Please, come home and practice the piano

Chapter 1097 357. Czerny's Night Talk
He drew his sword and shouted "Awesome", which made everyone's heart tremble.

Are you sure it's not for the sake of show effect?!

Sister Mu!? This complaint is a bit too harsh!
This octave!
This chord!
This speed!

Such momentum!
This is what everyone actually heard!
Seeing a series of question marks lighting up in the live broadcast room, Lao Tang felt uneasy. He also felt that Mu Xin had lost his sense of proportion. Just as he was about to smooth things over, he saw Mu Xin standing up.

"What are you doing?"

Mu Xin got up and it was fine. The public screen seemed to have taken medicine. The "?" that had been clapping for a while suddenly turned into "!".

[Draw Your Sword, Dad] shouted excitedly again: "Sister Mu is going to perform her talent show!"

At this moment, Mu Xin's cute height was no longer the focus of everyone's attention. Haitao stood up and took the live camera.

The scene changes and follows Mu Xin to the grand piano behind the four people.

In the main camera, the black and white keyboard was right in front of everyone. Mu Xin's small hands clenched and tightened their fists in the camera, "Ding!"

The next second, there was a sudden and sudden sound of piano playing. Looking at the keyboard again, the white and tender little fist that was clenched in the last second was now running wildly on the keyboard!

The majestic and violent sound stream, the key touches that were like the cracking of metal and stone, and the sense of oppression created by the rapid crescendo, instantly made the live broadcast room reach a boiling point!
The dense octaves of the violent storm are showing every live viewer what speed is, what momentum is, what distinct particles are, and what cleanliness is!

All kinds of "awesome" have been typed on the public screen at this moment, and people who understand have seen the strength of Piano Classroom No. 4 in a more concrete way.

Although this level of performance is nothing to brag about in the small domestic professional circle, if it is placed in a piano training institution, even if it is a training institution in a first-tier city, this level is already at the level of a great priest.

Even the level of "Draw the Sword, Daddy" is enough to make the so-called professional teachers in some institutions far behind.

As for those who don’t understand or don’t understand very well, Sister Mu’s comments on drawing the sword seemed to have been too lenient.

There is no way, there is no harm without comparison.

The hierarchy of piano skill has always been so strict and sometimes even ruthless.

Technology does serve the purpose of emotional processing, but you have to have the technology first.

Who the hell has no emotions? Fei Ge in front of the screen is about to overflow.
-
Lao Wei: “It’s better than the last time I played it live.”

Boss X: "Where did this guy get this teacher?"
-
living room.

Old Li couldn't help but want to call Xiaoche out to listen, but the music ended there.

"The girl plays the guitar really well."

Old Li was just sighing when he heard the piano music in the study stop.

After a while, Xiaoche walked out of the study. It was time for her to do her homework.

"Grandpa, I should do my homework."

"Well, would you like to take a break?"

"No rest."

Although he said he didn't want to rest, the car still trotted over following the sound from Lao Li's cell phone.

Old Li smiled and said nothing, then turned the screen towards the car.

"whee."

I came over here just to take a look at what Teacher Tang was talking about regarding waist strength.
-
A minute ago, just when Mu Xin finished playing and was about to stand up, Lao Tang shouted, "Don't be anxious," and asked him to stay in front of the piano.

Taking advantage of Mu Xin's performance just now, Lao Tang used Mu Xin's own experience to extend his explanation of the core body issues when playing octaves.

"The waist is the fulcrum, and the upper body should be kept stable in sitting position. The spine should be upright and not overly tense, especially when running octaves quickly, body support is the key."

[Biscuit: Learned]

【Ruby: The useful information is here again! 】

[The plane can't fly: Sister Mu is so cute]

There are always people who don't listen to the lectures seriously, but it's really not Mu Xin's fault.

While cooperating with Lao Tang's explanation, Mu Xin switched back and forth between correct and incorrect demonstrations. Occasionally, he could not keep up with Lao Tang's rhythm, resulting in the sound and picture being out of sync.

"Brother, do you think I'm a robot?"

