Chapter 1070: Fame and Fortune
readx(); Long Xueyao explained, "I still have the most basic music appreciation ability, and I am not as talented as you, so I can only strive for greater progress by spending more time practicing." Besides, I'm going to have to ask you to help me......"
Qin Fangge asked her, "How long do you practice the violin every day now, and how do you arrange it?"
"In addition to classes, I spent more than eight hours a day, half of the time practicing scales, two hours of caprice, and the rest of the time practicing other pieces. Long Xueyao replied, "If you go to a concert, you have to spend more time playing repertoire." β
"Xue Yao has really worked hard, and she insists on practicing for so long every day, which is a good example for students who learn instrumental music. Qin Fangge boasted, he felt quite ashamed after listening to it, he knew his current situation, he was engaged in doing things every day, and he really didn't spend much on practicing musical instruments, it was nothing more than relying on his welfare as a traverser.
"In our school, there are many people who spend more time practicing every day than I do, and the performance department has to spend more than six hours a day. When I went to the high school, my classmates had no less time to practice. Long Xueyao was a little unimpressed, she was very demanding of herself, but she also had to take into account the efficiency of the practice.
Of course, Qin Fangge knows it and has experienced it himself, so he can better understand the difficulty. Wu Hongqin, who is particularly self-disciplined, is a very good example, Xiao Yuran is slightly inferior to her, but the time spent in the piano room every day is still more than Chen Tianhong and Huang Jing's folk music department.
This is also a very common phenomenon, in the conservatory, the piano performance department and the violin department spend the most time practicing. They also have a lot of competitors, and if they want to do well on the international stage, they have to do better than the geniuses of the world.
Chen Tianhong and the others learn folk music like this, the pressure is not so great, and the competitions are concentrated in China, and there is no international pressure.
The vocal opera department and the wind music department are okay, even a demon-level figure like Qin Fangge has not practiced for eight hours, and his voice will be broken, or he will be tired to death if he can't keep up with the trombone after playing the trumpet for eight hours.
Xiao Yuran's situation is better, after practicing, he can relax with 201 and Zuo Shuqin. Long Xueyao is completely alone, which is actually the norm of the performance department of the Conservatory of Music. Long Xueyao lives at home, and practices more at home when she is not in class, and has particularly high requirements for self-discipline.
Qin Fangge chatted with Long Xueyao on the phone all the way, talking about her piano practice and life matters, drove to Zuiruyi's restaurant to park the car, and met her, she just stayed in her car.
Long Xueyao didn't deliberately dress up as an evening dress, a casual style of spring dress, white top, beige vest and black trousers, the key is her delicate face and slender figure, and she looks good in a typical hanger. Her style is also quite compatible with Qin Fangge. He also generally dresses casually, except for formal occasions, such as concerts.
"I haven't seen each other for a while, but Xue Yao has become a lot more beautiful again!" Qin Fangge greeted her with a smile.
Long Xueyao had a sweet smile on her face, "You're not bad! You're still so handsome!"
The two of them didn't feel numb when they praised each other, they walked side by side, led by Qin Fangge, she just followed and went to the restaurant together. dudu1();
"Do you really invite me to be a guest?" Long Xueyao was still not at ease, and asked him.
"Did I lie to you?" Qin Fangge smiled and asked her, "Have you signed up for any competitions this year?"
"There will be in the second half of the year!" Long Xueyao said, "I don't know if I want to participate yet!"
"It's good to give it a try. Qin Fangge expressed his support.
"Then are you going?" asked Long Xueyao.
"I'm going to cheer you on and see how good you are on stage. Qin Fangge replied, he hasn't held much concerts now, how can he go to the competition, and beating children is not an interesting thing.
"Don't lie to me, if I want to compete, will you really go and cheer me on?" Long Xueyao was quite happy to hear it, international competitions are generally held every three or four years, and it is not easy to participate. First of all, you have to pass the preliminary examination, which must be recommended by someone in the classical music world, such as a professor of a well-known conservatory or the principal conductor of a grand symphony orchestra. The screening of the entries is to send videos and recordings in the past, and there are many registrations for large-scale competitions, so you must first choose which ones can enter the preliminary examination.
