‘The “Prelude and Fugue in G minor” was another prelude from Bach’s “The Well-Tempered Clavier”, which Henry had played earlier.
Jordan enjoyed a fair challenge. Since Henry had played a prelude from Bach’s “The Well-Tempered Clavier”, he would play a prelude from the same piece too. And Jordan’s choice of this prelude would definitely move the guests more than Henry’s earlier performance.
This prelude had tens of millions of views on music platforms. Even those who didn’t play the piano or listen to classical music would usually recognize the familiar tune.
Henry had heard of this prelude before. He knew that the speed of this piece was around 100 beats per minute. To play the piano blind at such a fast speed was simply a fool’s dream! He had expected Jordan to play something simple like “Twinkle Twinkle Little Star’.
But this piece! To play this piece blind at the proper speed, one had to be highly coordinated with his hands. Henry didn’t believe that anyone in this world could do it!
Jordan snorted coldly at Henry’s provocation. “You want to acknowledge me as your teacher? I’m sorry, but you are not worthy! I don’t accept arrogant students!”
“You…”
Henry was furious, but he did not continue to argue with him. Anyway, Jordan was boasting in front of so many people. Henry wanted to see how he would live up to his claims!
It would not be too late for Henry to reprimand Jordan after he had failed!
The arena fell silent. Jordan placed his hands on the piano keys. At that moment, Lauren was still holding Jordan’s fingers as she guided him, “Hubby, this is middle C.”
“Okay.”
Jordan pretended he could not see and that he only managed to find the piano keys with his wife’s guidance.
Then.
Once his fingers pressed down on the keys.
A soothing melody flowed out of the piano!
Jordan’s hands danced over the piano keys. His speed was the same as the original. He did not slow down at all because of his blindness. Moreover, his accuracy was 100 percent!
It was true that Henry had some talent. Not only was his jumping skills outstanding, but he also had a good ear. So he would be able to detect if Jordan played a single wrong note!
However, after Jordan had been playing for nearly half a minute, Henry was surprised to find that he did not play a single note wrong!
“How is this possible?!”
Henry looked at Jordan in shock.
“If one has a son, he should be like Jordan!”
Jordan’s father-in-law, Stefan, smiled in relief when he saw his son-in-law’s blind performance.
Martin was shocked. “What kind of training did the Steele family give him?! He can play blind! He’s too outstanding!”
Even Marissa was bewildered. “Is Jordan… that formidable?”
She hoped that her son-in-law would be trash so that Lauren could divorce him without any qualms. However, even she had to admire his outstanding performance!
Needless to say, the other guests were all stunned.
The only person who should not be surprised was Lauren. She knew that Jordan was pretending to be blind.
Even so, she was also covering her mouth in shock! She realized that Jordan was not looking at the piano keys at all. Instead, his face was pointed into the distance, his eyes closed.
“He… is really playing blind!”
It was just a classic Bach piece. There was no need for Jordan to win against Henry with deception. Play the piano blind? So what? Jordan could do it with ease!
