Please, come home and practice the piano

Chapter 733 430. Journey Notes : Hidden Harmony, Final Chapter of Monologue [Part ]

As soon as the second movement began, the music cast a gray tone on the scene.

Seven teachers and students played neatly in unison in different registers. Their finger movements were consistent and the rhythm of playing was consistent. However, the fusion of sounds that should have appeared in each register did not appear.

It seemed that only the bass range was superior to all other sound ranges in the scene, and the audience's eyes gradually focused on the piano in the rear right.

Different from the indistinguishable source of sound in the first movement, in the quiet second movement, everyone can clearly feel that the deep sound of the piano at this moment comes from Che Lin's fingers.

As if deliberately imitating the plucking effect of the bass, Che Lin touched the keys with her fingertips, supplemented by a little push of her arms, three-joint swipes and a push and pull at the moment her fingers touched the keys, which made her play the bass sound. The grain is delicate and yet blunt at the same time. The auditory shape is full of string effects, mixed with a layer of fresh and overflowing piano charm.

The bass part under Che Lin's finger leads the other parts forward little by little at this moment, controlling the inner motivation of the music.

The feeling of the music also gradually changes in the subtle changes of the harmony, just like the rose flower swaying slightly in the wind and lowering its head at the last moment.

"when--"

Then it faded away, and Xiao Che carefully slid the pressing finger towards the end of the key. It wasn't until she could no longer hear her own piano sound that she slowly raised her hand.

Her task at the beginning of the second movement is accomplished.

At the same time, the teacher sitting opposite her also stopped her hand.

At this moment, a long and melodious melody took over the music, and the eyes of the children in the audience suddenly focused on Sister Ji Yang.

Less than a section later, everyone's attention was distracted by the sound of three pianos on the stage.

Liu Fengrui, Wang Xiaohu, and Yu Xiaobei recited the theme at the same time, and suddenly two intertwined melodies appeared in the music again.

Ang Lee listened quietly, and his voice would rest for thirty-two bars.

Xiao Ji received it well, and the charm of the violin came through. The other three children also entered at just the right volume, and everyone managed to move in and out, no problem.

Marco will definitely be fine for a while, Li An thought to himself, his thoughts moving forward slowly along with the music.

Without the teacher's protection, can the children successfully complete the next thirty-two sections?

The children gave their answers by actually playing.

The two melodies are intertwined up and down, and each is restrained. The tension in the calmness is all reflected in the hedging and reconciliation between the two emotions.

Vivaldi used the soothing and expressive music form of Adagio to give the music more time to show the depth of emotion.

Fabio deeply grasped this point when he made the first version of the arrangement. He brought up the delicacy of the strings, combined with the timbre characteristics of the piano, and changed the most moving melody of the second movement to eight piano parts. A resonant space constructed together.

Based on Fabio's adaptation, Pao Mei once again brought out the delicacy of the strings and reduced the eight parts to four. To a certain extent, it abandoned the grand dynamic resonance, but also transformed the original strings The characteristics of softness and tranquility are highlighted to a greater extent.

When it came to Ang Lee, this emphasis was refined again. During the rehearsal process, he always emphasized to the children that the quiet tune does not represent sentimentality, but a harmonious intersection between notes.

Just as what the audience heard at this moment, the two melodies were always played very softly, as if the spring breeze was blowing and touching them gently.

Tang Qianfeng listened to the two melody lines independently woven by the four children, thinking that only innocent children could play such melodies to the true nature of Vivaldi.

When adults play such lyrical passages, they always give people the feeling of a long drought, with too much fire and too many personal emotions attached to them, causing the music to lose the color it should have.

In Tang Qianfeng's understanding, Vivaldi is a natural singer. His music is full of the sound of blooming flowers, the swaying of branches, and the awakening sound of sunlight.

This is the source of the tranquil beauty of Vivaldi's Adagio.

In fact, before the Four Seasons series of works, which was the inspiration for this harmony, Vivaldi had already begun to put his brushwork on all things in nature.

As described in the sonnet attached to the song, on the grassland with fresh grass, the branches and leaves are rustling and whispering, the shepherd is dozing peacefully, and a dog sleeps at his feet .

It can be said that Vivaldi described this scene vividly.

Vivaldi's violin melody is like a singer telling the story of spring. Every note of the music is full of emotion, making people seem to be able to hear the blooming of flowers, the gentle swaying of leaves, and even the whisper of the spring breeze. It is not only an expression of nature, but also the composer's expression of spring emotions.

