Chapter 158: Shocking Organ Performance
Qin Yi, Lu Zhou and Ye Fangfei came to the solitary piano room in Qin's home.
On the third floor, Qin Yi vacated an entire floor of space, which was specially designed and decorated into a piano room.
When you enter here, you will really find that Qin Lao is a man who is obsessed with music and art.
Most of the commonly used instruments in his piano room are available, mainly wind instruments and string instruments, and the most crazy thing is that he really installed an organ in his own home, and the design is very professional, not the kind that he just installs at home to play.
This is an audiophile, and it is really a howe.
When Lu Zhou saw the pipe organ, he couldn't help but step forward and stroke it.
Qin Yi silently observed his every move behind him.
He didn't know how good the young man's organ skills were, but he was very curious.
Qin Yi is a master of piano in China, and has taught pianists who are world-renowned and make him quite proud.
But in fact, his love for the organ is no less than that of the piano, and he is also very strong in the field of pipe organ.
Playing art costs money.
Not to mention playing the organ.
Pipe organs are huge, expensive to build and maintain, and are a scarce resource in the field of art.
Therefore, there are still few people who learn the organ, and it is not so easy to find high-level talents from it to train them well.
Qin Lao had always wanted to take in an apprentice who would learn the organ with him, but he had never found a student he thought he was satisfied with.
Tonight, Lu Zhou took the initiative to propose that the music "Empty" is more suitable for the organ to play, obviously he considered the effect of the organ when writing the music, then he must have understood the organ people.
Qin Yi faintly had some kind of expectation for Lu Zhou in his heart.
How well does this young man know the organ? He'll really wait and see.
Ye Fangfei, who was also a bystander, was not as rich in Qin Lao's mental activities, and her understanding of the organ was not professional.
Qin Lao actually fooled her when she was a child, and asked her if she wanted to try to learn the organ with him.
At that time, Qin Yi probably thought that she had considerable economic strength and a certain musical talent, so she was not afraid to make this kind of instrument.
But at that time, Ye Fangfei still couldn't appreciate this instrument, and felt that it was too complicated, so she didn't learn it.
Still, she knew it was a great instrument.
The charm of the organ lies in the fact that one person can play solo in real time and play the effect of a whole large orchestra working together, and if you have good professional skills, the effect is very shocking.
She found a chair and sat down, waiting for Lu Zhou's performance to begin.
At this time, after Lu Zhou observed the organ, he took off his shoes and sat in front of the piano.
The organ is played not only with the hands, but also with the feet.
All four limbs can be used, so if one cannot use one's limbs flexibly at the same time, this instrument can be ignored.
"The soundproofing here should be passable, right? It's a bit late...... Will not disturb the neighbors. Lu Zhou smiled and turned his head to look at Qin Lao.
The strong sound volume of the organ will be very loud, and if the sound insulation is not good, then it is estimated that the neighbors will complain from all sides tonight.
"Rest assured." Qin Yi gave him a dose of reassurance.
Lu Zhou nodded, he looked at the organ again, and began to tune.
He first played a melody to listen to the effect, and then played another melody to confirm the effect again.
The layman only listens to the tone, and does not hear any bad effect.
Insiders know that the audition is because the player is very sure of what kind of sound he wants to present in the piece he is going to play, and he is fine-tuning.
Lu Zhou's audition operation looks quite proficient, he tried different melodies to confirm the details, and those who know know that this is not a rookie with half a bucket of water.
Uncle Qin's eyes as he looked at Lu Zhou had gradually begun to glow.
Ye Fangfei noticed Qin Lao's expression, and couldn't help but snicker, she really knew his expression too well.
"In your organ, the volume of some strong and weak notes is too big for the piece "Empty", and the effect may be a little different from what I want."
At this time, Lu Zhou, who was auditioning, spoke.
