Chapter 751: One Night
The girls on the stage were amazing, the instruments in their hands were like their weapons, and the swords were unsheathed, and no one dared to plunder them.
In the hearts of Wang Zizi and Huang Jing, Xu Jing must have been beaten a few times.
After they were debugged, they were ready to start, mainly looking at Zuo Shuqin's side, she has rich stage experience, but she is not stage frightened. However, she doesn't have the strength of Qin Fangge, she also needs a microphone, just have a wireless belt on her head, so as not to take up space, the stage is not big, and she also has to play an electric guitar.
Zuo Shuqin stretched out his hand and pointed to Qin Fangge among the girls, and briefly introduced, "His new song "One Night in Yanjing", I hope you like it!"
After hearing her report such a song title, Xu Jing, Xue Min, and He Ruyun were stunned for a moment, and they didn't know what Qin Fangge meant. The first thing they remembered was that night of wandering and confusion. Although they all know that there are more **** factors, in their hearts, they still don't want to be treated as a one-night stand.
Xu Jing was also secretly ruthless in his heart, if Qin Fangge's song was not satisfactory, then he would be good-looking.
Xue Min and He Ruyun both had similar thoughts, and it was slightly better for Wanqing to sit down, although she didn't know what he was thinking.
God is pitiful, Qin Fangge really didn't think about it so much, this was not his own original work. is another world, Chen Sheng composed the music and wrote the lyrics with Liu Jiahui, but he always felt that whether it was arranging or singing, he buried this song. Anyway, there are so many original and cover versions, and none of them satisfy him.
As a result, he also made drastic changes, in addition to retaining the main melodic lyrics, as well as the way the male and female chorus was choired.
The first one is Qin Fangge, well, there are several erhu players who are in sync with him, everyone has been together for so long, and the tacit understanding cultivated is enough to be competent for more complex performances, such a ticket-like performance, whether it is Qin Fangge or Feng Lulu, it is a piece of cake.
The ensemble of five erhu immediately calmed the scene, and the bar, which originally had some sounds, immediately quieted down. The sound of the erhu that is like crying seems to set the tone of the whole song, poignant and sad.
Subsequently, Yu Xiaoxia's sanxian also joined, and Pan Linna's drum kit also followed up in due course, and she played such songs with ease, which is the advantage of switching from classical music to playing pop music.
And when Qin Fangge was arranging the music, he also wanted to improve the force of the song as much as possible, and in the first minute, there were no vocal singing, but all kinds of musical instruments on the stage had already joined in, weaving a poignant picture. Because of the poignant melody, the audience can also listen patiently and look forward to it.
For many audiences who have never heard a folk music ensemble, the shock brought by their way of playing is also incomparable. Even with this bleak and sad tone, there is still that atmospheric, open, and eclectic feeling.
Compared to a concert hall or other performance venue, the bar is really small, which is even better. Although they are not as good as the symphony orchestra, they are also a national orchestra with so many people.
Although there are many instruments, the arrangement and orchestration are well done, and they will not give people a chaotic and noisy feeling, and each instrument has its own duties and is well arranged, which is just a common thing for them, but when the uninformed audience hears it, they will feel so powerful!
Xu Jing also wondered in her heart, when will they pretend to be and sing!
For example, Zuo Mengfeng, Wu Ruhui, and Chen Yumo are much calmer, and they can calmly analyze the structure of this prelude, and the meaning expressed is not complicated.
As the backbone of the erhu, after the other instruments gradually stopped, it still played like a cry, but the scale dropped a lot.
Zuo Shuqin, who was belated, only began to sing at this time, but it was not the popular singing method that everyone was familiar with, and it was a Peking Opera accent. She is an authentic Yanjing native, and she has listened to a lot of Peking Opera since she was a child, although she has not formally learned it, but it is not too difficult to imitate the taste, especially as it is now, when the requirements are not high.
Coupled with the bass erhu three-stringed bass, plus her own guitar, Pan Lina's drum kit also has a long charm.
"I don't want to ask you where you are
I don't want to think about whether you can come back
Think of your heart, think of your face
If you want to hold it in your chest, you can't let it go."
Zuo Shuqin's Peking Opera singing voice amazed a group of people in the bar, and it was the authentic, old Yanjing flavor that seemed to tell the story of a poignant woman who longed to return.
In fact, it is Qin Fangge, who is the protagonist, but he still calmly pulls the erhu.
Even a person like Xu Jing, who thinks she is a straw bag, can hear the charm, and the lyrics sung by Zuo Shuqin seem to be tailor-made for her, although she herself tries her best to resist such feelings. But after meeting Zuo Shuqin and a group of them, they didn't like each other, and their competitive thoughts suddenly couldn't help but gush out.
Qin Fangge's singing voice sounded after her, different from his usual high and clear high notes, his voice was low and desolate now, like an old man pouring out the vicissitudes of the past.
"Onenightin Yanjing, I left many love ......"
Hearing this, whether it was Xue Min or Xi Wanqing, their hearts jumped, and they felt that this was indeed the case. Qin Fangge, an amorous seed, left too much love in one night in Yanjing.
