Please, come home and practice the piano

Chapter 443 143. Cross-dressing and Espionage

"it is good."

Li An readily agreed to Fang Zheng's request.

-

After submitting the nomination certificate, Teacher Fangzheng also made a small request of his own. He asked Li An if he had any arrangements for the afternoon.

Li An asked him what was the matter, and he said that he wanted to communicate with Li An in the piano room.

What to communicate, you play and I sing.

"it is good."

So Fangzheng finally got his wish and fulfilled a small wish in the afternoon.

Ang Lee played the steel accompaniment for him, and he sang for half the afternoon.

He sang happily at the beginning, but later suffered a lot. Li An suffered a lot at first, but later he was able to win the round.

What's the matter?

Ang Lee doesn't have much experience in accompaniment to vocal music, and Fangzheng's repertoire is huge, so Ang Lee can only sight-read the pieces he hasn't played before.

Sight-reading was not a pain, and he could barely cope with changing the key temporarily. What made it uncomfortable was that Fangzheng sang and sang without following the score.

This is too disrespectful of martial arts, Li An even told him, I have never heard this song, let's not play tricks, okay?
Fangzheng said yes, but the song started again halfway through.

Of course Ang Lee couldn't stop it, just kidding, everyone is a professional, who doesn't want to lose face?

If you don't want to do it yourself, don't blame my subordinates for being merciless.

Fang Zheng was about to sing "You Don't Be a Lover Anymore", a classic excerpt from Mozart's opera The Marriage of Figaro.

At first Ang Lee played the prelude for a few bars and stopped, and asked Fang Zheng if this speed was okay?
Fangzheng gave a thumbs up: "Perfect."

it is good.

Mr. Li, who was staring at the score, started from the beginning. Mozart's fragmentary phrases were coherent and light under his fingers.

But as he sang, he found that the speed of the steel companion was getting faster and faster, and it was Li An's intention when he heard it.

Okay.

I will sing as fast as you play, Fangzheng thought to speed up the speed of speaking, and followed the steel accompaniment tightly without losing the beat.

Here, Li An saw that Fangzheng was able to keep up. After two bars, he lifted and lowered his hands and raised two notes directly.

Fangzheng heard that his state was different from the last second. Fortunately, there were only seven measures left, and he was sure of only one.

However, he didn't expect that Li An would raise another half a note before the dot of the highest note, directly forcing him into a very uncomfortable situation.

Fortunately, he reacted fairly quickly. At the point of voice change, he relied on his state to mix up the high note, and then sang the last lyrics all the way to the ground safely.

After the vocal part was over, there were ten bars of accompaniment, and Ang Lee gave Fang Zheng a round of applause after playing.

"Yes, yes, I can still sing."

Fangzheng stopped pretending, wiped the sweat from his forehead and replied honestly, "I got by."

Li Anle, the traces are not obvious, he didn't ask a question all afternoon, "I always thought you were a low middle school boy when you were talking, you should be a small lyrical boy middle class, right? "

Fangzheng: "Don't say it out loud, my dream is actually to be a big lyric boy."

Li An suddenly became interested, "Come on, tell me how your baritones are classified?"

In the next 10 minutes, Fangzheng's small class started. After listening to it, Li An corrected his two previous erroneous views.

First, he thinks that the classification of male middle school is completely divided according to the range, but it is not the first factor in the identification of timbre and hair.

Second, he thought he was a baritone (the teacher in his hometown told him when he was preparing for the entrance exam), but he was actually a tenor (he believed in Fangzheng's words).

"So I'm a tomboy?"

Li An sat in front of the piano and touched his chin, feeling like he was very powerful.

Fangzheng nodded: "Yes, but the definition given to you by your previous vocal music teacher is not wrong, but if you are my student, from your vocal range to timbre, I can put you in tenor, or I can put you in For men, there has never been an absolute statement about the division of voice parts."

"From my experience, you can be classified as a male high school, but I suggest you sing male high school."

Ang Lee: "How should I say it?"

Fang Zheng: "It is always safer to be a tenor who can sing tenor than to be a tenor who can sing tenor."

It makes sense for Li An to take a closer look, but it doesn't matter if he didn't say it completely, "In the future, when you have time, you can help me practice my voice and teach me how to sing bel canto. It’s basically the same as a whiteboard, and I like Verdi’s excerpts.”

Fangzheng was shocked: "How dare you like it, there are not many Verdi baritones in the whole country."

Li An pouted: "Oh, I'm just singing for fun, the point is interest."

Fangzheng hehe: "That can't be sung either."

Li An frowned: "The kind that Teacher Fang can't teach?"

Fangzheng thought for a while: "If you say that, you can give it a try, but"

Li An directly interrupted: "Don't let it go, let's find half a day a week in the future, I will play the piano for you, and you will teach me to sing, will there be a deal?"

Fangzheng bared his teeth: "Deal."

