Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Female Tyrannosaurus in the Commanding Family
Ye Qin is a wonderful flower in the classical music industry.
Her name is known to almost everyone in the circle, but it has a mixed reputation.
She is highly regarded for her rigorous conducting style, technical skills, enthusiasm and charisma.
Others criticized her as a hot-tempered dictator, a female tyrannosaurus in her family, who respected music but not the musicians themselves.
And all this is not important, the important thing is that she is a woman! She is the only female conductor in China who has broken out in the international music scene!
In her previous life, she had never seen her live performances, only her CDs, because she had disappeared from the music scene by then.
Now, is there a chance to work with her? Even, learn from her?
It's a little exciting to think about!
"Ahh I was so excited just now that I forgot to introduce myself! The woman patted her head in annoyance and said, "My name is Ji Xiaorou, and I am the principal violin of the orchestra." ”
Ji Xiaorou smiled and stretched out her hand to Si Nuan.
"My name is Swarm, please take care of me."
The two shook hands.
"My name is Yuan Hao, I am Xiaorou's boyfriend, and I play the trumpet." The man leaned over and winked at Snuan.
In the early morning of the next day, Si Nuan went to the orchestra's rehearsal venue under the leadership of Ji Xiaorou and Yuan Hao.
"Our orchestra is self-organized, it is free, and everyone has a job, so except for Saturdays and Sundays, the rehearsal time is mostly in the evening. But everyone is nice and friendly, and you'll love it. ……”
Ji Xiaorou introduced as she walked.
When I came to the rehearsal hall, the members of the group had basically arrived.
The orchestra is small, less than 40 people, both men and women, young and old.
Si Nuan looked around, there were retired old cadres, middle-aged housewives, fashionable white-collar workers and young college students.
Ji Xiaorou introduced Snuan to everyone, and the members of the group welcomed them one after another.
After the welcome, everyone began to gossip.
"Sister Xiaorou, is our conductor this time really Ye Qin?" A female college student couldn't help but ask.
"That's still fake, the head of the regiment has already gone to pick up people, and he will be over soon!" Ji Xiaorou replied with an oath.
"However, isn't Ye Qin mainly active in Europe?" A retired veteran cadre asked.
"I heard that she had a temper that she had a falling out with the symphony orchestra over there, and all the members of the family 'unveiled the pole uprising' and demanded a change of conductor!" An elite white-collar worker is mysterious.
"Huh? I've heard for a long time that she's strict, is it really that serious? ”
"It's like, if even a professional band can't stand it, then we ......"
"Squeak!"
Before the words could be spoken, the door of the rehearsal hall had been pushed open.
A tall, thin middle-aged woman appeared at the door, with neat short haircuts, wearing a well-cut suit, and stepping on high heels.
That unsmiling face is none other than Ye Qin.
Ye Qin swept over all the members of the group one by one with his eyes, not angry and arrogant.
The members of the group unconsciously sat up straight, and the retired veteran cadres couldn't help but straighten their ties.
This is the aura of a conductor! Si Nuan looked envious.
The head of the regiment stood up from behind Ye Qin and said to everyone: "This is our new commander, Ms. Ye Qin, everyone is welcome!" ”
The members of the group applauded excitedly.
Ye Qin raised his hand to signal, and the applause immediately stopped.
"I believe that everyone already knows me, so I don't bother to introduce myself anymore." Ye Qin put down his bag, walked onto the podium, looked at the excited members on his face, and said, "The performance is only half a month later, and our time is very precious!" Now, let's play it first, and let me hear what you're capable of. ”
Ji Xiaorou stood up, took everyone's conscious tuning, and the performance began.
Everyone is eager to put on their highest level and perform well in front of the new conductor.
Snuan is no exception.
It's just that, listening to it, Si Nuan is a little worried-because of this level, it's really amateurish.
Ye Qin on the command platform, his brows became more and more wrinkled, and when he heard the sound of Si Nuan's piano, he eased slightly, and then looked sharply at every member of the group who was not satisfied with him, and finally sighed.
Everyone was playing to the end, but Ye Qin suddenly raised his hand and signaled everyone to stop.
The members of the group didn't know why, but Si Nuan felt uneasy in his heart.
"I can't take your orchestra. Let's be smart. ”
Ye Qin picked up the bag and walked away.
"Wait, Commander Ye!" The head of the regiment hurriedly put down the oboe and stopped Ye Qin.
"I'll admit that we were a little bit weak, but we all worked hard! Can you ......"
"A musician who is destined to be hopeless, no matter how hard he tries, it is useless!" Ye Qin was unmoved, and still walked towards the door.
"At least, tell us why!" Ji Xiaorou stood up and said unconvinced, "In the face of a group of people who love music and work hard for it, without saying a word, they decide that there is no cure, doesn't Commander Ye think it's rude to do this?" ”
"Xiao Rou! Commander Ye, Xiao Rou didn't mean that......" The head of the regiment hurriedly stopped Ji Xiaorou and carefully apologized to Ye Qin.
Ye Qin stopped, glanced back at Ji Xiaorou, and suddenly smiled.
"Do you want to know why?"
"Yes, of course." The members of the group spoke in unison.
Ye Qin walked back, walked up to a double bass, and said in a cold tone: "This lady, are you a carpenter?" Are you playing a double bass, or are you sawing wood? ”
The middle-aged woman lowered her head in shame.
"As a musician, how can you be so irresponsible about your music? Listen, ma'am, you're playing like this, your double bass is crying! ”
After Ye Qin's poisonous tongue was finished, he no longer paid attention to the middle-aged woman with red eyes, and turned to the trombone to speak:
"Uncle, you are self-taught! It's not even a third-rate college, and I've never participated in a symphony orchestra, right? ”
Uncle Trombone looked ashamed, and just wanted to express his determination, Ye Qin had already turned the target of attack into the regiment leader:
"Old man, how good it is to have time to form this orchestra and take care of the children at home!"
After smacking several musicians in a row, Ye Qin walked out of the rehearsal hall with an expression of "Do you want me to continue, you guys who humiliate yourself".
Si Nuan looked at Ye Qin's back, then looked at the members of the group who lowered their heads in frustration, and sighed helplessly.
Sometimes, music is cruel. I like it so much, but I don't have the talent. In other words, he has no talent, but he likes it so much.
That's why such an orchestra was born. An admirable, lovable orchestra that is destined to never reach the pinnacle of music.
"However, I still want to practice."
A thin voice came.
Si Nuan stood up suddenly, and said loudly: "I have read this score many times, let's follow me to rehearse first, let's think of a way to see if we can invite Commander Ye back." ”
