Chapter 998: Qin, Flute, Zheng
At this time, the host Martin found that all the female audience in the audience looked at Su Huai's eyes with tenderness like water, and they all seemed to be melting, and they were also very uncomfortable, so he smiled deliberately:
Before the game, Mr. Su Huai once said that Chinese traditional music is not seven tones but five tones, and also said that there will be one in the competition, presumably this song, so everyone, let's enjoy this traditional Chinese five-tone song together. ”
Martin's words sounded like they had been arranged a long time ago to the audience, but in fact, there was no one in the script, and at this time, many people remembered the "traditional Chinese five tones" mentioned by Su Huai before
The Sumen people in the seats were secretly scolding in their hearts, this guy is trying to deliberately influence the vote, this popularity competition, and there is no regulation on what sound to use, as long as it sounds good, only use five tones, how to compose music?
Pavarotti, who had just sat down to wipe his sweat, was also panting, the nine consecutive high-pitched C he sang just now was very draining, if he hadn't been forced to do this today, he wouldn't have worked so hard at all.
At this time, he was looking at Su Huai on the stage, and he was also secretly surprised, thinking in his heart that it was a flute in his hand...... I don't know what kind of timbre it will be?
At this time, the voice of Director Kai of the director of the studio came from the headset.
"Teacher Pa, wait and listen carefully, Su Huai said that he wants to use a Chinese five-tone song, as long as you find out that this song is not five-tone, wait a minute, and you will criticize him more often. ”
Pavarotti listened, but whispered into the microphone that switched to the studio channel:
"Are you kidding? Is it time to care about the five tones, the seven tones!? Don't talk about the others now, let the music prove everything, do you think that if I don't criticize him, I will lose? You let us do this, not only insulting Su Huai, but also insulting me. ”
Director Kai in the studio was stunned in front of the microphone, he heard the meaning of this sentence, the king of the world's high-pitched C voice, not only said this because of confidence, but also had already put Su Huaizhong as a musically respectable peer.
At this time, advertisements were being broadcast on TV, and on the stage, the symphony orchestra that accompanied Pavarotti was slowly withdrawing, leaving only Su Huai and the three of them.
The European and American audiences were stunned, and only then did they react that this song was not performed with accompaniment tape, but all of them live?
And the point is that they don't have a band at all, only three Su Huai and three instruments, which is extremely thin compared to the dozens of people in the symphony orchestra.
Although no one recognizes these musical instruments, whether it is Asia, Europe and the United States, everyone can see and guess that this should be a traditional Chinese musical instrument.
Many European and American music lovers in the audience couldn't help laughing and whispered:
"They want to play unplugged with three instruments? ”
"Ha, it seems that it is no wonder that this Chinese only has five tones, and there are only so many traditional musical instruments. ”
"When Mr. Pa sang "My Sun", the orchestra had dozens of musical instruments, and the Chinese people only had three ancient musical instruments, how could this compare?"
"Two pianos, one flute? yes, there are strings, and there is a woodwind group~"
"Haha, Hudson, don't be kidding, our Europa's classical string group, there are four kinds of 'bowed strings' alone: violin, viola, cello, and double bass.
Plus the harp, organ, piano, six-stringed instrument, mantolin, banjo and other 'plucked strings'... What a magnificent sound~~"
At this time, the Chinese audience was also a little anxious, and they were all secretly thinking in their hearts, this Teacher Su was too stubborn this time, in order to highlight the Chinese tradition, he didn't use a single Western instrument, I am afraid that just in terms of accompaniment, he will lose a few streets than Pavarotti's symphony orchestra...
Just when I was thinking like this, I heard the academician of Taiwan Zhou Zhou, close his eyes and pluck the guqin, only to hear a low and distant sound of the qin, loose and distant, not at all like a musical instrument, but the sound of heaven and earth.
Although the European and American audiences were surprised, they couldn't help laughing, and some people muttered quietly:
"What kind of strings are these, the sound is so weird, it doesn't sound pleasant to listen to at all. ”
"yes, the voice is so low that it doesn't seem to have any rhythm at all. ”
"It's really right to say that Chinese people don't have music cells, this tune is not on the beat~"
The sound of this Chinese guqin, when I first heard it, was extremely weird, and even the Chinese audience couldn't help but be a little shaken, and they were all anxious for Su Huai.
But Pavarotti was concentrating at this time, and as soon as the prelude sounded, his eyes kept on Academician Zhou's left hand that was pressing the strings.
Elvis Presley next to him was a little surprised: "I actually pressed the strings with my fingers and chanted out the aftertaste...... Peculiar, really peculiar. ”
Pavarotti couldn't help but show surprise on his face, thinking that this kind of Chinese instrument was really unheard of, but it had a unique charm, but the sound was too diffuse and not suitable for song accompaniment......
Just thinking like this, I suddenly listened to a crisp, like the sound of insects chirping, but in an instant, the timbre was abrupt, like clouds and blue falls, and the cold moon hung on the peak, which was completely different from the sound of the guqin just now.
This is...... Pavarotti looked at Su Huai playing the bamboo flute in surprise, and thought that this tune was really weird.
Su Huai can make melodious songs like "Hot Girl" and "My Motherland", and his musical accomplishment is absolutely first-class, but how can his bamboo flute not have the pleasantness of half a flute, but it seems extremely cold?
Pavarotti was puzzled, and then the sparse zither note cut in again, and the crisp sound of raindrops falling into stone joined the melody.
Three strange and different timbres overlapped each other, and suddenly they suddenly opened up, like the cold moon in the mountains, like flowing water and insects, and they reflected each other.
The melody of the ensemble, the sudden sound is wild, the piano is like rain, and the flute is like flying sky, giving people a feeling of chaotic time and stormy weather.
Pavarotti and Elvis Presley glanced at each other, and they both saw each other's eyes in surprise, and at this moment they had already heard the mystery of these three Chinese musical instruments.
This ensemble is not about creating beautiful music.
Instead, he is using musical instruments to simulate the mountains and rivers, wind, rain, thunder and lightning, and the sound and rhyme of all things in the world!
The general audience has not yet heard it, but those who are accomplished in music are just as surprised as Pavarotti and Elvis Presley at the moment.
Western classical music is to express the emotions in people's hearts with music, and to describe love sounds graceful and beautiful, and when it turns to religion, it becomes sacred and solemn, and it is the voice of people's hearts.
However, Chinese music is different, and the Chinese musical instruments convey the sound of heaven and earth, just like the legend of the "Boyazi period".
In the sound of the piano heard by Zhong Ziqi, it is not the love of children, but the mountains and rivers!
This is the most essential difference between the two!
