In Curtis's so-called concert hall, the lecturer spoke in a calm and unhurried manner, while the audience looked up or bowed their heads in thought, the scene was serious and dull.

Compared with the infiltration of secular music into church music in Perrotin's works, Yang Jingxing is more willing to talk about Benchois 200 years later. There are many secular songs handed down by this French composer.Director Yang believes that Ban Shuwa will definitely become a very successful songwriter even if he lives in modern times, because: "He has grasped the eternal theme, love."

Love was also a common theme, and some listeners laughed.

Yang Jingxing sat down in front of the piano: "Let's listen to what popular songs were like 600 years ago."

No one objected, and the audience mostly acted as if they were ready.

The lecturer played the melody created by the composer 600 years ago. The time limit, the slow notes with both court and religious colors did seem dry and monotonous. Fortunately, Yang Jingxing was good at digging. After playing a few bars, he paused to remind everyone: "Attention syncopation here."

Some audience members nodded to show that they heard it, but they continued to demonstrate before nodding their heads on the stage.

The lecturer was very time-saving, and after playing a few bars, he reminded: "Pay attention to his emphasis on the main voice..."

An antique melody from six centuries ago, the lecturer picked out some practices that are still popular and even mainstream today, such as changes in rhythm, the structure of the rondo form, and even the use of half-tones.

Yang Jingxing didn't play the whole melody, he stopped after most of the audience seemed to understand the meaning, and asked: "Does Ban Suva have the talent to compose popular songs of the [-]th century?"

Many listeners nodded, of course, Mozart Schubert must have this ability.

What Yang Jingxing meant was: "He doesn't need to learn any new techniques and methods, he just needs to do more and be bolder, we can try it."

Some students showed interest, some expressions and even anticipation.

Yang Jingxing obviously believed in Curtis's students' musical accomplishment, and without any explanation, he directly played on the piano the works of Banchois adapted by Banchoix's own technique.

The first few notes are exactly the same as the lecturer demonstrated before. The difference starts from the rhythm change in the third measure, but at this time it is still within the control range of the style of the original song, and there is no obvious difference. The continuous use and processing of the method showed some taste, and then various techniques appeared one after another, and the permutations and combinations were repeated.

In just one minute, what the lecturer played completely turned into the feeling of a modern pop song, and this evolution process was not far-fetched and deliberately justified, and it felt like a normal evolution of a melody.

But Curtis's audience was still indifferent. No one was shocked by the lecturer's little grandstanding trick. It would be a face for geniuses from all over the world to continue to listen carefully without showing a sneer.

After nearly 2 minutes to roughly construct an even avant-garde pop song, Yang Jingxing also stopped showing his ugliness, stood up and said: "This is some of Ban Suwa's talents, which are very close to us, so until today So many people still use the material he left behind."

Some students nodded.

Yang Jingxing speculated: "It may also be that love has never changed."

A small number of students used emoticons to hehe.

Yang Jingxing drew away: "Some people worry that music will be exhausted. Thinking about love, music has made a lot of progress and expansion."

More people hehe and even laughed lightly, including a few old guys.A 50-[-]-year-old Caucasian man who hadn’t greeted the lecturer before seemed to be hiding a knife in his smile, and suddenly said: "I have doubts, is that a quantitative Canon?"

Oh, master, I actually heard it, and I want to catch the current situation of the lecturer so straightforwardly, how can the Yankees be so virtuous.Curtis's students were also stupid, and they all stared at the stage, completely ignorant of this embarrassing moment.

Yang Jingxing had no choice but to explain: "Yes, I think that Banshuwa has shown a wealth of Canon experience in the history of Fubuerdong. There are not many related documents about Fubuerdong. This concept of the subject has not been valued by later generations. We may even There is a misconception, and someone who has done more research and experimentation with the Benchois and many of the three-part songs of his contemporaries may think, as I do, that the canon is the best means of expression. We know that Okgang is the Benthois Student, he has adapted the teacher's canon mass, I think Okgang's decoration of the canon is the best embodiment of his talent, although it is easy to be overlooked. But Okgang's canon technology is not new, in his Ma Xiao had successfully used it in the previous century, but Ma Xiao did not release his talent, we can look back..."