Lao Tang smiled and said, "Okay, okay, go slowly, everyone, pay attention, your arms should hang naturally, and your shoulder blades should be relaxed to avoid shrugging. This step is the key to ensuring smooth power flow."

After Mu Xin finished comparing the two demonstrations, Lao Tang's summary was simple: "The octave is actually not that difficult, nor is it that mysterious. The most important thing is to relax your body. The things on your fingers and wrists vary from person to person. The general direction is to follow coordination and nature. There is no fixed format. Practice more and experience more. Experience is important, but you can't practice blindly, otherwise you will get hurt easily."

As he spoke, Lao Tang approached Haitao and picked up the phone on the piano to take a look. "Yeah, there will be courses in the later stages of Octave. I will talk about it specifically then. I will also talk about the wrist in detail. Teacher, please save the child. It's too painful. Uh——"

Lao Tang looked at Li Ang outside the camera. Li Ang nodded and raised his hand to indicate that that was about all for today.

"Okay, let's talk about the wrist problem. Sorry to those viewers who are not connected to the microphone, today's microphone connection activity ends here. If you have any questions, you can continue to send a private message, or we will see you on Saturday night."

Having said that, Lao Tang stopped looking at the feedback. This kind of interaction certainly cannot satisfy everyone.

"I will teach you a method for your wrist. You need to use force and relax at the same time. What does that mean? You need to consciously keep the two in balance at all times. Please note that this is done consciously and actively."

[Ouch! Yoyoyo: WTF]

[Zhang Pangzi is not fat: conscious and proactive]

"If we just try too hard to control it, the movements will be stiff. I don't need to explain more. The sound will be sharp and hard, and the arms will not be able to handle it. They will get tired after practicing for a few times. Friends who have this problem will be deducted 6 points."

'6666666' flooded the screen.

Mu Xin: “666.”

Hahaha--

Lao Tang: "But once you relax your body too much and don't use enough strength, your body frame will collapse, your pronunciation will become unclear, your arms will lose control, and your wrists will be controlled, and what comes out will be a mess."

"What to do? Take the initiative to control your body, keep it between loose and tight, just like the process of pulling and loosening a rubber band, and then use the inherent elasticity of the wrist to play, using the inertia of the hand's natural fall and the force of rebounding, and then repeat, repeat, practice more, and find the feeling more. I hope everyone can take their octave technique to a higher level soon. Thank you."

[You in the Cloud: Thank you, Teacher Tang! ]

[Biscuit: I understand! Thank you, Teacher Tang! ]

【Little Star: Thank you Teacher Tang! 】

【LLL Thunder is about to rain: I was enlightened! Thank you Teacher Tang for sharing! 】

[The plane flies into the sky: I feel so strong now! ]

[Yang Le Ge Yang: Thank you Teacher Tang! Thank you Teacher Mu]

[Ruby: Thank you both teachers for the wonderful interactive teaching. Teacher Mu, can you give us another Kuang Liu? ]

Lao Tang: "I'm afraid it won't work today."

Mu Xin: "Next time, next time. My old arms and legs can't stand this kind of torture."

Ha ha ha ha--

While chatting and laughing, the four teachers returned to their seats.

Lao Tang: "Are you still here with the sword drawn? There has been no sound."

Draw Your Sword, Dad: "Yes, yes, I just turned off the microphone. It's too noisy. Sister Mu is invincible."

Mu Xin smiled: "Do you accept it or not?"

Draw Your Sword, Dad: "I give in. I came here just to find trouble. Haha, thank you, Sister Mu. Thank you."

Mu Xin: "Haha, you just played so fast on purpose, your technique is already very perfect."

Draw the Sword, Daddy: "No, no, I'm still far from it. I need to learn more from the four teachers. I just heard Brother Tang talk about consciously and actively controlling the wrist to loosen and tighten it. I really learned a lot. Thank you Brother Tang. Friends in the live broadcast room who are interested must refer to this set of methods to practice."

[Biscuit: I don't want to bother with you, traitor! ]

[You in the Cloud: I do feel offended by what you said]

[The plane flies into the sky: I want to draw a clear line with you]

There was a burst of “loving” condemnation on the public screen.

