After Yang Jingxing answered some phone calls and helped him take pictures to commemorate the occasion, Kong Chenhe strongly asked for a gift in return, feeling that Yang Jingxing had to take a photo with the big poster as the background, just to make Professor Li happy: "...... My name is Xin Ting. ”

Yu Xinting is really positive, she was already wearing a performance costume when she came with a little jump, a black long skirt that didn't pay attention to covering the instep, short heels were also black, and the upper body of the skirt had some lace and tulle or something, such as sleeves.

Veronica followed Yu Xinting, but Yang Jingxing still couldn't control his broken mouth: "What's the matter with your unit?

Yu Xinting checked herself embarrassedly: "I chose it myself, it's all the same...... Isn't it ugly?"

Kong Chenhe shook his head again and again: "When you didn't get close, he said it looked good......"

Veronica helped and asked the three compatriots to take a group photo, and then Kong Chenhe got out of the way, feeling that the two real artists should take a photo together, and was in a hurry to be a photography assistant: "Laugh, eggplant......"

In order to cater to the hobbies of the guests, Veronica said with a clear conscience that the photo of the two people standing side by side with a standard smile is very good, very good, and then it is good to do it to the end, and asked herself if she can also have one with Yang Jingxing.

Yu Xinting still attaches great importance to the relationship between colleagues, helped Yang Jingxing happily agree to Veronica, and after taking the camera, she encouraged her colleagues who were busy sorting out their instruments to look good.

However, Veronica is here for business, and she wonders if Yang Jingxing is interested in meeting some people, such as peers, famous music critics, or even music-loving politicians, so she should go to the VIP lounge now.

Yang Jingxing is a little interested, but he won't go until seven o'clock, and now he has to go to Yu Xinting's to take a rest.

The first time she performed on stage, Yu Xinting didn't seem to be excited and nervous, she was still concerned about what her friends ate at night, and asked, "What about Tao Meng?"

Yang Jingxing said: "She will come when the time comes...... Tell me to bring you a message, come on. ”

Yu Xinting smiled gratefully: "She must have changed so much, I may not recognize it." ”

Yang Jingxing said: "It's still the same...... Did you call home?"

Yu Xinting nodded: "I called back when I was eating just now...... Tian Tian called in the morning, and Yu Feifei and Xiaojie also talked. ”

Yang Jingxing nodded: "I listened to Xiaohe." ”

Yu Xinting still has to say it herself: "Senior sister called in the afternoon, An Xin ...... when she was in elementary class last night" This girl was a little honored on her face, and even Wang Yuchen and Wei Junyu's classmates also sent emails or online messages or something, not to mention Fu Feirong.

went to the office and sat down, and drove in a hurry to turn on the computer to tinker with photos, Yang Jingxing said to Yu Xinting officially, saying that today is just a small beginning, and he will be more serious in the future, and the opportunity is reserved for those who are prepared......

Kong Chenhe reminded Yu Xinting to remember to give her a photo of Veronica to herself.

Yu Xinting's phone rang again, and she was surprised or surprised by Yang Jingxing after taking a look: "It seems to be Qi Qingnuo." ”

Yang Jingxing took a look, it was Qi Qingnuo's number, was it this roaming problem or Yu Xinting didn't save it, and her name was not displayed. Yang Jingxing's sinister and cunning expression: "I'll pick it up." ”

Yu Xinting seemed a little reluctant, but after a little hesitation, she still handed over the phone.

Yang Jingxing pressed to answer, and his voice narrowed: "Hello, who are you looking for." ”

Qi Qingnuo was not surprised at all: "It's not you, what about Yu Xinting? ”

Yang Jingxing returned the phone to Yu Xinting with a disgraced face: "It's not fun." ”

Yu Xintinghe, answered: "Hey...... No, for a while...... He and Kong Chenhe had just arrived, so it was a coincidence...... Hey, he didn't pretend to be like ......" Qi Qingnuo might be telling some joke, Yu Xinting listened to it one after another: "...... It's okay, generally...... Well, just feel the atmosphere...... Don't dare to think too far...... Thank you...... I called Tiantian...... Thank you...... You're welcome, I haven't talked about it for a long time, huh...... No...... I know her personality, needless to say...... Well...... All right...... You still say no?" asked Yang Jingxing, who was smiling.

Of course, Yang Jingxing didn't miss the opportunity, and took the phone again: "Why do you get up so early? It's a big Sunday." ”

Qi Qingnuo seemed to yawn: "Continue to sleep, hang up." ”

Yang Jingxing protested: "It's so unfair, that's what I do?"

