Chapter 243: Success

In contrast, Tang Qing seemed to pay more attention to the opinions of the people in the audience, and he proposed to let the members of 306 say what they thought.

Liu Siman was pushed to the first place, she stood up and reported to the rostrum: "Our group was formed two years ago, although it is said that everyone plays together, but everyone has worked hard from the beginning. It's because we all have expectations, so 306 has also encountered a lot of difficulties in the past two years, but we have overcome them.

That morning, Yang Jingxing said on stage that his love for music has nourished our lives, and I think he said it very well. Everyone at 306 is a good friend, and Yang Jingxing is also a good friend with us, and our friendship has grown up in the common pursuit of music, which I think is the most important. ”

Everyone seemed to think that Liu Siman said it very well, and they all clapped their hands and encouraged it, including Yang Jingxing.

Tang Qing asked, "How do you practice Yang Jingxing's works?"

"We practiced for two months, at least four times a week, including weekends, for at least three or four hours each time," Liu said. But I know that each of us spends more time in private. For example, our flute Chai Litian, she practices for at least an hour every night. There are also dulcimer, guzheng, pipa...... It's all there!"

Tang Qing nodded, and seemed to be very emotional: "You have spent so much time, is it because you believe that this is a work that can be successful?"

Liu Siman hesitated slightly: "It's more because we like it." ”

Tang Qing expressed his satisfaction, and then named him: "The female student who plays the flute." ”

Chai Litian stood up, she seemed a little restrained, she waited for a while and didn't hear the question before she took the initiative to speak: "I like 306, because it is here that gives me confidence, because each of them is like this, so ...... I love three-zero-six. ”

So brief? Everyone was surprised, but I would like to encourage you.

Tang Qing said: "You are a confident person, especially when you are playing. ”

Chai Litian was embarrassed: "Xie Luxie." ”

Tang Qing said: "Although I listened to Sang Peng's old friend a few days ago, I was still shocked today, I didn't expect that every student here has such mature performance skills! When I first got the score, I asked Mr. Zou Chunyu to find his best members. Now, I apologize to these female students for my indiscretion, and I'm ashamed. How can the success of the work be inseparable from the sweat and hard work of the performers!"

Everyone applauded.

Tang Qing added: "Of course, the success of students is also inseparable from the training of teachers, after many years in Puyin, I would like to pay tribute to the teachers and professors here again!"

Applause again.

The person who played the guzheng was named again, and Gao Pianpian stood up, as if he was prepared: "First of all, I want to thank my teacher, Professor Zhao Qin, from the attached school to the university, she made the guzheng a part of my life." I would also like to thank the rest of the 306 for helping me so much. Xie Lu, Xie Yang Jingxing and Qi Qingnuo, it was you who gave me a new understanding of music and new hope. I would also like to thank Professor Lu, Professor He, and Professor Gong. ”

Ding Sangpeng grasped the main point: "Tell me about your new understanding and new hope." ”

Gao Pianpin's expression was immediately a little embarrassed, and after she looked at her friends, she spoke a lot slower and said cautiously: "I used to think that our world realm was so narrow. I have paid so much for Guzheng since I was a child, and I am constantly improving...... Either way, we're never going to be as much of an Olympic gold medalist...... I don't want to be famous, but I'm not reconciled, and I can only dedicate my beloved music to so few people. The song of the star who can't sing at all is sung everywhere, but we ...... I either think it's unfair, it's just that it's painful!"

I feel that my true feelings have finally been revealed, and Gao Pianpian is really sorry and sad. But she is too arrogant, although the folk music is sluggish, but those famous performers are still very marketable and status. There are so many people in China, and one percent of them like folk music, and they are also worthy of many countries.

The principal was anxious to correct the students' artistic quality and state of mind, and said: "What Gao Pianpian means is what Ding Lao said, the mass foundation of folk music is still relatively weak. But I believe that as long as there are more people like you and Yang Jingxing, folk music will definitely return to the lives of the people. Okay, tell me about your new opinion. ”

Gao Pianpian, who was reminded, continued: "It was Yang Jingxing and Qi Qingnuo who made me understand that if it is gold, it will definitely shine." Instead of complaining and hesitating, we should think about how we can try to do our own thing. Moreover, music is extensive, and we can both stand up for our beliefs and gain the approval of our listeners. We can't afford to linger, there's a lot to do!"

