Chapter 95 Semester Exhibition
After eating, Sister Ran, they were going back to the bar. Yang Jingxing didn't send it back, so he had to go back to school to continue arranging and arranging instruments. Yu Xinting didn't bother.
On Tuesday morning, Yang Jingxing went to hand over the score of "Sun in the Rain" to He Hongchui. But He Hongchui actually has the score of "Wind and Rain on the Same Road", saying that he downloaded it on the school forum.
He Hongchui analyzed "Wind and Rain on the Same Road" to Yang Jingxing from beginning to end, and then compared the melody and arrangement of "Sun in the Rain", and praised Yang Jingxing's pursuit of melody, but in terms of composition techniques, He Hongchui felt that Yang Jingxing was a bit too "diverse and integrated", resulting in the commercialization of the final work, which was not distinctive, just good-sounding.
He Hongchui said that it is not that commercialization is bad, but commercialization is the biggest restriction on artworks, which will lead to the "good-sounding" of Yang Jingxing's works, which should be superficial and short-lived.
The facts are in front of you, and several of Yang Jingxing's current works are very popular in schools, and they all sound very good, but few people are interested in in-depth research on his works, because there is no need for this. Although the structure of Yang Jingxing's works is a little complicated, it is still the most basic in terms of technique, and although the melody is excellent, the purpose of pursuing it seems to be only good.
Take cooking as a metaphor, Yang Jingxing's work is like a plate of fried rice with a lot of good ingredients, it is delicious, but nothing special about it. However, a good chef does not make a hodgepodge, they will use the best skills to make the most delicious and memorable dishes even if they take a single ingredient.
He Hongchui means that Yang Jingxing should write some special works one by one, and more deeply experience the charm and efficacy of music in addition to being good.
He Hongchui also compared: "Like the students of the Academy of Fine Arts, those students who can draw portraits like photographs are not necessarily good students, because that is not the ultimate goal of art, and music is not just for the sake of sounding...... Several of our teachers have read your work, and frankly we didn't find the ideological ...... In addition to this ensemble, there is also a bit of fun. ”
Yang Jingxing said: "I don't dare to think about ideology yet. ”
He Hongchui criticized: "Don't you dare to think about who can think? Don't feel that you have your own feelings and thoughts to express at every stage of your young life...... With so much determination and hard work, you should not just be such commercial music. If you write something like this, if it's just to sell it for money, it's better to ask for it directly from home. ”
Yang Jingxing said that he would remember He Hongchui's words and work hard in the direction of art.
In the harmony class on Thursday afternoon, Professor Gong Xiaoling, who is about the same age as Li Yingzhen, suddenly cared for Yang Jingxing. Gong Xiaoling has an in-depth study of modern harmony, but unfortunately domestic music education does not pay special attention to this part, so when practicing Gong Xiaoling, she is in accordance with the requirements of the school to explain more classical harmony.
Gong Xiaoling said that she watched Yang Jingxing's "Wind and Rain on the Same Road" and admired the piano part of it. Yang Jingxing also admitted that he had read Gong Xiaoling's two monographs on detailed explanations and sound paths.
Gong Xiaoling was very surprised, she did not recommend her books to students, and those books were published in Russia first, and they were not released in China, and the libraries donated them personally, and she did not expect many people to read them.
So in the second class, Gong Xiaoling suddenly changed the course and projected Yang Jingxing's score and said: "In this class, let's analyze the work closest to us, and look at the piano chords, voiceovers and textures in Yang Jingxing's piano trumpet ensemble work. ”
A few of the dozen or so people in the class already had scores, and those who didn't have them copied them on the spot. Luo Jiaqian's USB drive was taken off from Yang Jingxing's computer and passed it on one by one.
After everyone took a look, Gong Xiaoling encouraged: "Can someone first talk about his discovery and understanding of the use of harmony in this kind of work?"
A male student first talked about the use of counterpoint harmony in Yang Jingxing's works. This is obvious, and even the blind can see that it is not an opinion.
Xu Xuesi deserves a good relationship with Yang Jingxing, and he looks good at the two melodies in the work, and said: "This is my favorite part." ”
Luo Jiaqian also analyzed Yang Jingxing's rich texture forms, saying: "I think his alternating use of column chords and decomposition chords does not seem neat, but it is very helpful for the melody progression. ”
Gong Xiaoling nodded: "It's all very good, let me tell you my opinion......"
Jiang is old and spicy, Gong Xiaoling's analysis is much more in-depth than these freshmen, not only talking about harmony and melody, but also analyzing along with it, and even some of the little tricks that Yang Jingxing played when writing can be seen thoroughly.
