"Ye Zi, there is one more thing you need to pay attention to. ”

Chen Xieyang then said: "When you play, don't pay too much attention to the volume of the guitar. When you started playing just now, the volume was just right, not light or heavy, and the control was very good. But after the orchestra followed up, your performance became a bit 'heavy'. ”

"I know it's because the guitar is so loud and you want it to come out of the orchestra."

"But you can't do that, it's going to ruin the overall volume balance. You should use the music itself as a reference, and it should be played when it should be sounded, and it should be lighter when it should be lighter. ”

"There will be amplification equipment on the stage of the official performance, so you don't have to worry about the volume of the guitar not enough."

Ye Zi nodded, he himself knew that he had made a big mistake at this point.

This, in fact, is also a manifestation of insufficient experience.

Pan Zhe sighed.

"Lao Chen, no wonder Ye Zi would do this, the volume of the classical guitar is a problem...... It's really ......" Pan Zhe shook his head: "The classical guitar is really a very good instrument, but it was dragged down by this volume problem." ”

"Who's to say it isn't." Chen Xieyang also shook his head: "Okay, let's talk about the rest of the things slowly, and play the whole piece first." Chen Xieyang finally summed it up.

"Ye Zi, we'll do it again in a while. I'm going to slow it down a little bit more when I'm playing, and you'll have to pay attention to my gestures and eye movements, and I'll give you a hint. When playing, you should listen to the orchestra as well as possible and cooperate with them as much as possible. ”

"I didn't have a lot of requirements for this rehearsal, and if the solo and orchestra concertos could be combined, it would be a success. For the rest, we'll pick it up little by little. ”

"Okay Mr. Chen, I see."

Chen Xieyang turned to Pan Zhe.

"Xiao Pan, Ye Zi's experience is a little lacking, you take the orchestra to follow him as much as possible. Also, it's a rehearsal now, and no amplification equipment is used. You have to reduce the overall volume by about a third, otherwise the sound of the guitar will not be visible at all. ”

"Ready to get started."

Pan Zhe nodded, then pulled Ye Zi and walked back, and Ye Zi hurriedly followed.

Smack.

Chen Xieyang clapped his hands again.

"It's quiet."

"The first rehearsal was good. There are still a lot of problems, though. First Movement...... When it comes to mentioning, you must pay attention to the malleability of the melody, I want the kind of effect that seems to be interrupted and not interrupted, and don't make it intermittent for me. Second Movement...... The French horn should be played a little more sticky and a little looser, and Lao Peng, the timpani will give me a little more simplicity. Don't drag the mud and water like you just did. Third Movement...... Speed is key, and that feeling of lightness is made with my heart. I know you can't do that, you're just lazy! When I was rehearsing one by one, I was grinding foreign workers, and I was waiting to be on stage to work hard, I didn't mistake you, right? ”

Chen Xieyang said some points with a grin, and there was a chuckle in the orchestra.

"Okay, you're all set, pay attention to what I just said."

His eyes swept over the entire orchestra, and Chen Xieyang raised his hands. With a flick of the baton, the second rehearsal officially began.

Half an hour later, Ye Zi ended the performance of the entire concerto with an extremely soft and ethereal overtone, and slowly opened his eyes.

"Half an hour off. Ye Zi, come here. Chen Xieyang's voice completely pulled Ye Zi out of the artistic conception of the music.

The rehearsal hall was bustling with activity.

Chen Xieyang pulled Ye Zi and walked out of the rehearsal hall.

"Lao Liu, I really have you, God!" Miao Junkai is always the most active one in the first voice, and as soon as he put down the violin in his hand, he immediately said to Lao Liu, who was separated by a position on the left.

Lao Liu picked up his teacup and took a sip of water. Only then did he smile and said: "What's wrong with this, when you reach my age, you can also see at a glance what kind of level these performers who have come to play solo." By the way, Xiao Miao, you haven't gone out for activities after you've rested? He said. Lao Liu took out a cigarette from his pocket and held it in his hand, stood up and prepared to go out to smoke.

"Lao Liu, are you overdoing it? Player? This kid can't talk about a virtuoso yet, right? "Miao Junkai just likes to raise the bar with people.