The deal was concluded, and the smiles of three-hundred-jin children appeared on the faces of both of them.

"That's it." Li An stood up and stretched, picked up his phone and sent a message to Chen Xuan.

Fangzheng: "What did you sing in the entrance exam?"

Ang Lee: "Carlo Muben."

Fangzheng: ".This pronunciation is very sexy. Do you still remember the lyrics?"

Li Ang: "I remember a few words, why?"

Seeing Fangzheng walk to his place and sit down, "It's better to hit the sun than to choose the day, let me listen first."

Li An hurriedly waved his hands: "Don't."

Fangzheng: "Huh? My steel buddy can play well."

Li Anhan: "That's not what it means. I'm off work now. Let's go to another day. Chen Xuan will be here soon."

Just as they were talking, the door of classroom No. [-] was pushed open. Seeing that the two of them hadn't finished playing, Chen Xuan said, "Sorry, you guys continue."

"Wait a minute, Teacher Chen," Fangzheng yelled, "Want to hear your boyfriend sing the bel canto?"

"Huh?" Chen Xuan stopped and turned around, with a mischievous smile on her face, "I really want to."

Clap!
The door of classroom four was closed.

When Chen Xuan came, Li An was even more timid: "Don't make trouble, don't make trouble, I haven't sung for many years."

He's really a little shy, it's not playing the piano.

Chen Xuan encouraged: "Oh, what's the matter, you sing, I've never heard it before."

Fangzheng: "Hey-hey-."

Unable to withstand Chen Xuan's pleading gaze, Li An rubbed his brows, "Okay, no video, no laughing."

After Chen Xuan promised that he would never laugh, Fangzheng's steel companion rang.

Indeed, as Fangzheng said, the playing is not bad.

Ang Lee was also recalled by the prelude a lot of memories, take a deep breath, relax, he reminded himself, followed the melody and walked to the piano, he put one hand on the piano, raised his fan with the other, and sank to his dantian.

Before the prelude ended, Li An hesitated whether to open his mouth or not.

In the end, he still snapped.

"Push."

With just one sentence, Chen Xuan couldn't hold back anymore.

Her ha ha ha ha voice overwhelmed the sound of the piano and "singing" and spread from the crack of the door into the corridor. Everyone who heard it could be infected by the laughter and wanted to find out.
-
"You sang really well!" Chen Xuan was serious!
"You sang really well!" Fangzheng was also serious!

"Hey, I am famous in my life." It doesn't matter whether Li An believes it or not.

Fangzheng and Chen Xuan: "Hahahahaha——"

After the two had laughed enough, Li An asked Fangzheng, "I sang comfortably in this place just now, did you play it according to the score?"

As he spoke, he sang the sentence just now, "Here."

Fangzheng: "A little change."

Li An nodded: "Understood."

Fang Zheng: "The plasticity between the human voice and the piano is the highest, because the voice is the most flexible instrument."

get off work.
-
In the elevator, Li An was still thinking about Fangzheng's last sentence, and he learned it.

In terms of pure piano skills, Fangzheng has no way to compare with him in any aspect.

But when it comes to vocal accompaniment, he is not necessarily better than Fang Zheng.

It is an experience that he does not possess to point out the other party just right.

From here, he realized that the so-called piano art direction and piano performance are really two different things.

He played this afternoon, but it was worth it.
-
After half an hour.

Less than one stop away from Rongcheng Conservatory of Music, Li An and Chen Xuan got out of the car to buy something, then walked to the back door of Rongcheng Conservatory and entered the campus.

After all, it was hot, and the campus was filled with a strong hormonal atmosphere.

The girls walking towards me were getting whiter and more delicately dressed than the other.

"Children born after 00 really dare to wear it." Chen Xuan sighed.

Ang Lee: "You can wear it too."

Chen Xuan: "That's right, you can wear it too, you can even sing in it, hahaha——"

Ang Lee: ".Pervert!"

The two walked through the cafeteria, and the sound of senior brother Li sounded behind them.

Li Ang turned his head, and it was the middle-aged boy in the Old Pei Quartet, holding a piano case in his left hand and a pancake fruit in his right.

He asked: "Are you in a hurry to grab a seat in the piano room?"

The boy in Zhongti complained: "Teacher Pei has just announced that there will be a rehearsal in the evening. How dare I delay it. Senior brother, are you coming tonight?"

Li An didn't receive any notification from Lao Pei, so he guessed that Lao Pei would be practicing string music alone tonight, "It's none of my business, you guys work hard."

"Hey." The Zhongti boy said with a look of despair on his face, "I didn't practice the piano much on May [-]st, so I'm going to die tonight."

Li An laughed: "Think of a way to get along."

Hey, that's the only way to go, "Goodbye, Senior Brother and Senior Sister," the boy Zhongti said and walked quickly towards the theater building.

Chen Xuan looked away, "Is that teacher Pei very fierce?"