When Ye Fangfei heard this, she interjected and asked, "Can't you adjust it?" ”
"You can tune it, but it's too late tonight, if you want to tune it, I'm afraid you have to add a bigger reed and use a strong speaker to control it." Lu Zhou replied.
As he spoke, his hand was adjusting the stops on the organ.
What Lu Zhou said involved Ye Fangfei's knowledge blind spots, and she couldn't help, she looked at Qin Yi and found that the curvature of the corners of his mouth was rising at the moment, and his eyes were always staring at Lu Zhou.
Ye Fangfei couldn't help but raise her eyebrows, this was a fancy for ???
"You make do with it once, I'll have someone add reeds another day, and when it's ready, you can try it again." Qin Yi replied.
Ye Fangfei: "......"
Well, this tone is really fancy.
"Okay." Lu Zhoutou replied casually without looking back, he didn't think about it so much, and his attention at the moment was on tuning.
"Is there anything else you want to focus on?" Qin Yi asked.
"Others, some of them can be tuned now. For example, I want a smoother crescendo ......" Lu Zhou replied, casually playing another melody, and said:
"That starts with the pipes and 8' stops, and when you need to boost the sound, then moves on to the 4' and 2' stops......"
"This kind of effect will be much better."
"And this ......" Lu Zhou played another melody and said: "The effect that comes out now is like this, the 18th range on the major key, the tuning is too big, and you can add strong and weak sound plugs." ”
As Lu Zhou said this, the corners of Qin Yi's mouth had already blossomed.
After some organ adjustment, Lu Zhou was ready to enter his formal performance.
Qin Yi pulled over the chair and sat next to Ye Fangfei, and the two acted as listeners.
The first piece played by Lu Zhou was something Ye Fangfei hadn't heard before, and it was obviously a new suite he wrote for "Empty".
It begins with an overtone, very weak, very long, with a slight tremor, and in it, as if the soul is about to be cleansed, and the brain begins to empty.
You can feel ethereal, truly quiet, with no one around, thought-provoking.
After that, the tone began to change, from weak to strong, very smooth, and finally the feeling of the bellows pulling in, the volume was grand, and the momentum was majestic, so that the ears had a sense of roar, as if the scene was about to explode, and the musicality entered the climax.
Then there was a low whine, and it was quiet again.
Ye Fangfei looked at Lu Zhou silently, and she finally heard the feeling he had described earlier from the melody of the new suite he played this time.
The melody creates a picture of a rather struggling inner self.
It's like there are two people in my heart tearing, and the part where the tone pulls into the climax is the most powerful embodiment of struggling and tearing.
In the end, it comes down to a slow monotonous silence, and one of the "I" wins, right? "I" made the final decision.
The effect of the organ is very shocking.
It's so powerful, Ye Fangfei's eyes were moist again.
Qin Yi was also shocked by the performance of this song, and his hands resting on his legs couldn't help but tremble slightly.
At this time, Lu Zhou had already entered the performance of the second suite, which was the one he had played for Ye Fangfei in the Lian Variety show before.
The rhythm at the beginning of this section is much faster than the previous suite, the rhythm is more joyful, a little warm breath in the world, the melody is very comfortable, and you can listen to the ear.
Then enter the cycle of what appears to be a swirling sound, as if you are no longer in this land, and enter a whole new world.
A powerful sense of loneliness and loneliness invaded the heart again.
Parasitic mayflies in the heavens and the earth, a millet in the sea.
The sound goes from far to near, from weak to strong, and the story enters the next rhythm.
The wind pulls in again, the scene becomes grand, and then quickly moves on to the next suite, a similar score, but with a lot of effort on different details and melodies, and writes an effect suitable for completely different scenes and moods.
Finally, it ends with an extra-long fortiss.
When the piece was finished, the room fell silent.
Qin Yi and Ye Fangfei couldn't react from the music just now for a long time.
Lu Zhou withdrew his hand on the keys for a long time before slowly turning to look at the two only spectators.
