Welcome everyone to enrich the small circle Chapter 677 Low-key(1/2)
Yang Jingxing sat down in front of the piano with his hands empty. The orchestra was not surprised. Judging from his previous analysis of the score, this guy could probably memorize it.
The Philharmonic seems a bit poor. The piano only costs a few hundred thousand, but it is well protected and the top cover is not opened. However, the rehearsal hall is only more than 200 square meters.
Lian Lixin made eye contact with the orchestra, urging the musicians who were still in school to get ready quickly, and then the atmosphere of everyone together was brewing. After a few seconds, Lian Lixin started his hand steadily and hit the first beat.
The piccolo fulfilled Yang Jingxing's previous request and was the first to play the first note played by the woodwind group. After the sustain, the other woodwinds came on stage.
After the two measures of woodwind showed a jumping melody and lively rhythm, the violin group and brass entered, and three parts appeared directly. Just as Lian Lixin commented, each part expressed clearly, and the texture was balanced and coordinated. A good start was reflected.
The theoretical level of the composer.
After hundreds of years of development and evolution of serious music, so many outstanding composers have created countless works and developed a variety of styles and techniques for future generations to appreciate and learn from.
The biggest challenge facing the new generation today is not to surpass those great composers who were sent to the altar in terms of genre. The more difficult thing is actually to innovate. Perhaps because they have learned too much and know too much, they are unwilling to follow the old path of others.
Although practitioners all know that the limited musical materials are a false proposition, reasonable innovation is indeed difficult. Qi Qingnuo obviously has high self-requirements. When she wrote this concerto, she was clearly avoiding Yang Jingxing's so-called innovative methods.
.In fact, when other students complete their homework, those who learn well from Yang Jingxing will also be recognized by He Hongchui.
Qi Qingnuo's efforts in this piece have several aspects. First, the orchestra's non-professional orchestration is more obvious. For example, the reasonable switching and crossover between brass and woodwinds should make the beginning listeners feel fresh.
Another point worthy of analysis is that Qi Qingnuo made different attempts in the relationship between the orchestra and the piano in parts. The content is relatively rich and there are many commendable details. This is also the reason why most composition students
Too lazy to think carefully when doing homework.
Of course, the most intuitive and obvious composition feature in the whole song is still on the piano. Maybe it is because there is no need to worry about the emotions or opinions of the performer. Qi Qingnuo is very open-minded. It is really because of being open-minded that he achieves both emotion and technique. The music
There are octave-jumping large sums and fine legato to express "yi", and there are steady rhythmic rising chords and a gentle melody to express "zhuang"...
Among the piano annotations, there are ppp and fff, and an sfp is also marked on a section that is very dissonant with the orchestra and challenges junior listeners.
After the orchestra laid the groundwork for half a minute, the piano started. The first impression of the "harmony" part was that the melody was pleasant. Not to mention the audience, the musicians also obviously liked it. Most people are more willing to talk about Mozart, probably because
This is simply the richest man in the world, far from being a nouveau riche.
Yang Jingxing played very seriously, almost intoxicated. The small movements of his upper body and arms matched the progression of the melody, and he seemed to be more devoted than he was to the masters or his own works.
Lian Lixin seemed to be very involved in the art, and his artistic expression and gestures seemed to have an audience.
This first pass was complete and relatively smooth. After all, it is a professional orchestra. If the Puhai Philharmonic performed above 80% when cooperating with well-known performers to perform master works, this will not be the case after receiving the new works.
In the first rehearsal two hours later, the overall performance was almost passable. Puyin's students could barely pass the exam at best.
During the rehearsal, I had to keep looking at the score. After Yang Jingxing put down his hand, most of the orchestra's eyes were on him.
This is our first collaboration, please be polite. Lian Lixin treated Yang Jingxing like a performer and led everyone in applause.
The applause was still warm, and Yang Jingxing quickly stood up and bowed in thanks. Many people applauded more continuously, and Yang Jingxing smiled innocently, looking embarrassed but said loudly: "I want to see if I made a mistake in my score..."
Lian Lixin nodded.
Yang Jingxing explained to the orchestra: "The score was just sent out last night. I didn't check it carefully. There may be some errors..." As he spoke, he walked to the first violin section. There were two pieces of music shared by eight people. Yang Jingxing looked at the inner one.
