The God of Conducting Starting from Absolute Pitch

Chapter 51 Coach! I want to learn music!

You just like it?
Where do you get so many reasons to like it?

No need for any reason to like it!
Qin Xian didn't know why, but he suddenly laughed.

I kept trying to make amends for myself. First, I asked myself to finish playing the Symphony of Destiny, and then I asked myself to finish playing the Mendelssohn Concerto in E minor. After completing these, I dropped out of school.

Then I spent the entire day worrying about not playing well.

Every day I kept talking about leaving and not continuing to study music here.

But can he really walk away?

Obviously, he can't.

He couldn't live without music.

Music is everything to him.

It was like this when I was in the previous band.

When there was a problem with the orchestra, he habitually wanted to lead the orchestra, and even played a big trick in the end.

He felt that it was just his stress reaction and that he just didn't want to fail. Then he kept making excuses for himself, telling himself that he no longer liked music and there was no need to continue learning.

But now, he suddenly discovered.

Everything before was false, he still loved music.

He had always been thinking about pleasing other people and making others satisfied with himself.

Please his teachers, please his parents, please Chen Qiu, please everyone who has demands on him, and satisfy their expectations of him.

But in the end, it just came to nothing.

Now he finally understands.

Those are all fake.

Go out of your way to please other people.

The most important thing about music is just one thing.

That is to please yourself.

Just make yourself happy, completely immerse yourself in the music, and enjoy the music.

This is the most important!
From the first time I came into contact with the violin.

to my first exposure to classical music.

Then came my first contact with the band.

What I was thinking about at that time was never to please anyone.

Learn, play, and collaborate on your own.

Just because I like it!
Qin Xian woke up from a dream.

The body that was originally slightly bowed could not help but lift up at this moment.

He no longer looked at Chen Qiu, nor at the teachers in front of him.

He just looked forward, at the audience seats in front of him.

Chen Qiu told himself that he could play however he wanted without any problems.

He is the conductor and he will help him put everything in order.

Therefore, I only need to play the piano.

You just need to make your own music according to what you like, according to what you prepare, and according to the way you want!

hum!
The strings in Qin Xian's hand vibrated loudly.

The music that originally seemed particularly calm, like a blank piece of paper, felt like it had been hit by countless paints at this moment.

The strings in Qin Xian's hand are like a paintbrush, and he splashes ink on them, writing his own music.

The music shoots out like fireworks, releasing brilliant colors!
Everyone looked at him involuntarily.

At this moment, he has become the most dazzling presence on the stage.

In the distance, Zhao Xi, who had just returned to the auditorium, looked at the strings and couldn't help but be stunned, and then smiled softly.

"As expected, this is Qin Xian. Although he is becoming more and more autistic, his skills and expressions have never fallen behind. His current performance really did not disappoint me!"

Speaking of disappointment, he glanced at Chen Qiu thoughtfully, only to find that Chen Qiu seemed to be looking at them too.

It seemed like everything was under his control.

The piano accompaniment art instructor student next to him had his eyes widened and whispered in disbelief:
"Holy crap? This is Qin Xian? What the hell is this? Is he turning it up? Are you still playing violin in the second stage? Wasn't it so boring before? Why is he..."

"Because he suddenly remembered why he likes the violin."

Zhao Xi sat on the chair, crossed his legs, and looked at Qin Xian and nodded slowly.

"Back then, he entered university as the top violinist."

"It is true?"

The art director student also sat next to Zhao Xi.

He glanced at Zhao Xi and then at Qin Xian, his face dull.

"What the hell? I always thought you were number one, Mr. Zhao, but it turns out he is number one? This is a bit scary, but why was he so bad at it before?"

"I can't help it. He was trained with the highest requirements. Probably the teacher in the school only noticed his talent and not his mentality. He kept pushing hard and blew up his mentality. I don't know the specific situation. Anyway, His mentality was blown.”

Zhao Xi shook his head, looked at Qin Xian with great emotion, and said slowly.

"But now, with Chen Qiu's help, everything should be over."

Yes, everything is over.

Qin Xian was completely immersed in the music, and the smile on his lips could not be wiped away.

Mendelssohn's Concerto in E minor is the most beautiful violin concerto, and it is also the concerto that most values the performer's own construction of musical beauty.

The music Qin Xian constructed at the beginning had no sense of beauty at all. Just listening to it made you not want to continue listening to it.

But now, the music in his hands is extremely graceful.

There is absolutely no way you can take your attention away from Qin Xian's music.

Qin Xian's eyes couldn't help but close during his performance.

He no longer pays attention to everything, he just plays the music he wants seriously, puts all his attention on his ears, listens to everything in his ears, and appreciates the music he plays.

Then he couldn't help but laugh.

Chen Qiu is very strong.

Qin Xian knew from the beginning that Chen Qiu was very strong, but he had never felt it so deeply as he does now.

There was no need for him to prompt or say anything.

He only needs to play his piano well, and Chen Qiu can make up for everything in the orchestra.

Countless details were piled up in Chen Qiu's hands, making him feel particularly comfortable.

At this point, he finally understood what Chen Qiu said to him at the beginning.

Don't think about anything else.

See yourself in music.

If you like classical music, you will never get tired of it.

Play with confidence that he will have your back.

……

Everything passed through his heart, and his mood couldn't help but calm down.

He just wanted to play music, just wanted to make the music more beautiful.

After all, he has Chen Qiu's support behind him.

No matter what he does, Chen Qiu can give him corresponding feedback.

therefore……

Qin Xian's hands rubbed the strings hard, and the sound was like singing and crying.

