Sylvia Garcia.
American pianist.
She was a world-famous pianist, and Jo Seong-hyeon had even heard of her name.
The reason was not known in detail, but Sylvia stayed in Korea for a very long time.
I even told the media that I was staying in Korea for about a week a month.
As a result, Sylvia Garcia’s concerts were held relatively frequently in Korea.
Considering her ransom, it was actually not an easy task, so it was literally held ‘relatively’ frequently.
Chaeyoon also looked very excited because it was going to a concert after a long time.
“Chae Yoon-ah, are you okay?”
“yes.”
“Do you know who we are going to the concert today?”
At Jo Sung-hyun’s question, Chae-yoon thought for a moment and then shook her head.
I told you once, but it looks like you forgot.
“My name is Sylvia Garcia, and she’s a very famous pianist.”
“Hey… .”
It’s a recital without any other orchestra.
Jo Sung-hyun was also very curious about how wonderful he would perform with just the piano.
“It’s huge. Is not it?”
The Seoul Arts Center where the concert was held was very large.
I want to go inside, so I move, but Chae-yoon sighs.
Jo Sung-hyun turned his head at the child’s sigh and looked down at Chae-yoon.
“Chae Yoon-ah, why are you like this?”
“There are too many stairs.”
At Chae-yoon’s words, Seong-hyeon turned his head and glanced straight ahead.
Obviously, there are a lot of stairs.
Jo Sung-hyeon burst out laughing and held out his hand to Chae-yoon.
The child shook his head.
As if he was about to climb up, the child took Jo Seong-hyeon’s hand and took a step forward.
He sighed because there were a lot of stairs, but he didn’t want to be hugged by Jo Seong-hyeon.
In the end, Jo Seong-hyeon and Chae-yoon slowly climbed the stairs.
They came in abundantly and ended up having a simple meal nearby.
Even when I came to the Seoul Arts Center 30 minutes before the concert started, it was full of people.
Seeing everyone standing in line to buy a brochure, Jo Seong-hyeon scratched his cheek.
I wondered if there was a need for a pamphlet like that, but I thought it would be more helpful to appreciate the concert as it would contain explanations about the music and the pianist Sylvia Garcia.
“Chae Yoon-ah. Shall we buy one of those too?”
There was still time to spare, and the entrance had not yet begun.
Purchasing the brochure was not difficult.
After standing in line for about 10 minutes, Jo Sung-hyeon and Chae-yoon were finally able to purchase the brochure.
three thousand won.
It wasn’t a big deal, but there was a price for a brochure in addition to the price of the concert, so I tilted my head a little.
I don’t know much about this culture, so I wondered why the brochure wasn’t included in the price of the concert ticket.
Holding the pamphlet, Jo Seong-hyeon and Chae-yoon had to climb the stairs again.
Now the entrance to the concert hall has begun, and Seong-hyeon and Chae-yun are on the second floor.
Working hard up the stairs, Jo Sung-hyun and Chae-yoon were able to sit down.
“There are so many people… .”
The seat is full.
Seeing that hundreds of seats were filled, Jo Sung-hyeon also nodded.
“I know. A lot.”
“cool… .”
Chae-yoon mumbled like a whisper.
It seemed great to be able to perform on such a big stage as a child.
Chaeyoon had also performed in the hall during a competition, but at that time there were a lot of audiences, probably around twenty or thirty.
You may be envious of this atmosphere and feeling.
Jo Sung-hyun was a bit far from the classics, so I wasn’t really in awe or anything, but it felt cool.
People paid a lot of money to come here to hear Sylvia Garcia’s music and her performance.
Hundreds of people came just to focus on her music.

Music you want to listen to after spending time and money.
It’s probably not just because of the name Sylvia Garcia.
Obviously, it’s proof that her music has fascinated people.
“It is expected. Is not it?”
“yes… .”
The child looked at the stage with twinkling eyes.
The reaction is stronger than when I came to the concert of pianist Jeong Se-yeon.
It means that Chaeyoon is more immersed in the piano, and it also means that the child knows the piano better and is captivated by the music.
Jo Sung-hyun opened the pamphlet he had just purchased and read them one by one.
Just listing Sylvia Garcia’s photos and career list filled two pages.
As such, she was a capable pianist and had a lot of experience.
The piece that Sylvia Garcia will perform today is Beethoven’s Piano Sonata.
“I want to see you too.”
Chae-yoon stretches out her hand and speaks.
Cho Seong-hyeon handed the pamphlet to the child.
The child eagerly read the pamphlet to see what was so strange.
-The concert is going to start soon… .
While Chae-yoon was reading the brochure diligently, announcements began to flow.
Announcements that tell you about concert etiquette.
Seong-hyeon Jo took one last picture of Chae-yoon, and then turned off his smartphone.
It’s the weekend, so no one will contact you.
An announcement was made, but the concert did not start immediately.
After another 5 minutes, the lights went out.
The lights only illuminated the stage.
Next to him, Chae-yoon is nervous and leans forward.