Ding Sangpeng led everyone to applaud Gao Pianpian and said: "Hesitation is not terrible, it means that you are looking for direction, just temporarily lost." The terrible thing is that there is no hesitation, and it is necessary to pass and waste time, or to be satisfied with the status quo. Gao Pianpian, I understand what you mean, you want to dedicate music to more people, I believe you are all the same.

I have always believed that art workers should serve the masses. There must be a lot worth doing to serve the masses. There are many reasons for the current situation of folk music, such as the progress of the times and the impact of Western culture, but some people think that the masses have abandoned artists, and even think that the masses do not know how to appreciate it...... It is worth reflecting. ”

The vice chairman of the Federation of Literary and Art Circles continued: "Ding Lao's words, I will add a little. It is very undesirable to think that the masses do not understand the idea of appreciating fine art, but now it is more and more present. I think that as an artist, the masses don't know how to appreciate your works, and the responsibility lies not with the masses. Of course, as a responsible artist, you should be more responsible for the development of the audience's aesthetic consciousness, and you can't deliberately cater to it. In fact, there is no contradiction between these two points, and the case is in front of you. ”

Ding Sangpeng recalled the experience of taking the symphony orchestra to the grassroots to the countryside, and the peasant brothers at that time were also very welcoming to the orchestra.

After the artists discussed for a while, it was the turn of 306, and Tang Qing named the three-string players.

Puyin's three-string major, there is only one student in each grade, and He Peiyuan can be admitted not by her appearance and background. But perhaps because she can't concentrate on studying hard, He Peiyuan's three-string level is not particularly high, and she can't guarantee that the outstanding students of Puyin High School can also fight with her. In terms of music theory, He Peiyuan is not as rich and profound as Liu Siman or Chai Litian.

But these days' performances, He Peiyuan is very good and eye-catching, not relying on beauty or the position of the finale, but on the performance of music. The three-string concerto part of "It's Us" is the biggest breakthrough in traditional performance techniques and characteristics, but He Peiyuan was the fastest when she first practiced.

He Peiyuan, who has not been to work these days, stood up from her seat under the attention of many people, smiling lightly but with a bright face, she said: "I believe that every student who enters Puyin is full of dreams and dreams of success. I chatted with Qi Qingnuo the day before yesterday to discuss whether we had succeeded. She said not yet, and I don't think so. We have only taken a long step forward on the road of learning and struggle, but we are still far from success. But I'm happy because after this step, I'm more fulfilled, my dreams are more concrete and I have more confidence. Thank you to everyone who helped us. ”

Everyone was the same as the speech, and He Peiyuan also received applause. But Tang Qing didn't seem to want to listen to the three zero-six exchanging heartfelt complaints, and asked: "Can you tell us how you feel about participating in the performance of this work? You must also have your own thoughts and understanding of folk music." ”

He Peiyuan nodded and said, "I often work outside of school, and I generally have electrified sanxian, because merchants think that sanxian can't attract customers, but electric sanxian is very new to many people."

I once performed for a digital counter, because there was a problem with the equipment, I couldn't use the electric three strings, so I had to take the hard middle string I used today on stage, and partner with a keyboard teacher, who also graduated from our school. Originally, we were very worried, and the hasty preparation did not work very well, but the response of the audience was very good, and the merchants were also very satisfied.

Another point, many people don't believe it after hearing that I am majoring in Puyin strings, Liu Siman and they have also encountered this situation, and many people think that girls who learn erhu should have a very classical feeling with nostalgia. In fact, we, like all young girls, also love fashion and beauty. So I wondered if our vision was too limited, too far away from the audience.

In fact, Qi Qingnuo realized this very early on, so she has been moving closer to the audience in her own direction. After experiencing this May Day Music Festival, I am even more confident that her goal will be achieved, that is, we will succeed and be worthy of what our teachers taught us. ”

Each of the three zero-six was full of confidence and high morale, and there was another round of applause.

Tang Qing reminded everyone to pay attention to the fact that 306 is not only close to young audiences, but also to these older generation artists, so don't think that the artistic aesthetics of the old and young generations are incompatible.

Ding Sangpeng helped Tang Qing name: "What about the jazz guitar player?" Strictly speaking, Puyin does not have an electric guitar major, only a jazz guitar.

