Chapter Thirty-Nine: The Opera "The Mink"
The applause continued, and the atmosphere of the scene completely reached the first level.
"What I'm curious about is how Song Yan and Chu Mo'er will face each other after Zhuo Ting sings this song." Wang Xiao stepped onto the stage, and then half-sideways said to his partner, "Sister Mei, what do you think?" ”
"I also have the right to vote, right?" Zhu Mei held a mobile phone in his hand and asked with a blank eye.
The camera directly gave Zhu Mei a close-up of his hand, and the brand of the mobile phone was impressive, which was obviously a product placement.
"Of course there is, you're the same as the rest of the audience, you count one vote."
"I only have one vote?" Zhu Mei took out another mobile phone of the same brand from his pocket, "But I have two mobile phones." ”
"According to what you say, doesn't the owner of a mobile phone chain store have tens of thousands of tickets?" Wang Xiao glanced at Zhu Mei, and then said to the audience, "We must resolutely put an end to your blatant fraud, come, staff, please block Sister Mei's mobile phone number." ”
"Wow! Hello excessive! Zhu Mei stomped his feet, "Then what should I do if I want to vote for Zhuo Ting?" ”
"Please." Wang Xiao smiled evilly as he took out a third mobile phone of the same brand from his pocket.
The audience laughed, although this advertisement was blatantly done, the live effect was very good.
And this dialogue is actually hinting to the audience in front of the TV, although it is said that there is one vote per person, but in fact, there are as many mobile phones, as long as the numbers are different, there are as many votes, and you can also canvass for votes.
"I don't ask you!" Zhu Mei was very stiff, and then said to the judges, "Four judges, please, you scoring, in fact, it has a great canvassing effect." ”
"But Sister Mei, you are in a hurry to canvass for Zhuo Ting now, isn't it too early?" Wang Xiao put away his mobile phone and said lightly, "Song Yan and Chu Mo'er haven't sung yet, how do you know that the two of them are not as good as Zhuo Ting?" ”
"yes." Zhu Mei seems to wake up like a dream.
"And your behavior of directly affecting the judges' judgment and canvassing for the contestants, we must also resolutely put an end to it, come, security, please Sister Mei down." Wang Xiao said with a smile.
While talking, a man with five big and three thick people really came up, and without waiting for Zhu Mei to speak, he directly lifted Zhu Mei on his shoulder, and strode off the stage.
Ye Luo was stunned.
Wang Xiao stood proudly in place, and after a few seconds, he seemed to suddenly find something, and said in surprise: "Hey? Why is this security guard so face-to-face? It doesn't seem to be from our TV station, oops, it's not good! Sister Mei was carried away! Four judges, you continue to draw lots, I will go to the hero to save the beauty, go and go back! ”
After speaking, Wang Xiao also ran down in stride, leaving only the four ridiculous judges on the judges' seat.
The audience was already laughing.
The four judges glanced at each other, and then Lin Yang nodded, his palm was raised high, and it fell heavily, and on the big screen, Song Yan's name was displayed.
"Song Yan!" Wang Xiao announced loudly in a corner of the audience.
"We have invited Song Yan to the stage, and her final repertoire tonight is an excerpt from the classic opera "Mink", "Moment"." Zhu Mei's voice came.
"Opera?" Wang Nicole obviously didn't expect it.
"What, isn't it strange?" Ye Luo asked.
"Of course not, how can we in the vocal music department be unfamiliar with opera. "Mink" is one of the four classic dramas in Europe and the United States, which has been staged in Britain and the Americas for 20 consecutive years, and has toured our country in the first two years. Nicole Wang said.
"Yes, the last time I toured in China's Shangdu, this "moment", the singer was the queen of the opera, Eve, and I cried at the scene." Li Xiuyun also sighed, "It's really a classic." ”
"A classic is a classic." Ye Luo nodded and said, "But it should be taken into account that opera is a bel canto singing method, and if you copy it, it will inevitably be high and low, which is not good for popularity." I don't know how Song Yan handled this problem, or is it the same as "The Phantom"? ”
"This song is really high, it's basically the limit of the flowery soprano, if Song Yan uses popular singing, can she finish it?" Wang Nicole frowned and said.
"Listen to it." Ye Luo belongs to watching the excitement and is not afraid of big things.
While the three of them were talking, the lights on the stage were dim, of course, they were not all extinguished, but they were very dim, and Ye Luo and others in the audience could only see the shadows on the stage and the figures kept running.
After a while, the stage lights came on again, giving a golden high-gloss light group. On the stage, Song Yan had already appeared in full costume, wearing a sky-blue evening dress, white women's gloves, a sapphire necklace around her neck, a beautiful face, and a cold expression.
Behind Song Yan, there are many dancers, no less than twenty, all wearing makeup, which is the classic stage image of "Mink".
The opera "Mink" is famous, and the plot Ye Luo naturally knows, telling the story of a noble girl who has a group of mink as pets.
These minks are completely anthropomorphic when performing, and there are more than twenty of them in total, each with a story. Accompanied the girl through a lot of happy times.
However, the girl soon had a lover, the lover was handsome and chic, and a lot of love, and one day he inadvertently said to the girl, he saw a young lady of a certain family, wearing a mink coat, beautiful and unparalleled.
The girl's obsession with her lover has become enchanted, so she wants to kill the mink she raises, and also make a coat to wear on herself to please the lover.
She did it, but the lover left her because of her move.
And on the eve of the girl killing the mink, all kinds of contradictions in her heart were entangled together, and evolved into a heart-wrenching singing voice, which is "moment".
If you put aside the gap between bel canto and popular singing, only from the pitch, the high-pitch part of this song is higher than Sharon Quinn's "Qeen" and Deng Qi's "Phantom".
Eve, one of the four major queens of opera in Europe and the United States, sings completely with the technique of a flowery soprano. And in the current opera industry, she is the only one who can complete this song in its original tune.
The accompaniment of the live band sounded, Ye Luo noticed that on the right side of the stage, it was the area belonging to the accompaniment band, which had been a little empty before, but at this time, it was full, and a two-pipe symphony orchestra was seated, and dozens of violin strings and bows were pulled up and down at the same time, which was spectacular.
Not only is it visually spectacular, but it is also refreshing to hear.
"The studio was still too small, and I originally wanted to do a three-pipe orchestral accompaniment." Wang Nicole said, "But I couldn't let it go, so I had to settle for the next best thing, and got a two-pipe formation of more than 60 people, all of whom are the elite of the Shangdu Symphony Orchestra." More than 20 stage artists on the stage are also from the Shangdu Dance Troupe, and they have all participated in the tour of "Mink" in Shangdu. ”
Ye Luo nodded: "This is Song Yan's advantage." Unlike Zhuo Ting, Zhuo Ting's real trick is only soul music, so she has to put her hole cards at the end, and she can't fire all the power at first.
But there are too many weapons in Song Yan's arsenal, and if she takes out one casually, she will already give the organizer the feeling that she is about to win the championship, so in terms of logistics, the organizer will do its best to meet Song Yan's needs, you see this orchestra and stage lineup, as proof. ”
"However, the orchestra is too domineering to control." Li Xiuyun lowered his head and said, "If the singing voice is a little weaker, it will be taken away by the band." I have this problem, and I have been scolded by the professor several times......"
"Since Song Yan dares to use the orchestra, then she must be sure." Ye Luo breathed a sigh of relief, relaxed his whole body, and put on a posture of quiet appreciation.
On the stage, Song Yan finally opened her voice.
