Chapter 50: The Original Scenery of the Hometown
This Wu Le is not a star, he doesn't have such a strong sense of variety shows and experience in dealing with this situation, a little ridicule, it's almost fine, and he can't really embarrass people too much. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Wang Yuan turned the topic to the instrument in Wu Le's hand and said, "Tell us about the instrument in your hand." ”
Speaking of the guy in his hand, Wu Le finally became happy, and introduced with a smile: "This instrument is called the ukulele, which is the most popular musical instrument in Hawaii, and it belongs to the guitar instrument family according to the classification, so some people call it Hawaiian small guitar..."
Wu Le introduced the origin, classification, popular area, timbre characteristics, playing skills and other characteristics of the ukulele, basically gave a comprehensive explanation of this instrument, and finally left time for Wu Le to play to show off his skills. Xiao Yao had to admit that whether it was in terms of proficiency or skill, this Wu Le could completely blow up his current self.
After Wu Le, Chen Wen who came forward was holding the banjo, and he also introduced the banjo according to the aspects of Wu Le's introduction to the ukulele, of course, live performance is also indispensable. If you don't play Banjo, Xiao Yao can't judge his skill level, but since he can be found by the program team, he must be a good person in this area.
After the introduction of Western musical instruments, the following are the two girls holding traditional Chinese musical instruments. The two girls took longer than the two young men, just Miss Liu holding Ruan, and Miss Ruan holding Liu ~ Qin This interesting coincidence is enough for the host to ridicule for a while.
After the introduction and performance of the four people on the stage, Wang Yuan hit the idea on Xiao Siqi and Xiao Yao's father and son on the side of the stage. He said to the two: "You father and son can also play musical instruments, do you want to come up and try it?"
Xiao Yao shook his head and whispered to Xiao Siqi: "There is no need for ukulele, the other three are still too big for me, Dad, you can try it." ”
"Okay. Xiao Siqi nodded with a smile and walked to the center of the stage.
Coming to the center of the stage, Xiao Siqi said to everyone: "Bayi said that except for the ukulele, these three things are still too big for him, and it is difficult for him to reach, so I will try it alone." ”
Everyone thought about it, so they didn't force Xiao Yao. Several people took turns to whisper and communicate with Xiao Siqi, probably talking about some playing skills and the corresponding frets of each scale in the neck part, Xiao Siqi had a good look, and each played a short piece of music. Ukulele and Banjo belong to the same guitar category is better, Xiao Siqi is a big man playing the pipa Liuqin and Ruan, just the appearance of holding it in his hand is enough to make people laugh, and the fingering of the pipa instrument is also quite different from the guitar, Xiao Siqi plays very awkwardly, but everyone is quite happy in their eyes.
Several hosts laughed a little at Xiao Siqi's funny demeanor of playing Liuqin and Ruan, and then let Xiao Siqi return to Xiao Yao's side. After thanking the four for the performance, and after inviting the four to return to the backstage, the five hosts began to invite the next group of guests.
Wang Yuan said: "These instruments just now are simple and only need to be used, but there are also some musical instruments that need to be used in addition to hands. ”
Andy, as the second host, immediately answered: "Is that what you said?" As he spoke, Andy took the microphone in both hands instead, covered the microphone to his mouth, and came to an impromptu b-box.
"Although your mouth can also be used as a musical instrument, you only need to move your mouth, why do you need to use your hands? Liu Yang was the first to stand up and retort.
Wang Yuan smiled and said, "Of course." What we just showed is a plucked stringed instrument, which is hands-on and mouth-moving, and I'm talking about both hands and mouth, and I'm talking about wind instruments. Then he turned to his companions and asked, "When it comes to playing wind instruments, what do you think of?"
"Harmonica. Li Xian, who has not been talking much, was the first to answer this time.
"Well, this one is. Wang Yuan nodded.
"Trumpet, trombone, French horn. Andy said three things in one breath.
"Saxophone, clarinet. Liu Yang picked it up.
"It's all foreign, and there are also in our country, horns, suona. Xu Bo despised the other three.
