Chapter 30: Jiang Bai's violin debut
Several judges were full of praise for Li Mu's cello performance: "The eight variations are all completely different scene experiences..."
"One of the variations, in particular, brings out the best in the cello's high register. The technical difficulty of the cadenza is rare in other solo cello pieces. ”
"I like the latter paragraph, which is the melancholy and sad mood of the cello's solitary voice, as if it is telling about pain."
Every word you and I made comments from several judges praised Li Mu's cello performance.
Jiang Bai focused his attention on the bow in Li Mu's hand.
In general, double basses use two types of bows, one is a French bow called a Botesini bow. The other is called the German or Simandel bow, which has a longer, thinner rod with a wide clasp hand that holds the underside of the stick with your hand.
Li Mu's bow combines the two to create a special hybrid bow, which is more penetrating when it is just played.
South, Hehui City...
As a parallel existence with the imperial capital and Mito, in a certain campus, the double ring school emblem is hung in a conference room, and the school's Chinese name, Xinghai Conservatory of Music, is embedded directly above the rings.
The central figure of the school emblem is composed of two parts, the upper part is based on the shape of the ancient Greek folk musical instrument liel and the notes of the stave, reflecting the characteristics of the conservatory, and the overall shape also shows the unique kapok image of Lingnan, highlighting the regional characteristics of Lingnan.
The overall description of the geographical location and school characteristics of Xinghai Conservatory of Music; The lower part of the graphic is the shape of the book composed of English M, and it is also the flower holder of kapok, which expresses the educational characteristics of the school.
In the conference room, six or seven young people wearing the same silver uniform listened carefully to Li Mu's cello tune just now.
A young man who also has cello attainments was the first to speak: "Li Mu is really not just as simple as the piano, his cello level is very strong. ”
The existence of being able to stand side by side with his own head is really not that simple.
"Compared with Li Mu, I am more curious about his opponent this time."
"Opponents?"
Due to the beginning of the competition, these people switched channels when they were not Li Mu's performance, and they didn't hear Jiang Bai playing at all, so Tai Sui Ye was very curious about Jiang Bai.
"That person doesn't seem to be a threat to Li Mu."
Regarding the blind optimism of his companions, the Tai Sui Ye shook his head: "If he can't threaten Li Mu, there will be no extra game." ”
A musician who can compete with Li Mu on such an occasion aroused his strong interest
On the playing field, many spectators chanted Li Mu, causing Jiang Bai on the side to be a transparent person without any sense of existence.
Even if the host announces that Jiang Bai will start performing next...
A high-pitched burst of sound instantly shook the audience.
Many people fell silent directly, as if by magic, and everyone looked at Jiang Bai, who was constantly kneading the violin on the stage.
Jiang Bai was not affected in any way, only to see that when he rubbed his wrist back and forth, he drove the joints of his fingers, and the touch points of his fingers could not be displaced with the kneading of his wrist.
"He's kneading the strings... Very professional. ”
Soon someone noticed Jiang Bai's movements, and everyone didn't expect that after Li Mu played such an explosive cello, Jiang Bai would continue to perform so calmly.
One of the most expressive playing techniques mastered in kneading string playing. Adding proper kneading to the appropriate place in a phrase will sound much more vivid than a phrase without kneading.
Jiang Bai did not deliberately knead the strings, but simply remembered and awakened.
After all, kneading the strings is an expressive technique for playing a violin, and it can be used to express every note or section of a different style and character.
One of the judges pushed his glasses: "The key to kneading the strings is how to find the best movement of the hand, using the speed and the width of the strings to play the unique style and characteristics of each section." ”
Tai Sui Ye of the Xinghai Conservatory of Music in front of the TV shook his head: "Not only is he kneading the strings, but he is also very skilled in changing strings." ”
I saw the position of Jiang Bai's left fingers on the fretboard, and the violin position. The handle close to the headstock is the low handle, and the one close to the horse is the high handle. Changing from one position to another is called a shift.
Tai Suiye's eyes locked on Jiang Bai's every move: "Change the empty string, change the handle with the same finger, change the handle with different fingers, change the handle with different overtones... The technology is mature. But he doesn't seem to have touched the violin for a long time, and now he's reminiscing. ”
Recall?
"Sometimes, you need to awaken your sleeping ability."
Jiang Bai is in fact awakening his violin skills.
In the process of Beethovenka's continuous synchronization rate, Jiang Bai began to recover some of his violin playing skills according to the memory of the character card projection.
Let's use this song to decide the winner...
"This portamento also..."
Glide can make the connection between notes rich and varied, adding a graceful transition. In particular, the use of portamento in combination with the change of handlebars is an expressive means of playing.
After the soft music sounded, and Jiang Bai began to perform as always, Liu He suddenly became even more angry and crazy: "You taught him the Liandun bow?" ”
Looking at Liu He's look of a negative man, Yu Guang had a little headache: "It has nothing to do with me... It's true... In addition, he doesn't seem to be a Lianton bow, but a natural jumping bow..."
There are many ways to bow the violin, mainly splitting, connecting bows, pausing bows and jumping bows. These 4 types of bowing are the most basic.
Later, the Lianton, in which many notes were played in a row and quickly, were regarded as stunts, but later on, the more legendary natural jumping bow appeared.
During the whole bow movement, the bow hair is on the strings, and it sounds or looks like a jumping bow, which is very ornate.
Whether it's a bow or a natural jumping bow, it's all a lost technique in this world.
Now the natural jumping bow, which is more mysterious than the Liantun bow, has appeared, causing many people to exclaim.
"Natural Jumping Bow... I'm really not mistaken, it's a natural jump bow..."
Beethoven mastered the Lianton Bow and the Natural Jumping Bow, in addition to the four basic bow movements, constantly combining with each other to play this simple violin piece.
The opening is in 2/2 time, F major, in rondo form.
"What a joyful tune..."
Lots of wonderful ornamental sounds, it's gorgeous. The first theme leads to the following themes through the violin, and after various expansions and transpositions, it returns to the first theme. The coda ends the piece with the lead violin in a slow, fading atmosphere.
Although the simple second violin piece romance is very simple, Jiang Bai shows a terrifying technical prowess here.
Yu Guang analyzes the structure of the piece: "Like that to Alice, it is a new kind of compositional rondo..."
Jiang Bai's violin piece is very simple, but the texture of the piece is very good, and it sounds extremely moving.
The end of the song... The scene was extremely quiet and silent.
