Chapter 107: Shall I Try It? (1st Update)
Because there were too few scores, they began to separate the scores, one person took one, and Fang Xiu asked Zhou Yan for a pen and paper and began to transcribe the score.
Seeing that Fang Xiu wanted paper and pencils, and others also came to ask for them, Zhou Yan could only search from the house, and finally found seven or eight pens for them.
Fang Xiu had just started copying the score, and Yu Ran had already picked up the violin and started playing.
This piece is not difficult in the first place, and Yu Ran's sight-reading level is high, so it is naturally not a problem for her to play the score when she sees it.
When Yu Ran was playing, the others in Central Yin just left an ear to listen, but most of their attention was still on the score.
Anita Mui, on the other hand, was attracted to the violin as soon as the sound of the violin came out.
Unlike the "Nightingale" they played before, this new piece is not brewing, there is no cover-up, and at first, the sadness comes like a tidal wave, drowning people in it.
People drowning in the tide can only see the glimmer of light underwater, like the flow of time, which makes people trance.
When Anita Mui heard "The Nightingale" for the first time before, what came to mind was the scene of going out for a walk at night and hearing birdsong, but this time, all she thought of was her past unhappiness, family, love, as long as she was unhappy, no matter what it was, it could come to her mind at any time.
It has no specific theme, just the word sadness.
People who don't have a good life are easy to be emotionally aroused by this song, and Anita Mui is obviously not a person who has had a good life since she was a child.
Don't look at her very beautiful now, but along the way, there have been many ups and downs.
Although Anita Mui is the youngest in the family, she is not loved by her parents, and she and her sister are more interested in making money for their brother.
She thought of her father again, thinking that if her father hadn't died early, maybe she and her sister would have lived better when they were young, and her mother wouldn't have been so patriarchal, let alone keep asking her for fraud when she grew up.
……
Because in this song, Zhou Yan didn't match the bamboo flute, so he was more idle at this time.
is also relatively idle as conductor Yu Feng, and he naturally doesn't have to play this kind of temporary practice tune. So they can directly sight-read when they get the score, but the conductor's kung fu is not on this.
So while they were practicing, the two were also chatting next to them.
After chatting for a while, there were some things on Yu Feng's side of the school, so he left first.
After Yu Feng left, Zhou Yan saw Anita Mui sitting alone next to her, and walked over with a smile.
Zhou Yan noticed that Anita Mui put on her sunglasses at this time, which surprised him a little.
Since entering the courtyard, Anita Mui has not worn sunglasses in the house, and she came over today, after Zhou Yan opened the door for her, she took off her sunglasses, and she still paid attention to this aspect.
Zhou Yan noticed that Anita Mui's cup was empty of water again, so he smiled and said, "Miss Mei, let's add some water to you." ”
Anita Mui was originally in a daze, but when she heard Zhou Yan's voice, she came back to her senses and cleared her throat, "Thank you...... But don't call me Miss Mei, call me Amei or Sister Mei. ”
Zhou Yan nodded, "Okay, Sister Mei." ”
He also noticed that Anita Mui's voice was a little wrong, with a little crying.
Maybe it's because I heard "If Love Has Heaven's Will" and I felt it.
This is not surprising, Anita Mui is a singer herself, and it is normal for her to be more sensitive to music than ordinary people.
After adding water to Anita Mui, Zhou Yan looked at the time, it was not early, so he came to Fang Xiu's side and reminded her, "Senior Sister Fang, it's almost time for dinner." ”
Fang Xiu just got a new song, and he was still on the rise, so he was reluctant to let go, so he said, "Senior brother, you go and put the rice in the pot first, wash the vegetables, choose one, call me after that, and I'll cook it in a while." ”
Zhou Yan scratched his head, "Okay." ”
Then Zhou Yan first told Anita Mui that he was not accompanied, and then went to the kitchen.
When he arrived at the kitchen, Zhou Yan rolled up his sleeves and started drying.
At the beginning, as Fang Xiu said, he first washed the rice and put it in the pot, and then prepared the dishes.
But after the dishes were ready, Zhou Yan thought that the dishes were ready, so he simply made the dishes, in fact, many times the trouble of cooking is not the steps after cooking oil, but the side dishes in the early stage.
After the dishes are prepared, the rest is simpler.
There are more people, and there are fewer people who cook rice, so Zhou Yan can only reduce the variety and increase the portion.
Roasted tofu with meat, roasted chicken with potatoes, braised carp, three meat dishes, except for braised carp, roasted tofu with meat and roasted chicken with potatoes are all served on the pot.
There is also pork ribs and winter melon soup, plus two seasonal vegetables, a total of six dishes. The pork ribs are stewed in advance, and the vegetables are easy to fry, just pour them into the pot and pull them a few times.
After the dishes were cooked, Zhou Yan ran to the piano room to greet him.
"Let's eat."
Fang Xiu, who was originally practicing, was stunned when she heard about eating, she had been waiting for Zhou Yan to call her to cook just now, and she forgot about it when she waited.
