Chapter 1071: Big Names

readx(); But whether it was Wang Shuxiang or Tong Minghao and Wen Jun, they didn't stop there, and their eyes looked even further. Tong Minghao said bluntly, "I think the emergence of Qin Fangge is the key to breaking the monopoly of classical music in the West. Whether it is creation or performance, none of the composers, performers, and singers in the world can be compared with Qin Fangge. But it is really difficult for everyone to accept this reality, especially those arrogant foreigners. Poor self-esteem, not only do we have, but they are all about the same. ”

Wang Shuxiang nodded in agreement, and also told some stories about their philharmonic orchestra when they went to the Americas and toured Europe, "Their sense of superiority comes from the bones, Europe looks down on the Americas, thinking that their history and culture are too short, and they know that they can't talk about music and art if they use money to smash people." It's just that now, if people go to higher places, and if the European orchestras can't keep up with the funds, they can't keep up with the very good musicians and conductors. Our Chinese symphony orchestra, they don't even look at it, Asia is slightly better than Japan, but it is also slightly higher than us. In this society, after all, it still depends on strength. ”

Wen Jun's experience is a better illustration of this phenomenon, he was known as a violin prodigy since he was a child, participated in various domestic and foreign competitions and won numerous awards, and went abroad as a teenager. It's a no-brainer, but it's not easy to become a violinist soloist, and in addition to having the talent to work hard, networking opportunities are also very important. And as far as he knows, none of the performers before they became famous could be practiced by Jiao Erlang if he didn't practice well.

Qin Fangge is a special case, how long has he been learning the violin? Wen Jun, Long Xueyao, and others, who practice violin skills, have accumulated far more than 10,000 hours of practice time when they were his age. The reason for mentioning 10,000 hours is that some people have come to a conclusion through research and analysis, which is the famous "10,000-hour genius theory".

"The picture that emerges from these studies is that 10,000 hours of practice are indispensable in any field to reach a level of mastery, or to become a world-class expert. Study again and again, composers, basketball players, fictional writers, ice skaters, concert pianists, Go players, crime masters, whatever you're engaged in, this number appears again and again. ”

However, these 10,000 hours are just the basics, but for many people, especially children, it is almost an impossible task, and you must have parents who encourage and support you. It's not just boring exercises, you have to really love it, be willing to study hard, and keep making progress one after another.

And Qin Fangge has invested more than 10,000 hours in piano and vocal practice since he was a child, however, he didn't get any "time-traveler package" at that time, and he didn't have any special confidence in whether he could be admitted to the Huaxia Conservatory of Music, so he picked up the cheap.

The importance of talent is self-evident, and after his gorgeous transformation, he used this inhuman body to quickly master the playing skills of various musical instruments, and in a short period of time, he reached the level of a performer. Not to mention the piano, violin, erhu pipa or something, he is now doing better than the girls around him who have been practicing hard for more than ten years.

Qian Feifei was not surprised at all, "Europe and America have always mocked each other, and it is also the most normal thing for the declining aristocracy and the emerging nouveau riche to hack each other. In the final analysis, the key is to look at ourselves, if there is no real master of music and art, we can only fight the market. This is closely related to economic development, and now there are more and more children learning piano in our country, which is the biggest advantage. ”

This is a somewhat unstoppable trend, but fortunately, everyone is chatting casually, and the current environment and situation, people in the industry who are engaged in serious music should be clear. But Qin Fangge is considered to be cross-border, Long Xueyao was born superior and concentrates on practicing the piano, and her mind is relatively simple, these two are not very old, Qian Feifei and they can be regarded as helping to popularize science, so that they can have a deeper understanding of the current situation of the world.

Ordering and serving food does not affect everyone's communication, and Qin Fangge is not polite, he should eat when he orders.

After some emotion, he said that he was exchanging feelings, but he would still mention the purpose of tonight's meeting, the matter of Qin Fangge's symphony concert. Wang Shuxiang also brought up the old story, and tirelessly talked about the rehearsal plan and arrangement of their Philharmonic Orchestra, and the rehearsal time of more than 20 hours exceeded 20 times the length of the symphony. dudu1();

This shows their sincerity, and it can be seen that they are also bound to win it.

