No. 9 Middle School covers an area of not small, there are more than 230 acres, Qin Fangge walked along the tree-lined but undulating roads on both sides, and came to the riverside in front of the six-story old-fashioned buildings, his family lived on the first floor, which was specially chosen by Qin Huakai and Ning Xiupei, in order to Qin Fangge to practice singing and not affect the rest of others.

Open the door and enter, the original layout of two rooms and one living room, part of the hall was changed into a study, and the study was also installed with soundproofing materials, and there was a domestic upright piano inside, Qin Fangge first put the two musical instruments together in the study. It's good that he still wants to go home, whether it's playing erhu in the study or going to the riverside, no one can't listen to it and come to him for trouble.

The inside of his own bedroom is very simple, just a desk, wardrobe and a bed, which are very tidy, it is estimated that Ning Xiupei has cleaned it a lot, otherwise it will definitely not be like now.

After putting all the clothes and the like that he brought home, Qin Fangge sent a text message to Ning Xiupei to inform him of his arrival home, and then went to take a comfortable hot bath.

Looking back at her phone, Xiao Yuran texted back that she was almost at the station, and Qin Fangge asked her not to leave anything behind and pay attention to safety.

Huang Jing replied to him with several different smiles on behalf of their sisters, and finally forgot to tell him to remember to practice erhu more, this master should be responsible!

Ning Xiupei was probably in class and didn't reply to him. Qin Fangge is fine, and there is nothing to see at home, so he went to the study to practice, and now he doesn't practice for a day, and his hands feel itchy. He still gnawed Bach's 12 equal laws first, 48 songs, enough for him to play for a long time, and he could learn a lot from them. After practicing the piano for about an hour and a half, he was about to change to erhu to practice for a while when his mobile phone rang.

It was Ning Xiupei who called, asked him if he had cleaned up, knew that he was a big stomach, and asked him to eat something casually to cushion his stomach first. He also said that if he was fine, he would get dressed and go to the music classroom, and then the whole family would go out to eat when she was done.

Qin Fangge happily obeyed, of course he knew that as the most senior music teacher in Jiangcheng Jiu, Ning Xiupei was not as idle as others imagined, in addition to normal music classes, she also took the choir as a conductor in the school, and she was the backbone of the school's organization of cultural and entertainment activities, and she had to be responsible for reviewing the program as a judge to do organizational work and the like. In the evening, Ning Xiupei also has to take students to teach music to earn money for him to learn music, it is very hard and busy, the last time he asked for leave to go to Yanjing to wipe his buttocks, it is estimated that he has left a lot of work.

He estimated that it was a choir matter, and every year the choir of No. 9 Middle School would perform, participate in various literary and artistic activities and competitions, etc., to earn some face for Jiangcheng No. 9 Middle School, a key middle school at the municipal level.

Qin Fangge himself used to go to the choir, but he had to go to Rongcheng to learn music with the professors of the Southwest Conservatory of Music, and he couldn't participate in many performances, so he took the initiative to quit the choir. But when he was in school, if there were any literary and artistic activities, Ning Xiupei would still catch ducks on the shelves and let him perform on stage, saying that it was to increase his stage experience.

Qin Fangge didn't want to wear that school uniform that looked silly, so he changed into casual clothes and went out, and when he passed by the playground, he also told Qin Huakai where he was going.

Qin Huakai nodded to indicate that he knew, he probably wouldn't be busy until it was dark, and Qin Huakai was quite dignified outside the family, and several tired dogs had to continue training.

At this time, school was already out of school in the afternoon, but everyone went to the cafeteria to grab food, and Qin Fangge didn't meet a few acquaintances on the way, but his return rate was still not low. After all, the former "school grass" came, and he disappeared for half a year and reappeared on campus, which is still very eye-catching, and some people even took pictures of him with their mobile phones, which made him a little crying and laughing.

Qin Fang sang outside the music classroom, and heard that the choir inside had already begun training, and the slightly childish voices came and went, singing a song praising the great motherland. He listened quietly outside, feeling that there were still a lot of problems with their chorus, and when the sound inside stopped for a while, he reached out and knocked on the door, and Ning Xiupei's familiar voice came from inside, calling him in.

He pushed the door in, and at a glance saw the junior high school choir standing very elegantly, there were really a lot of members, there were more than forty of them, many of them were still faces he was not familiar with, the choir had to recruit new people every year, and this batch of new members needless to say was the first day of last semester when they entered the choir.

One of the most eye-catching is the pair of twin sisters standing in the center of the first row, even if they are wearing ugly school uniforms, they still can't hide their beautiful and natural faces, youthful and beautiful. The two sisters wear cute double ponytails, but the color of the rubber bands is different, one red and one green. They also added a delicate and unique brooch to the chest of the blue and white school uniform.

What a pair of cute girls who love beauty!

