Chapter 178: Xiao Mo, Are You Interested in the Chocolate Keyboard?
"Teacher, do you come to the festival and perform live music?"
"This time, the people who entered the main venue of the festival were all top teachers in the industry, and of course I didn't have this qualification. ”
"You have such a great accomplishment in music, especially classical music, you must have this qualification. In China, I believe everyone thinks so. It's just that here in Europe, people don't know enough about you, and I believe that when the music you create spreads, there will be a chance. ”
"Thank you, thank you......"
"By the way, and the song "Themass", I believe that these musicians in Europe will definitely admire you after listening to it. When it's time for this festival, we'll all be recommending that song to the foreigners around you!
"Thank you, thank you very much! Actually, this time, the teachers of the Cleveland Orchestra will play the song "Themass" at the main venue of the festival, and everyone can go and experience it live!"
"Really, can you tell us exactly when?"
Lin Bao didn't know much about this, so he looked back at Yang Yi and the others.
"It was at 3 p.m. on May 8th. ”
Yang Yi said.
"Ah, May 8th, I only ordered the ...... on the seventh."
"On the afternoon of the 8th, I just booked the morning session, hurry up and ask if I can change it!"
"Hurry up and buy tickets! I've listened to the Vienna Music Stadium for so many years, and this is music written by our own musicians, so you can't miss it!"
"Teacher Lin Bao, come on!"
......
Behind, Yang Yi, who was originally much taller than Lin Bao in terms of seniority and status in China, Xiao Yuanshan and his party stood next to them, and no one stepped forward to care. However, looking at Lin Bao, who was sought after by everyone in front of them, they all had a smile of relief on their faces.
Compared with the Chinese people's pursuit of stars, Lin Bao has been able to get to this point in China, and has a popularity no less than that of domestic first- and second-tier stars, which is what they, the older generation of music scholars, are very willing to see.
Especially the music scholars who know Lin Bao very well and have more contact, especially Xiao Yuanshan, really regard Lin Bao as an heir.
even, he didn't hesitate to drag his old body for him and run like this.
Music, art, can last for a long time, relying on the permanence
The popularization of music education in China also requires the efforts of successive generations.
And in Lin Bao, they saw the hope of continuation. Even, the other party's current achievements are far beyond the expectations of their older generation.
In front of him, the scene at the airport is, in fact, a microcosm of Lin Bao's current influence among the domestic public.
In fact, just last night, they also received news from China.
Whether it is official research or the data and conclusions taken out by some professional data analysis institutions, Lin Bao's music lessons have begun to have some initial visible impact on the public's music appreciation and acceptance.
During the May Day period, the popularity of Chinese people going to several major cities with a strong classical music atmosphere in Europe has more than doubled!
It was because of this news that Xiao Yuanshan almost didn't sleep well all night last night!
After staying at the airport for more than half a time, Lin Bao got rid of this group of enthusiastic Chinese people and the crooked nuts who looked more active and enthusiastic because of his signature, and Yang Yi and others left the airport and took the car to the hotel.
The Chinese who met Lin Bao at the airport and got his signature spread the news to the domestic Internet.
"What, Lord Lin Bao ran to the Vienna Music Festival? No wonder he suddenly took two weeks off!"
"Lin Bao's signature, it's simply, a master of calligraphy! I'm hungry when I see it......"
"I don't know if Lin Bao will have a live performance at the music festival? To be honest, every time I go, I see a foreigner performing, which is not interesting!"
"You're wrong, in fact, in recent years, quite a few Chinese people have begun to perform at the main venue of the festival. ”
"Yes, this year, Teacher Xiao Lang and Teacher Ji Linlin will perform live!"
"I look forward to Mr. Lin Bao being able to perform a live performance!"
"Mr. Lin Bao just now, "Themass" will be performed live!"
"Really?"
Soon, a photo taken by a Chinese tourist in Vienna began to be posted on the Internet.
In the Musikverein performances of the main unit of the Vienna Music Festival, the repertoire will be sent in advance to the audience who have reserved important seats in the infield
And in the repertoire for the afternoon session of May 8th, it is clearly written that there is a performance of Lin Bao's "Themass" by the Cleveland Orchestra.
And soon, the official push in China also confirmed the news.
All of a sudden, the comments on the domestic network exploded.
......
Vienna.
Lin Bao sat in the taxi, enjoying the street scene outside with interest.
In the city, you can see buildings full of Western plastic arts, and the urban style is completely different from that of a metropolis like the magic capital in China. Along the way, he basically did not see any high-rise buildings, churches, parks, theaters, even residential areas, all of which were Baroque and Gothic buildings unique to the West.
The hotel where they stayed in Vienna was not far from the heart of the festival, the Musikverein. It was also under Weiser's communication that this time the organizer, the Friends of Music Association, arranged it for them.
"You have a rest in your room first, you have communicated with Mr. Weiser, and at seven o'clock in the evening, we will go out for a meal together. ”
The room was arranged, Yang Yi said.
Lin Bao nodded, he also wanted to meet this conductor teacher who was willing to cooperate with him and play his own works.
"If you're hungry now, can you go get some food first?"
Yang Yi looked at him.
"Good. ”
Lin Bao touched his stomach, he was indeed a little hungry.
After eating, rested in the comfortable bed of the hotel for an afternoon, and at six o'clock in the evening, the group came to the agreed hotel.
Weiser was already waiting there with a few important members of the orchestra.
"Mr. Weisser!"
"Teacher Yang Yi, teachers, this should be Teacher Lin Bao, right?"
Wei Se's gaze swept over the group, everyone else was familiar with it, and finally landed on Lin Bao in the middle, and some surprise couldn't help but flash in his eyes.
It's really, so young!
"Hello Mr. Weisser!"