Their eyes fell on him, and although they did not speak, the look in their eyes told him that they seemed to have a thousand words in their hearts, but they did not know where to start.
"It's a bit of a handicap." Lu Zhou smiled awkwardly at them and opened his mouth to break the silence, "I just made a mistake and played a few beats wrong. ”
Qin Yi finally came back to his senses, he let out a long sigh heavily, and was able to soothe the feeling in his heart, then raised his hand with a smile and applauded, saying, "It's shocking!" It's really impressive, it's excellent! ”
"We didn't see your new sheet music, so we won't find out if you play it wrong." Ye Fangfei also put away the emotions immersed in the music and said with a smile.
Lu Zhou got off the organ and put his shoes back on.
He looked at Ye Fangfei with a smile and quipped: "You listened to it this time, didn't you cry?" Looks like I'm playing averagely. ”
Ye Fangfei laughed "sneer", and then seriously recalled the feeling she had just listened to the performance, and analyzed her feelings as a listener:
"The feeling of listening to it this time is completely different from what I heard before. Maybe it's because you've enriched the melody, and this time it's an organ performance, and the effect conveyed is a very complex and gradual blend of emotions. ”
"One minute I wanted to cry, but the next second I had already entered other emotions, and in the end, all I was left with was the shock in my heart that I couldn't calm down for a long time."
"Where can I care about crying?"
Qin Yi nodded approvingly, "That's true, these suites are very well written, both delicate and grand, and the progression and transition of emotions are very smooth. ”
Being praised always makes people feel happy, no matter how many times they are praised.
Lu Zhou smiled and said, "Thank you for your recognition, this means a lot to me." ”
"Did you do this suite alone?" Qin Yi suddenly asked with a serious face.
Lu Zhou: "Yes. ”
Qin Yi nodded thoughtfully, looked at Lu Zhou, suddenly thought of something, and said with some annoyance:
"If you're like this, you should enter the classical music circle, enter the international concert hall, and play what kind of idol trainees in the entertainment industry? Who sent you there? It's really visionless, it's just a burying talent! ”
Lu Zhou: "......"
Ye Fangfei: "......" inexplicably has the illusion that she herself was also scolded by the way.
"He's very talented, if only I had discovered him ten years earlier!" Qin Yi shook his head and sighed at Ye Fangfei.
"It's not too late for you to find out." Ye Fangfei said with a smile.
"It's still too late to find out...... Qin Yi muttered, and suddenly turned his head to look at Lu Zhou, and asked with sparkling eyes: "Which master did you study with your organ?" ”
"Huh?" Lu Zhou was slightly stunned, "Learn from ......"
Who did you study with??? Studying under the top masters of another world......
I can't say that.
Qin Lao saw that Lu Zhou Zhiwu didn't say his name for a long time, and guessed that he must have learned from some organ teachers who couldn't be named, otherwise, how could he not have heard of it in the circle if he was so talented?
It shows that the teacher doesn't know how to distinguish talents, so he lost a talent, Lu Zhou can have this organ level, it is estimated that he was interested at the time, and he practiced diligently and hard to play so smoothly today.
Lu Zhou's current level is indeed professional, but there are still many things that can be further improved.
"Although it's a bit shameless to boast about myself, I'm a thick-skinned person."
Qin Lao didn't wait for Lu Zhou to reply, and then opened his mouth to answer.
"In the field of domestic pipe organs, I, Qin Yi, am also considered to be the top school, not to mention my influence in the piano field, I believe you have also heard of it."
"Would you like to continue to improve your organ and piano skills? If you want to go to the next level, I, Qin Yi, want to take you as an apprentice, are you willing? ”
As soon as Qin Yi's words came out, Ye Fangfei couldn't help but raise her eyebrows, looked at Lu Zhou excitedly, and gave him a hint of madness.
"If you enter the classical music circle, you will know how difficult it is to become Qin Lao's apprentice, he has high requirements for accepting apprentices."
"He has only officially accepted two apprentices for this achievement."
