My girlfriend is a cellist

Chapter 120 Cello Concerto in E minor

During the performance just now, Lin Tian found that he was facing a very difficult problem.

Gan Yanyu plays better when playing with herself.

That’s because Gan Yanyu feels more confident when playing with herself.

Confidence is what Gan Yanyu lacks now.

It’s not that she is incapable, it’s just that she lacks confidence that leads to her poor condition.

In fact, she has that ability.

But Lin Tian is different.

He found that after leaving Gan Yanyu, his strength seemed to be really weak!

It's not a problem of technique, it's an emotional problem.

Of course, this is not possible, as it is based on the comparison with the state during ensemble performance.

In the performance just now.

Lin Tian discovered that when he tried to learn Gan Yanyu's playing method, exploring how to complete the performance alone, and wanted to feed this feeling back to his own solo.
The effect will only get worse and worse.

And when Lin Tian put aside all the distracting thoughts in his mind.

When you cooperate with Gan Yanyu wholeheartedly, the effect will return to the normal feeling, and it will get better and better.

Like,
Lin Tian wants to improve his gluing skills.

However, he felt that playing by himself was never as satisfying as playing in a duo with girls.

Because under normal circumstances, playing alone is generally more comfortable than playing with a girl. In a duo, mental happiness often exceeds physical happiness.

However, this girl seems to have some kind of magic. When being with her, it is more comfortable than when Lin Tian plays alone, so people have to study her.

It's very evil.

So, during the duo-queuing process, Lin Tian tried to learn the girl's skills and try to find out why it would be more fun to duo-queued with her.

I plan to learn it and use it next time I play solo, so that I can enjoy the experience of playing in a duo without a girl.

As a result, Lin Tian ended up in failure.

You can't learn it, you can't learn it at all.

Facts have proved that Lin Tian can only exert his full strength when he plays as a supporting role.

"."

Lin Tian thought seriously.

Could it be that Gan Yanyu and I really can't live without each other?

But this definitely wouldn't work. Lin Tian couldn't perform with Gan Yanyu on her stage.

Similarly, Gan Yanyu could not take Lin Tian’s art exam with him.

Do I really have to think of a solution?

Turn on your camera.

Lin Tian returned to his position.

After the previous processing, the recording base of the two people has now taken shape.

Under the piano, a red carpet was laid on the floor.

A bouquet of red roses is placed on the piano.

In the background, on the counter, there is a phonograph and an old-fashioned radio.

On the wall, there is an oil painting full of medieval European characters.

Combined with warm lighting, the atmosphere is perfect, and it feels like being in an ancient castle.

"Teacher Gan."

"Ok?"

"."

"Nothing, let's get started."

Lin Tian said.

They are musicians.

Musicians should look for the answer in music.

Although a little confused, Gan Yanyu still nodded.

Official recording begins!
As the bow collides with the strings, the leisurely and low piano sound flows smoothly like a piece of music.

A slow, silent affection began to flow.

Cello Concerto in E minor.

What kind of extremely sad piano sound is this?
Along with the music, we travel through a hundred years and arrive at that war-torn era.

The world is in ruins, with stories of couples being torn apart and families being torn apart everywhere.

Lin Tian felt it all while playing.

Since he couldn't play like Gan Yanyu, he tried to appreciate the song in his own way. He didn't have the infectious ability like Gan Yanyu, so what was his advantage?
Composer.

Although the word "composer" should be put in quotation marks.

However, this is indeed Lin Tian’s advantage.

The memories of his past life allowed him to know what kind of stories were behind all the classical music.

Therefore,
What did he hear during this performance?
The sounds of fighting and crying.

Then
Is this just a song about pain, sadness and sorrow?
This is what the 62-year-old Elgar wanted to show everyone after he turned evil and vowed not to create peaceful music anymore?
Is it just to show his painful inner world, hoping that everyone will reflect and remember forever the pain that this war has brought to people?
No, of course not!!
Obviously, what Elgar wanted to convey was not just sadness.

"~"

Listen carefully—

In this long-flowing music.

It was more like a docile little deer, licking its wounds carefully, even though its feet were filled with the corpses of its companions.

But ahead is home and hope.
Although you are the only one left, congratulations, you still persevered until the arrival of light.

So, please turn your back to your deceased loved ones and keep going.

Go towards where the sun shines.
The cello melody is filled with the light of the setting sun, not scorching, but warm.

Between the light and dark of the narrative, Elgar's thoughts are flowing slowly, distant and heavy.

Even the variations in the notes seem cautious, like a child who dares not go far away, always looking back at his door.
In this intention.

Lin Tian’s piano became heavier and heavier.

It didn't speed up without thinking, but infused every key with extremely saturated affection, in which, together with Gan Yanyu's cello.
Lin Tian just kept playing and playing.

At this moment, he seemed to finally understand Elgar, even though he did not talk to him directly.

[Skills have been broken through! ]

[Piano Skill (Emerald) → (Diamond)]

As the system interface suddenly appeared, a comfortable feeling flowed through my body.

Suddenly,

Lin Tian felt that he was becoming more adept at playing the piano!
The hands couldn't help but dance an even more fascinating dance on the piano keys.

at the same time.

Gan Yanyu, who had also reached the mood of the song, closed her eyes.

Completely immersed in this music.

A tear oozed from the corner of the girl's eye.

Flowed down.

"."

When the girl finished playing, she paused for a few seconds before opening her eyes again.

before.

Lin Tian stood there, looking at her with a slight smile on his face.

"Lin Tian, ​​you."

Gan Yanyu widened her eyes in surprise, "When?"

"After the second climax, I stopped playing."

"what"

Gan Yanyu said in disbelief,

“So just now.”

"Just now, the last part was played entirely by you alone."

Lin Tian raised his index finger and said seriously,

"Look, you can still play the song well without me!!"

“Is it true?”

Gan Yanyu still found it a little unbelievable.

It was clear to her that she was able to immerse herself in the music so intently because of the sound of Lin Tian's piano.

As a result, Lin Tian told her that he didn't play the last part at all.

However, Gan Yanyu clearly felt that she heard the sound of the piano.
"Teacher Gan, here, I first want to say sorry to you."

"Ah?"

"Everything that happened before was my fault. Excessive pursuit of 'separate practice' is problematic in itself."

Lin Tian said word by word,

"We are partners! What we should really pursue is that even if the other person is not around, we should treat the other person as if they are right beside us and complete our performance!"
