Chapter 17 Top Graduates of the Command Department
The background song of this advertisement prepared by the Grandmaster for Durex is the classic "1492 Conquest of Heaven" from the previous life, so the Grandmaster is naturally reluctant to use an amateur or private symphony orchestra to perform this piece. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
In this world, because of the difference in time and space, the famous electronic symphony "1492 Conquest of Heaven" did not appear, but it is undeniable that this piece of music that once conquered the entire world in the previous life, if it is brought to this world, there is a 99.9999 percent chance that it will still be able to continue to conquer this world of time and space.
That's why the Grandmaster planned to find a professional-level symphony orchestra to play this piece.
However, this piece is not an authentic classical symphony after all, the electronic part of it accounts for a large proportion, and the real symphonic instruments are only piano, violin, timpani and other instruments, so the orchestra that the soldier is now in is enough to take on the responsibility of playing this piece.
It's just that if you want to invite this orchestra to play this piece, the cost is also expensive, and it is estimated that 50,000 yuan is also a guaranteed number.
After all, even though it's just a piece and it takes only two or three minutes to start, it's a truly new piece that the orchestra has to spend a lot of time practicing in order to play it flawlessly. The last time the orchestra went to the Western Capital to perform, they played all the pieces they often played, and they didn't need to practice for a long time. That's why the Grandmaster came up with such a price.
If 50,000 Huayuan is just to record such a song, it will definitely not be cost-effective. You must know that for the filming of these two advertisements, Brother Qi only gave a total of 50,000 Chinese yuan, and if it was all spent on the recording of this track, it would be a waste.
Coupled with the current situation of the symphony orchestra that he had just heard from the soldier, this made the grandmaster suddenly have a bold idea.
Symphony orchestras are actually very popular in the Empire, of course, this popularity refers to those orchestras with a repertoire and the other is an orchestra that is constantly innovating. After all, in this world, there are many classic symphonies, and every orchestra must do it if they want to keep the orchestra alive and constantly create new repertoire. If you can't do that, then well, the Jinmen Symphony Orchestra is a rut in the road.
Since most of the current symphony orchestras are in such a difficult state, what if they were to bring over those classic symphonies from their previous lives?
What would happen if Beethoven's Symphony No. 3, Symphony No. 5, Symphony No. 6, Symphony No. 7 in A major, and Symphony No. 9 (Ode to Joy) were brought into the world, Tchaikovsky's Symphony of Pathos was brought into the world, and Berlioz's Symphony of Fantasy was brought into the world?
What happens if Strauss Sr.'s Radetzky March is brought into the world, if Bizet's Carmen Overture (Matador's March) is brought into the world, if Karl Techck's March of Old Friends is brought into the world, if Rossini's March of Wilhelm Die is brought into the world, if Mozart's Turkish March is brought into the world?
Imagine what it would be like if all the classic pieces that were played at the WYN concert every year in the past life were brought into the world.
In this world, many classic songs, symphonies, marches, and concertos from previous lives have never appeared, and if these classic repertoire are brought to this world, what will happen again?
This world has one thing in common with the previous world, that is, musicians who play classical music, especially symphonies, concertos, marches, etc., will be crowned with the honorable title of "master" or even "grandmaster", and those who sing pop songs and play rock music can get the title of "superstar".
It's not on the same level at all between the two!
Although the grandmaster of the previous life was very busy all day long, sometimes in order to keep the first-hand news, it was common for him not to sleep for three or two days. But once there is no task, the grandmaster's biggest hobby is to cook a hearty meal for himself, and then turn on the stereo and listen to music to treat his stomach. Therefore, over the years, almost all the classic repertoire of the previous life has been memorized by the grandmaster.
After this thought came to him, the Grandmaster pondered for a moment, and then asked, "Soldier, if I use your orchestra to record this background song, how much do you think it will cost?"
The soldier scratched his head and said with some hesitation: "I have the experience of performing in the Western Capital last time, if you give this background song to our orchestra for recording, I think it will cost at least 50,000 yuan." After all, this is a new song, and we need to spend a lot of time practicing. Therefore, this price should be the lowest floor. Of course, if you really want to choose us, the specific situation will have to be decided by the head of the regiment. ”
The Grandmaster said in his heart: "This price is really about the same as I guessed. But I really don't want to take the 50,000 yuan. ”
Thinking of this, the Grandmaster asked again, "If, soldier, um, I mean, if I can create a few good enough new pieces for your orchestra, including this background music that I just wrote, I keep the copyright of these songs, but I can grant your orchestra the exclusive right to play them, then can your orchestra give me some discounts on the price?"
"New repertoire, master, did you create it yourself?" asked Zhang Bing in surprise.
The Grandmaster nodded and said, "That's right, I created it myself. Don't forget, I'm a top student at the Royal Academy of Music Conducting Department, and composition is one of my major disciplines. ”
The conducting department of the Royal Academy of Music can be said to be the most dazzling professional department in the entire Royal Academy of Music, even if the average person can reach the score line in the examination, he may not be able to be admitted to the conducting department, the admission conditions of the conducting department are extremely strict, not only must you have a high enough test score, but you must also have enough musical talent, and you must also master at least one instrument that reaches the professional level of performance. If one of these three conditions does not meet the requirements, then even if you are the top student in the college entrance examination, you will definitely not be able to enter the command system.
But once you enter the conducting department of the Royal Academy of Music, then it means that you have to be at least one level above your peers. Because what you learn in the command department is definitely not comparable to other departments.
In the conducting department, in the eyes of ordinary people, it is like reading the general score of the book of heaven, or even composing the general score, which is the most basic major, and in this most bullish department, students will also learn a lot of professional knowledge that other departments will also learn, such as professional composition, etc., which are all professional knowledge that students in the conducting department must learn.
Therefore, it is not an exaggeration for the Grandmaster to say this.
