301. Listen to the blood boiling of erhu! No way? What kind of instrument is this?
As the saying goes, there is no soul that suona can't send away, and there is no person who doesn't cry in erhula!
The unique voice of the erhu is naturally suitable for playing a sadder tone, and it is also more able to arouse people's sad emotions......
As soon as the prelude to many erhu tunes sounds, it will make many people sad in an instant!
Just like the song Erquan Yingyue played by Wang Cheng just now, it is based on sadness, but it is not a pure tragedy, because it also expresses a positive attitude towards life, expressing the original author's life attitude even if he has a bumpy life, but he is still strong, so the song is very complete, not just playing a tragedy and ending it, as if people have lived a lifetime.
In this way, it has very high artistic value and research value, and is known as a classic, and has been listed in the first place in the ranking of many famous erhu songs in Wang Cheng's memory, and has never fallen out of the top three.
And many music masters and audiences who understand folk music at the scene, the erhu performances that they have heard and heard since childhood are also mainly based on tragedy, because this is the innate advantage of the erhu instrument, and many previous creators and performers will naturally give full play to the innate advantages of this instrument as much as possible!
So!
It's really not surprising to shed tears because of listening to erhu.
But......
The brand-new erhu work played by Wang Cheng at this time does not look like a tragedy at all, it is not sad at all, and it gives people a sense of lofty and empty space at the beginning, making people feel a sense of atmosphere rushing towards them!
Almost everyone who knows a little bit about folk music can hear that this is definitely another new erhu work!
Because......
If they have heard of such a work in a completely different style from traditional erhu works, then they will never forget it.
A pair of eyes stared at Wang Cheng, all full of shock and incredible!
Lin Dongqing said in a low voice: "This should be a new work created by himself." He's not going to play all of his new works at today's recital, is he? ”
Lin Mi took a deep breath again, her eyes were still reluctant to leave Wang Cheng for a moment, her pretty face was red with excitement, and her face was full of admiration: "Why not?" He'll definitely be able to do it, depending on whether he wants to do it or not! ”
Lin Dongqing said shockingly: "Then, if he really does this, he will really become a god!" Since then, no one dares to question him in the field of classical music and art at home and abroad, and no one dares to rank ahead of him...... No one in the history of classical music in the world has been able to do this. ”
None of Europe's most famous musical and artistic giants have ever done this!
Therefore, if Wang Cheng does it, under the witness of dozens or hundreds of top music artists at home and abroad, then Wang Cheng can really become a god in the field of classical music in an instant, and everyone present must bow down!
Even if Wang Cheng did not focus on the piano, violin, and other mainstream European and American instruments, it was enough to suppress all the classical music masters in the world.
It doesn't matter what kind of domestic master you are, or the top international schools and international music masters, you have to kneel......
But!
It's incredible.
Lin Mi asked: "Since Wang Cheng's debut, has he sung other people's works?" Have you ever played someone else's work? ”
Lin Dongqing was stunned for a moment, and then his face changed slightly, he thought about it carefully, and found that Wang Cheng really hadn't sung other people's songs and works, nor had he played other people's music works!
Wang Cheng only performed other people's repertoire with his teammates on Dragon TV's talent show Oriental Star when he first made his debut, but Wang Cheng was just a backup dancer at that time, the kind of backup dance without a word of lyrics......
Since Wang Cheng began to sing and perform by himself, there has never been any other people's works, only his own works, whether they are pop music works or classical music works, are his own originals.
So......
Can Wang Cheng continue this at his solo concert today?
Lin Dongqing didn't dare to think about it.
Because, that's really incredible, it's awesome.
At this moment, a sudden rush of different music hits.
Lin Dongqing and Lin Mi's father and daughter also immediately stopped talking, and looked at the stage with amazement.
I saw Wang Cheng sitting on a chair, plucking the strings of the erhu with one hand, making a rapid sound, as if this was not an erhu, but a guitar, but this rapid sound was extremely consistent with the music that Wang Cheng played just now......
This kind of erhu performance technique was seen for the first time by everyone present, but the effect was surprisingly good, novel and amazing.
