As the first player to appear, Ashley performed as expected of a player who can enter the Chopin main competition, whether from his gait on stage or his continuous performance of five works.

Of course, if you don't count his mistakes in the last Scherzo, his performance today should be pretty good.

Perhaps it was because Ashley had not participated in other piano competitions that he actually seemed a little nervous during the performance of the last piece.

This tension is intuitively reflected in the volume performance of his left hand on the chords - sometimes louder and sometimes softer, unstable.

There is no need for other contestants and judges to comment, just the audience can clearly hear it.

Ashley's demeanor was normal when he stepped off the stage, but everyone noticed the huge drops of sweat left on his forehead when he took the curtain call.

There was almost no obvious communication among the 17 judges, and they all gave Ashley a score.

In the first three rounds of competition, each judge will score based on a full score of 25 points.

The first and second round scores are kept confidential until the end of the game.

Judging from the expressions of the judges, Ashley should not dare to have too high expectations for his average score.

After he left the stage, the female host came on stage again and invited today's second contestant.

"The second player who is about to appear is player No. 22 from China, Feng Ziyan."

"..."

"..."

Compared to contestant No. 21, Feng Xiaopang’s introduction is slightly longer.

The host called him out affectionately.

His appearance also received considerable applause.

In the past four Chopin Competitions, more and more Asian contestants have squeezed into the "80-person list" of the public stage.

Over time.

In the audience's impression, their performance will always give people a sense of solidity, as if they are born with impeccable skills. Listening to them playing the piano, no matter how difficult the repertoire is, will not make people feel dangerous or uneasy.

.

Just like if this player comes from Asia, he will have a label of "technical flow" on his body.

But as the first Asian player to appear, Feng Ziyan taught the audience a lesson.

His five works are arranged in no order, as if they were a improvised program.

But he is absolutely skilled, which can be seen from his preliminary competition video.

It's just that in today's game, he showed another skill.

It is well known that ‘Rubato’ free tempo is the essence of Chopin’s music.

The free speed displayed by Feng Ziyan is different from traditional robato, and the 'sense of time' in his performance completely puts the cart before the horse with the motivational development of classical music.

He played each piece at a very loud volume, and most of the antiphons were trivial and violent.

His performance today was completely different from his performance in the preliminary round.

Everyone in the audience could see him enjoying music in front of the piano, as if this unconventional sound was the Chopin he understood.

From this point alone, he completely defeated player No. 21.

In the performance of the last nocturne, Feng Ziyan boldly added a pop music playing technique to the music, making the already graceful music melody even more brilliant.

At the end of the song, he stood up, played the piano, and bowed to the audience with a smile.

Left the scene to applause.

Among the judges, a Polish local judge really liked Feng Xiaopang's spiritual performance. He gave Feng Ziyan a score of 18.6. When he wrote this score, it seemed certain that he should have given the highest score.

.

He knew the scoring habits of those old friends.

On stage, he is fair and aboveboard, but off stage he is still secretive.

Qin Jian held Duan Ran's hand, just like in Vienna a year ago.

The game continues.

...

The third Brazilian girl to appear is already 23 years old this year, which was beyond Qin Jian's expectation.

On the day of the grouping, he thought the other party was no more than 17 years old.

Although she has a harmless face, the way the little lolita sits in front of the kawa and plays loudly and loudly is not inappropriate.

As a technical third-degree double-note rushed off the stage, all the players in the audience seemed to be able to feel the dexterity of their hands on the keyboard from a distance.

"really."

Qin Jian thought silently in his heart.

In the strength distribution list of this group, Little Loli is definitely ranked in the top three in Qin Jian's mind.

This ranking is derived from his research on the performance of each advanced player in the preliminary round.

The bearded man on the 21st was originally among the top five in his mind, but his performance on the stage with an audience was really unsatisfactory.

But looking at the little Lolita, she is very experienced. She can use music to mobilize the atmosphere of the scene, and she is also open and comfortable in her physical performance.

"After all, he is a player who has won awards in other competitions."

Qin Jian couldn't help but sigh in his heart again, it's stable.

When the little Loli played the last Scherzo in C sharp minor, the audience burst into warm applause.

After the three contestants passed, the concert hall gradually entered a competition atmosphere.

Regardless of the judges or the audience in the audience, everyone will quietly discuss and compare the following contestants during the competition.

After the little Lolita, Mr. Fang appears.

A navy blue dress

His handsome facial features and tall figure caught the audience's attention as soon as he appeared on the stage, which is understandable.

Being handsome is a kind of capital.

The five preliminary songs prepared by Fang Zongyao are quite satisfactory, including third-degree etudes that highlight technique, and a B major nocturne that expresses oneself.

The five works were completed in one go under his steady performance, and Qin Jian did not hear a single mistake.

The audience also gave the first ‘bravo!’ when the music ended.

The Chopin Competition will never limit the enthusiasm of the audience, and the general audience who can come to the scene to watch also understand the rules that they should abide by as an audience.

Apparently Fang Zongyao's performance moved an 'audience'.

Under applause, Fang Zongyao played the harp and took his final call.

Next to Duan Ran, Xia Shu applauded seriously. She felt that Fang Jun's performance today was extremely outstanding.

The appearance of Mr. Fang brought the first round of the competition to a climax. Of course, this was also thanks to the preparation made by Xiao Loli.

Among the four contestants up to this point, aside from the weird Feng Xiaopang, Big Beard’s mistakes caused him to not express the music well.

Xiao Loli and Fang Zongyao both showed the charm of Chopin's music in terms of completeness, details and musical level.

The charms of the two cannot be lumped together.

Little Loli embodies a kind of precise control in music. She shows a kind of control that establishes a self-system. Her Chopin is extremely fair and standardized, which is a kind of performance emphasized by the typical European school.

This may be due to her study experience in Germany.

As for her identity as a Brazilian, at least for now, she has not shown the passion for samba in her music.

Fang Zongyao showed his extraordinary ability in fluency and neatness.

This also surprised Qin Jian.
