Chapter 610 Chapter 609. The last great music master? The swan song of music art? (Subscribe)
Elsa couldn't help but be surprised.
She was also born into a family of antique dealers. From childhood to adulthood, the number of private collectors who had national treasures that she had seen was only a handful.
In fact, there are very few national treasures scattered abroad, and most of them are still in national museums in various countries.
However, knowing that she had foreseen Wang Qian, the collections that seemed to have the potential to become national treasures became more numerous? Wang Qian alone had three or four of them?
Such high-quality output is extremely rare, or even few in number, in the entire history of the world.
Whether in the history of Europe or China, there are only a handful of writers or artists who have left behind three or four national treasures, and the total number does not exceed one handful.
Most of the great writers and artists who have left their names in history can only leave behind one or two masterpieces that can be called national treasures. The rest of their works are second-rate collections. Although they are also extremely valuable, they are not national treasures and are a notch lower.
However, Red believed that the blackboard Wang Qian wrote on had the potential to become a national treasure in the future. Then, if we add the authentic "Xia Ke Xing" which is almost certain to become a national treasure, and the "View of the Waterfall at Mount Lushan", there would be three national treasures in total?
Aisha frowned slightly, looking at every note Wang Qian wrote on the blackboard. Each word was not as stunning as the Chinese calligraphy in The Knight's Path, but in her eyes it was still beautiful. She couldn't help but whispered, "It may be difficult to encounter such an opportunity in the future."
Reid thought about it for a moment and nodded in agreement: "Indeed, it may be difficult to encounter it in the future."
Today is an open class for Wang Qian to prove his status as a music master in front of the whole world, so every word has a special meaning.
From then on, no matter how much Wang Qian had become a musical master, the notes and handwriting he wrote no longer had the special meaning they have today.
Aisha whispered, "Uncle Red, if you can buy it, can you give me a few pieces?"
Red smiled bitterly: "I just want to try, the possibility is not high. But if the acquisition is successful, I can give you a song."
Elsa: "Okay, that's enough."
As a lover of music and art, Aisha knows clearly how precious the preaching work of such a musical master is.
The manuscript of the sermon by the greatest music master in European music history, Gamphis, was once offered a sky-high price of 200 million US dollars, but failed to be acquired. The owner of this collection is extremely mysterious, and only a few people in the world know his identity. The price more than ten years ago, according to the current rapid inflation rate of the US dollar, the price of the manuscript has at least doubled to more than 400 million US dollars.
Wang Qian did not become a musical master by proving his virtue through a single piece of work, but through a series of piano pieces. Therefore, the value of the notes for each piece is certainly not as high as Gampphis's manuscripts. However, if someone could collect all the notes for Wang Qian's entire series of works, then the value would be no less than Gampphis's manuscripts, and would become one of the most valuable music art collections.
pity……
Elsa looked at the area where the representatives of Juilliard School gathered with a regretful look on her face. She knew that Juilliard School would never give up Wang Qian's work notes.
This is the first college in North America to have handwritten notes of sermons left by music masters. Even if Juilliard School encounters a disaster and is about to close down in the future, they will not sell this collection of heritage.
Elsa looked at the representatives of the Central Conservatory of Music in front of her, praying in her heart that the leaders of the Central Conservatory of Music would be impressed by their prices, then she and Red would have a huge harvest today.
Under everyone's gaze, Wang Qian quickly wrote down the first piece to be performed today on the blackboard! There were not many pieces left in the entire nocturne series.
Wang Qian’s plan today is to complete the publication of the Nocturne series and complete the public performance of the entire series of works, thereby truly proving himself as a musical master.
The entire series of nocturnes published by the musical master in the previous life was also created on the premise that similar works already existed. It is the culmination of nocturne works, but cannot be considered a pioneer.
In this world, Wang Qian is the pioneer and integrator of the nocturne series, so his status and value in the field of music art will be even higher.
After finishing the score, Wang Qian didn't say a word. He just turned around and sat in front of the piano. Under everyone's gaze, he began to play!