Tian Wen, Fan Yu, Xu Chaohua and all other folk music masters stood up instantly, leaning forward slightly, staring at Wang Cheng with a pair of eyes, wanting to see every movement of Wang Cheng clearly and record every detail of Wang Cheng's performance......
This groundbreaking new performance technique is refreshing and shocking to all those who understand folk music......
Originally!
Erhu can still be played like this.
And, how well it works?
The galloping horse is so in line with the style of Wang Cheng's performance.
All of them clearly saw in an instant, a group of herdsmen riding horses galloping and chasing on the grassland, everyone wanted to fight for the first place!
In their eyes, the erhu in Wang Cheng's hand has become completely different from the erhu in their impression.
In the music, they seem to hear the sound of the horse-head fiddle, the playing effect of the guitar, and many other sounds and moods that they could not hear in the previous erhu performance.
This is very different from the traditional way they remember playing the erhu.
Because the erhu work played by Wang Cheng in front of him is an extremely standard traditional erhu work and performance method, the comparison between the two makes the change of Wang Cheng's performance style more clear and impactful.
Seem......
In an instant, times changed.
At this time, Wang Cheng's movements and postures playing the erhu were extremely open, warm and unrestrained, and the movements of the whole person were as if he was riding a horse.
All of them had a feeling of wanting to reacquaint themselves with the erhu as an instrument.
This kind of national musical instrument, which has been inherited in the land of China for thousands of years and has a sense of cultural heaviness, has a new breath at this time, which is in line with the new era!
Xu Chaohua, who was standing, muttered in a low voice: "It's amazing...... This erhu work has created a new era of erhu! However, the song just now is the most classic traditional erhu work! This new and old have all reached the limit, to the extent that they can be called classics, what does Wang Cheng want to express? Do you want to tell us that we have been living in music for so many years? Is it to tell us that we should abandon tradition and seek new changes? ”
Xu Chaohua's words made Yan Qing next to him, as well as many other folk music experts from the conservatory, couldn't help but nod excitedly.
Wang Cheng's erhu work, with a new style and playing technique, seemed to open a new door for them in an instant......
Since......
Erhu can be so innovative and changeable, the effect is so good, and the live performance is so shocking.
So......
Can other national musical instruments also be developed in this way?
Have they done something wrong with their years of conservative tradition?
Classical music and folk music have not made the slightest progress in the past few years, but have regressed a lot, are they all their self-contained responsibilities?
Time......
Staring at Wang Cheng and listening to the exciting erhu music, all the domestic musicians present thought of a lot.
Although many foreign musicians don't know much about erhu, so they don't quite understand the meaning of Wang Cheng's work, but they can also intuitively feel that there is a huge difference between the work Wang Cheng just played and the work he is playing now, which also makes them even more shocked Wang Cheng's exploration of different styles of the same instrument, which is so profound!
Under the watchful eyes of everyone who is shocked and thoughtful!
Wang Cheng stood up directly, the whole person's movements were more violent, more open and closed, and his body shook with the fierce music, which more intuitively showed the core of this piece - horseback riding, and his whole person seemed to be playing erhu while riding a horse.
This is also the most refreshing time for Wang Cheng to play the erhu, this horse racing is really a rare refreshing repertoire with a different style in the erhu, Wang Cheng did not study it carefully in his previous life, but can play. This time, he devoted himself to the performance, and he really realized the core artistic conception of this piece, and the whole person was also a little excited.
When the last note is played......
Wang Cheng was still standing, keeping the horseback riding action for a few seconds before he came out of the artistic conception of the song and gently touched the erhu, liking this instrument very much.
And the music stops.
The scene remained quiet for more than a minute.
Lin Mi and Wen Yixiao applauded in unison, and the fierce applause woke everyone at the scene......
Then, everyone's applause immediately came, and everyone immediately stood up together and gave their warmest applause to the figure on the stage with all their might.
Even Charles, Howard, Heicy, Heidi and others stood up willingly at this moment, applauded vigorously, and gave their applause to Wang Cheng and to music and art!
