Chapter 36 The horse-head qin is melodious
At this time, Ye Gui and the others heard a hearty laugh coming from the door, and they also got up and walked over.
The man's first impression of Ye Gui was simple, he was dressed in cloth, his dark face was even a little shiny, some strong limbs and a round face.
If you look at the face, Li Qiming should be a very honest person, but with Li Qiming's next moves, Ye Gui's impression of him was completely broken.
I saw that after Li Qiming finished speaking, he looked into the house, as if he had found something, and immediately crossed Jiang Mountain and walked into the house.
Just as Ye Gui and the others were looking at Li Qiming in confusion, they saw him grab the teapot on the table and hold it high, and then raise his head and open his mouth to continue.
Knock knock knock
Li Qiming drank happily in one gulp, wiped his mouth, and then turned around and said with a simple smile: "Along the way, my family has been tired." ”
Ye Gui was shocked by Li Qiming's Jincheng dialect, although he had heard the legend of Li Qiming before, Jiang Linfeng also said that he was a local just now.
But an artist who played the matouqin in Ye Gui's heart was so brilliant that he actually spoke a local dialect, and the contrast was too great for Ye Gui to imagine.
In fact, the contrast in Ye Gui's heart is caused by the misunderstanding of the folk about the horse head qin, everyone knows that the horse head qin is a Mongolian folk instrument, so they think that the people who play this instrument are all men wearing gorgeous Mongolian robes on the grassland.
But in fact, the matouqin has long left a deep impression in the hearts of musicians everywhere because of its melodious timbre and unique performance method. In addition to that prairie, it is endemic in the northeastern part of the country and in and around Long Province.
Although Li Qiming is a native of Longxian Province, he worshiped under the name of a well-known local horse-head qin folk artist in his early years, and won the true legend, and after several years of hard practice, Li Qiming's horse-head qin skills have reached a higher level, and now it can be said that it is better than the blue, and has become a recognized master in the local circle.
It's just that Li Qiming usually doesn't care about fame and fortune, except for a limited number of performances, the rest of the time is just wandering around and playing, and only communicates with a limited number of people in the circle.
Among these limited people, there happened to be Jiang Linfeng.
No matter how good an indifferent musician is, he can't resist the idea of passing on his own music records, as the number one local recording engineer, Jiang Linfeng has cooperated with Li Qiming before, and both parties are secretly impressed by each other's professional attainments, so the two also maintained a good relationship after Li Qiming's recording.
After Ye Gui sang the song "Silent Sky" just now, Jiang Linfeng felt that the melody of this song had a distant and quiet taste, and it would be great if the accompaniment was accompanied by the same melodious horse-head qin.
As expected, after Ye Gui finished singing on the guitar, he said that the highlight of the accompaniment to this song was the horse-head qin.
So Jiang Linfeng thought of it at that time, Li Qiming, who happened to come back from traveling a few days ago and was resting at home, and then immediately contacted the master of the horse-head qin and asked him to come and help with the recording.
Ye Gui looked at this man who seemed to be honest, but in fact had a free and easy feeling in his bones, and showed a smile: "Teacher Li, thank you for your hard work, I called you over this time, because I want you to help with the accompaniment of a horse-head qin." ”
Li Qiming knew the reason for calling him over on the phone, listened to Ye Gui's words, waved his hand and said happily, everything is easy to say, and then asked Jiang Linfeng if he had recorded a melody now.
Because several people have been busy since the morning, and they have only barely finished recording three samples just now, so the sample of "Silent Sky" has not yet been recorded.
But it doesn't matter, Ye Gui directly picked up a guitar in the corner, sang the song again, and then used the guitar to play the melody that needed to be accompanied by a horse-head violin.
Li Qiming heard the dialect that Ye Gui had just begun to sing, his eyes lit up at first, and then as the song slowly unfolded, he closed his eyes again, nodded slightly and shook gently with the melody.
