Chapter 313: White Rose
On stage, all the lights went out.
Suddenly, a beam of light fell and hit a pure white piano on the stage.
Another beam of light fell, enveloping Liu Yiliang in it.
Dressed in a red suit, he sat on a chair by the piano, elegant as a gentleman, with a pious and soft smile on his face.
Everything on stage is white except for him.
The white is pure and clean, and even the light shining in the air seems to be coated with a hazy white halo, pulling people into a white illusion.
However, at this moment, Liu Yiliang pulled out a rose that was also white from the pure white piano in front of him.
The white rose does not have the showy appearance of the red rose, and its thorny branches appear reserved and noble.
He gently stroked the rose, and with a slight force, the thorny pride bone was broken with a soft "click".
He carefully pinned the broken white rose to his breast pocket.
In this way, the red suit is embellished with a poignant white.
Liu Yiliang's deep voice sounded: "Maybe every man has had two women like this, at least two. married a red rose, and over time, the red one changed to a smear of mosquito blood on the wall, and the white one was still the bright moonlight in front of the bed; When you marry a white rose, the white one is a grain of rice sticky on your clothes, but the red one is a cinnabar mole on your heart."
"Damn, what is he talking about?"
"It seems to be the opening ......."
"It's very meaningful, it seems like that......
The audience whispered, just briefly discussed a few words, closed their mouths, and continued to watch the performance.
Through the silent and almost pantomime performance effect in the early stage, as well as the mysterious and eloquent narration, the audience's fiery heart was silenced at once.
Everyone looked at Liu Yiliang on the stage in a daze, and even breathed so carefully, for fear of destroying the subtle and strange atmosphere in the air.
Everyone suppressed the anticipation in their hearts and quietly listened to the story he was about to tell, not wanting to miss a single cent.
In the lounge, Jiang Kan saw his performances and couldn't help but nod slightly.
Liu Yiliang cleverly sets off the atmosphere of the song, and he makes excellent use of the stage sets, props and his own movements to sway the audience's emotions and bring them into the story he wants to tell through singing.
In this way, he should not be disappointed that he handed over such a good song to him to sing.
On the stage, the light and melodious piano sounded, Liu Yiliang lowered his head, and the ten fingers of his hands danced fast or slowly on the keys, already immersed in the story contained in the song.
The piano sound of the intro exudes a touch of sadness, but it does not seem poignant and sad, but has an atmosphere that makes people look forward to how the story will unfold.
It's a bit like the atmosphere before the weird story in the TV series is about to unfold, but Liu Yiliang stopped in time and didn't let the tune really run down this road, but instead added some light notes to neutralize the weird feeling that appeared in the tune at that time. ….
Accompanied by the light and slightly strange style of the piano, he brewed a good feeling and spoke softly:
"White as white fangs, passion devoured,
Champagne evaporated early and completely.
White as a white moth sneaking back to the red world,
Overlooking the spiritual seat."
His voice was originally very soft and warm.
But in the context of this song's special needs, he has changed his singing voice and pronunciation very flexibly.
He kept his voice low and "read" the lyrics in a way that was close to being eloquent, with an emotion that was close to laziness and helplessness.
"is worthy of being a first-line singer with old qualifications, and this emotion is really well grasped......
Jiang Kan nodded, resting his right palm under his chin, carefully studying the other party's performance
Singing methods and skills, see if there is a place where you can absorb and learn, and use it in singing "Red Rose" by yourself later.
In a quiet environment and with simple musical accompaniment, Liu Yiliang gave full play to his singing experience accumulated over the years.
As the saying goes: the layman looks at the liveliness, and the insider looks at the doorway.
Although the song is sung in the Southern Cantonese dialect, there is always a strange feeling to the average northern audience (relatively speaking).
But the charm contained in the music is similar.
The simple first few words of chanting made the audience all over the world feel Liu Yiliang's superb Cantonese singing skills!
This song is far more difficult than the songs he sang in the last few episodes.
Anyone who has sung a song knows that the song itself contains is actually the best to sing, because the emotions will naturally be revealed in the passionate melody and flamboyant lyrics, and the singer does not need to do too much speculation and practice by himself.