Qi Qingnuo was impatient: "Okay, you guys will have a celebration later, help me have a drink with Yu Xinting, and Qing'er." ”

Yang Jingxing was not too entangled: "Okay, you can sleep." ”

Yu Xinting kept a smile: "You speak English, she may not hear it right away." ”

Yang Jingxing puffed up: "I underestimate her too much, she is better than a monkey." ”

Yu Xinting really hehe: "...... Panpan said that there will be a lot of people at the next glorious party!"

Yang Jingxing said: "It is estimated that there is one in forty or fifty ...... today."

Yu Xinting is quite ashamed, Fu Feirong's first public large-scale performance, she was not able to attend, and 306's wonderful performance at the music festival was also missed, and it is rare for friends to remember herself.

It was nearly seven o'clock, and it was time for Yu Xinting to go backstage to gather and report, while Yang Jingxing and Kong Chenhe followed Veronica to the so-called VIP lounge.

Different from the domestic ones, the lounge of New Love is like a quiet and exquisite café, not sitting around the bustle, but chatting privately in twos and threes.

Jeromir was also there, taking over from Veronica and Yang Jingxing, first introducing him to his peers, Japanese composers and American composers. Japanese polite, sophisticated dress. Americans are casual, but not as casual as Yang Jingxing. Although the appearance is very different, and the creative concept is very different, the politeness and politeness between peers are the same.

The head of the New York office of the prestigious German sheet music publisher took the initiative to join the musicians in a chat, met Yang Jingxing, and politely expressed his desire to work with the younger generation of Chinese composers, because he believed in the conductor and the orchestra's vision for new works.

It seems that this new concert is a bit influential, and several music critics are heavyweight media, but they only know the musicians a little, they are not keen on making friends, and in fact, the musicians are not very enthusiastic about them.

Yang Jingxing stayed in the lounge for more than ten minutes, most of the time satisfying the curiosity of others, and the Japanese composer and Miki Nakai knew each other and could talk a few more words.

When it was time for Jeromir to leave, the others invited each other to the auditorium for a wonderful evening of music.

Ten minutes before the opening, the huge concert hall with nearly 3,000 seats has an occupancy rate of nearly 50%, which looks deserted, but it is actually very good. According to Kong Chenhe, usually when New Zealand is at home, except for the New Year's concert or some super-famous musicians, the attendance rate is generally seven or eighty percent. Today is a concert of new works, except for those who pay attention to the avant-garde and cutting-edge practitioners of the arts, the expectations of ordinary music fans are obviously not so high.

Veronica and her colleagues led the guests to their seats, and the three composers were in the front row on the second floor, but not next to each other, because there were also members of the orchestra and relatives and friends of the composers.

Yang Jingxing and Kong Chenhe's seats are a little to the left, accompanied by the strings.

Before the strings came, Yang Jingxing waited for Gan Kaicheng's family of three first, and they were all dressed up to attend, Yang Jingxing hurriedly got up to greet him, apologized to Gan Kaicheng's daughter first, and was disturbed by himself for a good weekend.

Gan Kaicheng's daughter was also polite, indicating that she really didn't like classical music, but there was no way, her parents had to give face, and she gritted her teeth and insisted on holding on for the new car promised by her father.

Gan Kaicheng's wife has some opinions, no matter how Chinese it is, this is not easy to come, Yang Jingxing does not go to sit at home, how bad it is to say.

Yang Jingxing believed it and said that as soon as they returned to Puhai, they would go to their home for dinner as a way to make up for it.

Gan Kaicheng didn't want to go back......

After the strings came, the compatriots contacted each other again, and Gan Kaicheng was honored, and the strings were still his fans.

When there were still two or three minutes before the opening, Tao Meng and her grandmother appeared in the private room on the second floor on the left, and both grandparents and grandchildren were dressed formally and beautifully. There are four seats in a private room with a ticket, but it seems that Tao Meng has no one else.

Yang Jingxing, who was talking to the strings, stood up and waved brightly to the left front. It was only five or six meters away, Tao Meng quickly saw it, smiled and nodded in response, grandma also smiled brightly, and waved her hand at Yang Jingxing.

After saying hello, Tao Meng sat down to watch the program list like many people. In addition to the introduction of the composer, there are some explanations of the music such as the structure of the music, as well as a preface and a follow-up thanks.

The introduction of Yang Jingxing on the program list is confirmed by himself, which is completely different from the other two composers, there is no list of past achievements, no introduction to the style and creative concept, that is, he studied in the Piano Department of the Composition Department of Puhai Conservatory of Music in China, under the tutelage of He Hongchui and Li Yingzhen.

The introduction of the work is objective, what is the prelude of the first movement, what kind of main and minor parts, Allegro or Adagio...... Subjective evaluations are rarely very conservative, and are basically excerpts from the composer's standard instructions on the score.