The lecturer sat down and began to play again. These high-achieving students from Curtis quickly nodded to show that they understood, and at the same time, many people were eager to give it a try.

Yang Jingxing was afraid of being made things difficult again, so he stopped after a brief demonstration and immediately said: "There is no need to talk about these, let's continue today's topic. In Chinese, a natural gift is usually called talent. Tian is the sky, meaning close to nature but It has the color of God. Endowment is not a gift, but a bestowment, a gift, and this kind of bestowment is often associated with responsibility..."

Yang Jimao even had his face swollen and became a cultural person. Fortunately, those Chinese students did not expose their loyalty in public.It may also be disdain. Those who join Curtis are regarded as new stars in the industry, so they should be a little bit magnanimous.

Regarding responsibility, Yang Jingxing briefly described several masters or friendships in Western music, such as Beethoven to Czerny, Czerny to Liszt, and of course Schumann was mentioned. The lecturer believed that Schumann’s contribution to music history The greatest contribution is not his music creation but the promotion of a group of musicians. Then when it comes to two outstanding women, Clark Schumann and Fanny Mendelssohn, the lecturer has to say a few more words.

Yang Jingxing took the early creation of two female composers as an example, and demonstrated their extraordinary talents in the form of excerpts.In fact, the academic world has long recognized that Clark and Fanny are outstanding women, but Yang Jingxing said something different today. He believes that these two female musicians have the talent to become great composers, but it is a pity that they do not have their husbands Or a good opportunity like a younger brother to develop and display their talents.

The audience was not very surprised. In this day and age, there are still a few punks who sycophant to feminism. These people can't say anything.

The lecturers intensified, and began to compare the creative details between husband and wife and siblings with nose and eyes. Although they didn't say it clearly, the meaning became more and more obvious, that is, women are more powerful than men.

Some men in the audience had subtle expressions, obviously dissatisfied with the lecturer's out-of-context and generalization.The female audience was more responsive, with widespread euphoria betraying general seriousness.

The lecturer had a lot of arguments, and he could only go so far as to believe that the students can comprehend it by themselves. For example, while playing the melody of Fanny's song, he praised: "How beautiful, does it feel familiar? If you are interested, you can compare it with the seventh Symphony second movement."

Compared with the argument, the lecturer's argument is more fresh, and some people in the audience have begun to take notes.

Yang Jingxing raced against time: "Mendelssohn's "Resurrection Rhythm Sonata", does anyone know?" The manuscript of this work was only discovered three or forty years ago. Although the work is very good, there are almost no performances and recordings. After all, musicians also have to consider the market. .

Curtis's students are amazing, and many of them nodded.

Yang Jingxing asked, "How is it?"

Several students said some ambiguous adjectives one after another, beautiful, elegant and light... Chinese students also spoke.

More people didn't seem to know that Yang Jingxing sat down again and started playing.

The audience continued to listen carefully. Although the things the speaker is currently playing are small fragments with little technical content, the basic skills are still reflected.

Yang Jingxing played a little more this time, excerpted about six paragraphs, a total of forty or fifty bars, and then asked, "Can you feel it?"

Two or three students nodded hesitantly.

Yang Jingxing directly gave a conclusion: "I think there is a great possibility that this piece was composed by Fanny."

There was a buzzing sound in the room, and many people suddenly fidgeted and looked around. Most of the people who had been silent for more than ten minutes after the lecture started opened their mouths at this moment, or at least circled their lips in surprise.

Yang Jingxing was a little helpless and tried to stabilize the situation: "Of course, the facts are not that important..."

"Sir!" The uneducated white male student yelled at the lecturer directly, not only did he not respect humility, but he also said confidently: "I don't think you should make such an inference just based on a few similar technical methods, They were in the same family at the same time, they were incredibly close..."

Damn, seeing someone making trouble, the audience quickly quieted down, and everyone seemed excited and excited.