Draw Your Sword, Dad: "No, no, we are all good brothers. I am really a wimp."

Lao Tang: "Did Zeng Mengqiu recommend you here?"

Draw the Sword Daddy: "Haha, the piano room is exposed. It was my senior sister who told me last week that your piano classroom is going to open a live broadcast room. She strongly recommended that I come and listen." Lao Tangle: "How do you feel about it? Do you have any suggestions? Everyone can chat about it. Otherwise, how about we do a regular online review program every week in the future."

Draw Your Sword, Dad: "Interesting, very interesting. I think this review session is very good. It is both interesting and informative. Anyway, for me personally, I have gained a lot today."

[You in the Clouds: One issue per week is too little! ]

[Apple loves to eat mangosteen: at least three periods! ]

[Ruby: Come and have a show every day, it will definitely become popular]

[Biscuit: There will also be concerts. I hope to listen to the online performances of several teachers. I am looking forward to it.]

[Autumn Leaf Wind F: Concerts with various themes, as well as commentary sessions, can be organized into different themes, just like today’s Czerny special, learners at all stages can benefit from it]

Lao Tang: "Qiuyefeng F's idea is good."

There is indeed strength in numbers. After a short while, all kinds of suggestions filled the minds of the four people on the stage.

To be honest, there are quite a few good suggestions that are worth discussing.

[Freedom and Art: It would be best if the teachers could make a targeted summary at the end of each session.]

[You in the Cloud: Right, right, that’s what I wanted to say just now. For example, the first kid played 453. I didn’t even know that Czerny had such a collection of works. I hope teachers can give us half-baked people more knowledge about various works.]

Mu Xin: "There are many pieces in 453 that are worth practicing, especially in the early stages, and you can practice them interspersed."

[His Majesty the King VII: I have always thought that Czerny’s works are quite interesting, but my technique is so poor that I can only play the first half of 299, and now I can’t pick it up anymore]

Lao Tang: "Come on, come on. Being able to play the first half of 299 at least shows that your level has reached a certain level. 299 is indeed a hurdle. Pick it up again when you have time. Don't give up."

[The Plane Flies to the Sky: Actually, I have always felt that Czerny’s works do not have much musicality]

[You in the cloud:? ]

[Ruby: Not really.]

[Anyone Can Cook: Yes, it’s like industrial products on an assembly line, with long sections of repetitive content. My teacher who came back from France said that you can’t keep practicing Czerny, it’s easy to get bored]

[Flowers blooming everywhere on the other side: Hu Kuner's talk]

[Biscuit: If you are not good at it, just practice more. Do you know who Czerny is? ]

[Anyone can be a fan: I really don’t know. I just know that kids who learn piano from a young age in Europe won’t stick to Czerny.]

[Ruby: Laughing, another one who can’t stand up]

[Anyone Can Cook: Well, stand up straight and stand properly]

Lao Tang: "Let's discuss this rationally. Don't be so nervous."

[Flowers blooming everywhere on the other side: Come on the mic and let us listen]

[Anyone Can Cook: I am not able to cook right now, can you guys show us whether you can make flowers pop out? ]

Hai Tao: "Okay, okay, everyone, please pause for a moment. You are all welcome to continue on the mic on Saturday."

Lao Tang: "I think there is no need to argue about this issue in our live broadcast room. This issue has been debated for more than ten years. It is meaningless. If you like to treat Czerny as a technique to hone yourself, then focus on improving your technique. If you like to treat Czerny as music, then look for his musical ideas in it. No one should force anyone."

[You in the Cloud: Yes! Listen to Brother Tang. ]

Lao Tang smiled bitterly: "Don't listen to me. To be honest, the four of us can't reach a consensus on this issue. Teacher Mu and I almost had a fight because of this argument."

[Lichun Baby: Hahaha?! ]

[Sheep, sheep: I’m going to die of laughter]

[Bread eating toast: I'm late! What's going on? Why are you making so much noise? Calm down, I'm a security guard.]

