Chapter 416: The Magical Brush(4/5)
Having said that, no matter how many piano songs there are, most people think that "Adirina by the Water" is destined to be the highest masterpiece of Zero Hour.
In fact, many people in the audience know "Canon in D Major".
In 1680, Johann Pachelbel composed the Canon, which became popular for hundreds of years.
What's more, the 8 bars of the canon formed a musical spell that was repeated over and over again in musical works of different periods.
Perhaps so, in the hearts of many fans, "Adelina by the Waterside" is still stunning and touching.
"Nietzsche once said: 'Life without music will be a mistake.' I am convinced of this. When I am happy or sad, there will always be a melody that goes with me."
Kurosawa Hikaru did not nod or shake his head, but raised his hands and started talking.
Many people who spoke nodded in agreement with these words.
"Would life without music be a mistake..."
Ninomiya Naoki was thoughtful when he heard these words.
He had also seen Nietzsche's words before.
If it were before this performance, he would have sneered at it, because he felt that even if there was no music on human beings, it would not have any impact.
But now, he has changed his mind slightly.
""Adirina by the Water" is my favorite song. Its melody and the memories it inspires fascinate me deeply. It is really good. But "Canon Variations" shocked me
It is unparalleled...please listen carefully."
Kurosawa Hikaru knew that his remarks just now would cause dissatisfaction among some fans. He tried every means to make up for it with words, but in the end it was all in vain and he simply used the facts to speak for themselves.
After that, he turned around and walked to the piano.
This time, his steps are no longer elegant and calm, he is even a little eager... He can't wait to bring the best music in his mind to everyone.
He still remembered that in his previous life, on his way to an Internet cafe, he saw a middle-aged woman dressed in elegant clothes, sitting in front of a piano arranged by a business, playing "Canon" selflessly.
That day, he was stunned, forgetting about netizens waiting for him to play black, and stood there and listened to the whole song.
He forgot the noise of the crowd, as if time had stood still.
This piece is very bland, with no exciting rhythm and no strong emotional changes.
In fact, he had appreciated the charm of the piano long before "Adelina by the Water".
It was just that at that time, he did not look up the stories related to Canon, nor did he listen to it repeatedly, but that melody was forever engraved in the depths of his soul.
While the audience was watching, Hikaru Kurosawa began to play "Canon Variations"
The moment his hands fell and the sound of the piano sounded, all the audience in the large concert hall were stunned.
Warmth, comfort, healing, tranquility.
As Ling Shi's hands played softly and tenderly on the keyboard, the sound of the piano, which was like the sound of nature, struck directly into the soul.
In an instant, it was as if a gust of wind blew, bringing the gentleness of the world and calming all the impetuousness.
The moment the main melody sounded, everyone was impressed.
"What's this?"
Even Ninomiya Naoki, who normally disdained music, had his eyes widened and held his breath at this moment.
Quiet and peaceful, it's like touching the softest place deep in your heart.
The gurgling water is wonderful to hear.
Everyone was staring blankly at Ling Shi on the stage, watching him play the most beautiful music in the world.
In fact, many musicians have adapted the "Canon in D Major". Its melody is suitable for most instruments, and the versions are too numerous to list.
Nowadays, Master Zero Hour's arrangement of "Canon in D Major" relies on the charm of the piano, the king of instruments, to show the best music.
Finally, the song ended and the whole place was silent.
What's more, some people even shed tears while listening.
Either because of sensibility, or because it touches the softest place deep in my heart.
"Master Zero Hour is right!!"
"This is truly the best music."
"It sounds so good."
When the silence passed, the whole place was in an uproar.
Needless to say, such a divine performance directly cleared everyone's doubts.
"Is this genius?"
"What a stroke of genius!"
Many pianists fell to the ground in admiration. When they looked at Ling Shi on the stage again, they felt as if they were gods.
In fact, during the performance of the first nine piano pieces, they had already been impressed and even changed their ideas about music and piano.
However, the advent of "Canon Variations" adapted by Zero Hour completely destroyed their bodies and minds.
They can even predict what changes tonight's piano recital will bring to the piano world.
It was destined to be a huge earthquake, a natural disaster that could destroy everything and overthrow everything.
"Pah, pah, pah!"
Finally, after playing ten piano pieces, Kurosawa Hikaru stood up and took a few steps forward, bowed and thanked the audience for their cheers and applause.
"Zero hour!"
Just then, someone suddenly howled.
"Zero hour!"
This voice was like turning on a switch, and all the audience cheered excitedly, shouting the name of the person on the stage, as if they were watching a hero.
Everyone's reactions and feelings are different, but thousands of words turned into applause.
"Finally applauded?"
Ninomiya Chie was also applauding. She also saw her husband beside her applauding quietly and couldn't help but think.
True excellence, even from enemies, is worthy of admiration.
The applause this time was so exaggerated that it lasted for several minutes before gradually subsided.
This is just the reaction of more than 2,000 spectators. If the venue were changed to a larger stage, it would only be even more terrifying.
"Actually, my repertoire is not large enough to support the first half, and this is the last piece of ten piano pieces. I think it is the most appropriate way to end the first half."
After waiting for a long time, Kurosawa Hikaru waited until the audience's excitement was almost exhausted before he straightened up and said.
"Is this the last song?..."
After hearing this, some viewers immediately felt sorry.
The happy time is always short-lived. They originally thought that this triple feast of vision, hearing, and soul would last until the end of the second half.
"In the second half, everyone will request songs. As long as there are no copyright issues, whether it is a classical piece or one of mine, I can perform it for you."
Faced with everyone's disappointment, Kurosawa Hikaru had expected it and added.
With a proficient piano, he can play all classic piano music without even practicing.
For example, for "The Bell", he didn't even need to look for the music score. The music score was already engraved in his mind.
"Can any song be used?"
One audience member was bolder and started talking loudly through the air.
"It doesn't matter what song it is."
Kurosawa Hikaru nodded affirmatively.
"hiss……"
Upon hearing this answer, the professional pianists in the audience took a breath of air.
This is too full of words. If it were another person, they would definitely treat it as a joke when they heard this.
But the person who said this was Zero Hour, and they couldn't even doubt it.
"Then let's play the ten pieces from the first half again. We haven't heard enough yet."
At this moment, Kitajima Shizuka was very courageous. As one of the representatives of the fan base, she said loudly.
"I want to hear "The Bell""
"I want to listen to "Adelina by the Water""
"Master Zero Hour, please, I really want to listen to "Canon Variations" again."
"Autumn Whispers"
""Dance of Flowers""