Chief's share.
After checking the score, Yang Jingxing didn't say anything and walked back to the woodwind group.
This is too obvious and too eager. Even though you are a professional player, why don't you allow a few wrong sounds in the first rehearsal? Everyone is so experienced in doing this, who doesn't know what you mean? One
There are several people using the music score. One person is wrong and the others are right. You come to check the music score? It shows that you can listen to the orchestra's wrong notes while playing the piano. How amazing is it, right?
It's amazing how many bad guys there are, right? Yang Jingxing's pretentiousness is really annoying, and the original surprise or interest in appreciation has disappeared from the faces of many musicians.
After looking at the music score for the woodwind group, Yang Jingxing looked at the copper pipes again.
The trombone player on the left said expressionlessly: "I just changed this part to the key of F. I didn't pay attention. I'm sorry."
Yang Jingxing quickly shook his head: "No, I'm afraid I made a mistake."
Even Lixin, as the leader, did not protect the musicians and let Yang Jingxing sneak around in the orchestra without a sense of collective honor. He waited until Yang Jingxing returned to the front before asking: "Is it okay?"
Yang Jingxing shook his head: "I haven't found it yet."
Lian Lixin looked at the orchestra for two seconds, then knocked on the music stand, and everyone hurriedly prepared.
Then we played it again, and the orchestra improved a lot on the basis of the previous performance. There were a lot less mispronouncements, and the coordination was slightly improved. The most obvious thing is that some of the veterans seemed to be more serious and focused.
After finishing it again, without clapping or anything, Lian Lixin began to emphasize the details again, and then he did it again and made some progress.
After three times, it was almost lunch time. Lian Lixin announced that he would take a break and rehearse tomorrow night's performance as planned in the afternoon. This piece will continue tomorrow morning, so everyone has time to get more familiar with it.
"Also..." Lian Lixin seemed a little embarrassed to say: "This song should not be publicized or discussed outside for the time being... because Yang Jingxing's cooperation with us may cause some unnecessary misunderstandings. Please remember... That's it."
What's so special? Who cares about helping you promote it?
However, after working together for two hours, everyone became familiar with each other. It was better to warm up before saying goodbye. Zhou Hongbo shook hands with Yang Jingxing again: "You play very well, very well!"
The first violinist didn't know whether it was a compliment or a reminder: "It's very good. You have a lot of experience performing concertos, right? Just play according to your rhythm, and we can cooperate."
Another cello alumnus asked: "Professor Li Yingzhen has not retired yet or is he re-employed? The piano department has produced Chen Yu in the past few years, it seems."
A colleague disagreed: "Chen Yu became famous as a piano boy."
Yang Jingxing thanked the musician teachers for their encouragement and time.
Lian Lixin took Yang Jingxing to the finance department and paid 100,000 yuan, because he only had to rehearse for six hours in this rehearsal hall once as planned. Yang Jingxing had no intention of renting the concert hall, although the orchestra's finance person had informed recommendations
He said that if you choose a non-weekend time, you can rent the small hall of Puhai Grand Theater for a day, and negotiate with the Philharmonic Orchestra, it only costs 10,000 to 20,000 yuan.
Yang Jingxing said: "I think it feels better here."
The other party asked again: "Do you have any other requirements? Costumes and lighting? Are you planning any surprises?" He seemed to be looking forward to it.
Yang Jingxing didn't ask for it.
After chatting with Lian Lixin for a while, Yang Jingxing rushed to Hongxing. Before he arrived, Lu Kaiping called and asked what Yang Jingxing was busy with. Did you read the purely polite reply from the gramophone: "...
...What you do now must take your identity into consideration. Both departments, including the principal, care so much about you. It’s best to communicate with the school and teachers first if you have any plans, don’t you think?”
Yang Jingxing was surprised: "Did you hear something?"
Lu Kaiping seemed to hesitate for a moment: "I did not report this matter to the superiors. Let me ask you first...are you ready to cooperate with Lian Lixin? Of course, in a way, I understand that you are doing this. You and Professor Li
How was it discussed?"
Keeping it a secret, Yang Jingxing asked: "Who did you listen to? There must be a misunderstanding."
