared in his eyes was obvious admiration and eagerness to try.

Regarding this, Yuesen just gave him a slightly cold look: "It's your turn to play."

"..."

He took back what he said before and said he wanted to change his mind. Sure enough, this kid Yue Senlian is still very annoying no matter what!

"The sixth contestant, Class [-], Grade [-], General Subject, Ryotaro Tsuchiura. The entry piece is Liszt's "Bell""

Tsuchiura scratched his hair in frustration and strode onto the stage.

Naturally, Tsuchiura's piano skills are nothing to criticize. In addition, due to the unique crisp sound in the high register of the piano, the effect of the bell that the music hopes to express is more obvious.Tsuchiura, who has got rid of the shackles of childhood shadow, is more open and close, and retracts freely when playing.Although the piece itself is very intense, there is a sense of delicacy in his performance.With the powerful fall of the last few accents, the performance also drew a perfect end.

"Really..." Weiming muttered softly, "It will be very stressful to play after such a performance..."

"unnecessary."

"Eh?" Weiming looked sideways at Yuesen who was standing beside her: "What did you say?"

"I said no need." Yuesen also lowered his head to look at her: "You just need to play the music that belongs to you."

"..."

There was a soft light in Yuesen's golden eyes: "Your performance always makes me look forward to it."

"..."

"The seventh contestant, Liu Weiming, Class [-], Grade [-], general subjects. The entry is Nie Er's "Golden Snake Dance""

"Hey, Liu, it's time for you to play!" After waiting for a while, Weiming didn't see any movement, Jin Ze urged: "Why are you in a daze?"

"...Ah! I'm sorry!" Weiming patted his reddish cheeks, glared at Yuesen, and quickly picked up the pipa and walked onto the stage.

She hugged the pipa and sat down on the performance stool in the center of the stage, closed her eyes and took another deep breath.When she opened her eyes again, her eyes were completely different from before.

Nie Er, "The Dance of the Golden Snake".

This is a national orchestral piece composed and adapted by Nie Er in 1934 based on the Chinese folk music "Inverted Baban".Because of its high-spirited and enthusiastic melody, it is often used in celebrations of major festivals, especially the Spring Festival.The light and cheerful music rippling from Weiming's fingertips, and the bright and uplifting lines constantly present joyful and high-spirited emotions, which makes people feel refreshed.

Although the performance is not perfect due to the use of the accompaniment tape, the sense of vitality and vitality is still vividly expressed.In the second half of the performance, the sentence length of the music is reduced layer by layer, and the speed is gradually accelerated. Coupled with the rhythm of percussion instruments such as gongs, drums, cymbals, and wooden fish, the mood of the music continues to rise until it reaches the jubilant peak. vertex.

The Spring Festival is the most important day of the year for Chinese people.After thousands of years of history, the Spring Festival is not just a festival, it also represents the expectations of the Chinese people for the new year.On this day, people pay homage to their ancestors, welcome the new year and receive blessings, and pray for a good harvest.No matter how busy the work is and how far away from home, wanderers outside will definitely rush back to their warm homes on this day to reunite with their families.

This is what Weiming thinks, the reborn thing.

The dexterous fingers move quickly on the product, and the rich Chinese national characteristics and lively life atmosphere also rush to the face.The cheerful melody makes people feel like they are in the happy scene of dancing dragons and loud gongs and drums when celebrating the Spring Festival.If the audience in the auditorium was shocked by Tsuchiura's performance of "The Bell", then now they are intoxicated by the song "Golden Snake Dance" played by Weiming.

After playing the last bar of the score, Weiming stood up with a smile and bowed to the audience, and walked briskly backstage.

"How is it?" She grabbed the sleeve of Yuesen who was closest to the stage, raised her head and asked eagerly.Little did they know that she looked like a child who was pulling adults to ask for praise after doing something proud, which made Yuesen's lips curl into a faint smile: "Well, not bad."