As a junior, Lin Bao took the lead and stepped forward to say hello and shake hands.
For this middle-aged man wearing gold-rimmed glasses, although his face is kind, but his eyes are flashing with the sharp and calm aura that a conductor should have, he has also learned more about it before.
As one of the top five orchestra conductors in the United States, he can be amazing both under his tutelage and with many years of conducting experience. In the West, especially in Europe, there is a very high position of authority.
"Let's go into the private room and talk. ”
After a brief introduction, Weiser stretched out his hand sideways and made a gesture of please.
After taking their seats, after some simple courtesy greetings and parades, everyone chatted with each other easily.
Weisser, in particular, was full of interest in both Lin Bao himself and his "Themass". Therefore, he kept talking to Lin Bao.
Lin Bao is also very interested in communicating with this great conductor.
To this end, he even spent a large amount of points in advance to redeem a very advanced English ability from the system.
In one night, the two of them talked about the creation of the song "Themass" itself, about the masters of classical music, and about the current state of classical music.
No matter what direction or topic, Weiser found that the young man sitting across from him, who seemed to be about the same age as his son, was able to talk eloquently. Moreover, in every word, the attainments and insights in classical music revealed made him feel some pressure.
Even, Weiser was surprised to find that even in the field of command, which he was very good at, Lin Bao also had a deep understanding.
So, in this conversation, later, there was a faint taste of Wei Se asking Lin Bao for questions.
"Mr. Lin Bao, in fact, for your "Themass", in addition to some mastery techniques in composition, I am also very interested in the arrangement. ”
"I've also been influenced by my son recently, and I've started experimenting with music, trying to play with a mix of old and new music. Of course, my experiment is not at all as perfect as the combination of classical music and modern instruments in your song, Mr. Lin Bao, just a trick, using orchestral instruments to play modern blues rock, but I didn't expect that in the young Rao group, it was welcomed by some people. But I think it's nondescript or even undesirable for professional classical musicians. I don't know, Mr. Lin Bao, what do you think?"
Regarding his question, Lin Bao thought for a while and said, "In my own opinion, there is a question of inheritance and dissemination. If classical music is regarded as culture, it needs to be continuously passed on and form certain conditions for dissemination among contemporary people, so as to achieve the purpose of continuous prosperity and growth.
In terms of inheritance, classical music, a rhythmic form of culture and art, will not become obsolete at present, so it is very necessary to adhere to classical music.
But at the same time, if you want to expand its influence, let more people accept this form, and achieve the purpose of communication, you need to use other methods, or intermediate means. For example, the combination of classical music and cinema is a combination of popular commercial arts, or, like Mr. Weisser, you tried before, more to promote this instrument, or this art form, to young people. ”
"So, Mr. Lin Bao, your point of view is to look at the two separately. ”
Weiser touched his chin and said.
"Yes. ”
Lin Bao nodded, "Actually, the inheritance and dissemination of classical music in the West is much better than the same tradition in the East, which has to be admitted. During this time, I tried to use a talk show in our country, trying to explain some of the background and appreciation of classical music to the general audience, including the song "Themass", which was also created to let everyone understand the music of chant. In fact, at present, the effect of this kind of communication is also very good. ”
Weiser nodded.
chatting with Lin Bao in this paragraph, he also suddenly woke up a lot.
In the past, he tried to combine old and new music, more for the purpose of his own development and that of the orchestra. But I didn't expect that the young man in front of me, who is far less famous and less prestige than himself, has begun to look at this problem from the perspective of music popularization and music dissemination.
It's no wonder that even a musical instrument master like Mr. Yang Yi has high respect for him.
No wonder he was able to write a masterpiece like Themass!
And myself, perhaps from the starting point, has errors in understanding and purpose.
We chatted until more than ten o'clock in the evening, and Wei Se said goodbye to Lin Bao and his party with some reluctance: "Teacher Lin Bao, thank you very much for your teaching tonight, to be honest, I have benefited a lot." If possible, can we make another appointment?"
Although it was only the first time they met and they had chatted for more than two hours, Weiser was a confidant for this young man who was dozens of years older than him. In particular, I have indeed benefited a lot from him, learned a lot of oriental wisdom, as well as some master-level musical understanding and judgment.
Regarding Weisser's invitation, Lin Bao naturally readily agreed.
Xiao Yuanshan and others were also happy to see this scene.
Being able to have a good relationship with Weiser, a great conductor, is very beneficial to Lin Bao's own influence and to the plan to go abroad for domestic music.
In front of the hotel separately.
Wei Se took two steps, looked back at the back of Lin Bao who was gradually moving away, and couldn't help but sigh a little in his heart: "The East is really a magical country, it seems that my previous view of the East is a little biased." ”
In fact, before this meal, he still had a slight disbelief in the identity of the creator of the song "Themass". But after tonight's conversation, he no longer had the slightest suspicion.
With this young oriental man's musical attainments, he is indeed capable of composing such a "Themass", including playing the kind of "Romance of Love" guitar music that no one else in the world can match, close to the original!
Suddenly, he remembered his son's words when he first listened to the music "Themass" before. Immediately, with some teasing expressions on his face, he dialed a phone call: "Hey, Mo, I saw a keyboard-shaped chocolate on the street of Vienna just now, are you interested, bring you one?"
......
Back in the hotel room, Lin Bao also turned on his mobile phone, and a lot of messages were accumulated on it.
The first is a message sent by Xiao Yutong to himself, asking about his situation here, and also sending him the contact information of his parents who are also here and are very familiar with this place.
Lin Bao gave her a brief introduction to the afternoon, and then sent messages to Cao Zige and them one by one.
opened the last one, Zheng Rong's message to herself, and she was stunned: "World of Warcraft official?"
