Chapter 55: Pre-Shoot Practice
Every year on the founding day, Modu Senior Experimental High School will hold a large-scale art show, students who can sing and dance can show their talents at this time, and on this day, the school is open to the parents of students, and parents are also willing to come to the school to enjoy the performance of their children or their children's classmates.
Last year's founding day performance, the program prepared by the first class of the second year of high school was Duan Nanfeng's piano solo, he was in the limelight at that art show, and won the title of school grass.
This year, no students have signed up for new programs, because everyone is not confident to defeat the sensation caused by Duan Nanfeng last year. The head teacher originally planned to submit Duan Nanfeng's piano performance, but suddenly remembered that Ji Ning's admission profile said that she was good at piano.
So Duan Nanfeng's piano solo became a male and female duo, and the song played by the two was called "The Sound of the Wind".
......
There was a grand piano in the school's music classroom, and Liu Yan arrived at the music classroom at half past six in the evening, probably because she came too early, and there were only two crew members chatting in the classroom.
Liu Yan said hello to the two, and when she came to the piano, she opened the lid, ran her fingers over the familiar black and white keys, and tried a few notes first.
She put the score on the piano stand, sat down on the piano, and began to play "The Sound of the Wind".
The melodious tune sounded, and the two staff members stopped talking and began to listen carefully to Liu Yan's piano sound.
Compared with the classical piano music composed by those famous musicians, the melody of "The Sound of the Wind" does not have too many techniques, nor does it have those complex rhythms and timbres, it is more like a popular song that conforms to the aesthetics of modern people, the melody is smart and fresh but contains a touch of sadness and pathos, as if hinting at the short life of Ji Ning's character, like the wind, fleeting.
Liu Yan finished playing the first time in its entirety, and someone applauded behind her.
She turned around, Tang Tu didn't know when he came, not only him, but also Ye Zi'an and a few staff members. Liu Yan hurriedly stood up.
Ye Zi'an stood next to a young man with glasses, slightly short, and a small beard, this man looked at Liu Yan with some surprise, and looked her up and down, "Eh, aren't you a goddess of Hanfu?"
Ye Zi'an was puzzled, "What Hanfu goddess?"
"Director Ye, you don't care too much about the Internet, in the past two days, there is a video that is very popular on Weibo, this girl is the protagonist of the video, and people on the Internet call her the goddess of Hanfu," the young man was very impressed by Liu Yan.
Ye Zi'an also has Weibo, which was registered by his assistant for him, he never takes care of it, and it is rare to post a piece of content for several months, if it weren't for more than a million fans following him, his Weibo would be like a zombie dead number.
"Oh," Ye Zi'an nodded to indicate that he understood, and asked the young man, "How do you think she plays?"
"Very good, I said I didn't ask for much. ”
Tang Tu introduced this man to Liu Yan in a timely manner, "He is the composer of "The Sound of the Wind", Xue Feiyun. ”
Liu Yan also guessed that Xue Feiyun was not good-looking and in good shape, but he had his own artistic aura, like a composer.
"Hello, Teacher Xue," Liu Yan stepped forward to greet him.
"Don't don't, don't, I can't be your teacher, I'm just a songseller," Xue Feiyun said modestly, and looked at Liu Yan carefully, and marveled in his heart that this girl herself was even more beautiful than in the video.
Later, Liu Yan learned from the Internet and other people that Xue Feiyun is a gold medal composer who is now popular, and a top student who graduated from Berklee College of Music in the United States.
"Since you think it's okay, then let her and Tang Tu have a good run-in, and if the speed can catch up, the official shooting will be made tomorrow morning," Ye Zi'an said.
Xue Feiyun made an OK gesture,
"By the way, did you find the word I asked you to find?" he asked Ye Zi'an.
Ye Zi'an had a headache and said, "I've been busy with the filming of the movie recently, so I don't have time to worry about this, let's talk about it after the filming is over." ”
Xue Feiyun shrugged, "Whatever you want, when the time comes, it will slow down the progress, don't blame me for not reminding you." ”
Ye Zi'an looked at Liu Yan and Tang Tu again, "Feiyun is here tonight to guide the two of you to play the piano, no matter what he asks, you will do as he says." ”
After speaking, Ye Zi'an left non-stop, and there were still a bunch of people waiting for him to shoot on the set of the villa, and he didn't fall at either end.
"Listening to Director Ye, both of you are students of the Capital Conservatory of Music, and you are from a serious academic background, so you don't need me to say more in terms of musical literacy and skills," Xue Feiyun touched his mustache and said to the two, "This piece was written by me after reading the script of this film, I like this script very much, and my only requirement for you is completeness and harmony." Director Ye doesn't like to find dubbing when making movies, and prefers real-time recording, I hope you can cooperate well, and you will pass it once tomorrow. ”
Xue Feiyun said that he didn't ask for it, but in fact he was too demanding. Putting aside the big and empty concept of complete harmony, the meaning of real-time recording is that Liu Yan and Tang Tu need to play the effect of a live piano recital, which is impossible for amateur pianists or some people who only regard the piano as a hobby, no wonder Professor Qiu bothered to go to the conservatory to select actors.
Tang Tu felt that it was not difficult to make this request, but the problem was Liu Yan, who had not participated in a serious recital so far.
Tang Tu saw Liu Yan's face embarrassed, after all, he had "eavesdropped" on her performance and understood her level, Tang Tu reassured her in a low voice, "Don't worry, we will practice a few more times tonight, you have to believe in yourself first." ”
"Okay, let's assign it now, Tang Tu, you play the chord transposition, and Liu Yan will follow the original score," Xue Feiyun took the pen and wrote and drew on the score, "You can start practicing, if there is anything wrong or you don't understand, you can ask me at any time." ”
Tang Tu sat down on the piano first, and he said to Liu Yan with a smile, "Let me familiarize myself with the feel first." ”
Then he began to play "The Sound of the Wind", and the smooth and natural melody poured out of his hands.
Liu Yan's amazed side eyes, no wonder the classmates in the school respect Tang Tu, Tang Tu is really talented in music, even if you don't look at his superb and handsome appearance, he looks like his whole body is shining when he plays the piano,
Listening to his near-perfect "practice", who would have thought that he was actually a violin student?
is also playing an instrument that he is not good at, Tang Tu is much better than Liu Yan.
I really don't know how amazing he is when he plays the violin.
Xue Feiyun was also very satisfied with Tang Tu, and said three "good" in a row.
It's not a big problem for two people to play alone, so what about working together?