Qin Fangge was thick-skinned and said with a smile, "It's definitely okay to be free!"
"You're so busy, who knows what's free?" Long Xueyao frowned and snorted, she knew what Qin Fangge was so busy, no, it was quite difficult to meet him and communicate with the violin.
"When the time comes, if you want to participate in the competition or something, the key depends on your strength, and I am absolutely assured of this. Qin Fangge said that he really couldn't make specific guarantees, and a large-scale violin competition could last for more than a month.
He has little experience in participating in international competitions, but Long Xueyao has participated in a lot since he was a child, and now he is learning piano and violin, and if he does not participate in large-scale international professional competitions to prove himself, how can he step onto a bigger performance stage in the future.
If you don't say that classical music is also utilitarian, no one can avoid fame and fortune. Long Xueyao herself admits this, she is also performing on the stage, and she naturally hopes that the audience can appreciate her as much as possible. She also said that it was difficult for her to reach a realm like Qin Fangge, the key was that Qin Fangge's talent was too high. It is said that literati are inferior to each other, and those who study art are actually the same, and it is very normal for them to look down on each other.
But for Qin Fangge, whether it is Long Xueyao or Wu Hongqin and Xiao Yuran, there is no way to treat other music students of the same age like they do, let alone look down on him and despise him.
Especially what else Qin Fangge said, "I'm still worried that you will delay your career development because you want to practice the caprice I wrote for you, then Professor Wen and your parents should settle accounts with me!" dudu2();
"How is it possible, during these days of retreat, I have made great progress. I know this, and Professor Wen knows it too. Long Xueyao replied, "This kind of practice has also greatly improved my skills, and I also believe that if I participate in the second half of the year, I will definitely achieve better results." If I can, I'd like to use your music to compete then. β
Qin Fangge said that it was not that simple, "Now everyone is still willing to listen to familiar music, whether it is the judges or the audience, this is actually understandable." It always takes time to test a new song, and I didn't even think about it myself. Especially abroad, I'm nothing!"
Long Xueyao wanted to blame them for having no eyes, Qin Fang sang and laughed, "You have also studied music history, the musical works of those great musicians and composers are everywhere that have been buried for hundreds of years." I'm not in a hurry, just take your time, it's very good to be recognized by everyone before I die!"
"You're too pessimistic!" Long Xueyao said dissatisfied, "I think we should still believe in the level of the audience who are improving day by day under the influence of so many excellent music." β
Qin Fangge didn't report much hope, and said unceremoniously, "I hope to tour the world in person, after all, I can still brush my face, but in this way, there will be no time to do other things, which is not what I want." Therefore, I will pin my hopes on Xue Yao, waiting for you to help me become famous all over the world. β
Long Xueyao still wants to be with him, it is also a young and frivolous naΓ―ve idea, when she thinks about this, she is quite excited and enthusiastic.
Soon after, the two met Wang Shuxiang, the conductor of the China Philharmonic Orchestra and also the artistic director. In addition, Tong Minghao, the leader of the Philharmonic Orchestra, and Wen Jun, the principal violinist, have arrived, as well as Qian Feifei, the director of the performance department of the National Centre for the Performing Arts, who just had dinner with him last night. They were already seated and waiting for Qin Fangge and the guests he brought, and when they saw Long Xueyao, they all looked at each other and smiled.
In all fairness, Long Xueyao is much more famous than Qin Fangge before she entered the Huaxia Conservatory of Music, she plays the violin very well, and is a talented beautiful girl who has won many awards in domestic and international violin competitions!
Qin Fangge has cooperated with Wang Shuxiang and Wen Jun, and he also has a relationship with Tong Minghao, and he has cooperated with Qian Feifei more times, and after saying hello, he said to them with a smile, "This violin talent shouldn't need my introduction!"
Wang Shuxiang smiled, "Qin Fangge, you should confess your relationship with Long Xueyao to all of us!"
Qian Feifei is also very familiar with her as a woman, "Long Xueyao held a concert at our National Center for the Performing Arts earlier than Qin Fangge!"