After talking for a long time, Yang Jingxing was embarrassed to look at people. Gong Xiaoling finally asked: "When I was teaching my sophomore year, many of my classmates said at the beginning that this song was about beautiful love and was particularly touching...... What do you think now?"
Several people looked at Yang Jingxing and smiled: "I don't know either." ”
Gong Xiaoling also smiled, and after a while, she said: "From the beginning, the prelude is very beautiful, and it can quickly draw the attention of the audience and look at the two melodies...... What reminds you of it?"
Nobody knows.
Gong Xiaoling sighed lightly: "If life is only as ...... first seen"
A few people looked at Yang Jingxing again, and he was laughing embarrassedly.
Gong Xiaoling continued to analyze, and then played in front of the piano and asked: "What is this paragraph about? Why is there such a collision of dissonant intervals, and there are only two in the whole piece. ”
A girl whispered: "A little helpless?"
Gong Xiaoling praised: "That's right, this is a kind of helpless fleeting...... Also, this kind of vocal transcendence is generally not recommended, why does this paragraph recur ......"
Originally, it was said that this was a beautiful little song about love, but in the end, Gong Xiaoling led the students to analyze it into a song full of sadness and helplessness, which is not necessarily a description of love, but may also be a kind of other feelings full of connotation.
Gong Xiaoling didn't ask Yang Jingxing about his thoughts and opinions, so he could only giggle there from beginning to end.
After class, several people came to Yang Jingxing to ask for the scores of all his works. Some studious people also asked: "Yang Jingxing, what is your motivation for writing this ensemble?"
Yang Jingxing smiled bitterly: "I really don't know what is written blindly." ”
On Friday evening, at 6:30 p.m., the Composition Department held a semester exhibition in the Old Concert Hall. Yang Jingxing took Yu Xinting and An Xin to meet Qi Qingnuo, who had not seen each other for a few days.
Yang Jingxing asked: "Where did you go? ”
Qi Qingnuo said: "It's all busy. Asked Yu Xinting and An Xin: "Are you going tomorrow night?"
Yu Xinting nodded: "Go hehe, An Xin and I still have to buy flowers." ”
After entering, Qi Qingnuo found his classmates and sat together, and Yang Jingxing still took Yu Xinting and them to squat in the back row.
There are a total of fifty or sixty people in the undergraduate composition department of the Conservatory of Music, but most of them are not as prolific as Yang Jingxing, so as long as the works are a little decent, they will have the opportunity to be on stage.
From the lower grades, the first song was Yang Jingxing's "Sun in the Rain", which seemed to be played by the school's orchestra as an opening song, and the orchestra of more than 40 people was arranged according to Yang Jingxing's score requirements, and the orchestra was conducted by a young teacher from the conducting department. They had only been practicing for a day or two, and Yang Jingxing didn't even look at it.
Although it is an old concert hall, the acoustics are still good. The brass chorus of preludes immediately silenced the somewhat boisterous vocals.
"Sun in the Rain" is not a grand work, and it is very commercial, so the performance is simple, there is no need to nitpick, and there is no need for the conductor and the orchestra to have a deep understanding of the work. Although the orchestra didn't have much time to practice, it also made mistakes in performance. Brass unison can be regarded as magnificent, and the string pizzicament is relatively neat.
The power of these dozens of people and dozens of musical instruments is not comparable to hundreds of thousands of double-row keys. All the instruments in the orchestra are performance-level, and they add up to millions. If Yang Jingxing can achieve a magnificent effect with the double-row keys and the ensemble of Qi Qingnuo and Yu Xinting, then the orchestra's expressiveness in this concert hall will be several floors higher.
Yu Xinting was excited, and after seeing enough of being on stage, she also watched Yang Jingxing, wanting to find out what it was like for him to hear his work being played by an orchestra for the first time. Yang Jingxing looked at it very seriously.
At the end of the music, there was a whole round of warm applause, and even the teachers and professors sitting in the front row raised their noble hands. Although He Hongchui criticized the work for being commercialized without any ideology, he also encouraged the students.
Yu Xinting asked Yang Jingxing: "Can they?"
Yang Jingxing said: "Very good. ”
Yu Xinting said: "I also think it's very good...... If it was like this last time, you would have won the prize, or the first place. ”
Yang Jingxing smiled: "I will take your words as a reward." ”
The orchestra didn't quit, and there were definitely big productions in the future, and they were also the audience. Then Luo Jiaqian went up and played and sang the song she saw in the composition competition last time, her guitar skills are really good, and she got a lot of applause. It's a pity that Xu Xuesi has no chance to come to power.
