The double bass is the only symphonic string instrument that occupies a standard position in jazz.

For this point, Qin Jian is naturally very clear.

The double bass itself is just an instrument of the violin family that emerged as a deep sound to strengthen the orchestra.

After the seventeenth century, with the development of major music and the practice of harmonic function, the double bass gradually emerged from a silent supporting role.

It became a kind of fashion.

While providing the base of the chords, the rhythm has begun to be clearly balanced, of course, but at the time it was only in response to the new style of music with cheerful melodies and clear rhythms of the new era.

Later, after the birth of jazz, the double bass became an indispensable bass part in the band, especially in traditional jazz, its original timbre and texture effect are irreplaceable by electric bass.

Just like Qin Jian's low and soft overtones lingering in his ears at this moment.

As soon as the strings came out, the sensitive elk seemed to have received some kind of shock, and the melody under the ten fingers was like an aimless drunk suddenly finding his way home.

The most peculiar thing about the bass instrument is that it is not a percussion instrument, but it actually uses its unique vibration frequency to control the rhythm of the whole music.

Whether it's a four-pipe orchestra or a jazz band with only five or six members.

After the female bass was added to the second measure of Qin Jian's swinging march, the shape of the music became clear enough.

Under the interlacing of the percussion of the piano and the grainy texture of the double bass, a metallic rustle quietly appeared from a corner of the stage.

Santa Claus no longer juggles the air.

The drum brush in hand begins the dance on a drum skin with four strips of sandblasting.

The trio came together in this moment.

Qin Jian couldn't observe Old Porter's operations from the afterglow, but the moment the distinct rhythm came out, Qin Jian could only focus all his attention on his subordinates.

It's clear that bass and drums are musically perfecting around their own melodies.

But in fact, bass and drums are the soul of swing music, if Liao Linjun and Lao Potter are compared to two chefs with excellent cooking skills.

The music fragments that I play are undoubtedly the ingredients.

And the quality of the ingredients ultimately determines the final presentation of this music.

Although I have a swing ring to regulate the music playing under my hands, it is a collaboration, and I should have to do much more than I have now.

Qin Jian realized the problem and listened to the music and tried the movements in his hands.

Maybe you can enrich the harmony of the music and give the bass more room to play.

Before the end of the sub-melody, Qin Jian did not follow the harmony that was about to stop, but chose to transpose it after a hold note.

Modulation of C major to G major.

The ring can only change the way Qin keys are played, and it does not help in the slightest in how to proceed with the direction of the harmony.

Fortunately, Qin Jian still has a little bit of his own dry goods.

At the beginning of the new key, Qin Jian started with the Gmaj7 chord and followed the Am7 chord, and let himself go all the way through the pleasant feeling of the major seventh chord to the minor seventh chord, and then took out all the parts that he could use in the jazz harmonic direction he mastered.

Liao Linjun was plucking the strings while occasionally taking a sip from his wine glass, which has always perfectly filled the missing part of Qin Jian's experience, and has always maintained the high quality of the whole piece.

As for Santa Claus, Qin Jian knew from the moment the drum beat entered, and this TM was clearly a professional drummer in the true sense.

Compared to Old Porter, the guys in the band he used to play in with drumsticks and brag all day were like schoolchildren in the drum and bugle team.

But.

Qin Jian felt that he had improvised to this extent, and he was almost hollowed out.

The melody progresses to the end again, and in the sense that the piano sound has a clear tendency to stop, the female bass gradually disappears.

Qin Jian raised his hand, and the last bit of humming and drum brushing in the double bass case was completely drowned out by enthusiastic cheers in the last rustle of the hanging cymbal.

Looking at the reactions of the foreign audiences around him, Qin Jian himself was also a little excited, not because of the value in his hand, the extra consumption of two or three days was no longer enough to move Qin Jian.

In the cooperation just now, although my level is limited, I still completed the music completely, no matter what, the feeling of being on the same stage with a master is really too refreshing.

When can you have a band like this and have such musicians?

Qin Jian looked at Liao Linjun, but the other party also looked at him, and then the other party gave him a thumbs up.

This made Qin Jian a little flattered for a moment.

"Thank you. ”

Still a faint voice came.

Qin Jian stood up with the piano, glanced around with a smile, and bowed slightly.

The antlers on his head shook again, and the whole hall burst into laughter.

An old man wearing a flat hat stepped forward a few steps and walked to the stage, shaking his body at Qin Jian, and speaking some words that Qin Jian couldn't understand, definitely not English.

Qin Jian watched the old man's eyes widen as he tried his best, as if he wanted to get some hint from the other party's expression.

The old man was in a hurry, and sang directly: "Di Da La La~ Di and Di Da La Di~"

Isn't this autumn leaves?

“Antumn leaves?”

Qin Jian once again brought out his broken English, which made the audience more lively.

“ye，ye，ye。 ”

The old man smiled.

Qin Jian also smiled.

Driven by the Swing ring, Qin Jian's autumn leaves can be regarded as not so depressed.

......

Song after song, those who can and cannot, those who can play and those who can't, Qin Jian has been looking for his own place between the drums and bass.

Learn by doing, practice by learning.

After a simple small jazz concert, Qin Jian had almost no regrets except that he didn't hear Liao Linjun play the piano.

Playing music with a master is a kind of enjoyment, for Qin Jian

Of course, there is another kind of enjoyment, but for the time being, he can't digest it.

"I need a strong elk tonight. ”

The white chick wrapped her arms around Qin Jian's neck and said in Qin Jian's ear in blunt Chinese.

In front of the gate of the coffee table piano hall, everyone sent each other in hugs and hugged each other.

"Another day!"

Qin Jian is a normal man, although he can sometimes be unconservative, but it is by no means today.

"Don't lie to me. ”

The woman said and stuffed a business card between Qin Jian's fingers, "Dear." ”

mua～

A scene not worth mentioning.

Gradually, there were only three people left in the doorway.

Qin Jian looked at the business card in his hand and put it in his pocket.

Amy, good name.

"Good night Qin Jian, eight o'clock tomorrow morning, time is running out. ”

Liao Linjun walked to the house by himself with a sigh of anger.

"You did a great job tonight!"

"You too!"

The old and the young who stayed outside the door looked at each other and smiled
