Beethoven Reborn Episode 143
33. Chopin International Piano Competition(2)
【Summary report of the 17th Chopin International Piano Competition press conference]
last 11 days.
A press conference regarding the Chopin Competition was held at the Frédéric Chopin Museum Concert Hall..
The content presented at the event, attended by Chopin Association President Yertanya Zizy, Andrew Szyzanski (Director of Polish Radio 1), Jezerman Wach (Polish musician), TVP Kultura Director, and WBK Press Secretary, was as follows..
1. The 17th Chopin International Piano Competition will be broadcast live simultaneously on three leading Polish TV channels and Radio No. 1 and Radio No. 2..
2. The Chopin Association is in the process of implementing its own streaming platform so that classical music fans around the world can enjoy the Chopin International Piano Competition..
It cannot be used in this year's contest, but instead, this contest can be watched live on NewTube..
3. Hosted by the Frédéric Chopin Society, it has partnerships with the following organizations (Goggle, Regent Warehouse, Lexus, Polish National Philharmonic, Mississippi, WH, T.).
‘The Chopin Association, with the slogan 'Chopin without Borders', did its best to ensure that everyone who loves Chopin's music could join together with the decision to broadcast live on New Tube..
It is expected that the Chopin Association's policy of keeping pace with the changes of the times will strengthen the authority of the Chopin International Piano Competition..
As a side note, 76 of the 160 participants in the 17th Chopin International Piano Competition preliminary round are from East Asia (27 from Japan, 25 from China, and 24 from Korea), so Asian pianists are expected to strive harder..
Among them, the person who stands out the most is Bae Do-bin of South Korea..

4The Chopin Association's press conference for the 17th Chopin International Piano Competition held on the 11th was good news for music fans around the world..
There were many people who had difficulty watching the Chopin International Piano Competition live, but I couldn't help but be happy when I heard that this was the first time in the history of the Chopin Competition that it would be broadcast live on the Internet through NewTube..
In addition, there was little bias between East and West and countries among those who qualified to participate in the preliminary round..
Many people looked forward to the broadcast of the finals in October as the policy was consistent with the slogan put forward by the Chopin Association..
That's how much attention was paid to the preliminaries, and as expected, the person who attracted the most attention was Bae Do-bin, who has shown incredible performances over the past few years..
I came a little early to adjust my condition, but a day later, I was able to meet Park Sun-young and Nina Kebe Hiri..
“Hurray! It's Dobbin! Seonyoung, hurry up. hurry!”
“I have a lot of baggage! If you're going to run, you go first. a little!”
Nina, who came running from far away, was still lively..
The hair was much shorter than when I saw it before, and it looked cool with the sides shaved off..
I don't know how they did it, but even though the top hair is smooth, it stands upright and the roots are fixed..
“You've grown a lot! Unit 1!”
“2My breath has grown a lot too..”
‘I'm glad.’
I heard it later.
Nina, something bad happened when she was auditing a class in college..
Himura didn't tell me any more than that. I couldn't find out the details, but he probably thought it would have a bad influence on the 'young' me, so I don't think it was something that was taken lightly..
I could have asked, but it would have been an invasion of Nina's privacy, so I was just worried..
I was relieved that he seemed to have adapted well..
“Ahaha! It’s been a while since I heard something like that. It's still strange. uh? Dobin’s friend also came.?”
“Ah, ah, hello.”
Choi Ji-hoon saw Nina and greeted her nervously..
He seems to have studied German a little while, so he understands simple conversations..
‘You probably don't really like it.’
He occasionally asked me about Nina, but since they were eight years apart in age, I just assumed it was the feelings of an adolescent boy..
‘no. I can't believe I learned German.’
okay. no way.
To borrow a phrase I saw on the Internet, ‘I’m against this couple.’.
“Seonyoung, Seonyoung. I'm hungry.”
“Ugh. Say it one more time and it will be the twentieth time. Now that I’ve met the CEO, I’m going to go eat anyway..”
Nina’s face widened at Park Sun-young’s words..
“Boss, let’s go eat something delicious..”
“haha. is it so. Because we are still there. I looked around and found a good place near the Warsaw Philharmonic Hall..”
“great! Dobbin, let’s go quickly..”
I can't stop it.
I sat down at a restaurant not far from my accommodation..
Even after looking at the menu, I didn't know what to order, but Choi Ji-hoon, the butler's grandfather, and Park Seon-young looked the same..
“I have this and this.”