The day after tomorrow, Hu Xiaoshan, Li Guang, Zhang Huizhong, Xie Xingfeng, and Shen Shenghui also applauded together, and everyone's eyes were full of admiration and shock.
Hu Xiaoshan looked at Wang Cheng and the excited audience in the audience, the audience of 3,000 people stood up and applauded, the scene was still quite lively, and exclaimed: "It's the first time I've seen such a warm concert scene!" Of course, it is the first time I have seen Wang Cheng's wonderful erhu performance, the two pieces are completely different in style and performance techniques, I didn't expect that I would be so enthusiastic when I listened to the erhu. ”
Standing ovations are not uncommon.
The world's best virtuoso has enjoyed it, and often enjoys it.
For example, Charles, Howard, Crowder, Scott, Mueller, Hanks and others have enjoyed many such standing ovations from the audience.
However, it was basically a human applause, not a real applause that was shocked and conquered by the music, which can be seen from the expressions of the audience.
Listening to the enthusiasm of the erhu can be heard, they are really the first time to feel it.
Xie Xingfeng's eyes flickered, and he said in a low voice: "If I arrange a personal concert for Wang Cheng in the Spring Festival Gala, what will be the effect?" ”
Xie Xingfeng could think that Wang Cheng's two erhu performances, coupled with the previous guzheng performances, were definitely the promotion and promotion of Chinese national culture, and he could definitely get support from above, which would reduce his resistance.
And Hu Xiaoshan, Li Guang, Zhang Huizhong, and Shen Shenghui all looked at Xie Xingfeng at the same time, with doubts and questions.
Arrange a solo recital for Wang Cheng at the Spring Festival Gala?
What time slot do you schedule?
Where do you put the others?
Didn't Wang Cheng clearly refuse because of the conflict in work hours?
Xie Xingfeng saw the doubts of several people, took a deep breath, and said, "I'm looking for a solution, and I came here to discuss with Wang Cheng this time." ”
Shen Shenghui welcomes this.
Although Wang Cheng's Spring Festival Gala greatly increased the exposure rate, which was contrary to his plan, it could also bring some resources to the company as a whole.
Moreover, CCTV's invitation to the Spring Festival Gala, he really didn't dare to refuse at will.
From the standpoint of the entertainment company, there is no reason to refuse......
Therefore, Shen Shenghui said softly: "If Wang Cheng agrees, then we will definitely have no opinion." ”
Xie Xingfeng nodded, knowing that Shen Shenghui was a tool man, and then asked curiously, "What will Wang Cheng play next?" Will you continue to play the erhu? Director Shen, have you made a performance plan for Wang Cheng? ”
Shen Shenghui smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Wherever there is any performance plan, he doesn't communicate with us." For this concert, we just helped him rent the venue and sell tickets. For the rest, I can't do anything. We don't know anything about the repertoire. We don't even know what instrument he uses. That's why I prepared so many instruments for him on stage, I'm afraid he won't find a ...... he likes."
Xie Xingfeng and Zhang Huizhong knew the inside story of this concert, and when they looked at each other, they were very shocked, and they admired Wang Cheng even more.
Can you treat a solo concert like this......
He is really a man of God.
The most important thing is that Wang Cheng's performance will not disappoint.
Taking a deep breath, Zhang Huizhong said in a low voice: "You let Wang Chengdong and West like this, it's really a waste of his strength and talent!" ”
With Wang Cheng's strength and talent, if you plan a show well and give full play to Wang Cheng's strength and talent, the effect will definitely explode, and it is absolutely possible to surpass the peak of tomorrow's idols.
The people present are all upper-class people in the entertainment industry, and they are not short of vision and ideas, so they all know that Zhang Huizhong is telling the truth.
The value of Wang Cheng is immeasurable......
But.
Several people looked at Shen Shenghui.
They know that the contradiction between Rubik's Cube Entertainment and Wang Cheng is even further - Wang Cheng's value is too high, and Rubik's Cube Entertainment is reluctant to let go.
Shen Shenghui smiled bitterly and didn't speak, but continued to look at Wang Cheng.
The applause gradually stopped.
But......