There are only three works in the freshman year, and then the sophomore year. There is a jazz-style piano trio, which is not bad, and it should belong to the kind of single-minded writing style that He Hongchui said.
The sophomore year was not much lively, but as soon as the junior year came, there was an atmosphere immediately. Qi Qingnuo was in front with a group of people, and she was noisy and whistled.
After a piano sketch, the curtain said: "Next is the song work of Peng Yiwei in the junior composition department, and the campus folk song "Passionate Iceberg Beauty" is played and sung by Peng Yiwei. ”
Peng Yiwei and Yang Jingxing met each other, and they also went to the composition competition last time, and their appearance was not good, but they were more interesting, cheerful and talkative, and had a good relationship with Qi Qingnuo.
Peng Yiwei came to the stage and carried the folk guitar off the stage, and his friends coaxed him to make a scene. After Peng Yiwei sat down, he said: "Who is this song dedicated to? ”
Someone laughed out loud below.
Sure enough, Peng Yiwei only sang a few words, and the concert hall became lively. This song is a typical campus ballad, with a good melody, a simple theme, and obvious content: "...... She refused, you rejected me, but she was still enthusiastic, her name was Qi Qingnuo...... "Catchy."
Peng Yiwei couldn't help but laugh while singing, and the juniors in the audience, the composition department, and even the non-composition department, a group of boys laughed as if they had completed a special prank.
Qi Qingnuo sat in the middle of the group of people, and his body slid down a little towards the chair, as if he wanted to hide. She put her arms on the chair resting her hands, raised her right wrist and half-clenched her fist, and put her index finger on the middle of the person to block her mouth, but she could still see that she was chuckling, and her eyes were even more watery.
Peng Yiwei was enthusiastically encouraged by the audience: "Let's ...... together"
The group below was really obedient and sang the chorus in unison: "She refused, you rejected me, but she was still enthusiastic, her name is Qi Qingnuo." ”
This is much more than Yang Jingxing's opening song, and even the teachers laughed.
Yu Xinting smiled and looked at Yang Jingxing, who was also laughing: "It's fun." ”
Yang Jingxing sang in a small voice: "...... But she was still enthusiastic......"
This is the most ** song tonight, and the applause is thunderous at the end. What has a dramatic effect is that the next is Qi Qingnuo's work, which is also a song.
The announcer was still talking, Qi Qingnuo had already stood up from his seat, and it was the group of people who brought a burst of applause and a commotion. Qi Qingnuo walked quickly to the stage and sat in front of the piano and looked very calm: "This song is dedicated to my friends." ”
Yang Jingxing also coaxed Yu Xinting and An Xin to slap hard.
When Qi Qingnuo's piano sounded, the crowd fell silent again. Peng Yiwei's song just now was a bit joking and a little enthusiastic, but Qi Qingnuo's song was very quiet and had a more country music feel.
The piano accompaniment is relatively simple, Qi Qingnuo plays easily and leisurely, and she plays guitar with two simple gestures, and the lyrics are sung very softly: "...... My dear friends wish you happiness, my dear friends wish you happiness, our dear friends we open our hearts, our dear friends we do not get drunk and do not return......"
Qi Qingnuo's current appearance is not enthusiastic at all, he is simply a docile little lamb. The song is very good, especially relaxed and smooth, with a simple and gentle melody. Especially in this kind of atmosphere, the feeling of gentleness and beauty is even stronger.
At the end of the song, Qi Qingnuo quickly stepped down. Yu Xinting applauded and asked Yang Jingxing, "Have you heard of it?"
Yang Jingxing shook his head: "No." ”
Yu Xinting said: "It's also a little touching to listen to and sing. ”
Yang Jingxing smiled: "Of course, we are also her friends." ”
It was close to ten o'clock and the show was over. I still have to evaluate the rankings, but it didn't take long for the results to come out. To hold a simple award ceremony, the third place is an orchestra work in the fourth year, the second place is also a trio in the fourth year, and the first place is Yang Jingxing.
When the announcer read out Yang Jingxing's name, Yu Xinting and An Xin were so happy that they seemed to have seen a big meal, and the two of them held hands and congratulated each other.
Yang Jingxing came to the stage and received a certificate of merit from He Hongchui, with no bonus. When he came down, he passed by Qi Qingnuo's row and said to Peng Yiwei: "This should actually be given to you." ”
Peng Yiwei haha: "We focus on participation. ”
Qi Qingnuo also lowered his eyes: "Where are you going to celebrate?"
Yang Jingxing said: "Tomorrow night." ”
Qi Qingnuo nodded.