[Ruby: I didn’t mean to argue with anyone, it’s just that some people are being sarcastic, saying they’re French and European]

[You in the cloud: Alright! ]

[Anyone Can Be a Fan: I don’t blame anyone, I’m just stating my point of view, some people just got impatient]

Mu Xin: "What are you doing! Is this possible? You are all my brothers! This is it!"

Lao Tang: "See, this is how I lost."

A burst of laughter in the live broadcast room brought the atmosphere back to normal.

Mu Xin: "Don't say I have a loud voice, your voice is not small either."

Lao Tang: “That’s not even as big as yours.”

Mu Xin turned to look at Lao Tang: "What do you mean?"

Everyone in the live broadcast room: What kind of show is this! ! ! ! ! ! !
Hai Tao: "You two should be quiet too. Boss, you speak and we will listen to you."

Li An smiled and interacted with the comments on the public screen. "Yes, our piano classroom No. 4 is usually so lively. If you have the chance, you are welcome to come and sit down offline."

After a pause, "Czerny, what do you mean, Karl Czerny."

The public screen suddenly went quiet.

moment.

"Let me tell you a story as a final summary for today."

"In late autumn of 1823 in Vienna, the mist over the Danube had not yet dissipated."

"Czerny is sitting at the harpsichord, reviewing a new set of exercises."

"Suddenly, a green shadow passed across the piano keys and accurately pecked away the quill that he had just dipped in ink."

"This is his parrot. Czerny kept a parrot. I didn't expect that someone with Czerny's personality would keep a pet."

"It was given to him by the Russian Duchess five years ago. He likes it very much."

"A female student came to class in the afternoon. She was a rich girl from Hungary. I think her name was Anna. The parrot was making trouble. Czerny used a piece of candy to coax the parrot away."

"But Anna was still trembling as she sat in front of the piano. She had been scolded by Teacher Czerny three times before, and just before the parrot came to make trouble, she was scolded again because of her hand shape."

"Miss Anna continued to play. After playing two bars, Czerny tapped her elbow with a steel ruler and said, 'You touched the keys too deeply when you changed the key in the third bar. Do you think you are ringing the monastery morning bell?'"

"Just then, the harpsichord made another shrill sound, and Miss Anna watched in horror as the parrot fell on the music stand, shouting, 'Too deep! Too deep!'

"Miss Anna was so frightened that she ran away with her skirt lifted up. Just like that, Czerny lost a valuable sponsorship."

"Very angry, Czerny could only watch helplessly as the parrot continued to fly around the room."

"As he was watching, he suddenly laughed. He suddenly remembered that when he was revising Etude No. 599 last night, this little guy was by his side all night long."

"Czerny was a lonely man who only knew how to compose music and had few friends in his life."

"He will never break up with the parrot brother because of a rich lady or a savings."

"From that day on, the organist of St. Stephen's Cathedral often saw this strange sight: when Czerny hurried through Grapevine Lane with his music under his arm, there was always a proud parrot squatting on his shoulder."

"The apprentice in the tailor shop downstairs always swore that he had heard the parrot cursing in four languages ​​in the key of C major from the second-floor window."

"On a snowy night in late winter, when Liszt climbed into the backyard of Czerny's house, he saw Czerny wrapped in a quilt feeding biscuits to the parrot."

"Yes, the future king of piano."

"The future piano king knew that his teacher was lonely, so he took a night off to visit his teacher. When he saw this scene, he couldn't help laughing so hard that his whole body was shaking."

"Because our King of Piano heard clearly that the parrot was humming the teacher's new etude No. 299, although the lowered mi note was obviously out of tune."

"Liszt said, but it has more musical sense than that English student you dismissed last month. At least it doesn't play the ornaments like a lame goat dancing."

"Cher smiled and added some wood to the fireplace. The flames were like jumping notes on his glasses."

"He asked Liszt why the craftsmen had carved roses into the lute's resonance box."

"Just as Liszt was racking his brains to think of the answer to the question."

"The parrot flew around in the sky with a biscuit in its mouth and landed on its owner's shoulder."

"Czerny stroked the parrot's head and then looked at the manuscript of Work No. 299 by the stove."

"He said after a moment."

“Remember Franz, the most beautiful harmony is often hidden where people cannot see.”
