Early the next morning, the Municipal Palace of Culture.

The orchestra is basically divided into strings, woodwinds, brass, and some other instruments.

For the effect of mixing reverberation, the position of various instruments will also be a little particular, for example, the strings will be in the front, the violin on the left, the cello on the right, the woodwinds will generally be in the middle, the brass will be in the back, and the percussion will be at the end. For example, the piano is usually in the middle of the comparison.

In this configuration, the sound effect is the best.

This formation is a bit grand, Gan Qi stands in front of the front, facing a team of dozens of people, and he is still a little weak-hearted, Lin Haiyin obviously knows that Gan Qi has not been in contact with this kind of formation, and nodded with Gan Qi and said: "It's okay, you arrange, it's all up to you." ”

Gan Qi took a deep breath and took out a large stack of copied sheet music: "Let's send it, this is relatively simple for you, get familiar with it, let's give it a try later." ”

After that, Gan Qi helped everyone divide the score, different instruments, different passages, and different scores.

After the division, Lin Haiyin stood in front and said, "Everyone cooperate with Teacher Gan more today, thank you for your hard work." ”

Many musicians, most of them are at a loss, some people don't know Ganqi, which is okay, listening to the arrangement of the head of the troupe, some people know Ganqi, but they are a little puzzled.

Some people also exchanged their heads: "This is Gan Qi in that good Chinese song, right?"

"Yes, yes, I remember, it's him. ”

"He's quite famous, his poems are well written, and some of his songs are pretty good. ”

"But why did he come to our orchestra all of a sudden? Can he play with this thing?"

"Playing guitar, the crossover is too big. ”

"Anyway, the head of the regiment knows it. ”

"The head of the regiment just knows it, and he won't let him fool around......"

……

Lin Haiyin took Gan Qi to sit in the lounge on the side, Lin Haiyin took out a small long box from his bag, handed it to Gan Qi, and said, "Baton." ”

Gan Qi opened the box, a long black baton, picked it up and looked at it, and smiled: "I'm really nervous. ”

"First time, right?"

"For the first time. ”

"I was nervous the first time, it's okay, I've read all your scores, it's relatively simple, and it's not a big problem if it's good in series. Anyway, you're not a professional, no one will laugh at you, just try it and have fun. "Lin Haiyin is very relaxed.

"I still have a little bit of a requirement for myself, it's not easy to conduct this thing, the tandem music is just the basics, and I want to do it well. "Ganchi seems to have a little bit of ambition.

When Lin Haiyin heard Gan Qi say this, he suddenly became more serious and asked, "What do you think about conducting music?"

Gan Qi really has some opinions: "Mr. Lin may think that I just need to grasp the beat accurately and connect the music well." But I don't think so myself, I write my own music, I have my own understanding, and this music comes out, which is what I want to express. Music, in itself, seems to be a matter of beats, but in fact it has little to do with beats, it is a movement, a rhythm, and even a feeling thing. Just like this baton, when it is gently waved in the hand, it does not mean anything in itself, but it is your feeling of the music, whether it is beautiful or not, soft or not, intense or not, excited or not, all in this feeling. ”

Lin Haiyin's face suddenly straightened, without the sense of relaxation just now, he thought that Gan Qi was here to be an accompanist, and let Gan Qi go to the conductor to play tickets, he didn't expect that Gan Qi really had a lot of insights in it.

After another conversation, Lin Haiyin immediately became serious: "You are not from a professional class, but I really didn't expect you to have this kind of cognition." Many people think that the baton is to direct which section starts and which paragraph. Although this truth is true, the feeling in it is indescribable, and a good conductor and a bad conductor are in this feeling. The beat has never been the soul of music, or even the most important thing in music, but too many people focus on the beat. ”

The most basic role of the orchestra conductor, including the baton in the conductor's hand, is used to connect the music.

For example, when one instrument ends and another instrument is about to start, the conductor will use the baton to point directly at the instrument to be raised after the connection to achieve a smooth connection.

When it comes to practical effects, the baton seems to be the only one. When the conductor performs, it seems that this is the only thing he does.

But a really powerful conductor will put his understanding of music completely on the baton, gestures and emotions, the speed of the rhythm, the severity and soothing of the music, the conductor can feel it, and can also use his body language to convey it. Of course, the early rehearsals are also doing this.

Music really reaches a certain point, the beat is never the point, the beat is such a thing, it really returns to people, that is, a feeling, fast so 0.01 second, slow so 0.01 second, but it is personal characteristics and understanding.

There are even musicians who write music that doesn't match the normal beat at all. For example, Jay Chou in Gan Qi's memory, many of Jay Chou's songs are not normal beats, as if Jay Chou himself invented a beat. Of course, misshooting is another matter.

You can also give another example, such as playing drums, obviously the beat of two people is exactly the same, why some people play good drums, and some people just don't listen to good drums. This is also the case, and even related to some very small differences in the contact time between the drumstick and the drum head.

It's good or bad to limit the music to the beat, but it's certainly not enough to understand the music.

Lin Haiyin's mentality has changed a little, and he began to take Gan Qi's ticket seriously.

Gan Qi also replied: "What I write, although it is just an accompaniment, I also want to express it well." So I was a little nervous. ”

Lin Haiyin patted Gan Qi's shoulder seriously and said, "This baton seems to have been given to the right person, depending on your performance." ”

Gankey nodded, stood up, took a few deep breaths, took the black baton, and walked to the stage.

Looking back, Qin Jing came, sitting in the corner of the door, wearing a pair of sunglasses. Yesterday she had a meal with Gan Qi, just a simple meal, and the topic was really how much money was paid for the song "Jiu'er". She knew that Gan Qi was coming to the Youth Symphony Orchestra today, but she was also here today, and she didn't let Gan Qi know in advance.

Gan Qi glanced at Qin Jing, without distractions, today's matter, Gan Qi is spirited and takes it very seriously.

Gan Qi on the podium spoke: "Are you familiar with the score?"

Someone replied, "It's a simple score, let's just do it." ”

It's not that these people are holding it up, but they are all strictly trained musicians who have been trained since childhood, can enter the symphony orchestra to gain a firm foothold, and are extremely talented in instruments and music.

It's their professional self-confidence.

Gan Qi also believes in the professional ability of these people, but he also knows that these great musicians do not take today's events seriously, and arranging a song accompaniment, and it is not a large-scale concert, and it is not worthy of the attention of these top musicians in the industry.

Gan Qi didn't think much about it, and said directly: "Then let's do it first." ”