Lu Kaiping still had the majesty of a department director: "Don't worry about who said it, is there something going on?"
Yang Jingxing explained: "It's like this. Qi Qingnuo wrote a concerto and I liked it very much, so I asked the conductor and the Philharmonic Orchestra to rehearse it at my own expense to see the effect. I thought it was a private matter, so I didn't report it to the school."
Lu Kaiping let out a long sigh: "...That's it. Then you can discuss it with the school first! Oh, now that I'm out, this makes sense. It makes sense. You didn't tell Professor Li either?"
Yang Jingxing said: "No, I will definitely get scolded if I tell you."
Lu Kaiping laughed: "What's the point? It's just business. Professor Chen from the brass section just called me and asked me, is Yang Jingxing rehearsing a concerto with the Philharmonic Orchestra? What's the plan? Such a big thing
, you said I don’t even know if others ask..."
Yang Jingxing said: "I want to keep a low profile because I always feel a little inappropriate."
Lu Kaiping thought for a while: "It's a bit...you paid for it at your own expense!? How much did you spend?"
Yang Jingxing said: "tens of thousands of yuan."
Lu Kaiping felt that Lian Lixin was pretty good and had a huge discount, so he continued to use his brain power: "This matter really shouldn't be high-profile. We must pay attention to the impact."
Yang Jingxing said: "I don't have any good ideas. I just treat it as a private matter and try not to cause any trouble to the school and the department."
Lu Kaiping also praised Yang Jingxing for doing a good job. Since Yang Jingxing said that the quality of the work was good, it did not embarrass the school. Moreover, from what Professor Chen said just now, Yang Jingxing seemed to have given Aile a disincentive.
Then continue to deal with it in a low-key manner. Lu Kaiping was thinking about how to explain to Professor Chen: "Practice outside the school. It doesn't make sense to put it on your head... I think this means that the department gives you a lot of freedom. This
It's also true. I believe that no matter what you do, you will consider it from the school's perspective first..."
Compared with the slightly backward and outdated one at the Philharmonic Orchestra, the western festival atmosphere in the bustling area of the city is much stronger and more distinct. Even Hongxing Company could not avoid it and added some decorations.
During the lunch break, the front desk joked with Yang Jingxing: "Manager Yang, you don't have a date on Christmas Eve?"
The saliva song invited by Dai Qing was received this morning. In addition to the simplified score, the author also invited a woman to record a cappella demo. It seems that the standard has improved a lot after becoming famous.
But this song is far inferior to "Self-Contradiction". The pattern is similar but too rough, and many of Yang Jingxing's requests have turned a deaf ear. Yang Jingxing called to negotiate, and the other party was quite cooperative, but it seemed that in exchange he asked if Tang Xiaoxiao was serious.
I copied the song and asked for the truth from the conspiracy theory. Yang Jingxing gave the official version.
Basically, he got off work early after just one glance. Yang Jingxing even went up and down and asked Pang Xi to go with him, even though Pang Xi said he didn't have any plans.
After Yang Jingxing went home and changed his clothes, he went to wash the car and refuel. He had to queue for a while. It seemed that Qi Qingnuo's decision not to drive to work this morning was a wise one.
At around four o'clock, Yang Jingxing received a call from Ren Chuyu. Ren Chuyu was showing off that she was blowing the sea breeze, burning a bonfire and eating barbecue. Because she went home last year, this was her first summer Christmas, which was quite interesting.
Because there was a band at the scene to entertain, Ren Chuyu thought of Yang Jingxing, although she didn't know whether it was pop or punk: "Do you still remember the one you gave me, doresolsol..."
Yang Jingxing was annoyed and stopped him: "Don't mention it. I didn't know how high the sky was at that time, but now I blush when I think about it."
Ren Chuyu comforted: "It sounds good, but it's a bit short... Do you still remember what I gave you?"
Yang Jingxing said: "Keep it...it's just too small."
Ren Chuyu chuckled: "...let me ask you something, you have to tell the truth. Are you in contact with Wang Fanxuan?"
Yang Jingxing said: "I told you last time."
Ren Chuyu was a little suspicious because Wang Fanxuan posted a photo in the alumni directory, which contained six tickets for tomorrow night's concert: "... so enthusiastic!"
To be continued...