But that's not the case with White Rose.
Songs that seem plain but actually contain deep meanings are actually the most difficult to sing.
Because the singer needs to sing the ups and downs and waves of emotions in the plain and untwisted melody, like a turbulent undercurrent hidden under the calm sea, it needs to turn at any time and may explode at any time.
Some people's voices are more focused on the middle or high range due to the different structure of the voice.
Such a singer is not very good at singing a "bland" song like "White Rose".
But Liu Yiliang's voice is different.
His voice, in the lower register, is quite mellow and soft.
Cantonese songs pay great attention to biting words, and Liu Yiliang can sing a lazy and casual tune, which is to exert force on biting words.
The clear and graceful violin sound joins in and blends with the piano, accentuating the sadness in the music, and the lyrics quickly change.
"But when love suddenly turns into a mustard, as filth and filth, don't mention it,
Silence with a smile rose, with a thorn in return gift only trust defense,
How cold but still beautiful, what you can't get is never precious,
When you are at a disadvantage, how can you not be scheming and show awe to test your regulations......
Liu Yiliang's tone is still tactful in the low register, perfectly controlling the ups and downs of the sound, as if there is a turbulent undercurrent hidden under the calm water.
The violin grows louder, the other instruments join in the rhythm, and the drum beats the key of the song uplifts the key of the song, as if to transport the listener into a completely different dream. ….
Not only the audience is secretly addicted to it in their hearts.
Liu Yiliang himself was extremely shocked in his heart.
"This Jiang Kan, the ability to write songs is really perfect! How did he write such a good song? So elegant, so wonderful, yet so sharp, piercing the heart......
Shaking his head lightly with an imperceptible amplitude, he forcibly suppressed the shock in his heart, Liu Yiliang continued to sing, but his thoughts inevitably drifted into the distance, he wanted to know what the originator of this song would feel in his heart after hearing him sing.
"Even the nightmare is still beautiful,
Be willing to cushion the bottom, line your nobility,
A pinch of roses, a funeral of the undoubted heart,
When love has passed,
...... next life"
Liu Yiliang's singing is still ongoing.
And the shock of the audience continued.
Especially the audience who was interested in Cantonese songs in the past listened to the little stars in their eyes, and their admiration was revealed.
"Liu Yiliang is a Lingnan native, singing this kind of song is simply blessed, the pronunciation is so standard!"
"Yes, the nine tones and six tones completely capture the essence of the lyrics, as if they were tailor-made for him."
"Doesn't this highlight the strength of composers and lyricists, these days, there are very few creators who can write and are willing to write Cantonese songs, and they have all been Chinese
The song completely stole the limelight, and it was so decaying that it didn't seem to be like words!"
"Yes, the good Cantonese songs are all those from more than 20 years ago, and the new songs written by those people now are what they are, they are no different from saliva songs, superficial and noisy, I really can't listen to them......
……
"It's so good to sing, he's got the essence of the song completely......
The audience was talking, and in the singer's own lounge, Jiang Kan's posture had also changed to clasping his hands against his jaw.
His eyes were firmly fixed on Liu Yiliang on the stage, and his heart was full of shock and admiration.
This song is because it is a Cantonese song, and I can't grasp it, so I handed it over to Liu Yiliang to sing in order to have a contrast.
I thought he was just an ordinary interpretation, but I didn't expect him to be able to sing so well.
I don't know if I can suppress his current performance when he sings another version in the future?
And the audience in the audience was completely attracted by his singing, because it was Cantonese for fear that everyone would not understand, Liu Yiliang also deliberately changed the two screens above the stage that were originally used to play advertisements to play lyrics, so everyone could understand what he was singing.
"This song...... That's good!"
"Yes, although it is sung in the Nanyue dialect, why do I find the charm of this song so fascinating?"
"This lyric is also written perfectly, not only perfectly in line with the language habits and pronunciation collocation of Cantonese, but also portrays the game confrontation and choice between men and women when they are in love...... I wonder which composer's work it is?"