Li Ang: "It's not a fierce question, it's like this, this time he said that your place is wrong and not strong enough, you change it, he said, this is right."

Chen Xuan answered: "The next rehearsal, you are strong, but he said you are not weak enough."

Li An turned his face: "Have you experienced it?"

Chen Xuan: "I also met such a teacher when I was rehearsing the woodwind quintet in my sophomore year. He had a very temper."

Praying for quartet rehearsal tonight.
-
As soon as Lao Wei's fish came out of the pot, the door rang.

Li An said that he would come over with Chen Xuan tonight, so he came back after class in the afternoon and started preparing dinner.

The couple cooked four dishes and one soup, and the younger couple chatted with them until after nine o'clock in the evening.

During the meal, we talked about the May Day holiday, about work, about health care, about the upcoming Rongcheng Cup, and naturally we also talked about Xiao Chelin.

Old Wei also asked where Che Lin went to junior high school, Li An said to Shipo, Old Wei nodded, "It's good, it's pretty close to your place."

Li Ang: "Yes, I plan to give her two classes a week after she is in junior high school."

Old Wei: "Have you communicated with the child's parents?"

Ang Lee: "My family fully supports me."

Old Wei: "Then you take care of it."

Li Ang: "Well, at that time, you will have to help me check some links."

Old Wei: "If you have any questions, you can just bring your child here."

Li An filled Wei Sanwan with wine, "Teacher, have you heard of Mr. Huo's student? The child's surname is Zhao. What is Zhao?"

Old Wei looked at Li An's face: "Zhao Mengtian, why, are you here to spy on information tonight?"

Li An was also polite: "That's necessary, as far as the relationship is concerned, Che Lin called you master."

Old Wei grinned for a while, then put away his smile: "Listen to me, don't tell your children what I said to you before the game."

Then, "I've heard about Huo Xiaodong's student. He's not as talented as Che Lin, but his foundation is worse than Che Lin's. So the two children have to watch how they perform at the competition."

"What you need to pay attention to is the student in Lao Chen's hand."

Ang Lee: "Cai Fengnian."

Old Wei: "Have you seen this kid's video on the Internet?"

Ang Lee: "I've seen it."

Old Wei: "Did you play well?"

Ang Lee: "It's really good."

Lao Wei: "The first time I saw him, Lao Chen brought him to my house and talked to me about Mozart. Keeping the child's progress all the time, let me tell you the basic skills, in the whole city of Rongcheng, he has no opponents for children of this age."

Li An didn't expect Teacher Wei to have such a high evaluation of Cai Fengnian, "Teacher, who do you think is more talented, he or Che Lin?"

Old Wei thought for a long time: "It's hard to come to a conclusion now, we have to wait until they are older and more mature. Right now, Che Lin is much worse than Cai Fengnian overall."

Quite a bit.

Even though these words came from the teacher, Li An was somewhat unconvinced.

It's just a little bit of emotion, objective analysis, whether it's Chen Wenchang's Cai Fengnian or Huo Xiaodong's Zhao Mengtian, they have followed the teachers of the conservatory of music since they were young, and Che Lin's first piano teacher has now switched to selling insurance .

So the three children were not on the same starting line.

But what about this?
Old Wei saw that Li An was a little uncomfortable, and comforted him: "You understand the truth, but in reality, as teachers, we must level a bowl of water."

Li An sighed, "You are right."

Old Wei: "I'll tell you another piece of information. Last month, Old Chen accompanied Cai Fengnian's family to Yanjing."

Chen Xuan clearly grasped something: "The high school attached to Hua Yuan?"

Old Wei: "Yes, I passed the exam."

Ang Lee said with emotion: "It's amazing, it's amazing."

Old Wei smiled: "However, among those who were in the same class as you at the High School, how many of them play better than you?"

Li An: "That's because I met you."

Old Wei scolded with a smile: "You son of a bitch poured me cheating soup again."

Li An said seriously: "Without you, I wouldn't be where I am today."

Old Wei could hear the sincerity in his tone, so he said casually, "So, practicing the piano is a slow skill. The competition is not about who can run fast, but who can go far in the end. In this competition, Che Lin Don't be in a hurry, let alone you, understand?"

Li An sighed in his heart: "Understood."

Raising a glass to toast, the master and apprentice touched one.

Seeing that the two were talking about the same thing, Liang Huilan said, "Okay, let's not talk about work, An An, eat more and drink less, he is willing to drink and you let him drink."

As he said that, he turned around and picked another piece of fish for Chen Xuan, with a bit of blame in his eyes, "Xiao Chen, you should eat more too, this time you have lost a lot of weight compared to last time, have you been busy recently?"

Chen Xuan smiled sweetly: "Thank you, Mrs. Mistress~ I've been doing well recently, quite fulfilling, hehe."

Liang Huilan likes Chen Xuan, the more she watches and listens, the more she likes it.
