Chapter 85: The Choir
After Zheng Qian finished rehearsing, he was very satisfied with the arrangement and state, he made up his mind to hand in this song, as for whether he could get the satisfaction of the big guys, Zheng Qian still had a certain degree of certainty in his heart.
At this time, Zhang Aimin walked over and sighed: "Young man, your brain is very good, this song is really good, ......I like it! Are you interested in trying the suona version? That's right, I'll use the suona to accompany you, let's join forces, what do you think?"
Zheng Qian was shocked in his heart, and hurriedly waved his hand: "Teacher Zhang, this song is already a finished product in terms of arrangement, and I don't plan to change it at this stage, if there is a need, I will come to you again!"
Zhang Aimin's face was full of regret, and he patted Zheng Qian's shoulder: "It's your loss that you missed me." ”
At this time, Wei Yehong and Yang Hongyi came over and took Zheng Qian to the band rehearsal hall, where they could rehearse again.
Yang Hongyi said with a smile as he walked: "Zhang Aimin's suona is indeed a must, he didn't brag about this, he has been studying blowing skills for so many years, he is second in the suona field, no one dares to call it first, and he has never been afraid of any stage." However, this suona is too domineering and easy to dominate, so if you want to cooperate with him, you can only form a band, and it is mainly based on him! If you are singing, you don't want to cooperate with him. ”
Zheng Qian also felt so, so he refused.
The timbre of suona is too prominent, and it is an existence that all musicians will not consider when composing, even if it is added to the music, it is only used for solo.
This may also be the reason why Zhang Aimin is a sixth-level civilian cadre at such an age.
Wei Yehong said with a smile: "Zheng Qian's song is really good, Secretary Yang, I think you can hand in this song today, let the General Political Department review it, pass it if you can, and say it in advance if you can't, so that Zheng Qian has time to write two more songs." ”
Yang Hongyi nodded: "Okay, I'll arrange it as soon as I get back." ”
Zheng Qian hurriedly thanked him, and at this time, the three of them came to the band rehearsal hall, where a choir was rehearsing, and each member was dressed very formally, all wearing regular clothes, looking majestic and solemn.
The chorus is "Holy Alliance", a piece of music with a strong Soviet style.
The team of about thirty people emitted a loud singing, deafening, and had the power to inspire.
"This is the choir under the Beijing Comrades-in-Arms Art Troupe, and they exist in every large-scale condolence performance, and they are the trump card team of the Comrades-in-Arms Art Troupe. Yang Hongyi said with a smile: "This condolence performance is all over the seven military regions, and the task is heavy, and the comrades-in-arms art troupe also sent elites to participate in it and do their part." ”
The Comrades-in-Arms Art Troupe is a relatively highly exposed existence in the major art troupes, and it is generally visited with the top leader, and has been widely praised.
Zheng Qian listened enthusiastically, "Holy Alliance" is a typical Soviet-style music, with a strong style of workers' and peasants' class struggle, very majestic and solemn, even during the rehearsal, this group of civilian cadres are wearing regular clothes, all of them are serious, not smiling, which is like Zheng Qian and others, dressed in casual clothes and smiling to rehearse.
After these people finished rehearsing, Zheng Qian watched several bands perform one after another.
is different from the pop music that is often heard by the outside world, the repertoire performed by everyone here is basically full of military colors, and because each is a team, the works performed are magnificent, and Zheng Qian's blood is boiling.
At this moment, the choir that had just finished rehearsing "Holy Alliance" and walked off the stage suddenly broke out into a dispute, which was very eye-catching in the entire rehearsal hall.
Everyone looked at it curiously.
Director Yang is a jack of all trades, so he hurriedly stepped forward to find out, and when he came back, he explained: "Zhou He of the Comrade-in-Arms Art Troupe did not complete the task of creation, and was reprimanded by the deputy head of the regiment, and Zhou He picked his son and left. ”
"Zhou He, oh, I've heard about it. ”
Wei Yehong bowed slightly, and explained to Zheng Qian: "Zhou He is a pianist in the Comrades-in-Arms Art Troupe, and he is also the leading songwriter in the troupe, just promoted to the fifth-level civilian, after a while, the Comrades-in-Arms Art Troupe will go out with the high-level to visit, and the previous performances have been "Holy Alliance", but after all, this is a song written by the Russians, although it is familiar, but the above still hopes that the creators of the Art Troupe can create a march that belongs to our Chinese......"
Director Yang smiled: "That's right, that's it, Zhou He has been very busy recently, the whole person is exhausted, I really can't write, just now the deputy head of their regiment reprimanded Zhou He for slacking off in front of everyone, and did not actively create, Zhou He was arrogant, he couldn't stand this anger, he didn't make any explanation, he turned around and left directly." ”
Zheng Qian is speechless, are the bigwigs so willful?
Wei Yehong said: "In fact, Zhou He is under a lot of pressure, he is already in his forties, and almost every promotion is boiled up by age, some time ago, in order to be promoted to the fifth-level civil service, he fought hard with a group of world-class pianists, and finally won the third place in the Hamamatsu International Piano Competition, won the award, coupled with the qualifications that he had worked hard in the past, he was promoted after submitting the application, and it was not easy to ......"
Zheng Qian was thoughtful.
Director Yang said: "How can this creation come as soon as it comes, it is still this kind of majestic march, and it has to be performed abroad, the general song is definitely not good, I understand Zhou He, it is Deputy Head Liu who is too hasty......
"Or, I'll come?" Zheng Qian said tentatively, others can't just come, but I can!
Wei Yehong and Yang Hongyi were both stunned.
"What are you coming?" Yang Hongyi wondered.
Wei Yehong instantly understood, and said with interest: "What's the matter?
"Try it!" Zheng Qian rubbed his hands, a little excited in his heart, and even felt his blood boiling, he pointed to the piano in the corner of the stage: "When it's my turn to rehearse, I'll go up and play a song, you two listen to it first, if it's appropriate, you should do a favor to the comrades-in-arms art troupe." ”
Wei Yehong saw that Zheng Qian didn't seem to be joking, and immediately said seriously: "Zheng Qian, your rehearsal is the most important, you first rehearse "The Man Who Became a Soldier" again, if you really want to help, after the rehearsal is over, I will take you to Liu Zhenhua." ”
Liu Zhenhua is the deputy head of the comrades-in-arms art troupe who just quarreled with the composer Zhou He.
But Director Yang's eyes lit up: "I think it's okay! Young people should have this momentum! Besides, "The Man Who Became a Soldier" has just been rehearsed, there are no mistakes, and the performance is very good. But Zheng Qian, if you can play a song on the spot here, and you can convince the people on Deputy Head Liu's side, you will be giving us a boost in the face of the air administration!