Qin Fangge couldn't help but sigh with emotion! He hadn't seen them before, otherwise he would have had an impression.

But after only one glance, he didn't pay much attention to them, and just walked briskly past.

Ning Xiupei, who was the conductor, was also aware of the choir's problems and was correcting the pronunciation of one of the freshmen.

Qin Fangge greeted Chen Jianfen, who played the piano, she was another music teacher in Jiangcheng No. 9 Middle School, and served as a piano accompanist in the choir.

Chen Jianfen is in his thirties, and the smile on his face is very peaceful, "Qin Fangge has returned from his studies!

Qin Fangge smiled, "What did Teacher Ning tell you? Actually, I am quite confident, but I don't know what the professors of the Huaxia Conservatory of Music think, and I should know when the results come out next month." ”

Ning Xiupei couldn't listen to it, and couldn't help but look back at him twice, he didn't care.

Chen Jianfen smiled even brighter, "Hearing you say this, then you must have entered! I just said that Teacher Ning has been in such good spirits since he came back from Yanjing, and he is really proud to have such a son! Huaxia Conservatory of Music! Everyone who studies music wants to go in, but we didn't dare to apply for the exam at all, there are too many masters, and the competition is too fierce!"

"Actually, it's not as difficult as I imagined, it's true that the professors in it are of a very high level, and in the past six months in Yanjing, I have gained a lot of things, no matter what the result is, it is worth it." Qin Fangge smiled and bragged at all, he knew very well that when he insisted on applying for the Huaxia Conservatory of Music, including his mother Ning Xiupei, he was actually not optimistic about him, let alone others. If he hadn't crossed over, Qin Fangge would probably have only gone home in a gloomy way.

Qin Fangge didn't have much to worry about, and quickly forcibly changed the topic, "Teacher Chen, is the choir going to participate in the competition?"

Chen Jianfen simply explained to him, "Yes! This time it was the 'My Chinese Dream' organized by the Municipal Education Commission." School Song's choral arts event. First of all, each district and county must hold a choral art competition, and select outstanding choirs to participate in the municipal choir competition. Our school will definitely participate, the time is still relatively tight, if you can't get the top two in Gangnam District, it will be too embarrassing, and I feel quite stressed. ”

Qin Fangge nodded and said that he understood, such a competition is related to the glory of the school, Jiangcheng No. 9 Middle School is also the focus of the city, and it is also one of the best in Jiangnan District, if it is squeezed out by other schools, it will be shameless. What does each school do every year to recruit so many students with art and sports specialties is to strive for honor for the school.

Chen Jianfen said with annoyance, "In this choir competition, the primary school group, the junior high school group and the high school group are competing separately, and the high school group can be either a high school alone or mixed with the junior high school. We also had to train separately, and it was a hassle to just choose a piece of music, and it was easy to choose one piece of the assigned repertoire and one piece of your own track, and it was easy to crash with other schools. ”

Qin Fang said in his heart that this is an inevitable thing, there will definitely be choirs from different schools who choose the same song, and when the time comes, when they appear on stage, it is easy to tell which school's choir sings better.

But this is also a helpless thing, even if the self-selected repertoire is a brand new repertoire, it cannot avoid crashing on the designated repertoire, the key is to look at the overall strength level of the choir.

At this time, in addition to testing the basic skills of the choir members, what is more relied on is the comprehensive musical literacy of the choir organizers. Because in addition to showing the connotation of the song itself, there must be artistic expression and innovative forms of expression, which cannot be expected of choir members, and the organizers have a great responsibility. Of course, if the level is higher, you can also add or remove adaptations to make it more pleasing to the ear.

It is not an exaggeration to say that choral singing is an art.

When singing a chorus, it has a wide vocal range, rich timbre, great changes in dynamics, many sound levels, and strong expressiveness, so to speak, any period, any form of music, can be expressed through chorus, depending on the level of the organizers and choir members.

Qin Fangge asked them if they had chosen the repertoire, and Chen Jianfen said that she had discussed with Ning Xiupei, and the junior high school choir first chose the song "Mother of the Motherland", which they were most familiar with and could support the scene. The high school chose the best "Camellia Blossom", which is all in the designated repertoire, and it was used to participate in the choir competition a few years ago, but unfortunately it didn't get any good results.

The other two self-selected songs, Ning Xiupei waited for Qin Fangge to come back to give advice, and called him over, that's what it meant.

For his mother and his alma mater, Qin Fangge is of course duty-bound.

As far as the song "Mother of the Motherland" sung by the junior high school choir is concerned, in his opinion, there is still a lot of room for improvement.

I feel that Ning Xiupei and Chen Jianfen are still too conformist, and they don't dare to renovate too many tricks on this song, plus many choirs choose this song, and the low score is reasonable.

In addition, the junior high school has changed its members, and although it has been running in for half a year, it is still far from the high artistic performance level of the choir.
