施坦威钢琴整音调律有感（2024年春节）

这架1929年施坦威（M）翻新的钢琴经过三个多小时的整音和调律，感觉音色柔和朦胧了一些，特别是手感的调整适合弹奏肖邦的作品……即兴弹奏肖邦作品片段以慰藉多年欣赏、弹奏练习肖邦的心灵！

刚看到有推荐肖邦演奏特色的书籍，“纪德”挚爱肖邦的一本书其中说到……肖邦的音乐自带一种“即兴感”，他不停探索，一点点发掘自己的思想。这种“犹豫”、“吃惊”和“突如其来”在过于完美、精确和客观的演奏中会失去魅力，仿佛一切都是预定好的。演奏不宜过快，要带着不确定性。乐句在指尖间逐渐形成，仿佛走出一条前人未走过的路。

……肖邦的音乐永远不会发出明亮的“全声”，而是以“半声”演奏的，正如他本人的演奏风格。他总是提示、猜测、渗透、引诱、劝说却从不肯定。自信又敞亮的演奏完全不适合他的音乐。……肖邦与诗人波德莱尔的共同点是他们对“修辞”、“朗诵”和“演说”的恐惧，他喜欢运用“惊讶”，体现在忽然转换乐曲氛围的某个单音上。……取悦自我而弹奏肖邦也是一种幸福的境界。

Steinway Piano Voicing and Tuning Experience (Spring Festival 2024)

This 1929 Steinway (M) piano, after more than three hours of Voicing and tuning, feels that the tone has become softer and more ethereal, especially the adjustment of the touch is suitable for playing Chopin's works... Improvising Chopin's works to soothe the soul that has been appreciating and practicing Chopin for many years!

Just saw a recommended book on Chopin's playing style, in a book where "Gide" expresses his love for Chopin, it mentions... Chopin's music carries a sense of "improvisation," he constantly explores, slowly uncovering his own thoughts. This "hesitation," "surprise," and "suddenness" would lose its charm in overly perfect, precise, and objective performances, as if everything were prearranged. The performance should not be too fast, it should carry uncertainty. The musical phrases gradually take shape at the fingertips, as if walking on a path that no one has walked before... Chopin's music will never produce bright "full voice," but is played in "half voice," just like his own playing style. He always hints, speculates, penetrates, entices, persuades but never asserts. Confident and open performances are completely unsuitable for his music... Chopin's commonality with the poet Baudelaire is their fear of "rhetoric," "recitation," and "oratory," he likes to use "surprise," manifested in a sudden change in the musical atmosphere on a certain note... Playing Chopin to please oneself is also a kind of happiness.