All the music artists from all over the world stared at the notes on the blackboard with their eyes wide open, and pricked up their ears to listen to every tone played by Wang Qian, carefully feeling the unique artistic conception of the nocturne!
All the viewers around the world sitting in front of the TV also quieted down. They no longer checked their phones and sent messages while watching TV. Instead, they put down their phones and other things, stared at the TV with full attention, and listened to the piano piece that Wang Qian was going to perform next.
Even every ordinary person watching TV knows that every performance of Wang Qian today will be recorded in history, so they are particularly curious and pay attention to it, and do not want to miss any details.
As the unique piano music sounded, the unique artistic conception of Wang Qian's nocturne entered everyone's ears and emerged in everyone's mind along with the piano music.
In an instant, everyone at the scene had the feeling of taking a walk in a quiet woods at night. A person walking on a small path in the woods at night, a sense of tranquility and loneliness slowly grew in the heart, and a faint but deep sadness appeared involuntarily, making everyone's eyes show a trace of sadness.
This is the most intuitive feeling that many people have had recently after studying and listening to several nocturne works by Wang Qian!
That is, to use a touch of sadness to interpret the sorrow that goes deepest into the bone marrow.
Ma Long gently closed his eyes and listened to Wang Qian's performance with his heart. His face was full of enjoyment. He whispered to a professor from the Paris Conservatory beside him: "Listening to his performance is really enjoyable. The entire nocturne series is composed within a specific melody, and each piece has its own sadness. He seems to have discovered the code for the emotion of sadness in the notes."
Malone's words made several professors and music artists from the Paris Conservatory and several music art masters from the Eastman School of Music nod in agreement.
"Yes, he is a genius who discovered his own piano code!"
"I have recently been studying the nocturne series and found some patterns. I plan to try to imitate the patterns and create a piece to see if it can have the same effect."
"Whether a music series is successful depends on whether others can imitate it successfully. If we can also imitate his Nocturne series model and create successful works, then he will truly become a music master..."
"I took a day-long flight to get here, mainly because I wanted to listen to his live performance. It was really enjoyable..."
"This level of piano performance has only appeared in historical documents, and the most recent record was more than a hundred years ago."
One young student couldn't help but whisper, "Won't he talk about this piece?"
This unusual question made dozens of people around look at the young student from Eastman College. Students who could enter Eastman College and were qualified to attend classes here were naturally the world's top music talents.
However, when he asked this question, teachers and students from several world-class music schools around him looked at the student strangely. At the same time, they looked at the many teachers and students from Eastman College and masters of music and art as if they were looking at mentally retarded people with strange eyes, which made the student lower his head hurriedly, realizing that he had said too much.
Other teachers and students from Eastman College and masters of music and art also lowered their heads. Some were too ashamed to look up, let alone look at the teachers and students from other famous music schools around them.
The teachers and students from other famous music schools nearby also gradually withdrew their gazes, shook their heads with disdain, and then continued to listen carefully and attentively to Wang Qian's piano performance.
Questions?
explain?
Many teachers, students and music artists from the world's top music schools scoff at this.
Art doesn't need explanation! If you don't understand, it means you don't have the talent for music and art. Change your career as soon as possible! A student at Eastman College raised this question. People from other colleges around him looked down on Eastman, a top music school ranked in the top three in the world, and even questioned the ranking of this list.
This is because the driving forces behind this kind of ranking list are basically North American media and information agencies, so they will naturally be more inclined to favor several top music schools in North America.
This is also the reason why many famous music schools in Europe disdain this list, and do not recognize that several schools such as Curtis, Juilliard, Eastman, Manhattan, etc. are qualified to rank among the top three in the world all year round.
At least, in their opinion, several top music schools in Europe, such as the Paris Conservatory and Birmingham College, are no worse than Curtis, Eastman, Juilliard, Manhattan and other schools.
And more direct evidence is that the world-renowned music school from the polar bear, the Tchaikovsky Conservatory, is only ranked in the twenties. Not to mention the many world-class musicians from the polar bear, even many European music and art masters have spoken up for it.