After Ye Gui finished singing, Li Qiming first stretched out a thumbs up and said to Ye Gui: "Good boy, this song is written with feeling." ”
Then he turned his head to Jiang Linfeng and smiled: "Wow, where did you find this kid." ”
Originally, Li Qiming heard Jiang Linfeng say on the phone that he wanted him to come over to help a student record, but Li Qiming was still a little reluctant in his heart, but he had a good relationship with Jiang Linfeng, so he had to come.
As a result, now that Li Qiming heard Ye Gui's performance, he was full of praise, and directly praised Ye Gui embarrassed.
Li Qiming now has a very high status in the local circle, and Ye Gui knows that after more than ten years, Li Qiming will become a legendary figure, and his local reputation is not comparable to that of the half-immortal who is regarded as a half-immortal by the domestic literary and artistic youth.
In fact, Ye Gui knew that the reason why this song moved Li Qiming at once had a lot to do with the artistic conception of the song itself, which is very compatible with the instrument of the horse-head qin.
The original work of this song was written on the grassland, lake and seaside, and the accompaniment of the original horse-head qin was one of the best horse-head qin masters in later generations. So it is not surprising that this song can attract Li Qiming now.
So Ye Gui said modestly to Li Qiming, there are still many deficiencies, and I hope that Mr. Li will give you some advice.
Li Qiming was not polite, and first played it according to the solo note that Ye Gui had just played with the guitar. I saw that his hand holding the bow stretched out, and a moving voice echoed in everyone's ears.
Ye Gui heard the melodious sound of the horse-head qin, and the secret rumors were indeed not false, and it is not an exaggeration to say that Li Qiming's level at this time can be said to be the top horse-head qin master in China.
A quiet and beautiful melody with the straight voice of the horse-head qin made everyone present nod their heads, Li Qiming's song is simply too expressive, and the song shows people's pursuit of tranquility on the vast grassland and beside the clear lake.
After listening to Li Qiming finish playing this melody, Ye Gui felt very satisfied. He knew that the song was in order.
Who knew that just when a few people were still immersed in the beautiful sound of the horse-head qin, Li Qiming, who finished playing this piano, said: "Actually, the melody of the horse-head qin you wrote is not perfect. ”
Ye Gui looked at Li Qiming in surprise, and then asked, "Teacher Li, how do you say this?" ”
Li Qiming looked at the surprised Ye Gui and showed a smile, did not speak, just picked up the bow again and re-played a melody.
At this time, the melody played by Li Qiming seems to be very close to the one just now, but if you listen carefully, you can feel that it is a little different.
He changed the original few spans to more continuous ones, and drew the longbow more slowly and longer.
The melody at this time sounds more of a long-term artistic conception.
Ye Gui suddenly realized after listening to it, Li Qiming deserved to have studied the horse head qin for countless years, at this time, the melody he played and the melody that Ye Gui said before only changed a few notes, but it was just these changes that made the whole piece more flavorful.
Looking at Li Qiming's honest face, thinking of all kinds of rumors about this indifferent folk artist in later generations, Ye Gui was very touched in his heart.
The hearts of later generations have become very impetuous, and many popular songs only rely on some brain-filling lyrics, but old artists like Li Qiming, who make music with peace of mind, disappeared in that era.
Many ancestral arts were slowly lost in this process, which has to be said to be a regret of Chinese culture.
After listening to Li Qiming's re-playing of this section of the horse-head qin, Ye Gui said respectfully: "Teacher Li, you are an old musician, you have nothing to say about this melody, so I will record it according to you in a while." ”
After setting the accompaniment of the matouqin, several people decided to finish the song in one go, so they were busy again.
With the experience of the day, and Li Qiming is an old artist, he is very familiar with this set, so he didn't delay much effort in the middle, and the last song "Silent Sky" was almost recorded in one go.
But even if it was so hurried, the night was still late.
At this time, except for Jiang Linfeng, who was still working hard in the recording studio and continuing to do the later stage of the song, the rest of the people simply settled in Lejia Recording Studio.
Ye Gui was lying on the sofa, looking at the stars outside the window, thinking about all this today, and slowly fell asleep.