"One is Wang Yanhua, and the other is Song Yi."
"You don't play classical music, maybe you haven't heard of Song Yi's name, but Wang Yanhua, you must have heard of it, right?"
Ye Fangfei explained to Lu Zhou with some excitement.
Of course, Lu Zhou heard Wang Yanhua's name, so he nodded, "I've heard of this, he is very famous." ”
Wang Yanhua is now the most prestigious new generation of pianist in China, and has won awards in various international competitions large and small, and has been named "Piano Genius".
"He is Qin Lao's first disciple." Ye Fangfei said, "For so many years, Qin Lao has only accepted two apprentices, and other piano students in the circle have tried their best to worship Qin Lao as a teacher, but he doesn't accept them, so you know ......."
Ye Fangfei didn't finish the next words, but the meaning was already very obvious.
I just want him to agree quickly, don't waste such a great time!
Lu Zhou actually made up his mind a long time ago.
However, he deliberately wanted to sell it now, and he joked at Ye Fangfei: "If you want to apprentice, Qin Lao won't accept it?" ”
Ye Fangfei: "......"
Qin Yi snorted when he heard this, and glanced at Ye Fangfei, this glance was quite a bit of hatred for iron and steel.
"No! Not to mention the technique, as long as she is lazy in practicing, she is not qualified to be my apprentice. Qin Yi said.
The corners of Ye Fangfei's mouth trembled, "Hehe! How can I be lazy? I'm just spending my energy elsewhere. ”
"Half-hearted, isn't that another degree of laziness, look at how you practice on the cello?" Qin Yi continued to be sarcastic.
Ye Fangfei scratched her forehead, "......"
Lu Zhou inexplicably felt that this scene was quite warm, and he couldn't help laughing.
Ye Fangfei glanced at him, and he snickered even more happily.
"So, what the hell do you think? Or do you go back and think about it and give me an answer? Qin Yi looked at Lu Zhou and asked seriously.
"Don't look at my age, I think I still have a lot to teach in my stomach. Take your song "Empty" as an example, I can also help you enrich the arrangement. ”
At this moment, Qin Yi is quite a bit of Huang Po's self-selling and boasting about selling melons.
Lu Zhou smiled and nodded: "It is a great honor for me to be able to worship you as a teacher, of course I am willing." ”
Qin Yi finally showed a bright smile on his face, he patted Lu Zhou's shoulder heavily, and said happily: "Okay!" All right! ”
Ye Fangfei also smiled, raised her eyebrows and looked at Lu Zhou, "Don't call the teacher yet?" ”
Qin Yi laughed, "Don't be in a hurry, it's not too late to shout when the apprenticeship ceremony is officially held another day." ”
……
The three of them talked happily at Qin Lao's house, and when the night was getting dark, Ye Fangfei and Lu Zhou left Qin Lao's house.
While waiting for the bus.
Ye Fangfei suddenly asked Lu Zhou: "Your fish pond must be very big, right?" ”
Lu Zhou was stunned for a moment, "Huh? ”
"You can play so many musical instruments, if the fish pond at home is not big enough, I'm afraid I can't afford you to play these, right?"
She looked up at him with a smirk, and pointed out the meaning of the previous sentence.
Lu Zhou then understood what she was referring to, pursed his lips and smiled, "It's not big, but it's really not small." ”
Ye Fangfei nodded knowingly and said, "The first time I heard you say that your family is a fish farmer, that frustrated tone, I thought your family was poor." ”
Lu Zhou: "......"
is worthy of Ye Fangfei, and the irony is played very smoothly.
"Poverty has always been the theory of relativity, mainly depending on who you compare with, the object of comparison at that time was you, then my fish pond is really not enough." Lu Zhou said with a smile.
Ye Fangfei was slightly surprised: "Do you know the situation of my family?" ”
"Uh......" Lu Zhou's Adam's apple rolled up and down, almost leaking his mouth, he cleared his throat and said, "I can guess some." ”
Ye Fangfei smiled lightly, didn't answer, didn't say what her family was doing, and changed the topic.