As for Xu Jing and He Ruyun, they are even more convinced that this is the night he wrote.
"Whether you love it or not, it's the dust of history!"
This lyric, which should have been the finishing touch of the whole song, is also his favorite, but in other versions of the singing, he just picked it up and put it down lightly, making people unable to complain.
When Qin Fangge was singing, he even did a lot of work in arranging, and when he sang, he also took out a lot of skills. There is a strong sense of history, "whether you love it or not", it will eventually turn into the dust of history, and the lucky ones can leave a name, and the vast majority of people will end up in oblivion, the same as the dust that can be seen everywhere.
And in his singing, there is also the chic and calm in the face of all these irresistible laws of nature. I feel that at this time, I will say again, "Life must be happy, don't make the gold bottle empty to the moon" is more appropriate.
The other girls' musical instruments followed, especially Pan Lina's drum kit, the sound seemed to knock into people's hearts, and in this short period of time, a ** movement was formed. They have a smile on their faces, playing tickets has such benefits, you can come without following the rules and routines, and just have fun yourself.
The corner of his eye swept the expressions of the audience, and he felt that they were quite satisfied, at least no one protested!
"Onenightin Yanjing, I left a lot of love. His singing continued, and their accompaniment was the same, Huang Jing was playing the erhu, and he also glanced at him, this guy really loves to show mercy everywhere.
"Don't dare to ask for directions at midnight, I'm afraid I'll go to the depths of a hundred flowers!"
When he sang such lyrics, Xue Min automatically took on his role, whether it was "asking for directions at midnight" or "deep in a hundred flowers", it seemed to be referring to them. Of course, his current scene can be regarded as a little green among the flowers, leaving a lot of affection.
Zuo Shuqin's Peking Opera singing voice sounded again, and Qin Fangge sang a reverie song with her, using the same singing tone.
"People say that in the depths of the hundred flowers, there lives an old lover, sewing embroidered shoes. ”
The old lover in the depths of the flowers, Xi Wanqing felt a little powerless to complain, could he be more obvious, but not many people would know how to sew embroidered shoes now.
He Ruyun immediately made up this is the way of writing art, old lovers, people who are engaged in literary and artistic creation often do this, especially Qin Fangge, who is known as a musical genius, it's strange if there is no one!
"The old man with a serene face is still waiting for the return of the expedition......"
These two sentences also made Xi Wanqing feel nostalgic, just like what she was going to enter the wine before, "You don't see Gao Tang Mingjing's sad white hair, and the morning is like green silk turning into snow at dusk", the red face is easy to age, and the youth is easy to pass away. Life is short, and it won't be long before they become gray-haired old men. It also confirms the previous sentence, "Whether you love it or not, it is the dust of history." ”
And when it is sung in such a Peking Opera singing voice, it has a special sense of beauty and makes a deeper impression.
"Onenightin Yanjing, don't drink too much!"
"Walking outside the Di'an Gate, no one does not fail to live with true feelings. ”
There is no need for Xu Jing to overinterpret them, drinking or something, they have already drunk a lot today, and they drank more last time. Wine is a good thing, and he laughed at these exhortations. As for Di'anmen or something, I haven't seen it for the time being, so I'll wait for the follow-up interpretation.
"Onenightin Yanjing, I left a lot of love. ”
In Xu Jing's opinion, Qin Fangge is still quite self-aware, of course, his skin is thick enough, otherwise, how can he sing so smoothly about being merciful everywhere, and he will come again and again. Although she knew that it was a kind of art, she just couldn't help but think so.
"The man who sings the wine is the wolf clan of the north. ”
Zuo Shuqin's Peking Opera accent joined him again, "People say that the wolf clan in the north will stand outside the city gate in the cold wind, wearing rusty iron clothes. Call the gates open, with tears in his eyes. ”
"Uh......h I've been waiting for a thousand years, why haven't the gates been opened? "Qin Fangge seems to have incarnated as a wolf clan in the north, which can easily remind Xue Min and the others of his incarnation as a wolf and breaking through their city gates.
"Uh......h I've been waiting for a thousand years, why don't my beloved return? Zuo Shuqin's singing voice is not heartbreaking, but it is full of charm, just like the inner call of the old lover in the depths of the hundred flowers, when will he come back.
Perhaps what he was reading was, "Huangsha wears gold armor in a hundred battles, and Loulan will never be returned if it is not broken!"
With the blessing of national musical instruments, this meaning is also deepened, and different people will have different ideas after listening to it.
Like Xue Min and Xu Jing, what they thought of was naturally something related to Qin Fangge, that lingering romantic night.
And Zuo Mengfeng and Chen Yumo, what they can think of is naturally what they are showing now, and they will definitely not over-interpret it like He Ruyun and them.
Zuo Shuqin sang with him, "Onenightin Yanjing, I left a lot of love." I didn't dare to ask for directions at midnight, for fear of touching my sad soul. ”
"Onenightin Yanjing, I left a lot of love. I didn't dare to ask for directions at midnight, for fear of going to Di'anmen. ”
"People say that inside Di'anmen, there is an old woman who is still stupid and waiting. Her singing is getting better and better, not only because of the sisters' strength, but also because the cooperation with Qin Fangge is particularly pleasant, and for him, Zuo Shuqin is also as relieved as she is to her sisters.