Since it was on the second floor, it seemed that leaning slightly gave Chaeyoon a better view.
Jo Seong-hyeon glanced at whether the child would fall forward, then moved his gaze toward the stage again, hoping not to fall.
Sylvia Garcia was wearing a black dress.
The look in his eyes was charismatic.
Literally, it feels like the person itself is hard.
How about the piano she shows?
Sylvia Garcia bowed slightly to greet the audience.
Then, sit right down on the piano chair.
She looked relaxed.
Slowly place your hands on the keyboard.
Time seemed to slow down.
follow.
Softly, the playing begins.
Jo Sung-hyun’s eyes lit up.
There was no objection to listening to the light and soft performance.
It feels like it has all the advantages that a piano sonata should have.
follow.
The performance continued.
Seong-hyun Cho fell in love with Sylvia Garcia’s piano without realizing it.
Her performance was quite different from the performances that Jo Sung-hyun had heard so far.
The feeling is very different from when I came to the concert of pianist Jeong Se-yeon.
At that time, Jo Seong-hyeon felt free to play pianist Jeong Se-yeon.
I also thought that maybe it could be similar to Chaeyoon’s piano.
But now, listening to Sylvia Garcia’s piano, what Seonghyun Cho feels.
‘I think it’s closer to my performance than Chaeyoon’s piano.’
Sylvia Garcia’s performance was a little closer to Cho Sung-hyun’s music than Chae-yoon’s music.
This was by no means to say that Cho Sung-hyun could play as well as Sylvia Garcia.
just that it’s that way.
different. follow.
Sylvia Garcia’s performance basically had a fairly strong frame.
And at the same time.
She was perfectly expressing Sylvia Garcia’s unique characteristics freely.
There is a frame, but there is no feeling of being trapped in it.
Rather, there is a frame that allows for much more freedom.
There are rules, and although it feels rigid, he finds his own freedom in it and expresses it.
It was so strange.
Is it possible to play like this?
Hearing Sylvia Garcia’s performance, Cho Seong-hyeon thought that way.
There is certainly no perfect answer for music.
Sylvia Garcia’s performance is perhaps the answer that is very close to the perfect answer.
Sylvia Garcia’s performance was impressive.
Jo Seong-hyeon was able to calm down a bit by swallowing one gulp.
Suddenly, I wondered.
He is reacting like this, but how does Chae-yoon look?
When I turned my head to look at the child, Chae-yoon was literally unable to take her eyes off Sylvia Garcia.
She looked at Sylvia Garcia as if possessed by something, and focused her gaze on her fingertips.
Seong-hyeon smirked.
Chae-yoon also had a face that seemed to have fallen very well.
‘But it’s not as good as the last time I saw the Kingdom of the Winds movie.’
What is the difference?
It may have been that I was a little more sensitive to the music of ‘Kingdom of the Wind’ because it was my first time seeing the movie theater.
Or maybe Chae-yoon grew up a little more than then and thought that it was a piano that could catch up to Sylvia Garcia’s piano.
Anyway, what is certain is that Chaeyoon is also feeling a lot while listening to Sylvia Garcia’s performance.
Time passed quickly.
Although the concert lasted more than an hour and lasted for nearly two hours, Jo Sung-hyeon and Chae-yoon did not say anything while the concert was over and concentrated on the music.
Even during the short break in the middle, we didn’t even talk to each other because we were thinking about the performance we just heard.
After the concert is over, the lights are turned on.
Jo Sung-hyeon and Chae-yoon finally came to their senses and took a deep breath.
“It was no joke. Is not it?” nod.
The child responds by nodding his head.
Obviously, it was a piano recital, how did it sound so rich?
I even felt like I was in a small orchestra.
“Your sister is cool.”
“haha. Are you Sylvia’s sister?”
“yes. If you’re cool, everyone told me you were my sister.”
“Who did that?”
“Mihyun.”
Jo Sung-hyun burst into laughter at the sudden appearance of the name.
There was a little bit of Mihyeon’s wacky appearance, but it seems that Chaeyoon learned a little about that from Mihyunie.
I wanted to sit a little longer and enjoy the afterglow, but everyone got up and left.
“Shall we go slowly now? Aren’t you hungry?”
“… little?”
Chae-yoon spreads her fingers slightly and shows a gesture of being a little hungry.
Looks like he ate too easily before the concert started.
“Let’s go home and do something to eat.”
“yes.”
The child answered right away.
Jo Seong-hyeon, who came down the stairs, glanced at the side where Silvia Garcia’s concert photo zone was located, and then moved.
No, to be precise, I was about to move.
If Chae Yoon-yi’s body had not moved as if it had stiffened, Jo Sung-hyun would have naturally left the Seoul Arts Center.
“Chae Yoon-ah, why are you like this?”
Jo Sung-hyun asked the child and turned his head in the direction Chae-yoon was looking.
And he saw.
A little boy standing with his mother.
Just as Chae-yoon was looking at the boy, the boy was also looking at Chae-yoon.