Therefore, a simple question from a young student of Eastman College caused teachers and students from several famous music schools in Europe to look down on the so-called top music schools in North America.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
This little episode made everyone pay more attention to Wang Qian who was performing on the podium at the moment.
Wang Qian's performance has become more devoted.
This nocturne series is not as popular as the previous ones, but more classical and artistic. It has a deeper explanatory effect on the entire nocturne series and can elevate its overall artistry to a higher level. Perhaps to ordinary people, it is not as good as the previous two nocturnes, but to many music artists, it is more beautiful and the artistic conception is more profound and deep.
Therefore, many ordinary viewers in front of the TV, when listening to Wang Qian's performance, were not so deeply moved, nor did they think it was so beautiful. It was only their curiosity about the Nocturne series of preaching works and Wang Qian's reputation that continued to attract them to continue listening.
If anyone else had played a piece like this, they might have switched the station.
And all music artists and senior music art lovers will enjoy it.
This is the art of classical music.
Most ordinary people would feel sleepy after listening to it.
Many music artists and senior music enthusiasts listened attentively, as if they had discovered a rare treasure.
Ordinary people can't understand it? Don't know what's good about it? Many music artists smiled proudly after hearing it: "It's right that you don't understand it. If I make you understand it, is it still art? You don't need to understand it, just knowing that it is art is enough."
This may be one of the main reasons why music art has gradually declined in the past hundred years. Ordinary people don’t understand it and don’t like it! Pop music has taken advantage of this opportunity to rise and attract the ears of most people.
This development trend has been going on in China for more than two thousand years.
As early as the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, China's early musical art had already developed to maturity. At that time, musical works were exclusive to elegant people. Ordinary people could not hear them, let alone understand them. Later, they gradually developed into popular works that could be understood by the general public.
Chinese folk music works, in the past few hundred years or even thousands of years, are almost all popular works, which are spread among the people and can be understood by even illiterate farmers. This is the only way for the development of music art! So...
Many visionary music and art masters are afraid of one fact! That is, Wang Qian is not just the first music and art master in the past 100 years.
He may also be the last great music master in the history of world music art...
The pace of life all over the world is getting faster and faster, and successful pop music is becoming more and more popular and even vulgar. Few people can sit down and quietly appreciate the art of music. The soil for the survival of music art has become so narrow that it is almost gone.
Wang Qian's appearance is more like a flash of life in music art! People like Malone, Max, Dawson, Hoffman and others have all thought of this possibility.
Therefore, at this moment, when they watched Wang Qian's performance, they seemed more solemn and dignified.
It was as if I was witnessing something extremely sacred.
If there will be no more music masters in the future and music art will decline further after the end of the Wang Qian era, then today will become extremely important in the future history of music art.
Each of them is a witness to this important historical moment.
The entire auditorium became sacred.
Wang Qian's performance was still extremely perfect, and he performed the song perfectly. The artistic conception of the song almost overflowed from the piano and surrounded everyone! The whole scene seemed to have entered a quiet night.
When the last few notes sounded and Wang Qian's hands left the keys, the silence in the audience lasted for a long time before most people came to their senses.
What followed was still thunderous applause.
Qin Xuehong, Qin Xuerong, Jiang Yu, Murong Yue, and Juliet, who were standing at the side door to enjoy Wang Qian's performance at the closest distance, quickly stepped forward, removed the blackboard covered with notes written by Wang Qian, replaced it with a brand new one, carefully wrapped up the blackboard covered with notes, and took it out together.
Many people in the back were watching this scene on the podium and were ready to take action.
Elsa and Red really took action. While everyone was standing up and applauding excitedly, they left their seats, walked out, and hurried along the corridor towards the side door.
Qin Xuehong, Qin Xuerong, Jiang Yu, Murong Yue and Juliet carefully packed the filled blackboards into several specially prepared boxes.
He Chaohui came over to check again out of concern.
Elsa and Red saw it and hurried over.
