Chapter 23 Reasons to Study Music
The total length of "To Alice" is only three minutes, and at the end of the song, Liang Dong has a feeling of unfinished. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
At first, he didn't feel it, but after he started playing, he suddenly found that his piano playing skills were more perfect, and when he thought about the melody in his mind, he subconsciously played it with both hands without the slightest pause.
Although "To Alice" is indeed relatively simple, he has played it too many times, and can still play it smoothly without sheet music, which can only show one thing. His own piano playing skills are improving, and they are improving to a great extent.
In his previous life, he worked very little on the piano himself, and he preferred the guitar to the piano. In fact, it is normal, the guitar is simple, easy to carry, and can be played no matter what the occasion.
The piano is not good, the piano is much more expensive than the guitar in the first place, and the performance occasions are also limited. You can't go to a night show and end up playing piano music, right? Even if he wanted to, the nightclub owner wouldn't want to.
He is not a big name, just an eighteenth-tier star, whether it is a night club or a red and white event, inviting him over is just for a lively time. The more lively, the better, so the guitar became one of his necessary tools.
Wherever he goes, he always carries a guitar with him. As for the piano, it can only be regarded as familiar and can be played, but the technique is not exquisite. In terms of calculation, he can barely be regarded as a piano level 5, and after getting familiar with the score for a period of time, he can play it. As for playing out of the score? It's basically impossible.
Not only in the previous life, but also in the previous life. After several years of study, the predecessor's attainments in piano are stronger than those in the previous life, but they are also extremely limited, and it is difficult to perform without the score.
And now, he was able to play "To Alice" perfectly, and he found that he could play some of the most difficult techniques. This can only mean one thing, after crossing over, the golden finger he obtained is definitely not as simple as the memory in his mind.
Of course, now is not the opportunity to verify, he turned to his student and asked.
"This is a piano piece that I have recently composed, and before I introduce it to you, I want to hear what you think of it! Liu Feng, you say it first!"
Liang Dong said to Liu Feng, who was pondering.
Liu Feng was pondering, or rather shocked by the performance just now. It's not that Liang Dong showed high piano skills, but that light score.
As a half-professional, he was very familiar with piano music, and in his memory, there was no piano music he had just heard. This can prove one thing, the piano piece just now does belong to Liang Dong's original.
It was precisely by getting this conclusion that Liu Feng was even more shocked. Creation is not a simple random play, but has a certain rhythm and professional requirements. It's hard enough to compose, but it's even more rare that this piece is simple, with a clear style and excellent melody, but it contains all the basic piano techniques.
From the tonal shifts, the use of both hands, the chord shifts, the use of power, etc., all show the high technical and artistic value of this song.
Hearing Liang Dong's question, he subconsciously replied: "This is a great piano piece!"
Liang Dong raised his eyebrows slightly: "What else?"
"To Alice" is a must-learn piano piece for all piano lovers, perhaps it cannot be said to be a classic, but it is enough to be called great. This point did not need to be repeated by Liu Feng, he wanted to hear other answers.
After a slight silence for a while, Liu Feng replied: "If I heard correctly, this should be a piano piece written for a girl, and the whole movement reflects the creator's praise for a certain girl." From first acquaintance to conversation to love to nostalgia, it is all fully expressed, this should be a song describing love!"
Liang Dong did not directly answer whether it was right or wrong, but leaned on the podium and asked, "Is there anything else?"
Although he did not explain whether it was right or wrong, Liang Dong's attitude shocked Liu Feng's spirits, and he used his professional knowledge to talk eloquently: "This piece is written in a rondo, and the structure is in the form of ABACA. The overlapping section appears three times before and after, which is the basic theme of the whole work, with a total of 22 measures, and the internal structure is characterized by a reproduction of the single trilogy, with the presentation section having eight bars and consisting of two parallel phrases of four bars. Phrase A uses the key of A minor, which is a melody that goes up first and then descends, and the dynamics begin to change from weak to medium-strong, reflecting obvious contrasting colors. and end on a complete termination. The next B is shifted from A minor to C major, with a short structure of 6 measures, which is a melodic progression that descends first and then ascends. The genitive E in a minor is used as a preparation for the reproduction section. The rendition is back in A minor, and it is largely the same as it is. ”
Looking at Liu Feng, who was talking eloquently, many girls in the class showed a hint of love in their eyes. In the entire academy, Liu Feng is a man of the hour. Not to mention handsome, the family background is also very good, in the year after entering the college, he has participated in many college competitions, and has participated in international competitions on behalf of the college, although he did not win the award in the end, but was recognized by a group of teachers.
Predictably, his future is absolutely bright. Such an excellent male god is naturally easy to get a different ** love.
However, Liu Feng didn't care about those adoring eyes, and the whole person was completely caught in the score just now.
"Interlude 1 returns to F major, which is stated in the subordinate direction, and consists of an eight-bar structure-like structure with connecting transitions of eight bars (one bar overlapped). This part of the emotion is more clear, the left hand changes to the Alberti bass-like accompaniment form, the rhythm of the right hand melody breaks the equalization pattern in the A part, and becomes richer, and the dotted rhythm and the use of leaning notes and echoes make the music more gorgeous and smooth.
After the repeated repetition of Part A, the piece enters Interlude 2 in a continuous manner.
In Insert 2, the left hand has been making a single continuum on the main note A in a homophonic repetition accompaniment. After 5 measures, the left-hand accompaniment changes from a single note to a double note, thickening the texture of the music, and attaching an ascending chromatic progression line in 1-measure increments below the sustained main note, reaching the ending 46th chord in A minor at measure 3, and descending 2 degrees on the final beat, forming a genus 7th chord in A minor longitudinally, and forming a complete, typical classical terminating pattern of "K46-V7-I" with the subsequent major 3rd chord in A minor. The right hand part is written in a chorus-like texture, with a tonal shift to D and minor, and a parallel relationship of 8 bars and one sentence. After that, the second section enters in parallel, but with some changes in key and musical texture, to reproduce the dynamics. The sustain reverts to its monotonic form, only this time it takes its own point of origin to form a consistent ascending chromatic progression, passing through the leading 7th chord in A minor, and then stopping at the first inflection of the main 3rd chord in A minor. ”
After a pause, Liu Feng said: "This is what I heard, but there is one thing I don't quite understand, teacher, you used chord breakdown in the last paragraph, and the rhythm is very compensatory, do you have other intentions?"
"Bang Bang Bang ......"
Liang Dong applauded lightly: "Liu Feng is worthy of being a figure in the academy, and he is indeed very sensitive to music. As for your last question, I mainly think that the piano music in front of me is too bland, in order to increase the artistic effect. I ended up with a dense chord breakdown and a quick breakdown pattern!"
Liu Feng couldn't help but nodded: "I see!" It seems that he has understood Liang Dong's intentions.
Liang Dong just smiled lightly at this: "Just now you asked me what the purpose of learning music is, and now I have given you the answer." Studying music does not make you elegant, nor does it make you despise vulgarity, but it just allows you to analyze and appreciate a piece of music with professional knowledge when you hear it, instead of simply exclaiming: It's so good!"
Speaking of which, the bell rang just in time for the end of class. Liang Dong put the textbooks together and finally said, "I am glad that the students enjoyed the teacher's last class, and if you are interested, you can participate in my other classes." However, I am not a lecturer for compulsory courses, but a teacher for elective courses. Goodbye, students!"
