Antonio Vivaldi, an Italian, was a godfather primarily, a composer secondarily, and then a violinist. Because of his red hair, he was called the Red-haired Priest.
During the period he lived in, European Baroque art was at its peak, and influenced by this environment, his works were mostly of this style.
The most well-known of these is the violin concerto "The Four Seasons"
In fact, this is a complete set of musical works, the full name of which is "Attempts at Harmony and Creativity" (0p.8), which contains a total of twelve concertos, of which 1-4 are the famous "Four Seasons".
"Spring" in E major, "Summer" in G minor, "Autumn" in F major, and "Winter" in F minor.
Among them, "Spring" and "Winter" are the most difficult.
The young man named Ninomiya Takuya really didn't know how to communicate with others. After deciding on the piece to be played, he didn't even say a word, but just lowered his head and played the electronic organ.
The prelude of "Four Seasons · Winter" is very interesting. From the very beginning, the melody evokes a feeling of cold wind and trembling. This is because in the original version, the violinist uses fast, repetitive trills and tremolos to simulate the shivering caused by the cold.
The sharp, dissonant intervals and the short, disconnected rhythms all convey the feeling of people walking cautiously on the ice and their teeth chattering from the cold.
Yes, this song is not describing the winter scene, but the happy scene of a group of people in winter.
To highlight this point, Vivaldi even wrote a poem in the score.
This is the original version, and the prelude is introduced with piano. To realize this, it depends on the performer's technique.
Lu Qingfeng watched Ninomiya Takuya start to play and nodded secretly.
He didn't guess that this person must have practiced piano for a long time.
A normal version of "Four Seasons · Winter" requires at least two violins, a cello, and a piano to collaborate. In the case of two of the above instruments, the violinist has to be responsible for more parts.
At the tenth second of the prelude, Lu Qingfeng's violin sound blended in seamlessly.
When two strangers work together for the first time, it is easy for them to rush to take the shot or mismatch the rhythm, but this is not a problem at all for Lu Qingfeng.
Absolute pitch's keen ability to distinguish sounds makes it easy and smooth to seamlessly connect the piano performance.
This feeling made Ninomiya Takuya couldn't help but look up here, because he clearly felt that Lu Qingfeng was using the violin to support his piano sound.
This situation only shows that the other party's piano skills and understanding of music are broader and deeper than his.
For the audience who gradually gathered, the most intuitive feeling was that when the sound of the violin began, the melody that originally sounded ordinary suddenly became amazing.
The crowd was amazed at the change, and even more surprised that this young man with such extraordinary looks also possessed such superb piano skills.
At this time, 1 plus 1 will produce an effect greater than 2.
Passersby stopped here, and more and more people gathered, gradually causing congestion.
Yamada was awakened when he was squeezed. He looked up at the situation and had an idea. He asked one of the cameramen to point the gimbal camera at the crowd to record this moment.
"Mr. Lu might become the second Jack Chen."
While doing what he was supposed to do, he was thinking in his mind.
Jsck Chen is a star from Hong Kong and an international superstar in the 1980s and 1990s. He is very well-known in Japan and it is no exaggeration to say that everyone knows him.
Japanese society is actually very xenophobic, and this phenomenon is most obvious in the cultural and entertainment circles.
Especially for Chinese artists, only a few Hong Kong artists in the last century were able to perform there, and now few people can have much fame in this island country.
However, Korean pop artists are quite popular here.
Yamada Kumata inexplicably felt that Lu Qingfeng would regain his former glory in Fuso.
The music continued while he was daydreaming, and an accent from the piano brought his attention back to the two people in the middle.
The moment he looked up, the sound of the piano disappeared, and the violin solo occupied all his hearing. The melody of the biting cold wind blowing the snowflakes like blades towards his face suddenly sounded.
Cold, sharp, and precise like a scalpel, each note was clearly distinguishable, with a grainy texture like cracked crystal. The expressiveness of the music made him shudder all over.
Even those who have no knowledge of classical music can appreciate the terrifying level of control the young man has over the bowstring at this moment.
In Yamada Kumata's eyes, Lu Qingfeng at this moment was like the legendary swordsman.
The speed of the bow in his hand is as fast as lightning. The right hand plays the bow at an extreme speed, while the rise and fall of the left hand remains light and synchronized.
The coordination of both hands produces a clean, even melody.
And you can even see a smile on his face.
Stable, elegant, and unhurried.
Yamada Kumata felt that if he were a woman, he would definitely fall in love with him.
No one can remain calm under such charm.
A stunning quick step followed by a long note entered the transition section, and in less than three seconds Lu Qingfeng took over the melody again.
With a smile on his lips, he looked at the strings, feeling the direction and rhythm of the scale itself within the strict framework of the melody.
"Four Seasons · Winter" is neither difficult nor easy.
The most basic requirement for violinists in this piece is solid basic skills, fast-locking sixteenth-note runs, and clear and smooth bowing of the right hand.
Each note cannot be unclear and requires precise bow section distribution and pressure control.
A large number of separate bows must also ensure uniform timbre and accurate rhythm changes in this process.
Bow speed control for dynamics and emotional portrayal of each note.
Among the left-hand techniques, the fast scales and large leaps in the allegro movement are particularly important, as are the frequent changes of position, vibrato, and string touching, as well as the indispensable ornaments in Baroque music.
Lu Qingfeng had practiced this piece extensively during the advanced stage of his violin studies.
As my violin skills have become more sophisticated, I have a new understanding of the expressiveness and tension of music. I can play this piece again with ease and freedom.
One person, one piano, and the accompaniment of an electronic keyboard.
Lu Qingfeng demonstrated through his actions what it means that one person is an orchestra.
At one minute and seven seconds, with his emotions rising, Lu Qingfeng's bowstring unfolded magnificently.
In the tense and exciting melody like a storm, tremolo, echo, appoggiatura and other techniques are used effortlessly.
The extraordinary atmosphere created by the boy's own charm and his free and easy posture in playing makes people obsessed and unable to extricate themselves.
A thrilling performance was performed on the bustling streets of Tokyo.
The young man surrounded by music is the god made of ice and snow!