"Well, I've got some gossip...... It is said that Jiang Kan wrote it to him!"
"Jiang Kan? Is it the first singer Jiang Kan in the previous issues? Wouldn't he be able to write Cantonese songs?" ….
"You're lonely, aren't you, "Cold Rainy Night" isn't a Cantonese song? Isn't "Like You" too? Jiang Kan can not only write Cantonese songs, but also have a high attainment! I don't know if he wrote songs for the first 40 years, so he didn't make his debut?"
……
At this time, the lounges of the other singers also let out voices of admiration and surprise
"This song is really well written......
Zhao Yu leaned on the sofa in the lounge, letting the masseur help her relax her shoulders, while watching Liu Yiliang's performance on stage, with an appreciative look in her eyes.
"I heard that this song was written by Mr. Jiang Kan for him, but I don't know if it's true......
Her assistant Xiaoyun also stared at the screen with her eyes shining, and she was deeply impressed by the other party's performance just now, and at this time, she heard her boss make a praising voice, so she said the gossip she had heard.
"Oh? Jiang Kan helped him write it?"
Zhao Yu, who was originally leisurely leaning back against the sofa with a lazy demeanor, subconsciously sat up straight, looked at Xiaoyun, and asked in a questioning tone.
"Yes, it was rumored in the agent circle that Mr. Jiang Kan seemed to have made a deal with Mr. Liu Yiliang, and the specific content is not clear, but what else can I do with him besides his songs?"
Xiaoyun is very aware of the relationship between his boss and Jiang Kan, and this matter has been spread all over the outside anyway, so he doesn't feel that there is anything to cover up.
Her boss is an arrogant person, and she usually doesn't bother to care about some gossip in the circle, but she is her assistant, so she has to collect some news in the circle at any time, right?
"I see, I'll just say, such a high-quality Cantonese song doesn't look like someone else can write it, but it looks like the ever-changing creative style of a creative genius like Jiang Kan......
Staring at Liu Yiliang on the screen, Zhao Yu fell into deep thought again.
……
The audience talked a lot, and they all praised the song for its profound concept, concise words and endless charm.
Soon, the 3 minutes and 58 seconds of singing the song ended.
There was silence in the audience at first.
A round of applause and cheers erupted.
In particular, those who could understand Cantonese were even more excited to tears.
"Thank you very much for your support and encouragement to me, whew~ This song is too difficult to sing, and I am a little nervous about whether I can play well......
"Okay, after the singer Liu Yiliang finishes singing, the host Liu Yiliang takes the stage again!
After Liu Yiliang finished singing, he immediately changed to the identity of the host and continued to speak the string words.
"Next, I will bring you a newcomer who is not a newcomer, he can be as enthusiastic as fire, and he can be gentle as water, his handsomeness and handsomeness can't hide his singing talent, but he can become extremely literary and artistic, with a guitar, and sing a low song for you with tenderness......
Although he did not hold the card to prompt the lines, Liu Yiliang's report was still extremely accurate, not a word was missed, and he was still full of emotion.
"Then we have invited the next competing singer to bring you a warm song, hoping to bring you a warm feeling in this cold early spring, everyone applauds!"
Liu Yiliang walked off the stage, and the lights on the stage disappeared and became dark.
In the singer's passage, under several pillars of light, a tall and handsome figure with an acoustic guitar appeared in everyone's sight.
He walked out slowly, and while the lights were out, the staff had placed a high chair in the middle of the stage, and in front of it was a microphone set up on a shelf.
The singer expertly walked onto the stage, sat down in a high chair, and put the orange acoustic guitar on his chest, his hands in place.
"Bang!"
A golden spotlight fell from the ceiling, just enveloping him in it, and a dense aura slowly circulated on the stage, showing a solemn, solemn but extremely gentle and soothing atmosphere.
The spotlight shines on Wang Yuchang's handsome face, and at this moment he is holding an acoustic guitar in his arms, as if he is holding a lover, his eyes are gentle and tenacious.
The audience also watched him and the guitar in his hand silently, waiting for his performance to begin.