When Tao Meng read the program list carefully, Le Xian asked Yang Jingxing about what kind of friends, but he should have found that Yang Jingxing was not very willing to talk more, so he changed the topic.

Seeing that it is at the point, the attendance rate of six or seven percent, the number of people is still quite considerable. Kong Chenhe felt good, because more than a thousand people basically kept quiet, at least not noisy.

There was no host in this concert, and the sudden orchestra appeared, first all female musicians, and more than a dozen people came out in a row, and Yu Xinting was among them.

Although they are all black, Yu Xinting is still quite eye-catching in the queue, but like her colleagues, she also has a bright smile and an amiable greeting. Yu Xinting should have seen Tao Meng, but she didn't stop her eyes too much and didn't wave in that direction, because this appearance was very simple, after a little stop, the other musicians went to take their places, and Yu Xinting had to leave.

Tao Meng didn't pay special tribute to Yu Xinting, but her eyes followed for a while, and she didn't know if the two of them were on the signal.

Then the male musicians came to the stage in batches, and the famous principal showed his special status a little, and the applause was slightly warmer.

The orchestra was all in place, and after a little reorganization on stage, they were looking forward to the conductor's appearance, just like the audience.

The concert hall was quiet and harmonious for about a minute, during which Yang Jingxing and Tao Meng's eyes crossed twice, but it seemed that neither of them realized it, and they were all inadvertent.

Jeromir finally appeared, and the applause rose up, and Jeromir showed the pride of a great artist and responded more stingily.

A brief walk-through that begins with a handshake between the conductor and the principal, followed by an oboe leading the orchestra to calibrate the score, and the conductor pretending to fiddle with the score, presumably has the effect of getting the audience into the groove.

The orchestra was ready, the conductor checked the score, but before he began, he said a few words, and Jeromir kept up with the current events and made a slight joke about the election, identifying himself as a Democrat, but also complimenting the Republican Party, and saluting the New York State Senator on the right for his strong support of the arts.

At a quarter past eight, the music finally began.

The first overture is quite good, it is a two-pleaser, with an obvious intention to please the audience, and it also carries out some avant-garde explorations that have been more popular among academics in recent decades, and combines some things from his own national culture, so that the work meets the standards that a famous composer should pursue.

The audience was still very supportive, and after the end of the ten-minute music, the applause was quite enthusiastic.

At the invitation of Jeromir, the composer stood up and greeted him with more enthusiasm.

Then the second piece begins, and for about 20 minutes without a break, the orchestra and conductor are still working diligently, and most of the audience seems to be listening attentively, without obvious impatience, but the overall feeling is different. Perhaps the most obvious manifestation is that a certain audience member downstairs almost raised the program list in front of him and refused to stand it, causing a few people to follow suit.

As a peer, Yang Jingxing must of course admire and thank others for their spirit of exploration, most of the time focusing on art, and occasionally looking at Tao Meng.

Tao Meng and her grandmother were still able to sit still, but they obviously didn't have an appreciative look. Tao Meng seemed to be thinking about the problem seriously, and the old man was a little absent-minded, looking at Tao Meng from time to time.

After the music ended, the applause was in stark contrast to the previous overture, and even some people didn't do it at all, still feeling relieved.

Jeromir still wanted to pay tribute to the composer.

The composer himself obviously doesn't care about the audience at all, he is still full of pride, and it is estimated that he is now similar to Gan Kaicheng's feeling of getting a few maverick new things in the first few years, but being ruthlessly denied by the market, and then watching other people's saliva songs become popular.

After the intermission, Yang Jingxing did not socialize, quickly came out and crossed the corridor, found the entrance of Tao Meng's box, and went in with a smile: "Grandma." ”

The old man smiled: "Xiao Yang, what I just did was so unpleasant, not good!"

Yang Jingxing hehe: "Thank you for your hard work." ”

The old man said to Tao Meng: "Go ahead, be careful, Xiao Yang will accompany me." ”

Tao Meng nodded and said to Yang Jingxing, "I'll go to the bathroom." ”

Yang Jingxing nodded: "Don't worry." ”

The old man asked Yang Jingxing to sit: "...... Where did you go to play with Meng Meng in the morning?"

Yang Jingxing said: "She took me to see the museum, and I invited her to lunch. ”

The old man smiled and praised: "That's good, even if you don't usually come here, classmates should contact each other more." ”

Yang Jingxing hey: "I usually don't have a chance or an excuse, so thank you for accompanying Tao Meng, otherwise I wouldn't even have this chance, and even the friendship between classmates would have been broken." ”

Grandma Tao Meng used the gentleness and sternness characteristic of old people: "Said the wrong thing...... Grandma is glad to see you meet like this, how nice. ”

Yang Jingxing: "It's a pity that I can't write a symphony in a few years, and I don't necessarily have this opportunity to write it......"