Just as Vivaldi himself described in the sonnets attached to the four seasons, on the grassland with fresh grass, the branches and leaves rustled and whispered, the shepherd dozed peacefully, and there was a man sleeping at his feet. Only dog.

The prototype of the other party's musical thoughts can be glimpsed as early as the inspiration of harmony.

The music of the four children may have some flaws, but the flaws are not concealed. He really likes the expressions of the four children here.

And at this moment, a faint sound of piano appeared, causing little ripples in the calm music scene.

The new sound of the piano is not continuous, and it is difficult to detect without listening carefully. Every time it appears, it is a little inadvertent and unexpected.

Tang Qianfeng felt the changes in the harmony, and his eyes once again fell far away in front of the piano on the right side.

The first time he noticed it was because of the little girl playing the bass, and this time he noticed it because of the boy who was raising his hand to press the keys from time to time.

Gradually, everyone discovered that there were some changes in the music, but few people could tell where the changes were.

A light flashed in Professor Martin's eyes.
-

Marco was not too nervous. He was counting the beats in his mind, listening to the music, and raising his hand to press it from time to time.

When the teacher told her about this for the first time, he told her, 'Marco, when you get here, you take over the music. You are the absolute protagonist, even if your voice is the least. '

He didn't understand it at first. No matter how the teacher explained it to him, he couldn't understand it. Although he was embarrassed to tell the teacher, he still wanted to say that sometimes he couldn't hear what he was playing during the ensemble.

It wasn't until the recording day, after he finished recording at the Chengdu Concert Hall, that he heard what he was playing in the recording demo.

In his understanding, those sounds with irregular rhythms are like small screws in a precision instrument. Without these sounds, the instrument is just a beautiful decoration, but it cannot move.

"when."

Another backbeat sound was played softly, and the music trembled again. With throbbing, Marco felt that he had played a little too hard this time.

He shook his head slightly and looked to the side with some uncertainty, only to see Che Lin give him a look of affirmation, which made him feel relieved.

Xiaoche felt that there was no problem with Marco's playing. Although the note just now did sound slightly loud, she sounded reasonable.

Her reference was to connect all the notes played by Marco in this passage into a melody. Although the distance between each note is one bar or more, it is like some notes are hidden, but the car sounds like this It's still a very slow melody.

Therefore, the note Marco just made was just a point in the ups and downs of the melody, and it cannot be said that the volume was played too high.

The music continued to advance, and the quiet church was like a lake blue smeared with sporadic gray.

"teacher."

At the door of the lounge, Tang Xiaoxing looked at the stage and asked, "Is this harmony?"

This question was what Tang Xiaoxing wanted to ask when he first heard his friends from Rongcheng rehearsing.

Boss X: "What do you sound like?"

Tang Xiaoxing answered truthfully: "The harmony changes."

Boss

Tang Xiaoxing understood: "This is the third melody."

Boss X smiled: "Yes, the same thing will happen to our ears."

People can restore the hidden harmonic melody, whether it is horizontal or vertical, even if they only hear a few notes in a piece of music, it is enough for people to make identification.

But some people can fill in the incomplete parts in their minds.

Throughout the music of the Baroque period, when chords jump quickly or fly up and down with the melody, the reflection part can still be completed by the scattered notes left in the mind of the listener's disability. This is Bach's specialty, and it is also Vivaldi's specialty, but in this work, Vivaldi did not use this method.

Fabio also did not use this technique in his adaptation.

Artillery used this method to deepen a simple piece of music played by children, but the difficulty was not increased, and the modification was really good.

Boss X answered a question that most people at the scene could not answer. The final change in the music was brought about by the emergence of a hidden melody line.

The three melody lines go hand in hand like this. The gentle spring breeze is everything in the three melodies, carrying the undertone that accommodates all things.

At the end of the second movement, Ang Lee and Xiao Che returned to the music again.

The seven teachers and students once again played the opening introduction together. When they reached the end, Ang Lee and the car looked at each other. The teacher and students nodded to each other, and the next second they raised their arms together and slowly lowered them, playing the last part of the second movement. A sound.

"when--"

A miniature crescendo, the second movement begins in tranquility and ends in tranquility.

It's like nothing has happened, the brightness is always noticeable, and the stillness always needs to be explored.

The stage fell silent for a moment, making the slight noise in the audience seem a little obvious. Someone in the audience coughed, and Wang Xiaohu wiped his sweat at the same time.

Ji Yang looked at Liu Fengrui, and Liu Fengrui also looked at Senior Sister Ji Yang at this moment.