"Well, you're all right, all of them. Wang Yuan said, "But the instrument brought by the guest we are going to invite next is also a wind instrument, but none of you have said it." Here's what our guests are like. ”
Amid a piece of music, a middle-aged man in his forties walked up from the backstage. The middle-aged man walked straight to the center of the stage with empty hands and a headset on his headset, bowed slightly and introduced himself: "Hello everyone, I'm Cao Zhongyun." ”
"Is this the end?" The music stopped, and Wang Yuan was the first to walk up and ask Cao Zhongyun, "Mr. Cao, where is your instrument?"
Cao Zhongyun smiled, pointed to the side of the stage and said, "There, here, here." With Cao Zhongyun's words, a staff member pushed a small cart up, and there were several pottery musical instruments on the small cart.
"Wow, that's a lot. Liu Yang and several others were shocked.
"It seems like a lot, but in fact, there are only two categories. Cao Zhongyun smiled and pointed to the musical instruments on the cart and said, "A few here are ocarina, and a few over there are Xun." It's just that the specifications and form factor are a little different. ”
Wang Yuan took the opportunity to introduce: "Let me introduce, Mr. Cao is a maker and performer of pottery wind instruments, and he is also the music creator of this type of instrument, so he can be said to be an expert in this area." ”
Cao Zhongyun arched his hand with a smile and said, "I have won the prize." ”
After everyone below was amazed, Wang Yuan continued to ask Cao Zhongyun, "Did you make these with your own hands?"
"Uh... Most of them are. Cao Zhongyun paused slightly, pointed to a few of them and said, "I didn't make these ones, it's just that they are more interesting in appearance, I collected them, and brought them to everyone to see fresh." I've made these myself with a more traditional look. ”
"Then please tell us about them one by one. Wang Yuan left the center of the stage to Cao Zhongyun.
"This is the ocarina, which is a Western musical instrument that came from abroad. This is also called the Ocarina flute, which is a literal translation of the English name Ocarina. The more common ones are six holes and twelve holes. In addition, there are other holes such as seven holes, eight holes, nine holes, etc., but they are relatively few. In terms of shape, the six-hole ocarina is mainly spherical or teardrop-shaped, and the twelve-hole ocarina is mainly this appearance that looks like a submarine. And then all these other gun shapes, animal shapes, plant shapes, which you see are some of the more alternative and playful. Cao Zhongyun slowly introduced, and with his explanation, he also picked up the corresponding ocarina one by one and showed it to everyone.
"After introducing the ocarina, here is our traditional Chinese musical instrument - Xun. The history of this instrument is very old, much longer than the history of the ocarina. It is one of the oldest wind instruments in China, and it is believed to have a history of 7,000 years. Cao Zhongyun picked up the Xun on the other side and said to everyone: "In ancient times, Xun was mainly six-hole, and now it is mainly eight-hole, and there are also some nine-hole and ten-hole ones. Its shape is generally more oval, but there are many other special shapes, such as this is a gourd Xun, the shape is like a gourd, this kind of fit to the hand shape is called a hand, this is a lady Xun, according to the appearance of the lady in the ancient painting. In addition to the appearance, there is also a conjoined Xun that connects the two Xun, this two of the same size is called Mandarin Duck Xun, and this kind of big and small one is called Zimu Xun..."
It took Cao Zhongyun a while to finish introducing the pile of ocarinas and xun on the cart. According to the procedure, it is time for the live wind performance. Just as Wang Yuan was about to open his mouth to call Cao Zhongyun to demonstrate on the spot, Xiao Siqi next to him suddenly interjected: "Brother Yuan, can you let Bayi try the ocarina." ”
"Bayi will blow this?" Wang Yuan asked Xiao Siqi with a smile, "How many musical instruments have you taught him?"
"It's just three or four. Xiao Siqi replied, "But I won't know the ocarina, Bayi's ocarina is self-taught, and I only knew that he would do this last time I filmed the show." Because he doesn't have a teacher, he is purely self-taught, so I don't know what his level is, and it just so happens that Mr. Cao is an expert in this area, so I want to take this opportunity to let Mr. Cao guide him. ”
"So that's the case, of course it's okay for Bayi to try it, but when it comes to guidance..."Wang Yuan turned to Cao Zhongyun and said, "Mr. Cao, look..."