In view of the particularly high requirements for wind music in this symphony, Wang Shuxiang and Tong Minghao also said that many of the wind music members in their philharmonic orchestra are hired externally with high salaries, and sometimes they have to admit the gap. The situation of strings is much better, and the violin group is the best example, all of them are Chinese. Moreover, there are two small handlers here, and their strength is quite strong.

Qin Fangge has no opinion on this, and he will not say that he has to force the Philharmonic Orchestra to rehearse for a longer time, but the rehearsal will have to pay the musicians a rehearsal fee!

This symphony concert will definitely not be about this symphony, Wang Shuxiang asked him what arrangements he had.

Qin Fangge said, "My idea is a piano concerto and violin concerto, and I also invited three other guests to join the audience and play relatively short pieces. It's just that in this way, the time may be relatively long, and it is initially expected to be about three hours, and I don't know if Wang refers to your orchestra and the audience can accept it. ”

Qian Feifei was the first to respond, she smiled and said, "You only have one concert in the past six months, if you don't have enough time, I'm sorry for the audience! Of course, if you are willing to split this concert into two, we will definitely support it!"

Everyone is happy, if it is really split into two, the National Center for the Performing Arts can collect tickets twice, and the income will be doubled, so it's no wonder if you are unhappy to die. But Qin Fangge is a person who is afraid of trouble, and it feels like there will be a lot more things to do if he has one more concert. He is still quite kind, and his concert tickets were the most expensive.

Wang Shuxiang, Tong Minghao, and Wen Jun also said that their Philharmonic Orchestra is absolutely fine, of course, they are more concerned, "Have you completed your piano concerto and violin concerto?"

Qin Fangge replied, "It's coming soon, it should be possible this month! If it is really arranged like this, the task of the orchestra is quite heavy." There may also be a few minutes of violin concerto. ”

Wang Shuxiang smiled and said, "We're afraid that we will have nothing to do, okay! Also, you really don't conduct your First Symphony?"

Qin Fangge shook his head, "Senior Brother Wang is good for commanding! I still want to be lazy, and I haven't learned to conduct." ”dudu2();

"With your level of composition, you still need to deliberately learn to conduct? I'm serious, if you don't conduct, then I'm not welcome!" Wang Shuxiang finally confirmed that Qin Fangge really didn't have the idea of being a conductor.

Tong Minghao and Wen Jun were also worried that Wang Shuxiang would be too tired to conduct like this, and Qin Fangge's concert was relatively long, almost equivalent to two performances by others. But Wang Shuxiang said that there is no problem at all, you must know that there are many guest conductors of the Philharmonic Orchestra, except for Wang Shuxiang, in their music season, the conductors are also in turn, and the conductor will be really tired. Of course, Wang Shuxiang also has the experience of conducting other symphony orchestras. This is almost the norm in symphony orchestras, and it also allows conductors to have more opportunities to play.

As for whether the audience can accept the three-hour concert, Qian Feifei said that she can rest assured, "Your opera is not also three hours! Except for those who don't like music, I think the vast majority of the audience wants to enjoy more new musical works." In other words, should you consider a few additional performances for your concert? The concert hall can accommodate fewer audiences, and it can't meet the needs of the audience at all!"

Qin Fangge said that he would see it when the time came, but Qian Feifei said that she had to prepare in advance, and she also asked Tong Minghao about the arrangement of their Philharmonic Orchestra, which must be communicated in several aspects.

Tong Minghao replied, "Our music season ended on June 24, and arrangements were made last year, and the tickets were sold out about the same, so there was no way to change it. If you want to hold a concert, it is best to leave a few days for the orchestra to rehearse intensively, and it is no problem to perform a few performances in a row. ”

Looking for Qian Feifei to come is to see the arrangement of the concert hall of the Grand Theater. The Philharmonic Orchestra's performances in Yenching are actually not very many at the National Center for the Performing Arts, and other places such as Yenching Concert Hall, Zhongshan Park Concert Hall and so on. The hardware environment and seating are not as good as the conditions of the National Center for the Performing Arts. This is also quite a helpless thing, and it also has to take into account the box office appeal of the Philharmonic Orchestra, and the cost of several other concert halls is much less.

