Please, come home and practice the piano

The little car didn't know why the teacher was smiling so happily. She was also happy when the teacher was happy, and she started laughing along with him.

Laughing all the way home, she became familiar with the surrounding environment, and she saw the building of Wang Xiaohu's house.

"There is nothing to go around in the community. There is a small garden behind the building. In summer evenings, Teacher Chen and I occasionally feed mosquitoes near the small garden."

Li An pointed to the nearest building to the east and muttered something.

"Hmm!" Xiao Che said, which really shocked the teacher. She thought there must be something good in the small summer garden to attract the teacher.

It was already half an hour later when she got home. When she saw the teacher changing her slippers, Xiaoqi realized that she should also change her slippers, but her slippers were still in the suitcase.

"Wait." Li An changed into her slippers and quickly went to the cabin to get the slippers she prepared for the car. "I don't know how big your feet are. I bought them based on your height, so they may be a bit small."

"Thank you, teacher," Xiao Che quickly took the slippers.

She first squatted down and put the slippers by her feet, then began to untie the straps on her feet, took off her shoes, and finally stepped on the slippers the teacher bought for her twice. She looked up and said happily, "That's right." It's appropriate." Then she realized that the teacher was no longer at the door.

Instead, little Bawan walked around her and smelled her, and then Bawan raised his front paws and lay on her legs.

At this moment, a call came from the room, "Che Lin!"

The car gently took off Bao Wan's paw from his leg, and then walked quickly towards the sound.

The slippers the teacher bought were so comfortable to step on and had a soft base. She walked to the bathroom door thinking to herself.

"This red toothbrush is yours, the pink tube of toothpaste is for Teacher Chen and I, and the white tube is for you."

As he spoke, Li An picked up a dark green hose facial cleanser, "This facial cleanser is made from milk. You can use it or not, or use the one you brought with you. It's up to you. The gray towel is for me to wash my face. The white one is for me." The towel belongs to Teacher Chen, and the rainbow-colored towel is yours. You can use the new one, or you can use the one you brought."

"Teacher." Xiao Che's expression showed a hint of embarrassment, "I brought them all."

Ang Lee: "You can use whatever you want, but I have to introduce it to you clearly."

After a while, "If you need to take a bath here occasionally, watch the temperature here and make sure it doesn't go below 45. The weather will get cold soon. The water valve is hot on the left and cold on the right. Don't make a mistake."

Xiaoche scratched his head and showed an embarrassed expression.

Li An smiled: "Occasionally when needed."

Then, ""See this shelf? Just put the clothes you want to change here. "

"Remember, you must lock the door whenever you use the bathroom, otherwise Bawan will use his claws to open the door."

Car: "Huh?"

"Ok!"

After introducing the situation in the bathroom, Li An washed his hands, and the car also washed his hands.

"Same, left is cold and right is hot, come over here."

After washing his hands, Car followed Li An to the restaurant, and Li An opened the refrigerator door.

"Snacks, drinks, whatever you want to eat or drink, you can take it yourself. Don't be embarrassed. Your father has already given me all your living expenses at my place this semester."

"However, snacks and drinks must be used in moderation. They are full of preservatives. In addition, you must not drink beer. Remember?"

Car: "Yeah."

Xiao Che secretly asked Nail Ding for a sip of beer. It tasted terrible!

Then Li An opened the door of the refrigerator room, "The first and second floors were brought by your father, and they all have labels. The third floor is some quick-frozen food and raw meat. If you have to cook it yourself, forget it." Now, don’t cook by yourself when I’m not around.”

Li An plans to take Xiao Che to the Fenghe Restaurant downstairs tomorrow. He will let Xiao Che eat there while he is away. He is familiar with the boss and will make monthly payments by then.

Xiaoche: "Teacher, I can cook by myself."

"Hmm -" Li An thought for a moment, and Lao Che told him the same thing in the afternoon. Thinking about it, sometimes Xiao Che would have to touch the stove when he was hungry after studying or practicing the piano in the evening and wanted to get something to eat. .

"Come."

The teacher and student entered the kitchen, "You have also used this stove. Turn on the range hood before turning on the stove. Be sure to pay attention to safety."

Car: "Well! Teacher, where is the rice?"

Li An knelt down and opened a cabinet door: "Rice, flour and oil."

Then he opened the next door and said, "Bowls and chopsticks."

He stood up and threatened, "In a word, try not to touch the kitchen as much as possible."