Cao Zhongyun came to participate in the recording of this episode of the show, and naturally he would not be ignorant of the celebrity guests on the same stage. When I learned about the celebrity guests before, I was already deeply impressed by the father and son who had recently become popular, especially Xiao Yao, who was known as the demon. Originally, he was as suspicious as some people on the Internet, thinking that it was a fake blow by the program team. But just now, after watching his language interaction with the host and the performance of the ukulele in the background, he has already admitted in his heart that this is a real demon. Now that I heard that he can play the ocarina, he still has no teacher and is self-taught, so his curiosity is even greater, so he naturally wants to see it.
Seeing Cao Zhongyun nodding, Xiao Yao didn't twist, and immediately stood up and walked over. Xiao Siqi saw that his son was on the field, so he naturally followed.
Xiao Yao picked up a six-hole ocarina and said, "Uncle Cao, my hands are still too small, I can't grasp the twelve-hole one, I can only use the six-hole one." ”
"It's okay, which one will blow which one. Cao Zhongyun said with a smile.
Xiao Yao nodded, brought the ocarina to his mouth and blew it. Speaking of regular ocarina music, Xiao Yao is most familiar with the song "The Original Scenery of Hometown", in front of Cao Zhongyun, an expert, Xiao Yao is not easy to fool with other tunes, so this time it is still this one.
With the melodious sound, the scene gradually quieted down. This is a song that is easy to calm down and immerse yourself in the mood. The last time Xiao Yao played this song was on the open grassland, and a lot of inevitable noises were mixed in it, which could calm the cows. This time, in the acoustics of the room, the audience was unusually quiet, and Andy was holding a microphone to amplify the sound of the ocarina, and this emotion was even more contagious.
After Xiao Yao finished blowing the song, some viewers were infected and their eyes were wet.
Wang Yuan is a particularly emotional person, and his eyes are also a little red at this time. In order to hide his gaffe, he deliberately asked Cao Zhongyun: "Mr. Cao, what is the name of this piece, and who are the authors and performers? ”
Cao Zhongyun's surprise turned to embarrassment, and he said embarrassedly: "This... It's the first time I've heard this tune. ”
"No, right? Such a beautiful tune can't be unpublished, right? Where did you learn Bayi?" Wang Yuan said in surprise.
"Ahem. Xiao Siqi coughed on the side.
"You wrote it?" Wang Yuan was even more surprised, "Aren't you a pop singer? You also write pure music? No, didn't you say that you don't know the ocarina? This is obviously a special ocarina song." ”
"No, no," Xiao Siqi hurriedly said, "Of course I didn't write it, but someone I knew wrote it." The two songs on my new album are the one I worked with on XY, you know, he wrote. The guy didn't want to show up.,So he often threw some of the things he wrote to me.,This piece is mixed in a bunch of music scores that XY gave me.,It was accidentally discovered by Bayi.。 At that time, he taught himself the ocarina, and when he saw this ocarina song, he learned it. ”
"The more this dad's lies are told, the smoother they become. Xiao Yao glanced at Xiao Siqi and said in his heart. But there is no way, he was also forced by himself.
Xiao Siqi continued: "After Bayi learned this song, he played it in front of the camera a total of twice, except for this time, the last time it was in the program "Where Are You Going, Dad", and it has not been broadcast yet, so it is normal that Mr. Cao has not heard it. ”
"Oh, we are actually the second group of listeners, but what I want to know is who Bayi played this tune for the first time?" Liu Yang said curiously.
"This... Is it a spoiler?Director Wu doesn't know it, right?" Xiao Siqi glanced at the camera at the scene in embarrassment.
"It's okay, when we broadcast this episode, your two episodes in the grassland have already been broadcast, and now there are no spoilers at all, it's really not good, we can still cut the ones that are not broadcast in the later stage." Andy said.
"Well, the first time Bayi played this tune, it was mainly for a group of cows. Xiao Siqi said with a smile.
"This... You might as well not spoil it!" Andy said hatefully.