Everyone did not sit down, but continued to stand, stretching their necks to look at Wang Cheng on the stage.
Because......
After Wang Cheng finished playing this erhu tune, he seemed to lose interest in the erhu, and casually put the erhu on the instrument rack next to him, and then stood there, with his hands behind his back, and began to examine the instruments on the instrument shelf......
Everyone at the scene was also full of curiosity, and their eyes moved with Wang Cheng's gaze and footsteps.
Everyone wants to know.
What instrument will Wang Cheng use to play next?
In particular, many domestic folk music masters and the world's top music artists from abroad, such as Charles and Howard, all looked at Wang Cheng expectantly and nervously.
They all hope that Wang Cheng will play with the instruments they are familiar with in the future to show the music art they want to see, and if Wang Cheng can also show some new things, maybe it can bring some new inspiration to their future music art road.
Tian Wen stared at Wang Cheng and muttered nervously: "Guzheng, choose Guzheng......"
As one of the few guzheng masters in China, she naturally hopes that Wang Cheng can play a guzheng tune again, just like the general order and fishing boat singing night that Wang Cheng played before, bringing new vitality to the guzheng again.
However, there were other folk music masters around her who were also whispering: "Choose the flute, and the flute is also good......
Someone else said, "Why don't you just have a horse-head qin?" ”
"No, you really think he knows all those instruments?"
In the end, the words of this folk music expert made several people around him silent and wryly smiled.
Yes......
There are more than ten or twenty popular and unpopular folk musical instruments above, and some of them are not named by folk music experts for a while, how can they demand that Wang Cheng can play them?
It is amazing that Wang Cheng can reach the level of the top master in the field of four musical instruments, including erhu guzheng, piano, and violin......
They couldn't have asked for more.
After all, Wang Cheng is only a nineteen-year-old child......
And Charles and Howard were also whispering.
"Piano!"
"Violin ......"
"God, choose the piano! I want to hear him play Etude No. 1 live. ”
"Etude No. 1 is a terrible name."
"No way, who told people to be too lazy to take the name? Why don't we give him a name? ”
"The creator is still alive, we can't help him choose a name, and when he dies, we will all be gone, let alone change his name."
Heidi stared at Wang Cheng with both eyes, and even clasped her hands together as if in prayer and whispered, "Please, piano!" ”
Although Heidi doesn't understand erhu, she is a genius after all, and she can naturally clearly feel the artistic conception of music and art expressed by Wang Cheng's two erhu works, so she is even more shocked in her heart, and she is more looking forward to what wonderful artistic enjoyment Wang Cheng's live piano performance can bring.
Phipps next to him whispered: "I don't believe that he really knows so many instruments on it." It's incredible to know how many instruments you can play on. Now, he doesn't really have many options. Probably, it's piano, guzheng, violin...... Personally, of course, I would love that he could play the piano! ”
"To be honest, the last time I listened to his piano performance at the recording of the show, I had some noticeable improvement. If I could hear him live on the piano two more times, I think I'd be able to surpass you, Heidi! ”
Heidi listened to Phipps's words, unimpressed, without the slightest pressure.
Because, she is confident that her talent is above Phipps and others, and it is absolutely impossible for Phipps to surpass ......
At this time......
Wang Cheng on the stage stopped in front of the second instrument shelf, his eyes swept over the familiar instruments above, and finally his eyes stayed on the one hanging there in the middle.
It's a ready-made instrument that almost everyone doesn't notice much, and it's one that no one can imagine.
But......
Wang Cheng was interested at this time.
I want to try this kind of instrument that I can only play in my previous life, but I don't have too deep attainments, and I want to try to see if I can play the effect I want like the erhu just now?
Under everyone's wide-eyed, somewhat incredulous gaze.
Wang Cheng reached out and picked up the instrument from the shelf.
The scene fell silent in an instant, and all whispering disappeared......
In an instant, it became audible for a needle drop.
All the domestic audiences only don't believe it in their hearts - won't it?
And Howard, Charles and other foreign audiences only have doubts in their eyes......
Because, most of them, they have never seen this instrument, they are extremely unfamiliar, and they all want to ask - what is it?