"I really can't compare with him!" This made Long Xueyao a little embarrassed, but she was quite good at dealing with such an occasion, and she looked like a down-and-out lady.
Wen Jun and Tong Minghao were also curious about the relationship between the two of them, Qin Fangge said, "When I was learning violin, it was Xue Yao who introduced me, and I wanted to call her Master, but she refused." β
Wen Jun laughed loudly, "It's not easy to be your master, it's not as good as Mr. Zhou's, but it's easy to lose your life." βdudu3();
"That's not it, Zi said, threesomes, there must be my teacher! Don't look at the symphony, but in the rehearsal and performance of the symphony, I am still a pure newcomer, and I have to ask Captain Tong, Wang Zhi, and Chief Wen for many things!" Qin Fangge responded with a smile.
Wang Shuxiang laughed at him for being too modest, and said, "How can you make us ordinary people feel embarrassed by this, as soon as this first symphony came out, it caused a sensation all over the world! Several of us have seen the score, and we all feel that this symphony is perfect, and this is why we have today's meeting." You're welcome, just order whatever you want!"
Qin Fangge laughed self-deprecatingly and said that he was a layman, especially when it came to eating, he was reluctant to let himself suffer.
Tong Minghao took it with a smile and said, "Living in this world, everyone is the same, as long as our music and art are good!"
They don't have to worry about being left out in the cold to Long Xueyao, there is also an experienced Qian Feifei to receive her! If the seating arrangement is made, Long Xueyao will naturally sit next to Qin Fangge, although it is not clear what the relationship between him and her is, but this arrangement is definitely right. Long Xueyao is next to Qian Feifei, and in the past, Wen Jun, who also played the violin, is also an alumnus of the Huaxia Conservatory of Music, and is considered Long Xueyao's senior brother, and it is easy to communicate.
In addition, the China Philharmonic Orchestra and Long Xueyao have also cooperated before, at the piano and violin competition held by CCTV, CCTV accounted for a large part of the original funding sources of the Philharmonic Orchestra, and they had to be pulled by CCTV to support the piano and violin competition held by them, and the recorded concert was also broadcast on the CCTV music channel.
In the past few years, it is the uncle who pays the money, and such a situation can be seen everywhere in the professionalization process of China's symphony orchestras. It's also quite hard to say, Qin Fangge is Wang Shuxiang, who is more familiar with him, he took the initiative to mention this matter, and thanked the head of the troupe, Tong Minghao, for his hard work for the Philharmonic Orchestra along the way.
Qin Fangge is not good at talking about the gap between the strength of their orchestra and the top foreign orchestras, in such an environment, it is already quite a commendable thing to maintain the current situation.
Of course, there is still something to be fought for.
The same is true of the relationship between the performer and the symphony orchestra, whoever is bigger will listen to whomever is better. If Qin Fangge is a nobody, it is naturally the symphony orchestra or even the National Center for the Performing Arts that has the final say.
But Qin Fangge is not, he is Zhou Xiuying's proud apprentice, and his fame in China is booming, not only has a very box office appeal in the classical music industry, but also attracts many people who usually don't like to listen to classical music to buy tickets to listen to his operas and concerts at a high price, which is quite remarkable.
Wang Shuxiang is also quite clear about them, and he is even a little angry, "Now the foreign classical music market is actually gradually shrinking, in addition to economic factors, the cultivation of audiences is not good enough, and young people are less and less interested in it." Our Chinese market is also becoming more and more optimistic. Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many musicians and orchestras performing in China, because in the past, they looked down on our country. β
Wen Jun also said that there is such a thing, "I used to study violin at foreign conservatories, and even when I participated in performances, I deeply felt this. Of course, we have to admit that there is still a gap between our teaching environment and quality, but this gap is gradually decreasing. β
Tong Minghao said, "I think it's mainly because our country has never produced too amazing and brilliant musicians, who are well-known overseas and recognized by everyone, and now it's okay! Qin Fangge was born, which not only filled this gap, but also let those foreigners finally know that our country is not without the soil for producing geniuses!"
Qin Fangge hurriedly said that he was blushing, such a compliment really made him feel ashamed. (To be continued.)