The old man with a serene face was still waiting for the return of the expedition. ”
Then, the voices of the two were intertwined, and it was really difficult for people who were not clear to distinguish what the structure was inside. Qin Fangge prefers the sentence "Whether you love it or not, it is the dust of history", and he also took it out and put it in the back, chanting it repeatedly, and he felt that he would never feel bored.
These techniques of pop music, in classical music, are basically leftovers. Of course, in classical music, you can't be so frantically watered, let alone static. At the very least, it should be made into variations, and if the variations are done well, such as the "Goldberg Variations", which has been changed more than 20 times in a row, and the various variations in it have their own rules, they can really become masterpieces, and then they are really called playing flowers.
And pop music, even if it is such a song now, the audience listens to a particularly long song, to the back, Chen Tianhong and Wang Zizi can play freely, sometimes the pipa voice grabs the position of the main voice, sometimes Ruan acts as the vanguard, Ye Xiuling's suona also came to join in the fun, and it was quite exciting. With the skills and attainments of girls who have been immersed in music for more than ten years, it is really not difficult to play such uncomplicated music.
And Xu Jing and the others could only watch Wang Zizi and a group of girls fluttering on the stage, smiling proudly. But they also have to admit that Wang Zizi and their group of girls are indeed different from themselves, with their youth and beauty, they don't need to do anything to scratch their heads and pose, and they don't have such awareness, just use their best profession to conquer the audience. No stage image is very important, in private, in fact, only in front of Qin Fangge, they will be more open, in front of outsiders, they are still pure and beautiful student images.
After the song ended, the applause under the stage suddenly thundered.
It is not only for the wonderful performance of these young and beautiful girls, but also for Zuo Shuqin, who has contributed a lot and sings very well, Qin Fangge also accepted these applause and cheers with a smile.
In the whole song, what Xu Jing remembers the most is of course that he "left a lot of love", and his affection was everywhere that night, or rather, countless nights. At the very least, he and Xi Wanqing spend a lot of time together, and it's basically at night. And at first glance, he is a more amorous person, or in other words, he is engaged in art, especially in music creation, which can also be understood as a professional need. Without rich and abundant emotions and a complex and vast inner world, it is impossible to create wonderful musical works.
Xi Wanqing was thinking about the old lover in the depths of the flowers, and the one that made her feel deafening, "Whether you love it or not, it is the dust of history." Where to go in the future, she was once very confused, she could only take one step at a time, but now, the more she feels, the more she can't see the direction. She simply didn't think about it, and the girlfriends around her who didn't guard against it also had their own thoughts, presumably, they could also taste a lot of things from this Yanjing night.
Xue Min actually wanted to ask Qin Fangge if this was his inspiration after that night, if not, there were indeed too many coincidences in it.
He Ruyun had already decided about this, and felt that Qin Fangge was a little embarrassed to say it. If you want to cover it up with other stories, people who make music are like this, and she has seen a lot. Qin Fangge himself is what is sung in the song, "The man who sings the wine is the wolf clan in the north." "When he turned into a wolf, his combat power was simply *** explosive. He Ruyun was even wondering what a beautiful picture would be if one day he tore off his usual disguise in front of the girls and revealed his wolf nature. She felt that there should be such a day, Qin Fangge's charm was really not small, even they could easily sink into it, let alone this group of pure little lambs!
In addition to a few of them who have ghosts in their hearts, professional musicians such as Zuo Mengfeng and Chen Yumo are even more lamented that Qin Fangge can make pop music beautiful, combined with the peerless quintessence of Peking Opera singing, plus his suppressed vicissitudes of life. Tell about the outside of this Di'an Gate, in the depths of the hundred flowers, in the old alley, the old lover, the embroidered shoes, the returnees who went on the expedition, the northern wolf clan, and the rusty iron clothes...... All of this, when combined, also makes this song a reality, and among them, the sentence "Whether you love it or not, it is the dust of history" makes this story that seems to travel through thousands of years of time and space, summarized and sublimated.
Sun Chaohui, who is known as the king of the mainland music scene, is even more overjoyed, and sure enough, Qin Fangge's shot is different. He also calculated in his heart that it was very likely to win this song, because Qin Fangge would not sing this song himself except on such occasions. This is also a song with male and female voices, not to mention that it is very distinctive, and it should be able to occupy a place in the current music market. And Zuo Shuqin's performance really made Sun Chaohui feel amazing.
Sun Chaohui also knows that their folk orchestra makes such songs out of the nature of playing tickets, but it is precisely this mentality that makes such wonderful musical works. They mainly play classical music, and they don't care about such songs, they just think of them as entertainment, but they can't do it themselves. He was even thinking that this song had a female chorus, and he could invite Chen Yushan to come, so that he would have a greater certainty. Qin Fangge doesn't mix here, but Chen Yushan is definitely going to make her debut, and everyone helps each other, which is good for each other.
