Anyone could have fallen asleep peacefully last night.
Maybe that’s why Lin Tian stayed up late to finish it.
Seeing Gan Yanyu’s somewhat gloomy mood, Lin Tian understood her thoughts.
However, he didn’t rush to comfort her.
Instead, he went straight to Gan Yanyu’s side and patted her shoulder,
"It’s okay, I’ve finished the composition. You’ll be busy with the main event next."
Lin Tian looked at the opened sheet music on the piano.
He immediately recognized that Gan Yanyu was playing the "Moonlight" piece he had composed last night.
"How does it feel?" Lin Tian asked.
The topic finally shifted back.
Hearing this, Gan Yanyu suddenly became excited,
"Yes... Lin Tian, I was just about to tell you."
Gan Yanyu looked at the piece, her expression complex, yet as if she had discovered a treasure, she appeared somewhat exhilarated,
"This piece... it’s so beautiful... really beautiful, but it’s so strange....." Get full chapters from NovelHub(.)net
Lin Tian didn’t expect Gan Yanyu to use that word to describe the piece.
"Yes, I played it all noon but couldn’t find the right emotion. It’s... very different, completely unlike anything I’ve felt with other pieces I’ve played..."
Gan Yanyu said earnestly, yet somewhat frustratedly.
As she spoke, her brows unconsciously furrowed as if she were pondering.
Seeing the distressed look on Gan Yanyu’s face, a look she hadn’t shown in front of Lin Tian since the Yingqin Cup.
Lin Tian knew that what he feared most had happened.
——Gan couldn’t resonate with it in a short time.
Just like Lin Tian had anticipated during his composition last night.
Debussy’s music is too abstract, abstract to the point of being entirely narrative-free.
It’s unlike some short stories.
Based on the historical context or the author’s life experience, you can more or less imagine the emotions the author wanted to express during the composition.
But this "Moonlight" is different.
Even if Lin Tian explained Debussy’s entire resume to Gan Yanyu, she might not grasp it at all.
On a slightly carefree note,
Seeing Gan Yanyu faced with a rare difficult situation she hadn’t encountered in a long time.
Lin Tian felt a bit relieved.
Because this time, Lin Tian had once again composed the piece on his own, and he had spent the whole previous day talking with Tuoba Jianhui without Gan Yanyu’s help,
Otherwise, the girl would once again feel guilty about not contributing anything.
Whenever Gan Yanyu talked to Lin Tian about composition, claiming she contributed nothing,
Lin Tian found it hard to stay serious.
Moonlight and Cat is a duo, with Lin Tian responsible for composing, managing the account, releasing videos daily, and then at the end of the month, they’d find out that their album sales exploded, Lin Tian got MVP! 13.0 carry game!
While Gan Yanyu was always just waiting for Lin Tian to finish composing to hit the stage and perform...
Gan Yanyu is a freeloader!
This month, by that logic, Gan Yanyu’s score would be 3.0!
.....Can you calculate it like that?
Definitely not, right.
"Can you explain it a bit clearer?"
Retracting his thoughts, Lin Tian inquired.
What do you mean by "strange," "different."
Such descriptions are too abstract for Lin Tian to understand.
Indeed, in terms of finding the right emotion, Lin Tian couldn’t be of much help.
Because he himself didn’t really know.
Even if he could thoroughly understand "Moonlight," the piece and Debussy’s essence.
Knowing the imagery that the piece conveys.
It didn’t mean he could incorporate these elements into the performance.
If it were that easy, anyone could become a world-class performer just by skimming through Baidu Encyclopedia.
So, only Gan Yanyu can accomplish this.
When it comes to this dimension of performance, Lin Tian can only play a supportive and guiding role.
"How do I say this..."
Gan Yanyu looked at the sheet music, lost in thought.
"I want to interact through this piece, but I found that... no one is sitting across from me."
Even more abstract.....
Even with Gan Yanyu speaking so abstractly,
In this world, there is one person who understands her, someone equally quirky.
That person is Lin Tian.
Lin Tian understood her.
He knew how Gan Yanyu played.
She possesses an unparalleled sense of immersion that no one else has. Every time she plays, she attempts to completely place herself in the musical world, experiencing it firsthand.
Like the "E Minor Cello Concerto."
Gan Yanyu would transcend a hundred years, returning to an era rife with war.
Engaging in a dialogue with Elgar’s lonely soul from a century ago.
Through such immersive involvement,
Gan Yanyu’s cello becomes powerfully intoxicating and impactful.
When faced with "Moonlight."
Gan Yanyu hit a snag.
The young girl, as usual, packed her bags, crossed a hundred years, and arrived in the world of "Moonlight."
What awaited her was only a beautiful landscape.
And Debussy’s little prank.
No one was there, no story, no conflict, and even the emotions were perpetually bland and consistent.
Leaving Gan Yanyu standing there, at a loss.
No wonder Gan Yanyu described the piece as "special."
To her, it surpassed the conventional approach she used when playing.
It’s normal to be disoriented.
"It should be fine after a few more tries."
This piece isn’t actually difficult; the challenge is in its expression.