This was the first independent conversation between Part 1 and Part 3 tonight. The two looked at each other tacitly, and then nodded.

The next second, the two of them raised their hands and dropped the keys at the same time.

"Dang-dang-dang-dang!"

"Dang-dang-dang-dang!"

The two took the lead in playing the final horn, and the powerful descending scales complemented each other in two octaves. The character of the movement was solidly imprinted at this moment.

Two sections later, Li An and Xiaobei moved.

"Dang-dang-dang-dang!"

"Dang-dang-dang-dang!"

On a row of keys, two pairs of hands, one big and one small, formed a second melody and joined the music with a clear gesture.

After another two sections, Marco and Wang Xiaohu moved.

"Dang-dang-dang-dang!"

"Dang-dang-dang-dang!"

At this time, three clear and definite melodies in the music go hand in hand without giving way to each other.

After two measures, a set of deafening bass chords lifted the three melody lines high above the stage.

The music seemed to have reached a climax at this moment, and the temperature of the entire live hall also rose invisibly.

The fierce melodic confrontation is sometimes obscure, sometimes bright, sometimes trembling like sleep, and sometimes sharp in the beautiful progression.

The charm of piano symphony blossomed unabashedly at this moment. The seven teachers and students had different expressions, but their movements were highly consistent.

During each gorgeous fast sound group, in the process of the development of the lead and the concerto, everyone is like the core of the motive.

Li An takes Ji Yang!

Xiaobei takes over from Li An!

Liu Fengrui took over Xiaobei!

Marco takes over from Liu Fengrui!

Wang Xiaohu took over Marco!

"Dang!!"

Xiao Che, who was already covered in sweat, leaned over and hit the keys with both hands again, and a set of chords flew up like a wave!

Repeated sounds, arpeggios, and sixteenth notes were interlaced. Seven teachers and students came and went. The entire hall was covered with a light golden color by the transmission of music!

The children in the audience seemed to be more excited at this moment than the music they heard!

For the first time, this was the first time they felt so close that the piano could release a shocking sound worthy of a symphony.

Professor Anna looked at the stage and prayed in her heart not to go too fast, not too fast. This speed was already very good.

Professor Dumei had to say that compared to last night in the rehearsal room, this group of children had improved again.

Tang Qianfeng was also a little moved. If the integrity of the first movement is attributed to Ang Lee's guidance, and the naturalness of the second movement is attributed to the ingenious musical thinking of the arranger, then the perfection of the third movement is attributed to the high perfection of the seven teachers and students. 's cooperated.

One person raised his hand, and the loud music immediately dropped to a murmur.

Another person raised his hand, and the music burst out with a trumpet of victory.

Every child is like a music conductor, and every moment the music seems to set off waves of ecstasy the next moment.

These are just a bunch of kids.

Don't go faster, don't go faster, Tang Qianfeng said in his heart, his eyes locked.

In the last row of the auditorium, Chen Xuan was holding a mobile phone to take pictures, cheering for the children over and over in her heart.

Under the gaze of pairs of eyes, the movement came to its final conclusion.

At this moment, every child in front of the piano only has the music in front of him and the friends beside him in his mind.

They spared no effort to shed their last sweat, vowing to bring this final movement to a successful conclusion!

Feeling the emotion in the music, Ang Lee had to slightly increase the volume and play a two-handed octave on the backbeat after a break, where there should only be one hand.

The music shook, but it pushed the atmosphere to the final climax again!

In the end, he calmly slowed down the children.

Huh, it's very dangerous. These little guys still need experience.

"Dang! Dang! Dang! Dang! Dang! Dang!"

"Dang! Dang! Dang! Dang! Dang! Dang!"

The theme presentation returns again, but this time there is no repetition of the cycle that the audience expected, as if it has reached the end.

Refuse the dazzling timbre in favor of tenderness, put all the expectations and emotions for tomorrow into your hands, and express all your sincere and beautiful wishes. It seems to be the last self-monologue before the end of summer, and the seven teachers and students come together for the last time. refer to.

"when!"

Hands down neatly.

The place is quiet.

“Wow——————————————————”

The scene burst into applause a second later!

Beside Tang Qianfeng, Tang Xiaoxing's father also stopped his pencil at the last moment.

As the music ended, he finally finished the drawing, then put down his pencil and track list, and applauded along with everyone present.

After a while, he took away his elder brother's playlist, looked at the voices of the seven teachers and students on the stage, and picked up the paintbrush again.
