不要放弃
著名的钢琴家及作曲家1．J．帕岱莱夫斯基预订在美国某大音乐厅表演.那是一个值得纪念的夜晚——黑色燕尾服,正式的晚礼服,上流社会的打扮.当晚的观众当中有一位母亲,带着一个烦躁不安的九岁孩子.小孩等待不耐烦,在座位上蠕动不停.母亲希望他在听过大师演奏之后,会对练习钢琴发生兴趣.于是,他不得已地来了.
到她转头跟朋友交谈时,他再也按捺不住,从母亲身旁溜走,被刺眼灯光照耀着的舞台上那演奏用的大钢琴和前面的乌木座凳吸引.在台下那批受过教养的观众不注意的时候,他瞪眼看着眼前黑白颜色的琴键,把颤抖的小手指放在正确的位置,开始弹奏名叫《筷子》的曲子.
观众的交谈声忽然停止下来,数百张表示不悦的眼睛一起看过去.被激怒、困窘的观众开始叫嚷：“把那男孩子弄走!”
“谁把他带进来的?”
“他母亲在哪里?”
“制止他!”
在后台,钢琴大师听见台前的声音,立即知道发生了什么事.他赶忙抓起外衣,跑到台前,一言不发地站到男孩身后,伸出双手,即兴地弹出配合《筷子》的一些和谐音符.二人同时弹奏时,大师在男孩耳边低声说：“继续弹,不要停止.继续弹……不要停止……不要停止.”
我们也是如此.我们努力工作,其效果就如小孩在大演奏厅中弹奏《筷子》一般.就在我们快要放弃时,忽然大师出现,弯身低声对我们说：“现在继续弹下去,不要停止.”继续……
不要停止；不要停止,他为我们即兴演奏,在恰当的时候,奏出恰当的旋律.

答案

Don't Quit
Ignacy Jan Paderewski (November 6, 1860 - June 29, 1941) OBE was a Polish pianist, composer, diplomat and politician, and the third Prime Minister of Poland.
Ignace Jane Paderewski, the famous composer-pianist, was scheduled to perform at a great concert hall in America. It was an evening to remember — black tuxedos and long evening dresses, a high-society extravaganza. Present in the audience that evening was a mother with her fidgety nine-year old son. Weary of waiting, he squirmed constantly in his seat. His mother was in hopes that her son would be encouraged to practice the piano if he could just hear the immortal Paderewski at the keyboard. So, against his wishes, he had come.
As she turned to talk with friends, her son could stay seated no longer. He slipped away from her side, strangely drawn to the ebony concert grand Steinway and its leather tufted stool on the huge stage flooded with blinding lights. Without much notice from the sophisticated audience, the boy sat down at the stool, staring wide-eyed at the black and white keys. He placed his small trembling fingers in the right location and began to play “chopsticks”. The roar of the crowd was hushed as hundreds of frowning faces pointed in his direction. Irritated and embarrassed, they began to shout,
“Get that boy away from there!“
“Who’d bring a kid that young in here?“
“Where’s his mother?”
“Somebody stop him!”
Backstage, the master overheard the sounds out front and quickly put together in his mind what was happening. Hurriedly, he grabbed his coat and rushed toward the stage. Without one word of announcement he stooped over behind the boy, reached around both sides, and began to improvise a countermelody to harmonize with and enhance “chopsticks”. As the two of them played together, Paderewski kept whispering in the boy’s ear,
“Keep going, don’t quit. Keep on playing… don’t stop… don’t quit.“
And so it is with us. We hammer away on our project, which seems about as significant as “chopsticks” in a concert hall. And about the time we are ready to give up, along comes the Master, who leans over and whispers, “Now keep going, don’t quit. Keep on… don’t stop, don’t quit.” as He improvises on our behalf, providing just the right touch at just the right moment.
