Before, at the invitation of Chinese Photography Network, I asked me to talk about a photo I took about Piano Prince Richard Clayderman's photo shoot when he was playing. It was autumn, and the topic suddenly brought me into a fairytale warm and romantic world in "Autumn Whispers" and free from the cycle of time.
In late autumn, the charm of autumn is undoubtedly revealed, and the path with scattered leaves is alone and haggard. The fallen leaves are gentle, but they give heavy memories, memories that cannot be lost. In the second, the thoughts in the distance broke the silence of autumn.

It was a winter night welcoming the arrival of the New Year. The starry sky in Wuhan was as beautiful as the fireworks set in the sky. However, what is more intoxicating is that in the Wuhan Piano Taiwan Theater, some citizens are touching their hearts and listening to the classic work "Whispers of Autumn" played by the piano prince Richard Clayderman.
That night, as a special invited reporter, I was fortunate to go on stage to go deep into the scene for interviews and photos.
This time is a performance of Richard Kerderman New Year's Piano Concert China Tour (Wuhan Station). Richard Clayderman specially invited 10 children from Wuhan "Playing Stars" to play "I Love Beijing Tiananmen" with him. Citizens are also lucky to listen to the master himself playing "Whispers in Autumn", " Commemoration of Love ", "Destiny", etc.
Richard said that every audience who came to listen to his concert was his friend, and he was willing to devote all his emotions and enthusiasm to his friends to perform every carefully selected song. It is understood that Richard Clayderman and the "Performing Star" use pianos to play, both are provided by the Wuhan Qintai Piano Museum.
Richard Claydermann was born in Paris, France in 1953 and is a famous piano performing artist. His sincere, touching, passionate and dreamy piano sound touches the hearts of every listener. Every time I hear Richard Clayderman's music, I always feel romance and tenderness unconsciously. I also feel different emotions in my heart by listening to the music he plays again and again, and only then do I realize that my heart has always needed gentle care.
The piano sound of "I Love Beijing Tiananmen" was played in Wuhan Qintai Grand Theater . The seats were full and the audience was enthusiastic. Since I am a special invitation interview reporter, "Special invitation" provides me with greater freedom to shoot from multiple angles. Without affecting the performer and viewer, I used the right of "special invitation" to the maximum extent for my shooting. At the beginning, I frequently changed the "long gun" lens, used upward shooting, downward shooting, close-up shooting, etc., and took some photos from multiple angles. After viewing, I found it unsatisfactory. Later, I chose to use the most conventional head-on mid-scene and used continuous shooting mode to take this shot of Richard Clayderman looking up at the score. The illumination of the side backlight on the scene outlined a perfect outline for the characters.
For Richard Clayderman, he can play "Autumn Whispers" perfectly with his eyes closed. Looking up at the score is like buying a lottery ticket, and the chance is very low. At that time, I was holding the camera and staring at the subject of the subject, waiting for more than two or three minutes. When Richard Clayderman looked up unconsciously, I took four or five photos in a row, and finally selected the only photo with my eyes open to look at the music score. After the photos of
came out, it seemed that they were a little "taste". Later, when I changed the overall photo from color to black and white, I suddenly realized that "black and white" was the photo effect I wanted.

In the 1980s, I don’t know when, Richard Kerdermann had a whirlwind in China, and it has been unstoppable until now. Compared with other piano masters, this one is impressive. Nearly half a century has passed, and many pianists have emerged, but we still can’t forget Richard Kerdermann, the piano prince. "Fate", "To Alice", "Rose Life", "Autumn Whispers", etc. These famous European and American songs, whether classical or modern, can penetrate into our ears by popping out of his slender fingers and even into the beautiful hearts of the viewers.
However, I prefer the prince's "Whispers in Autumn", which has a simple melody that expresses low-key gorgeousness. What it brings me is a beautiful feeling and a sublimation of the soul.
The dreamy season of autumn, it is like the wind, gently blowing across the world, bringing a touch of coolness to people; it is more like a poem, a long poem, depicting a changing melody...
His piano music works are deeply loved by music fans all over the world, and he has come to China for performances many times. The touch between classical and modern works has produced subtle sparks and melodious melody, which is an important factor that has lasted for "Whispers in Autumn" and has been passed down to this day.