"Qin Lao is half of my master, although I haven't formally studied with him, but I actually learned the piano from him, since you have entered his master, we are also half of the same school."
Ye Fangfei suddenly thought of this stubble.
What happened tonight was a little dramatic.
"It seems that you still can't escape the life of your junior brother?" Lu Zhou joked.
Ye Fangfei pursed her lips, "......"
How does this conversation sound familiar?
Oh...... Come to think of it......
It's really convincing.
Sure enough, Lu Zhou's next sentence was: "Senior sister." ”
Ye Fangfei: "......"
Lu Zhou noticed her expression and couldn't help laughing.
At this time, another special car she arranged to pick her up had arrived.
She pointed to the car they were in and said, "Separate, you tell the driver where you are, and he will take you back." ”
Lu Zhou did not refuse her arrangement and thanked her.
"You're welcome, junior brother."
Ye Fangfei opened the door and bent down to sit in the car.
Lu Zhou: "......"
The two of them got into different cars and ran in different directions.
On the way back to her home, Ye Fangfei remembered tonight's incident, she smiled, she really didn't expect to bring Lu Zhou to meet Qin Lao this time, he could be directly taken by Qin Lao and wanted to be accepted as an apprentice.
On a whim, she took out her mobile phone and sent a message to Wang Yanhua: [What are you doing? ]
It didn't take long for the message to be sent out and it was replied.
Wang Yanhua: [??? ]
Wang Yanhua: [On a sweet date with my wife, why did you suddenly find me and want to eat dog food?] ]
Ye Fangfei: [Picking nose.GIF]
Ye Fangfei: [You say, if I ruin your dating mood, will my sister-in-law hate me]
Wang Yanhua: [You can't destroy it, I can only tolerate my wife in my heart]
Ye Fangfei: [smiling face.GIF]
Ye Fangfei: [Your master announced tonight that he will accept new apprentices]
After the news was sent, there was silence for a long time.
Wang Yanhua: [??? ]
Wang Yanhua: [I haven't heard the news, where did you get the fake news?] ]
Ye Fangfei: [No thanks, I just came out of Uncle Qin's house]
Wang Yanhua: [......]
Wang Yanhua: [Really?] ]
Wang Yanhua: [Who?!] ]
Ye Fangfei: [It's the little male star you call me hot!] ]
Wang Yanhua: [??? ]
Wang Yanhua: [!] ]
Wang Yanhua: [Why is he?] ]
At this point, Ye Fangfei deliberately didn't reply to him, and hugged her mobile phone and snickered.
Well, she admitted, sometimes she's pretty bad.
Then, Wang Yanhua on the other end of the phone was going crazy, he was really not in the mood for a date, and then contacted Song Yi.
Wang Yanhua: [Have you heard about the master's apprenticeship?] ]
Song Yi: [??? ]
Song Yi: [I haven't heard of it, who does the master want to receive?] ]
Wang Yanhua: [I don't remember what my name is, it's the male star who went on the love show with Ye Fangfei!] ]
Song Yi: [I don't know, which onion?] The piano is amazing? ]
Wang Yanhua: [I don't think so!] I've seen some clips of him playing the piano, and that's it. The master hastily accepts apprentices, so he is not afraid that the evening festival will not be guaranteed? ]
Song Yi: [Where did you get the news?] ]
Wang Yanhua: [Ye Fangfei just told me]
Song Yi: [She deliberately tricked you and let you spread rumors about her some time ago]
Wang Yanhua: [......]
Wang Yanhua: [It's possible, she didn't reply to me when I sent a message, and I didn't answer the phone]
Song Yi: [I'll ask the master another day]
Wang Yanhua: [Suddenly it feels impossible to be true]
Wang Yanhua: [If it's true, I'll have to meet him in person]