Car: "Hee~"

When Li An saw this, he showed a rare seriousness towards the car: "Don't laugh at Che Lin, let me tell you, that is, you, if it were anyone else, I would not let him enter the kitchen when I am not at home."

Xiaoche felt the seriousness, and immediately put away his smile and stood at attention: "Remember the teacher!"

Li An suddenly became happy: "The military training is good."

Then, "What do you usually eat in the morning?"

Xiaoche: "Aunt Sang and my dad will make breakfast for me. Sometimes I boil my own eggs and take them with me, or buy some breakfast downstairs to eat on the way."

Li An nodded.

Xiaoche: "Teacher, what do you and Teacher Chen eat in the morning?"

Li An: "Cook millet porridge, fry an egg, we eat everything. Sometimes we also buy steamed buns downstairs in Yudong."

The car remembered.

"Come on," Li An looked at his phone. It was almost five o'clock.

The teacher and student finally came to the small car's cabin, "I'll help you make the bed, and you can clean up the cabinet yourself."

Xiaoche waved his hand: "Teacher, I can do it myself."

Li An: "Then do it yourself."

Before leaving Che Lin's cabin, Li An kicked 80,000 people out.

"Why is it your business everywhere? Get out of here."

As a result, Ba Wan apparently went out honestly, but when Li An went to the study room, he came back in a roundabout way.

The car was putting down the suitcase when he saw 80,000 people coming in again. He quickly raised his hand and said "sigh".

She also couldn't figure out why 80,000 people came back. Seeing 80,000 people lying down next to the box, she thought that she should just lie down.

She actually likes 80,000, a furry little clever one.

Just then, she heard the sound of piano coming from the study.

Beethoven!
As if a light shot out of his eyes, the car sped up.

She neatly stacked the autumn and summer school uniforms on the sheets the teacher bought for herself, and then stacked two T-shirts and two long-sleeved clothes worn under the school uniforms on top of the autumn school uniforms.

Then she took out two small opaque bags from the box. In just a moment, she stuffed the two bags into the deepest part of the pile of clothes.

Finally, there were three pairs of socks and one pair of shoes. The socks were placed in a small box in the cabinet. She walked out of the hut and put the shoes at the door. When she returned to the room, she glanced at the study room and saw the teacher sitting in front of Damizi.

accelerate!

It only took five minutes to make the bed. She didn't even bother to sit on the bed. She hurried to the study as soon as she made the bed.

Walking into the study quietly, the car stood obediently beside the piano.

Seeing the steady hands jumping on the keyboard, the joyful sound of the piano went straight to her head. It had been a long time since Xiao Che had heard the teacher play such a cheerful melody.

In other words, this piece of music has a kind of magic that can make people involuntarily enter a happy state.

After playing the first movement of Beethoven's Piano Sonata No. 20 three times, Ang Lee stopped his hand and turned his head, "Tell me how this music makes you feel?"

"Pleasant." Xiaoche blurted out, "It feels a bit like eating fruit candy."

Ang Lee: "Okay, tell me what the song you heard is and what its structure is."

Xiaoche thought for a while: "It's a sonata by Beethoven. It should be the first movement. It's not a fast Allegro. There are two themes in the exposition. The first theme is in G major, and the second theme is in D major. Development The part ends in the dominant key of the relative minor, and the second section of the recapitulation appears in the subordinate key, without a coda.”

Ang Lee was very satisfied with Xiao Che's answer and made no secret of the approval in his eyes: "You can already clearly distinguish the structure of traditional sonatas with your ears."

Xiaoche reluctantly nodded. If it was a traditional sonata structure, she seemed to be able to understand it.

"Don't be sorry," Ang Lee continued, "Why is there a subordinate tone in the second paragraph of the recapitulation? You didn't make it clear."

Xiaoche secretly thought that he was careless and blurted out: "In order to redefine the main tone."

Ang Lee: "Excellent."

"Remember, the main melody is the core element of a classical sonata, and all materials and motives are inseparable from the development around the main melody."

Xiaoche: "Teacher, I remember it."

Li An: "Che Lin, you have almost mastered the basic form analysis I told you, and the advantages your ears bring to you are starting to show more and more, but."

"Before entering the next stage of the music form analysis course, you must first use the music form analysis methods you have mastered now to help you overcome some problems encountered during performance in actual practice."