“what is that?”
Nina ordered food and asked for reference..
“I don't know.
“haha. Dobin, how about this??”
‘While I was thinking, ‘What are these kids doing?’ Himura showed me the menu and said,.
“Platzki is a potato pancake. Oh, it’s delicious to eat with zzpek too..”
“I'll take that..”
“Then me too.”
“Then me too.”
When everyone ordered the same menu, Himura smiled and said that he would order a moderate amount of food..
The group nodded together as if they had been waiting..
“May I take your order?”
“yes. Please melt two plates of platski and pierogi and ozzpek. What kind of salt is in pork cutlets??”
“We have rock salt sourced from the Mediterranean..”
“yes. Then, I would like two plates of that, please. For drinks, please provide water and lemonade according to the number of people..”
“All right.”
I can’t believe you even speak Polish!.
I realized once again that Himura is more capable than I thought..
Now that we've overcome a big hurdle, it's time to talk about things we haven't talked about before..
asked Nina.
“How is college life??”
“fun. The professor said he’d never seen someone as funny as me..”
“funny person?”
“I only pedaled with my right foot. Somehow it was very difficult.”
If you pedal with only one foot, it is not only difficult to get the timing right, but the sound is also likely to be different from what you intended..
‘Good thing you went to college.’
The performance itself was excellent, but the problem was that it was probably because I was self-taught..
I felt fortunate to have received a proper education in college..
The time I actually saw him playing was short, but I was so absorbed in the performance that I didn't even look at the bridge..
If it were like the old days when I couldn't hear the sound, I would have observed various parts..
I was so happy to find my ears that I forgot my good habits..
“Anything else?”
“There was this and that and I fixed it all! Just wait and see. If I win, I'll win 30,000 euros and give it to you..”
“It's my money so I don't have to..”
“what? Ahaha! It won't be easy?”
As we were chatting like that, the waiter brought out the food..
Food that looked like dumplings came out, and it looked like pierogi. When I took a bite, I could feel the rich mushroom flavor and juiciness..
‘Good.’
As expected, Himura. It's the right choice.
“This is delicious! Right, sir.?”
“haha. It's potato pancake. It's not too salty, but it's good..”
Platzki, a dish that looks like ground potatoes fried in oil, came with a thick sauce and vegetables, and it was also delicious..
“Himura.”
“ huh?”
“Wherever I go, I always seem to understand the language and culture..”
“iced coffee. When I worked at Exton, I moved around a lot. I was probably on a plane two months a year.?”
It's a terrible sound.
We gave Himura, who worked hard, a pierogi..
“Dobin.”
As I was filling my stomach, Choi Ji-hoon called me. When I turned my head and made eye contact, he whispered in a low voice..
“How old is Nina??”
“no.”
“uh? what?”
“If it doesn't work, it doesn't work..”
If Choi Ji-hoon meets someone, I hope that he will be an outgoing and kind person who can give strength to this special guy..
“oh! This is also delicious. Seonyoung, eat it. ah〜”
“I can eat by myself. Oh my.”
“ yes〜”
Park Sun-young, who had no choice but to take food from Nina Kebehiri, blushed as if she was embarrassed..
“Now, boss!”
“me, i'm fine.”
“ yes〜”
He is a lively person who gives strength.••…
“Dobin ah〜”
“Don't rush me. “Because I’m thinking about it.” I got a little confused.
After eating, I went out into the street..
I heard that the Warsaw Philharmonic Hall, where the Chopin Competition is held, is nearby, so I accepted Nina's suggestion to take a quick look around, and after walking for about 5 minutes, a handsome building with an ivory exterior came into view..
Flags from all over the world were hanging on the second floor terrace, and there was a stone statue between them..
‘Who is it.’
While I was walking slowly with that in mind, Nina asked Himura..
“Boss, you can't go inside.?”
“Please be patient today. I'll be busy tomorrow with the preliminaries..”
“it's a shame. right?”
I was wondering why Nina Kebehiri was so excited, and now I think I know why..
For her, this is her first time participating in the Chopin Competition..
A place where you can have your skills evaluated by others for the first time.
Since there was an audience, I could see how excited she would be for her first performance as the main character..
Because she was looking up at the Warsaw Philharmonic Hall with eyes so sparkling..
“When are the preliminaries??”
“second day.”
“I prepared a lot?”
“then! I did it just enough so that my fingers didn't break. If I had done a little more it might have broken..”
I don't think it contains the slightest exaggeration..
