Please, come home and practice the piano

96. Chapter 95. What is a Piano Ensemble
Hearing the news of Mr. Tian's illness, the friends who were sitting in front of the piano looked at each other in blank dismay, all with different degrees of surprise.

Ang Lee looked at his watch, there were still 3 minutes before the rehearsal started.

With the last child short, his eyes fell on the empty right half of the first piano.

The child who hasn't come yet will be the last part without accident.

Just then the classroom door was pushed open again.

A thin girl with short hair and black pants walked into the classroom through the noisy discussions of parents in the corridor.

A hint of surprise flashed across her blank expression when she saw Li An.

The child's expression can't deceive anyone, the child gave him the feeling as if seeing him very much, how to describe that look
Li An was thinking about it when Old Dong pointed his head at the door and waved to him.

"Little Li."

"Everyone sit down and get ready."

Li An said and walked over.

Old Dong entered the room and whispered a few words in Li An's ear.

"No problem, parents are always welcome to attend my rehearsal class."

Li An's voice was not too loud, just enough for the parents outside the door to hear.

Old Dong grinned when he heard the words "rehearsal class", thinking that you still know how to do it.

The two smiled at each other.

"Director Dong, let me get to know the children first. Please find someone to bring some more stools. We don't have enough stools in the classroom."

After finishing speaking, Ang Lee turned around.

Facing the eight little faces with different expressions, he cleared his throat, "Hi everyone, let me explain to you first."

"Because Mr. Tian suddenly had a little physical condition."

"From the next until the end of our show, I will accompany you to rehearse during the period."

"My name is Li An, you can call me Teacher Li from now on."

At this moment, a group of small blue characters floated in front of Li An's eyes.

[Che Lin's teacher-student index has risen to 35]

Li An was taken aback.

Che Lin.

Che Lin.

Che Lin.

He remembered that the list of potential teachers and students had been completely changed after the last stage assessment.

A name named Che Lin appeared. If he remembered correctly, the other party's teacher-student index should be 27 points.

Scanning the eight children in front of him again, he already knew who they were.

"Come and introduce yourself, students.

"Teacher, my name is Chen Yutong."

"Teacher, my name is Marco."

"Teacher, my name is Xu Mengya."

"Ms. Li, my name is Huang Ruyi."

"Mr. Li, my name is Zhang Tianlai, and the sound is ten chapters."

"Ms. Li, my name is Chi Yu."

"Mr. Li, my name is Zheng Bowen."

Li An's eyes finally fell on the dull short-haired face that entered the classroom at last.

moment.

"Mr. Li, my name is Che Lin."

Li An remembered this immature and slightly hoarse voice.

Ang Lee took a pencil to write down the names and parts of each child, and then the rehearsal began.

"Have you practiced since you went back yesterday?"

"Yes!" "Practice!"

The two voices go hand in hand.

When I met Ang Lee for the first time, I believed in the little angels for the time being.

At this moment, an academic teacher opened the door and asked in a low voice, "Excuse me, Mr. Li, I still need some stools."

Ang Lee looked around.

"Six, thank you, Teacher Liu."
-
Li An turned on the video and set up the phone, "Let's put it together first and I'll listen to it."

As soon as he finished speaking, the eight children sat upright and stretched out their hands.

Ang Lee held the score, and the first three bars were a solo of one part.

I saw Che Lin in front of the first piano nodded lightly three times, raised her hand and dropped her fingers to play the introduction melody.

After pressing down firmly, Li An made an evaluation in his heart.

The melody proceeds to the third measure, and the rest of the voices enter at the same time.

Eight people, 13 hands pressed at the same time, the volume of the four pianos came out at the same time, and the rich harmony colors immediately filled the entire classroom.

But it's just rich in color, some of them played the wrong sound, and some of them entered slowly.

After only five bars, the music gradually mixes up.

At this time, the first parent walked in quietly.

Then came the second one.

The third.

the fourth.

Li An counted from the corner of his eye, and seven parents came in, including Old Dong, a total of eight people sat behind him.

Right at the end of the ensemble, there shouldn't be any more piano sounds.

However, because the child in the second voice did not release the sustain pedal, the final chord popped out abruptly.

After the children turned around, they found that their parents were sitting behind them, and some children became nervous unconsciously.

Coupled with the closing mistake just now, the air pressure on the scene was temporarily raised again.

Li An clapped and stood in the middle of the classroom and clapped, instantly becoming the focus of all eyes.

"very good."

After finishing speaking, he turned to the parents, "The children have only been rehearsing for three days, so it's not bad to be able to complete it."

Facing the questioning gazes of some parents, Li An was not embarrassed at all, anyway, he was not the one who arranged it before.

indeed.

Very good is nonsense, and not bad is out of the question.

Music can't fool people, parents are not deaf.

So he had to take this opportunity to explain some things first.

"Did Mr. Tian tell everyone what piano ensemble is?"

"How to play the piano again."

Two questions were raised, and the classroom remained silent.

Ang Lee explained:
"Piano ensemble mainly refers to the performance of one or more musical instruments with the participation of the piano. The common forms are pure piano ensemble and piano ensemble with other instruments."

Paused.

"Pure piano ensemble refers to an ensemble in which only one musical instrument, the piano, is involved. The forms are mostly two pianos, four-hands, six-hands, and eight-hands."

"And our stage organization is bigger."

"Sixteen-hand combo."

As he spoke, his tone did not become serious.

"I can tell you clearly that this is a difficult task."

In a moment he gave a professional explanation.

"From the perspective of stage aesthetics, if each of us cannot establish the same standard in terms of strength, speed, technique, and even structural performance style, then we will not be able to achieve an aesthetic stage performance in the end."

"How to establish a unified performance standard, that is, how to rehearse the ensemble."

As he spoke, his eyes turned to the direction of the parents. From the focused eyes, he felt that many parents listened carefully.

"So how do you rehearse?"

"The most important thing is that each participating member must first complete the individual part of the exercise, which is the premise of cooperation and the basic guarantee for the success of cooperation."

"So I hope all the parents here can take time out of their busy schedules to accompany their children to practice. This program is not only the finale of our piano group concert, but also an important experience in their children's piano learning career. .”

Paused.

"I implore everyone to pay attention."

Li An's words infected a matriarch, "Mr. Li, we just need to accompany the children to practice your orders."

Then the other two parents also echoed.

Li An smiled and nodded to the parents who were talking, then turned around and officially started today's rehearsal class.
-
"Students, please pick up your scores and pens."

Regarding the piano ensemble, Ang Lee has special experience.