"This work is Beethoven's Sonata No. 49, the second first movement in Op. , G major, not too fast Allegro, beat . This work only has two movements, the second movement It's a minuet, in the key of G major, in time four and three."

"Beethoven's early works were written as exercises for some children to learn how to master sonatas, and the structure is just like what you heard."

As he spoke, Ang Lee took out a sheet of music from the piano and said, "I'll give you a week to practice it. I don't care how you practice, I just listen to the result."

"sit."

The car took the music and sat down. Ang Lee continued: "Burgmüller has finished practicing, and there are still four pieces of 849. You almost finished playing it before your teacher Chen left. Starting in mid-to-late October, we will enter Czerny 299 and You must be prepared for the systematic study of Bach’s creative compositions. In the next one to six months, these two works will be the focus of your practice.”

"Yeah." Xiaoche smiled.

Li An: "What are you laughing at?"

Xiaoche: "The first two textbooks Teacher Chen gave me are 299 and Bach's two creative compositions."

Li An smiled: "Did you bring them all?"

Car: "Yeah."

Ang Lee: "Okay, now let's talk about the specific process of the game."

"The registration deadline is November 11, and the competition will be from April to May next year."

“When we sign up, we have to submit our tracks, a total of five tracks.”

"First one, Haydn Mozart Beethoven, one of three, a sonata allegro movement."

"I initially plan to let you choose one piece from the works of Beethoven and Mozart. We will decide which piece to choose as we approach the last week of registration."

"What is certain now is the second mazurka, the fourth in a minor of Opus 17. This is a must-play, and we will start learning it in mid-November."

"The third Chopin Waltz and the fourth Chopin Nocturne, our song selection strategy is that you choose one and I choose the other."

"What do you mean, for example, if you choose a nocturne yourself, I will choose a waltz for you, and vice versa, understand?"

The car nodded.

“We start learning the nocturnes and waltzes in December.”

"The last dazzling song, let me explain to you what the dazzling song here means."

"It doesn't mean to show off any skills. It just allows you to play a piece that best demonstrates your overall level in addition to the required pieces."

"I have already chosen this piece for you. It is Bach's 14th three-part creative piece. You can listen to this piece without any problem. When will you start learning it, I will tell you. Before that, you can only listen to it. You cannot Practice by yourself, remember?”

The car nodded again.

"Is there anything unclear about the game arrangements?"

The car shook its head.

Li An: "Okay, let's finally talk about piano practice. From Monday to Friday, unless there are special circumstances, it will be forty minutes before lunch and one and a half hours after homework in the evening. We will tentatively decide on this. If it affects study , we will adjust in time.”

Xiaoche: "Teacher, if I can practice more, I can gain an extra hour and a half every day by not taking the bus."

Li An: "Be obedient, let's do this for now, Che Lin, competition is far less important than studying, you know?"

Xiaoche: "Teacher, I'm not here for the competition, I want to play the piano more."

Facing Xiao Che's expectant gaze, Li An pondered for a moment, and then said: "Practicing the piano is not as important as studying."

Xiaoche didn't understand, but she was willing to listen to the teacher, "Teacher, I understand."

Li An: "It's six o'clock. Are you hungry?"

Xiaoche shook his head: "Teacher, I ate a lot for lunch."

Li An: "How much difference is there in homework?"

Xiaoche: "There are still a few questions in the math paper that I haven't finished yet, I haven't finished the English paper yet, and I haven't written the handwritten newspaper yet."

Li An: "Practice now. Eat something until 8:30. You can continue to do your homework from 9 to 10:30."

After saying that, he stepped aside from Da Mizi, and Li An sat in front of Xiao Hei next to him, lifted the cover of the piano and started playing the scales, as if there was no other person in the room.

Xiaoche looked at the teacher, then sat in front of Damizi. Listening to the C major scale next to him, Xiaoche raised his hands and joined in the playing.

The two C major scales merged into one in the next second. In front of the two pianos, the teacher and the student touched the keys almost exactly the same and had the same expression. It was dark every day outside the window.

The teacher and student just played their own content, and they seemed to be one with each other. Occasionally, there would be a hint of Bach's fugue in the overlapping of two scale parts.

Ang Lee did not tell the little car that Bach's three creative compositions have multiple voices in parallel, nor did he remind the little car what to pay attention to with his ears at this moment.

Time flies by.

I don’t know when, next door, the 80,000-year-old unpacked the suitcase from the car and jumped onto the bed, where he lay down and took a nap.
