Graduation study summary: limited nostalgia, unlimited gratitude

Standing at every intersection of life, reviewing the always necessary way to pay tribute. For the years gone by, everyone has an experience of their own. Often we are full of nostalgia for the past, remembering to make life complete, because life will eventually be irreversible, and memories will make people trace. Because of the firm choice of the piano as a profession, it is doomed that almost all of the nostalgia in these four years is related to the piano.

The pianist is a lonely art. Choosing the piano as his own profession, whether it is excellent or not, actually chooses to be a dancer in the dark. The process of hard work is always lonely. No one can be in the true meaning. Accompanied you, in the process of unclear direction, it is precious to be able to persist. Some changes happen unconsciously. Only after persisting and looking back, will you find that something has already entered the bloodstream and sneaked into the soul, which will be something you can never give up in this life.

For the graduation exam that just ended, I think it can be said that it is a phased summary of my university study . As with every concert and exam in the past four years, both my main teacher and myself have devoted a lot of effort to this. In this concert, I chose Bach 12's average law - Overture and Fugue, Beethoven's e-flat sonata "Farewell" op.81 and Chopard's b minor sonata op.35 three works. The repertoire covers works from Baroque, classical music to romanticism. Here I will talk about some simple understandings and feelings about the last two works from early practice to post-processing.

"Farewell" belongs to Beethoven's middle and late works, and the music strongly exudes a new style that has matured. In addition to the gorgeous piano skills, this work also has a "transparency" tempered by calm and rational. And the emotions expressed are very delicate. I think maybe this is the real difficulty of this sonata. If you say "the ecstasy is only the other", then in this song, in addition to this, there is a kind of warm and affectionate, heroic and superb. I think that after this, I still need to make more efforts to deeply understand the deeper meaning of the works and explore the deeper emotional world. That kind of feeling should be a kind of beautiful, but it is also temperate; when you come, you refuse to give up until you are satisfied. How to interpret the spirit of this song, in the middle of the external movement, let a force deep in the soul rising from the soul envelope and penetrate into the whole song. The kind of poetic imagination and delicate emotions require the precipitation of time and life to truly understand and understand from the bottom of my heart.

Compared with Beethoven’s “Farewell” sonata, Chopard’s sonata of b-flat minors seems to show more unrestrained and unrestrained feelings, breaking through the constraints of classical forms. This work was made in 1839, and the most famous "send funeral" march of the third movement was first made in 1837, when Chopard failed to recuperate on the island of Maeka and lived in the hometown of George Sang. The whole song is divided into four movements. The most famous third movement, just mentioned, is the funeral of the music. When you first chose to play this sonata, it was deeply attracted by this movement. The music is solemn and quiet, elegant and solemn. . The beginning of the release of the funeral team. The mourning of the death knell, the quietness in the middle seems to come from the comfort of God, as sweet as the sky, and then repeat the funeral process until the distance, leaving a blank. The finale of the emergency, Schumann once commented: "This is a non-melody, no joyful movement, like a strong hand suppressing the rebellious soul." This movement, in addition to the player's own finger function and technical requirements I think the more important thing is a kind of deep instigation, how to make your breathing and music more introspective emotions. After a complete performance of this work, it seems that there is more understanding than before, and the music is full of nostalgia and full of gratitude.

This concert is just an ordinary intersection in life. Graduating soon, looking back four years along the way, this is a very slow but fleeting, very pleasant and rich but bitter and difficult growth process. Its influence can be enough to shape an attitude, a state of mind. This process will slowly make people learn to persist, learn to work hard, learn to accept, and learn to give up. In fact, many times, it is more difficult to learn the latter two. But most of the time, life always accepts more choices, and the burden is greater than acceptance. Then we can only cherish all the things we can have without doubt. Effort. For me, every step is a departure, a starting point, and another starting point for the next step. From this end to the other side, from today to tomorrow. What I hope at this time is not to let myself stop the tape with graduation. I feel that no matter whether it is a long time or a short time, let the time flow away, if I find that I have stayed in the original place without Any change is a terrible thing. As long as you don't stop, hope will always be there.

After four years of study , I can clearly see that I am far from playing the piano and interpreting the gap between the works, and I have become more aware of how long I have to go. Looking back on the days that have passed in the past four years, the only gratitude that is filled in my heart at this time is that it means completeness for life, but it is always limited, and moderate nostalgia has real meaning. Because everyone has to face their next life, thinking about their next steps. The gratitude at this moment may be true infinity. I am grateful for my luck, the teachers who have given me selflessness, and the people and things that have appeared in my life for four years. This is the four years of growth, the four years of change, and graduation is like turning around. Maybe my turn is not exciting enough, not gorgeous enough, but after turning around, I will always remember these four years, I thank it for bringing me too much. too much. I will keep going, and because of the many lucky years in these four years, I will be more determined in the future than before!