Fang Xiu hurriedly ran to the living room, saw a table of dishes, and said in surprise, "Senior Brother Zhou Yan, are all these dishes made?" ”
Zhou Yan smiled and nodded, "Hmm." ”
"So you know how to cook."
"I didn't say I didn't know how to cook."
"Then you still ......"
At this time, everyone else also walked into the living room, Zhang Xinning saw the dishes on the table, and said with a smile, "Zhou Yan, you can't hide it, although you haven't eaten it yet, but looking at the color and smelling the taste, it should be no different." ”
Zhou Yan snorted, "I know these things, and I usually learn from Fang Xiu." ”
At this time, Fang Xiu put some food into the bowl, tasted it, and then rolled his eyes and said, "Senior brother, your dish is better than mine, and you still said that you learned from me." ”
Zhou Yan didn't take this stubble, so he was worried that the errand of cooking would fall on him in the future.
Cooking, one or two meals is okay, and even he enjoys it a little, but it's really not good if it's too much.
Of course, Fang Xiu and the others just said that, and they wouldn't really let Zhou Yan cook.
Anita Mui also stayed here to eat at noon, the dishes were not exquisite, but she could also get used to eating.
When lunch was over, Zhou Yan thought that Anita Mui would leave, but she still stayed, looking at her posture, it seemed that she wanted to wait until everyone practiced "If Love Has Providence", and then she listened to the complete performance.
It wasn't until more than three o'clock in the afternoon that everyone really began to practice together, but fortunately, the song was relatively simple, and everyone was a master, so it was quickly grasped.
After practicing for more than an hour, the effect has already come out.
At five o'clock in the evening, Zhou Yan took out the Walkman and asked them to play it seriously, and he recorded it.
But after the recording, Zhou Yan always felt that something was missing.
After listening to the song several times, Zhou Yan finally came to the conclusion that this piece was a little less vocal, and if he could add a little vocals to the main melody, it would increase the sadness of the song.
The human voice is originally a musical instrument, and the human voice is very plastic, very free and expressive when expressing emotions.
Zhou Yan looked around the musicians, and then asked Yu Ran, "Yu Ran, how is your vocal music?" ”
Yu Ran smiled embarrassedly, "The theory is okay." ”
The theory is okay, but the singing is not good.
However, Zhou Yan still said, "You hum me two sentences of the melody of the second paragraph." ”
Although Yu Ran said that she only had a theory, Zhou Yan still wanted her to try it, because Yu Ran's timbre was very good, which was her innate advantage.
Yu Ran nodded and began to hum the melody of the second section.
After Yu Ran finished humming, Zhou Yan frowned, Yu Ran's timbre and pitch were fine, but the breath and support were a little worse, and the effect could not meet Zhou Yan's expectations.
Zhou Yan can sing by himself, but his problem is similar to Yu Ran, because he usually does not have vocal music-related functional training, so he has a problem with breath control.
He can find the pitch, but the pitch is only the first step, and the same sound is completely different for different people.
Just when Zhou Yan was embarrassed, Anita Mui suddenly spoke, "Zhou Yan, why don't I try it?" ”
Zhou Yan looked at Anita Mui unexpectedly, "Sister Mei, are you coming?" ”
"May I?" Anita Mui asked with a smile.
In fact, Zhou Yan thought about letting Anita Mui try it just now, but Zhou Yan didn't mention it, not only because the two are not very familiar with each other, but also because Anita Mui is a professional singer, and this kind of busyness is not easy to mention.
However, since Anita Mui took the initiative to mention it, Zhou Yan nodded, "Of course you can." ”
Zhou Yan thought, anyway, it's just a sample tape, and then find someone else to record the official version later, and there will be no disputes in the future.
Seeing Zhou Yan nodding, Anita Mui stood up, then cleared her throat and began to hum.
In fact, since Anita Mui heard this melody for the first time in the morning, she often hummed it in a low voice, so she was already very familiar with this melody, and she didn't need too much preparation at this time, she just hummed it.
When she started humming, everyone in the room couldn't help but nod.
The professional singer spoke, and it was really different, Anita Mui's control of breath and emotion was very good, and she showed the sadness in the melody at once.
After humming it, Anita Mui herself was still dissatisfied, but Zhou Yan smiled and said, "Sister Mei, it's already good, let them start, let's record it all over again." ”
Anita Mui also knew that there was no point in nitpicking at this time, so she nodded and said, "Okay." ”
Then the musicians began to play, and when the second melody began, Anita Mui's vocals entered.
Zhou Yan nodded his head when he heard it, and sure enough, after adding vocals, the effect of the whole piece was much better, although there were no words, only a simple "ah~", but Anita Mui's voice had a strong sense of telling, which added a lot of color to the melody.
This time the recording was very good, and Zhou Yan stopped after recording it, and he was not ready to record it again.
Just as Zhou Yan was fiddling with the tape, Anita Mui walked up to Zhou Yan and said with a smile, "Ayan, have you ever thought about making this song into a song?" ”