"Soon." Lao Liu didn't refute, said with a smile, took a cigarette and walked out the door. During rehearsals, the orchestra is allowed to go out for smoking only when the conductor officially announces a break. Otherwise, the members must stay in the rehearsal hall.

People can't do without rules, and the same is true for orchestras.

Miao Junkai watched Lao Liu walk out of the door, shook his head, and also stood up and walked out. He rarely smokes, but he doesn't want to stay in the rehearsal hall when he's resting, so it's good to go out for a walk.

"Ye Zi, this time the performance has made a lot of progress." Outside the rehearsal hall, Chen Xieyang lit a cigar and took a puff, and said with a smile.

Ye Zi stayed by Chen Xieyang's side and did not smoke. He knew that Chen Xieyang wanted to guide him, and he couldn't miss such an opportunity. Even if Chen Xieyang didn't come to him, he would take the initiative to find him, and now at a time like this, he desperately needs any kind of guidance that is beneficial to his performance.

"Thank you, Mr. Chen. I'd love to hear your opinion on what I've just played. ”

"Well, I just wanted to talk to you about you." Chen Xieyang said with a smile.

He likes Ye Zi's humble and knowledge-seeking attitude, knows his own shortcomings, and is willing to spend his efforts to correct them little by little, which is the correct attitude of young people towards learning. Although he will not be as high as Pan Zhe, he will not use his hot face to stick to other people's cold butts.

To promote the younger generations, it is also necessary to distinguish people and things with a clear attitude. What do the proud and crazy juniors do with them?

Chen Xieyang's time is not very empty.

"In this performance just now, you have already done the right thing in terms of cooperation with the band, so it is not a big problem to go on like this. All that remains is a matter of detail and experience, which is not something that can be solved in a day or two, take your time. Chen Xieyang's voice was very gentle, and his attitude was even kinder.

"Ye Zi, your comprehension is really very good, I really didn't think that in the second formal rehearsal, you would be able to basically cooperate with the orchestra."

"It's important to keep that up."

Chen Xieyang stretched out his left hand and patted Ye Zi's shoulder, the more he looked at Ye Zi now, the more he liked it in his heart. There is no conductor who doesn't like musicians with great comprehension.

Ye Zi let out a "hmm", not complacent, still waiting for Chen Xieyang to point out his problems.

Chen Xieyang thought for a while, and then continued: "I was a little hesitant in my heart just now, whether to tell you this, because it is a bit too early for you to say this now. But I'll tell you after thinking about it for a while. ”

Ye Zi listened intently.

"To be honest, as long as the proficiency of the orchestra is raised to the next level, and the cooperation between you and the orchestra is a little more tacit, you can perform on stage. But there is a problem with you, which is not a big problem for this performance, but if it is not solved well, it will bring a little trouble to your future. ”

"Ye Zi, who did you learn your classical guitar from?"

Chen Xieyang asked.

Ye Zi shook his head: "Teacher Chen, my classical guitar was taught by my grandfather at the beginning, and after my grandfather died, I practiced with the teaching books and tapes, practicing Carkashi, and also practicing other masters' things. Later, Mr. Sun helped me sort out the learning process, and now I am mainly learning the things of Master Segovia. ”

"Oh...... That's no wonder. Chen Xieyang thought thoughtfully: "It turns out that your guitar is basically self-taught, so your talent is really high!" But I see that your playing foundation is very solid, and you don't have the feeling of a wild road at all, which is very good, you have to keep it up, and if you have the opportunity, you can go abroad for further study. ”

"Maybe it's because you're self-taught, because your playing characteristics are a little too distinct. This is very good for a solo piece, and it is very valuable. But for a concerto, this kind of overly obvious feature of yours will cause some minor problems for yourself and the orchestra. ”

Ye Zi was a little puzzled: "Teacher Chen, I don't really understand what you mean. Doesn't it stand to reason that a performer should have a distinct and unique personality? ”

"You're right." Chen Xieyang smiled and nodded: "But everything has different sides, the personality is too distinct, and the concerto with the orchestra sometimes seems a little out of place, unless the characteristics of the orchestra can be perfectly coordinated with your characteristics." ”

"The truth that is too much can be put anywhere." (To be continued.) )