"~(≧▽≦)/~" Weiming touched his nose in satisfaction and stood aside, not speaking.

Jin Ze saw the interaction between the two of them, and gave a "tsk" amusedly: "Then, the last one to play is——"

"The eighth contestant, Class [-], Grade [-], General Studies, Kahoko Hino. The entry is Schubert's "Hail Mary""

Everyone in the background looked at Hino in unison.

Hino smiled and took Shoji's hand: "Then, let's go~"

"Wait a minute!" Tian Yu grabbed her: "You haven't changed your clothes yet!"

"Ah, this." Hino looked down at the school uniform she was wearing, "This is fine." She added with a smile: "After all, this is me, isn't it?"

"..." Huoyuan was stunned for a moment, his brows and eyes softened instantly: "It really fits your style."

"Come on!" Tsuchiura said

"I got it!" Hino smiled and stepped onto the stage in response to Tsuchiura.

"Eh? Why are you wearing a school uniform?"

"I've heard the sound of the piano when she practiced before... Is it okay for general subjects?"

"Look at her accompanist...it doesn't seem to be the one from before?"

"Pfft, so even her accompanist couldn't stand such a bad level and resigned?"

It's time to start, my dear violin.

Hino put the piano lightly on his shoulder.

A slightly jerky melody sounded slowly.In all honesty, Hino's performance is not outstanding, but the emotions revealed in her performance are as moving as ever.Although the unpretentious melody has no skills to speak of, its unique charm made all the people in the audience who had doubts, disdain or gloat shut their mouths and listened quietly.

In these short months, many things have happened.Miming watched Hino concentrating on playing the violin on the stage, and quietly thought about it.

In the beginning, I came here as a transfer student.The unfamiliar environment and unfamiliar faces, although she didn't show it on the surface, she was still at a loss and at a loss in her heart.

If it wasn't for this intramural music competition, I probably wouldn't be able to get involved so quickly, right?If it wasn't for this intramural music competition, I wouldn't be able to... know these people, right?

In the past few months, there have been joys, sorrows, fears, and stability in getting along with these people, but now that she thinks about it, no matter what kind of memories, she feels precious.

She is grateful for the many bonds brought about by this music competition.

——The school music competition of Star Academy has officially ended.

However, no one knew that in an inconspicuous corner of the concert hall, there was a figure standing there all the time.

"This piano sound..."

"It's really... outrageous."

The author has something to say: I finished the exam!The exam is over, the exam is over! ! ~(≧▽≦)/~~! ! !Cough cough cough, so the next week will enter the daily update state hehehe, do you love me or not =W=~

Thank you Jinmao for the long comments of mines and floating water. Can you imagine the moment when I turned on the computer to refresh the review when I was about to die? QAQ is incoherent. Lei will always feel flattered when he receives a long comment, how about one~>3<~

In fact, I have read everyone’s comments carefully. Some places are really not good as you said (such as Arnold, such as Weiming’s reaction when the teak wood was blackened), and I will pay attention to it in the future. ~Thank you~

So, this is the end of the plot of Golden Strings 1~ Who do you think that figure will be→3→?

Bow your head and point your fingers... I would like to ask everyone one thing, if possible, can you try to use the website to buy V?Because for example, the author can get about 8 points if you buy the V at 5 points in a chapter on the website, but you can only get 4 points if you use a mobile phone, so...but it’s up to everyone’s convenience. I'm so happy =W=~

①The baroque cello is also called the ancient cello. Compared with the modern cello, the sound is softer and more refined, and the temperament is more noble and elegant, but at the same time the volume is weaker.In addition, the bow of the Baroque cello is shorter than the modern bow, and the bow is held differently, so it cannot play explosive and fast-paced pieces.All in all, using a baroque cello to play Rabach's unaccompanied suite, especially in an open and echoing place, is simply a magic weapon. Is there any wood~=W=~
