The God of Conducting Starting from Absolute Pitch

Chapter 41 The three major orchestras in Haicheng gather together
Chen Qiu said nothing.

Only when you feel stimulated can you play better music.

And the work "Destiny" is not a particularly peaceful work at all.

The sense of power and unyielding attitude towards fate in this piece requires great concentration to be played.

It may even require empathy.

Therefore, Chen Qiu just smiled at the people behind him and continued to lead them deeper into the concert hall.

I don't know whether it's because they were not ranked before, or because the school wants to keep a low profile, but their position is relatively low.

A corner location of the concert hall.

It's very low-key, and similarly, the acoustics aren't particularly good.

But these are not particularly important things. They are here to participate in competitions, not to listen to music.

So everyone just felt uncomfortable, and there was nothing special about it.

The only thing worth mentioning is that the name of their school seems to have been typed incorrectly, becoming Haicheng Vocational and Technical School of Music instead of Haicheng Conservatory of Music.

Everyone felt helpless when they saw this name.

Although I know I can't be too aboveboard when opening a trumpet.

But what the hell is this higher vocational and technical school?

Isn’t this name too outrageous?
Everyone sat down while complaining, and not long after, other university students around them also sat down in their seats.

The school sitting next to Chen Qiu was a college that Chen Qiu had never heard of.

It seemed that it was their first time participating in this competition and they looked particularly excited.

The leading conductor was still looking around after sitting down.

Soon, he noticed Chen Qiu sitting next to them, his eyes lit up, and he immediately stepped forward to join in the fun and said to Chen Qiu.

"Brother, are you here to participate in the competition too? Judging from your position, you don't seem to be taken seriously."

"I can't help it. After all, this is my first time participating in the competition."

"Hey, we are here for a day trip. We can listen to music for free and sleep. This activity does not restrict you from playing with your mobile phone. It even gives you volunteer hours. Have fun. What works are you playing? Let me see. Did you collide with us?"

"Symphony of Destiny, a very...common piece."

"Holy crap! Did this really collide with us? It doesn't matter, all of us are good at it, so don't feel stressed, hahahaha!"

Chen Qiu smiled and said nothing to the man.

When the man saw that Chen Qiu had stopped talking, he couldn't help but pursed his lips, stood up and changed places with the person on the other side.

After a while, I started chatting with the conductor of another school.

Although Chen Qiu didn't care about these schools, he still pricked up his ears and listened to their chat.

Soon, he understood something.

Just as Wang Hai said, this is a fish pond bureau. The most difficult thing is not the group of fish in the fish pond, but Wang Hai and his group of fish fryers.

At the same time, not every band can be considered a fish fry.

Obviously, although they are called conductors next door, they basically have no conductor role. They play more of a beatmaker role.

It can even be said that they may not even be able to use time. Their time may still follow the orchestra.

Their most important role is to swing small wooden poles on the stage and dance with everyone.

So their mentality was very relaxed and they just came here to play. Some people even started to rub the screen of their mobile phones behind them.

Therefore, after Chen Qiu listened to a few sentences, he turned his attention away from this group of people and waited for the start of the game.

At almost ten o'clock, the concert hall was already full of people, and the venue was buzzing with people, as if they were all looking forward to the next game.

This commotion continued until the lights on the stage went out and several judges walked out from behind the stage.

click!
The center stage light falls on the true center of the stage.

The host came to the crowd with a microphone and spoke to them.

"Everyone, please be quiet. The National College Student Art Exhibition, Haicheng Station, is about to begin. The first band, Eastern Normal University, has been prepared in the background. I will introduce to you the people who came to participate in the competition today. Teacher." Everyone's voices gradually decreased, and the group behind them who were rubbing their cell phone screens also muted their phones.

After seeing everyone was quiet, the host nodded and said.

"The first is the conductor from Haicheng Symphony Orchestra, Teacher Zhao Yi!"

Wow!
applause!

A middle-aged man with some gray hair, but very energetic, took two steps forward from the stage and nodded slightly to everyone.

Chen Qiu looked at that person and silently took that person into his heart.

Is this Zhao Yi? Ranked first in Haicheng and the top three top orchestra chief conductors in the country?

According to Wang Hai, he had come into contact with this Zhao Yi back then, and the original owner's father had also come into contact with this man.

At first, he thought that this person should be a relatively young person, almost like Wang Hai. .

But he didn't expect that this man's hair actually looked completely white.

This hair, and the wrinkles that appear on the side screen.

No matter how you look at this person, he is at least in his fifties, and may even be in his sixties.

Definitely not a young man.

The host on the stage did not take care of Chen Qiu's emotions.

After he introduced Zhao Yi, he immediately continued to introduce the other judges to everyone.

In addition to Zhao Yi, Chen Qiu knew two other people.

Wang Hai, because he was a teacher, did not participate in conducting. He probably handed over the orchestra to the students of the choral conducting department after he was almost done conducting.

The other one is a full professor in the Conducting Department of Haicheng Conservatory of Music, named Qian Jin. Chen Qiu has met him before as a teacher at the school, but they have no friendship with him.

In addition to the two of them, Chen Qiu met the chief conductor of the third orchestra ranked among the top three in Haicheng.

Haicheng City No. 1 Band.

This band is funded by Haicheng City itself and includes retired military band members. In a sense, it can be regarded as a national team, and its strength is not bad.

The chief commander seems to be a retired soldier. He has a very upright body and a military demeanor.

The main target audience is not the ordinary people. Their promotion to the top three depends on their occasional external performances.

No one knows the specific strength, after all, the sample size is too small.

All I can say is that the few external performances were pretty good.

At this point, all the top three orchestra chiefs in Haicheng have gathered here.

This also represents the highest level of Haicheng Symphony.

In addition to these people, some other judges are leaders of certain university music schools and people from the Ministry of Education.

The host only gave a brief introduction and did not introduce much.

After introducing all the judges, the host asked everyone to return to their seats, and then spoke to everyone.

"Next, let us welcome the Eastern Normal University Symphony Orchestra and do the opening ceremony of the orchestra!"

After the words fell, applause roared again.

As the backstage door opened, a group of students wearing black suits and bearing the medal of Eastern Normal University walked out of the back door in unison, carrying their own instruments.

They didn't make any unnecessary movements. Everyone walked to their own positions accurately, then sat down in their own positions and waited quietly.

After there was no sound in the concert hall, the person sitting on the first violin stood up, bowed slightly to everyone under the stage, then looked at the orchestra, looked at the position of the clarinet in the orchestra, and nodded to him.

The standard note A of the clarinet sounded instantly at this moment, followed by the orchestra's orderly and fast tuning.

The sound of the instruments reaches maximum harmony at this moment.

Faced with such a scene, Wang Hai, who was sitting on the other side of the orchestra, couldn't help but grinned, looked at Zhao Yi beside him, and spoke to him.

"Chief Zhao, what do you think of my student orchestra?"