Yang Jingxing didn't dare to reply loudly in other people's territory: "As for general technical methods and distinctive and flexible personal characteristics, they are a bit like the relationship between genius and talent. Even if you are born with talent, you have to work very hard to be Showcasing talent..."

The person who watched the lecture sat down again, and the boy who questioned him didn't force him too much, and returned to the audience's demeanor.

Yang Jingxing put his hands on the keys and knocked on the door a few times, and then just looked at the audience without explaining, everyone knew what it was.Then the lecturer adapted and played the complex multi-part relationship in the third movement of the Symphony of Destiny. This may be a bit of a test of the audience's hearing, but most people should be able to hear the outline.

Even if they only listened to the general idea, the facial expressions of most of the audience still changed, because this section of the lecturer's demonstration was finally a bit interesting, and such music literacy and playing skills are qualified to sit there.

Yang Jingxing asked: "Which part is more difficult? For me as a composer, the second part is easy, while the former is difficult."

Many people nodded their heads one after another, and those rich expressions of surprise and sudden movements seemed to have a kind of finally understood feeling of being overwhelmed and sympathetic to each other.

Yang Jingxing continued: "Beethoven did not create new techniques, theories and genres, and his name is rarely associated with genius, but he became the greatest musician."

Was it bribed? An Asian girl with a Korean accent asked: "How did he do it?"

"Besides studying hard and working hard, I don't know what other tricks he has." Yang Jingxing stood up again, and he was also proficient, pacing with the rhythm of his speech: "But we can try to find out when Beethoven showed Has he lost the ability to become an extraordinary few? Or which of his works shows us that a composer who is not very successful has the possibility of becoming great?"

This kind of thing is inconclusive, and the beholder sees the benevolence and the wise sees the wisdom. The students expressed their opinions loudly, and most people tend to think that the third symphony is a sign of Beethoven's maturity.

Finally hearing the answer he wanted, Yang Jingxing pointed to the student who was clearly dark-skinned but had a handsome face and facial features like a girl from the south of the Yangtze River, admiringly: "Moonlight Sonata, I think so too."

The girl lost her sense of beauty when she laughed, but fortunately, the audience quickly quieted down, and then a boy helped to add: "Before 1801, the Second Symphony."

Yang Jingxing walked towards the piano again: "Let's take the piano sonata as an example to review Beethoven's creative career."

Curtis still had something to commend him, the room was quiet, the only sound was the footsteps of people stepping on the wooden floor.

Communicating with the masters, Yang Jingxing sat down and started directly, starting with Beethoven's first piano sonata, and from each sonata, he selected one or two fragments that best represented the composer's strong personal style or the most exciting part of the song.In order to save time, Yang Jingxing's pauses between paragraphs were very short, let alone commentary.

When listening to the fragments of the first, second and third sonatas, the expressions of most of the audience were serious and calm.By the fourth and fifth sonatas, some audience members began to adjust their postures to better maintain a quiet atmosphere.When the lecturer demonstrated Sonata No. [-], the audience began to feel a little restless, and made various small movements around.

It looked like a lot, Yang Jingxing played more than 5 excerpts from more than a dozen sonatas. In fact, Yang Jingxing played a total of less than [-] minutes. He stopped and looked at the audience: "It doesn't sound very special."

Many audience members clapped their hands, as if admiring the courage of the bird man on stage to question the greatest composer.Seeing someone clapping their hands, those who didn't show any signs were ready to follow suit, but the few sporadic applause in front of them stopped as soon as they raised their hands.A fleeting applause that gave up halfway was really embarrassing, and it seemed so tacit and disunity.

Yang Jingxing had a thick skin, pretending nothing happened: "Let's see what happened in the NO.14 sonata."

Wherever he fell, Curtis didn't give the lecturer a chance to strike first. Before he raised his hand, the applause rang out instantly, and all Curtiss were in unison. Get involved.And not only did the applause come out with great vigor, but the applause was well-trained, as if it had been agreed that everyone would clap four or five times, and then the audience fell silent.

Although the applause was only short for three or four seconds, it was full of deterrent force that was caught off guard, but Yang Jingxing still acted as if he hadn't heard it, and dropped his fingers to play the piano without even looking at it.