Of course, Cai Feixuan knew that he was talking about himself, and quickly stood up.

Ding Sangpeng said: "Twenty years ago, Puyin did not have a jazz guitar major. I'm sure you have a pivotal role in your team, so I'd like to hear from you. ”

He Peiyuan said: "Actually, when they first started looking for me, I was also worried. I'm afraid I'll be scolded if I appear on stage with them, or maybe they'll be scolded, after all, we're Puyin's students. I was also worried that we would have completely different understandings of music and would be difficult to work together, because I myself had little knowledge of folk music before. But Qi Qingnuo lied to me, saying that she was the same as me, but I have always been glad that I was deceived. ”

After being serious for so long, it is rare for everyone to smile.

Cai Feixuan himself smiled as he wished: "But I'm really worried about whether I can integrate into this group." Fortunately, from the very beginning, Qi Qingnuo took special care of me when arranging the music, which made me feel useful. ”

Tang Qing corrected: "You play a very big role, you are indispensable." ”

Taiwanese composer Xiao Zhengyuan said: "And you are the bridge between the left and right, connecting the ancient and the modern, China and the world." ”

Cai Feixuan was embarrassed: "I'm embarrassed to be in front of the experts, but since Qi Qingnuo's arrangement of "Contra", I feel that we are really making music, and everyone is indispensable." Both the lead and the chorus feel very harmonious, and I feel the charm of folk music more and more deeply.

I've been in rock, metal, and punk since junior high school, and I basically didn't have access to folk music before college. But now I like folk music more and more, and yesterday morning we performed in the big playground, and many of my friends came to see it, and they also liked it very much, and they really thought it was very good. Through this transformation of my own, I believe that the charm of folk music is still there, no matter what age group it is. ”

Everyone also expressed their appreciation for Cai Feixuan's views, and the principal said: "Before inviting the next member of 306, I would like to hear from the students majoring in folk music composition here, what do you think of this attempt by 306 and Yang Jingxing?"

A student from the Department of Folk Music Composition took the initiative to stand up: "Hello to respected seniors, teachers, and classmates. I'm Xu Hongliang, a third-year folk music composition major. First of all, I want to congratulate Yang Jingxing, Qi Qingnuo and the girls of 306, and cheer for you.

But I also want to remind you here. Qi Qingnuo has always been the best student in the composition department, and so has Yang Jingxing. Everyone in the school knows that Yang Jingxing has a lot of works, and he already has several popular songs, "Cardamom", "Xiaguang" needless to mention. "Sun in the Rain" was not originally composed for folk music, and there is an orchestral version, which has been played by the school symphony orchestra, and I think it is no worse than 306. There is also a piano trumpet ensemble "Wind and Rain", which has been performed many times in schools and is not low in popularity. Recently there was also a piano sonata, which is said to be unprecedented, at least in our school!

What I want to ask is, is the success of "It's We" the success of folk music or the success of the composer? If it is the success of folk music, is there anything we can learn from? Thank you, thank you!"

This classmate was very excited when he spoke, except for Yang Jingxing, who was thinking, and the people in the first row basically looked back.

Ding Sangpeng praised: "This question is very good. This classmate, I want to ask you, do you think "It's Us" is folk music?"

Xu Hongliang stood up again and was a lot more respectful: "This, I don't dare to make a conclusion." ”

Ding Sangpeng said: "Folk music is a general term for folk music, national music, and national instrumental music. Today, we pay more attention to ethnic music and ethnic instrumental music. The principal has already said that the question of national style, and I think it is right. And everyone can see that the work "It's Us" still retains a lot of traditional characteristics of pentatonic and national instrumental music, and of course, there are more innovative attempts. Folk instrumental music, today there are keyboards, guitars, jazz drums on the stage. However, if we replace the erhu with a violin, the bamboo flute with a flute, and the guzheng with a harp, they all change. Think about it, what are we going to hear?"

Everyone thought about it, someone shook their heads slightly, and Xu Hongliang seemed to be a little angry.

Ding Sangpeng continued: "What is certain is that we will not be so moved, and everyone will not be gathered here. Therefore, I believe that today's success is the success of the composer, and even more importantly, the success of folk music!"

Although the old man's tone was not so impassioned, the audience applauded fiercely.