Similar to the Philharmonic Orchestra's concert season, the NCPA Concert Hall will basically make arrangements one year in advance. Like Qin Fangge, who wants to hold a concert temporarily, he can only find a time when there is no performance, and it is impossible to grab the time booked by others.

Fortunately, the situation of the concert hall is easier to arrange, unlike the opera hall, the opera hall is mainly a stage, scenery, art, etc., which is particularly time-consuming and occupies the venue. But often opera performances will be performed for several days in a row, which also involves the cost of opera. The cost of an opera is much, much higher than that of a symphony concert!

If tickets for the opera performance don't sell well, the organizers will get hurt even more.

Qian Feifei's representative of the National Center for the Performing Arts, of course, hopes that Qin Fangge can hold more concerts, his incomparable popularity and box office appeal, the more performances, the better, twice a month is not too much. But this guy is good, and this concert was only scheduled from January to June.

Qian Feifei didn't expect to be able to impress Qin Fangge at once, if she wanted to persuade so well, it wouldn't be him Qin Fangge. Of course, it's still okay to knock on the side or subtlely. dudu3();

She also asked clearly, Qin Fangge went to Europe to be a director and make movies after the final exam in early July, and there was not much room for choice. As mentioned earlier, concert halls are not as troublesome as opera halls, and other music performances can be cleaned up the next day for other concerts.

After several parties negotiated, the time was temporarily set for June 28, giving the Philharmonic Orchestra four extra days to rehearse, of course, before that, Wang Shuxiang and they must organize the orchestra to carry out the preliminary rehearsal work, and the last few days are the final sprint. Everyone knows the significance of this concert to Qin Fangge, and no one dares to take it lightly.

Wang Shuxiang and the others are also counting on more cooperation with Qin Fangge in the future, and they also hope to have the qualifications to perform his symphony in the future. If their performance in this concert is not as good as Qin Fangge's intentions, then there will basically be no drama! In this regard, Qin Fangge has enough qualifications to play a big name.

In fact, the relationship between the performer and the symphony orchestra is the same, whoever is stronger, more famous, and more appealing, who is qualified to play a big name and occupy a dominant position. In concerts, there are many cases where the pianist or violinist is suppressed by the orchestra, and the audience will not blame the symphony orchestra too much, after all, strength is everything!

For more specific contract matters, such as the distribution of box office revenue, how much remuneration should be paid to Qin Fangge and the symphony orchestra, Qin Fangge will not participate in it, and will hand it over to his Daqin Entertainment Company to operate.

However, such a concert, whether it is the National Center for the Performing Arts or the Philharmonic Orchestra, is willing to hold it, because Qin Fang is singing, and the box office is guaranteed, at least it will not lose money. Of course, the interests also need to be balanced, and the professionals of Qin Fangge's company will definitely not let him suffer. Although there is not much money to take, this is related to the dominance and face issues, and they all need to be cautious.

Among them, Qin Fangge can be said to be the most active.

Even if the National Center for the Performing Arts occupies a geographical advantage, Qin Fangge has people and friends, and the Philharmonic Orchestra is the most weak. This is also the reason why Wang Shuxiang and they are so active in showing sincerity, if the box office is guaranteed, why don't they want every performance in Yanjing to be held at the National Center for the Performing Arts!

The concert hall of the Grand Theater alone has seven or eight hundred more seats than several other concert halls, and the tickets are much more expensive. That's it, the Philharmonic Orchestra's performances often can't sell out of tickets, and the tickets sent to organs and units are not expected to be seen.

And Qin Fangge's concert has the most seats and the most expensive tickets, and the demand is still in short supply.

That's the gap!

Qian Feifei's emphasis on a concert that simply cannot meet the market demand is also the truest fact.

They can't put all the tickets on the official website for sale, and a big name like Qin Fangge must get some free tickets, and giving them away is very face-saving. There are also unit group tickets that often cooperate with the National Centre for the Performing Arts, not to mention the leaders of the organs, which is a key factor related to whether the International Centre for the Performing Arts can get sponsorship. In addition, although it is sold to the outside world, it still needs to be kept, and there are not many tickets that are not listed on the official website, everyone knows that Qin is singing, and those classical music masters also want tickets, no one is easy to offend, and Qian Feifei has a lot of things to worry about.
