Bai Yuchen lowered his head and did not respond to his words. Instead, he started practicing the piece he was going to take the exam from the beginning.
He has perfect pitch and an exceptional sense of rhythm, so he doesn't need a metronome. The reason he needs to practice more is because he hadn't practiced before; he needs to memorize all thirteen pages of sheet music, so he needs to play it several more times.
After Bai Yuchen played it three times, he no longer needed to look at the sheet music. Wan Ge also played the violin with him and found that he really didn't make a single mistake.
He needed to look at the sheet music first, and the speed was a bit slow, so Wan Ge guessed that the other person was learning.
Did the other person memorize it after only playing it three times?
After Bai Yuchen didn't even look at the sheet music, Wan Ge immediately asked, "You've already memorized it?"
"Hmm." Bai Yuchen replied softly, "Many paragraphs are the same or similar, so it's not difficult to memorize."
In fact, that's how qin music is. Many sections may be repeated or just in different keys, so it's not actually that hard to memorize.
"You're really amazing."
Bai Yuchen looked at the girl in front of him and said, "This is not a piece that violin majors are required to learn. I bet even if you have taken piano as an elective, your teacher wouldn't give you such a difficult piece, so you are also very talented."
"You're so amazing, how come I've never heard of you participating in competitions?"
"Not interested," Bai Yuchen replied softly.
As he answered, his fingertips returned to the keyboard.
This time, Wan Ge didn't accompany him; she just stood silently by and watched him practice the piano.
Half an hour later, Wan Ge sat back down on the stool, but this time she was sitting in the first row.
In half an hour, Bai Yuchen actually played the piece a few more times. That's how it is when you practice the piano. Sometimes you might play the same piece repeatedly for several hours, days, or even longer.
Especially when you have some skill but not much, and you can't play a piece well enough to be considered presentable, and it's not a simple piece, you can only improve through repeated practice.
When Bai Yuchen felt he had practiced enough, he turned on the metronome on his phone, adjusted the speed, and then played along with the metronome again to see if he could keep up with the speed and do a final test.
For professionals like them, there are standards for the tempo of the pieces during exams; they must at least reach three-quarters of the standard tempo.
However, it was obvious that Bai Yuchen had reproduced the original song at the correct tempo, achieving a 100% accurate recreation.
Wan Ge began to doubt Mu Yinyin's statement that Bai Yuchen had not come to the school willingly, but was merely following Yun Luxiang.
Such a talented and amazing person, did they really not come to this school willingly?
Bai Yuchen not only handles details very well, but also has a high level of proficiency.
Emotion is also very important. A piece of music may sound similar, but the way the emotions are expressed can be quite different in reality.
In highly professional competitions, it's not just about difficulty and technique. Because how many players at the top can't play a piece instantly?
Therefore, in addition to difficulty and skill, the competition also involves the crucial emotional expression. Wan Ge sensed that even when Bai Yuchen was performing an exam piece, the music still possessed a soul.
