Chapter 153: If He Created This, I'll ...... Eat my keyboard!
For Xu Fan's new song, Lin Bao still didn't give too much technical guidance.
The two of them chatted there for almost two, and it was more about the development of the ballad itself.
In fact, Xu Fan's current understanding of folk songs is a little deeper than Lin Bao imagined before. His new song, compared with the previous song "Those Flowers", is a huge improvement.
Lin Bao believes that in this direction, the next domestic new folk songs will start to take the first step from Xu Fan!
......
Meanwhile.
Cleveland, Ohio, USA.
By the time Weiser returned to his home in the suburban villa area, it was past ten o'clock in the evening.
A few years ago, he took over from his predecessor and began to take charge of the Cleveland Orchestra, one of the five major symphony orchestras in the United States, and suddenly became the youngest and brightest conducting superstar in China.
But even so, he never dared to relax for a moment.
Down, there are still countless outstanding commanding juniors behind him who are eager to try and covet his position.
Upward, after the prosperity of the seventies and eighties of the last century, the Cleveland Orchestra has now shown a decline, falling to the end of the "Big Five" in the United States, and even faintly overtaking other domestic orchestras.
In the past few years at the helm of the orchestra, on the one hand, he has made the orchestra, which has become a little impetuous with the modern pop atmosphere in the United States, return to the previous balanced and delicate style. But at the same time, on the other hand, it is also actively seeking some changes, especially hoping to cater to the tastes and preferences of young people.
Although these two aspects seem to be contradictory, Weiser thinks very clearly in his own heart.
As an orchestra, it is necessary to have your own unique style. In the last century, the Cleveland Orchestra has been favored by the classical music world for its well-balanced and delicate style.
But at the same time, the orchestra also needs to further expand its influence.
From within the classical music industry, it is not so easy to surpass the "Big Four" in front of them, or even surpass those music groups that bet on the top of the classical music stage in the name of "Philharmonic".
Therefore, Weiser considered innovating in content, especially some music that caters to the tastes of young people, as a means for the orchestra to extend its influence.
Not long ago, he was inspired by his more pop-forward son to have the band play one of the hottest blues rocks in the United States in the orchestra at the Cleveland City Theater Concert Hall.
Orchestral performance of blues rock, with modern percussion as the main element, is also the first in China.
Although the news was criticized by many people in the industry, it was very positive to see the reaction of the audience, especially the reaction of some young people!
So, on the premise of keeping the band's style as before, to try some pop elements, Weiser himself, is now very much in agreement.
Jingle bells!
The doorbell rang, Wei Se walked out of the door, and saw the brother who was delivering food standing at the gate of the courtyard, and walked over quickly.
Because the orchestra was preparing for the upcoming Vienna Music Festival, I trained today, and although I had eaten in the evening, I still felt a little hungry, so I ordered a pizza sent by the expatriate.
After paying 15 dollars to his brother, who had worked hard to deliver food to the suburbs, Weiser returned to the villa.
"Mo, the expatriate pizza has arrived, do you want to eat some?"
He knocked on his son's door, then pushed them open.
The son was sitting in front of the computer, and when he heard his words, he hurriedly beckoned: "Okay, Dad, give me some." β
Weiser walked over and saw on the computer screen that his son was playing the now popular e-sports game.
On the screen, the constantly clicking mouse, as well as the switching screen, dazzled him.
Dada!
cut out the game screen, and the son clicked on a video posted in the chat group, and suddenly, a low and unfamiliar music came out.
"Huh?"
Weiser is very sensitive to music.
As soon as this music came out, just after the previous paragraph, he heard that this exciting music was a magical fusion of traditional orchestral instruments and modern electronic percussion.
And as soon as the voice came out, he was stunned.
Is there such a heavy element of religious music?
Seems to be a transposition of some chant music?
What kind of adaptation is this?
He actually changed this kind of religious chant, which even he, a top conductor, felt a headache with, to look like this?
"What kind of music is this?"
Weiser hurriedly asked, "I don't know either." β
The son, who had already switched back to the game screen, shook his head, he was also surprised by the music, and cut the video out again.
In the video, there is a clip of the game footage of "World of Warcraft" that he is playing now.
He enlarged the video, and in the background music, it seemed to be a voice from the battlefield, and with the huge war and natural wonders in the video, the father and son were suddenly calmed.
"It's amazing!"
After the video was broadcast, my son couldn't help but marvel.
As a veteran player of World of Warcraft, he has seen many videos of players editing soundtracks independently, but this video is definitely the most shocking to him.
Especially the background BGM, which is simply made for the game World of Warcraft!
This music is too immersive in the game's plot!
All of a sudden, he fell in love with the music!
In the future, when playing games, use it as a background war song!
Weisser, who was standing behind, also had a surprised expression on his face.
No, this music is a perfect fusion of classical, modern, and religious elements, and the arrangement of this music alone is absolutely masterful!
In the ears of one of the top conductors in the United States, he is impeccable!
"Is this the game's promo song?"
Weiser couldn't help but ask.
"No, absolutely not! I'll ask them......"
The son clicked on the interface of the chat group and began to type and ask questions in the group.
In fact, at this moment, the netizens in this group suddenly exploded because of this video.
This music and the edited video are simply an explosion!
All of a sudden, they made their hardcore players feel their blood boiling, as if they had suddenly broken into that desirable game world.
It's simply epic music, epic BGM!
Soon, the netizen who first posted this video replied.
"Dad, they downloaded it from YouTube...... It seems to have been uploaded by netizens themselves. β
"Uploaded by netizens themselves?"
Weiser was a little surprised.
He was listening to such a piece of music for the first time.
Press, this kind of music, before it becomes popular and used by users on these networks, should attract some attention in the music industry, at least in the pop music industry.
But why haven't I listened to the domestic music industry before, discussed or even heard this song?
In front of the computer screen, the son also turned on the YouTube tube and searched for the video that had just been uploaded, and below, there were already more than a thousand comments.
And at the bottom of the video, it reads "Transferred from a game forum in China".
"China?"
Weiser was even more surprised.
Could it be that this music actually came from that eastern country on the other side of the world?
No, in the Oriental world, how can anyone have such attainments and compose such a master-level epic music?
"I privately chatted with the person who sent the video. β
The son also knew that his father must be interested in such a piece of music, so he immediately logged on to his account and chatted privately with the author of the video in the background.
The other party did not reply to the message in time, probably because there were too many people chatting with him privately in the background, and then a message was replied to the top of the video.
"This game video is currently the most popular video on China's World of Warcraft game forum. The BGM in the background is also a very popular song in China at present, according to ......"
The son stared at the words and read the back words, "According to it, it was created by a young man in China who is only 25 years old!"
βWhatοΌβ
Weisser's eyes widened when he heard his son read this.
"Absolute!"
The son naturally didn't believe the news very much, and waved his hand in front of him, "If it was really this song written by a Chinese who was only 25 years old, I would ...... Eat my keyboard!"
Later, although Weiser was not as exaggerated as his son, he also had a little disbelief in his heart.
Have you ever heard of such a master composer in that ancient country of the East?
What's more, it's only 25 years old?!
