Chapter 99 The Little Girl Giving Roses (2)
"Part [-], question [-]—the more art is restricted, the more free it is. How can this be explained? Isn't this a contradiction? Please give me an example. Start answering!"


It took only half a second to report the question, and there was a flash of answering.


"Group A, An Yuxi!"


Han Enzhu doesn't care about the problems at all, anyway, whenever there is a new question, she rushes to press it - maybe An Yuxi is the reason why she is so unscrupulous.

Both Jin Qiaohui and Han Enzhu looked at the frustrated expressions of other players with complacent faces.


An Xihao glared at Han Enzhu. This woman was the most annoying and ungentle girl he had ever seen.


All the spotlights were on An Yuxi again.


I saw him sitting on the chief stage of Group A, his eyes shining like stars, like broken jade stained with inkstone inkstone, he meditated for three seconds, and then slowly released his clear and soft voice: "Actually, the most unique composers are often If you set your own limits, the concentration of goals can be more targeted. Just like a condenser can light a match. See the whole picture from one point, and seek the overall situation from one corner. For example: Chopin only loves the piano, Scarlatti only chooses For the harpsichord, Debussy only pays attention to sound, light and color, while Webern only prefers condensed expression."


There was warm applause. This kind of noble and elegant boy who is calm and easy to handle has not only fascinated the girls but also the judges.


The judges began to announce the final topic - "The final proposition, the two sides can point to each other's deficiencies, and they can defend freely. They can also freely make theories to refute the defense's point of view, but there must be a basis for it to be convincing. .This is a proposition, from which you can put forward different propositions for the opponent to answer. This time the score accounted for 40% of the game, so it is a great opportunity for Xianyu to turn around. Please take advantage of it.”


"The question is—what is a great musical masterpiece?"


"Di!" Someone pressed it.


"Group B, rush to answer!"


An Xihao grinned—he dared to rush to answer me, hum!

An Xihao glanced at David, David nodded, and said, "According to German pianist Schnabel's opinion, those works are always better than any specific interpretation."


Some people began to ask: "When it comes to specific works performed, what I want to ask is the difference between pop music and serious music?"


An Xihao took up the topic and said: "Popular music is like a soft drink, everyone likes it, and it's cheap and delicious; serious music is like old wine, which must be tasted by connoisseurs. It is strong and mellow."


Jin Qiaohui also joined the battle: "So, what is the dilemma facing modern composers' music?"


An Xihao, after thinking for a while, held the microphone tightly and said: "The problem faced by composers in the past is how to use language; the problem faced by modern composers is how to make language. To be able to innovate on old composers, That’s the dilemma they face.”


After An Xihao finished speaking, he immediately fought back: "Who is the character represented by the music that is clumsy and bombastic?"