The softness of the music almost filled the entire concert hall.

At this moment, not only Zhao Xi and Gang Ban were shocked, but the teachers in the school were also stunned.

They never imagined that they would be able to hear such a performance in such a final exam.

They even feel that they should be in a scene similar to the Menuhin International Violin Competition now, rather than in a school.

They looked at the transcripts in their hands and even hesitated for a while.

They don't know what score they should give this work.

This kind of performance was enough to break through the boredom Qin Xian showed at the beginning.

They even made them willing to give Qin Xian a perfect score.

only……

They didn't know what Qin Xian's teacher would choose.

They looked at Qin Xian's teacher, only to find that Teacher Qin Xian had put down the pen in his hand and looked up at the ceiling of the concert hall.

He seemed to have noticed everyone's gaze, and couldn't help but turn his head to look at everyone. After sighing softly, he smiled helplessly.

"It's pretty good, right?"

"At least to me, he feels much better than when he first entered school..."

"only……"

Teacher Qin Xian did not continue. He shook his head and wrote Qin Xian's score on the report card in front of him.

After the others looked at each other, they also gave Qin Xian a score.

Then he leaned back on the chair behind him in unison.

They began to enjoy the music Qin Xian brought them.

The room became extremely harmonious. Not only the people inside the house, but also the people outside the house were listening to Qin Xian's performance inside the house. They even couldn't help but approach the door and look at Qin Xian curiously.

When they saw that it was Qin Xian himself who was playing, everyone's pupils couldn't help but widen a little, with a hint of disbelief.

But none of them spoke, disrupting the music created by Chen Qiu and Qin Xian.

They just stood quietly at the door, listening to the two people's performance, and feeling the beauty of Mendelssohn's E minor concerto, one of the four major violin concertos in the world, that shocked them.

Until the sound of the piano ends.

As the last chord fell, the concert hall exploded.

Countless rounds of applause.

The applause of the teacher, the applause of the surrounding students, and the applause of Chen Qiu all mixed together.

Qin Xian felt as if he was living above the clouds for a moment.

His steps couldn't even touch the ground.

But Qin Xian did not immediately bow to thank the teacher for listening. Instead, he turned to look at Chen Qiu behind him who was packing up the music scores, and bowed vigorously.

Then he stared at Chen Qiu and said seriously.

"Conductor Chen Qiu, you are right! Classical music is really interesting!"

"Conductor Chen Qiu, I want to continue learning classical music and join your orchestra. You are right, classical music is really interesting!"

Chen Qiu looked at him with a smile, and did not immediately agree to his request, but asked him.

"So, are you still planning to drop out of school?"

"No more plans..."

Qin Xian shook his head slightly.

He suddenly thought of something, turned to look at the teacher's position, looked at his teacher, and suddenly spoke to his teacher.

"Teacher! I have something to say!"

"Well. Say."

Qin Xian's teacher hummed slightly to show that he heard it.

Facing his teacher, Qin Xian was obviously a little nervous, but he still took a deep breath and spoke slowly.

"I'm sorry, teacher, but I must say that your teaching is not suitable for me."

"Then what?" The teacher's expression did not change at all.

When Qin Xian heard the teacher's voice, he was obviously a little scared and entangled, but he quickly worked hard to overcome the entanglement and continued to the teacher.

“I like classical music, so I hope I can polish the pieces piece by piece slowly, instead of like now, where I just finish memorizing all the pieces, then rough polish them and then prepare for the next piece. Then came the next song, endless works piled up together, making me breathless. Maybe this kind of high pressure is suitable for other people, but it is definitely not suitable for me."

Speaking of this, Qin Xian's previous cowardice came back to his mind. He couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva, and saw the teacher's teeth tremble slightly and opened his mouth.

"So, I guess..."

But he didn't expect that his teacher would speak directly.

"Well, I understand. I will apply to the school. You don't need to come over to take lessons with me in the future. You can just play the way you like."

"Ah?" Qin Xian was stunned. He didn't expect his teacher to be so easy to talk to.

Just when he was about to say thank you, his teacher continued.

"Who will continue to teach you will be decided later. But since you decide to continue learning, then study hard, whether it is a solo or an orchestra, but I must tell you something..."

The teacher's expression was extremely serious and he spoke slowly.

"Although interest is a stepping stone to a career, if you study purely with interest, you will never be able to turn it into your career. If you really want to make this your career in the future, I think you'd better adjust. Think about it."

"Um……"

Qin Xian couldn't help but be stunned when he heard the teacher's words. After being silent for a long time, he nodded lightly.

"Okay, thank you teacher, I understand, I will remember this sentence."

After saying that, he looked at Chen Qiu behind him who had been watching the excitement and said to him.

"Commander Chen Qiu, let's... leave first?"

"Well, let's go."

Chen Qiu smiled at Qin Xian, then looked at the teacher sitting at the top, without commenting on the teacher's words.

He didn't want to refute the teacher's words here.

After he picked up all his music scores, he walked out of the concert hall, Qin Xian following closely behind him.

The two groups of people behind them looked at Chen Qiu and Qin Xian's leaving figures with helplessness and bitterness in their eyes.

Their minds are now filled with the ensemble played by Chen Qiu and Qin Xian, and there is absolutely no content in what they want to play.

Now let them take the stage, and they feel that they are only one step away from being finished.

Chen Qiu saw their expressions and just smiled and gave them some encouragement before leaving directly.

When he was almost gone, Chen Qiu suddenly spoke to Qin Xian.

"What do you think of what the teacher just said? It's a topic that won't last forever."

"That? That...I don't know."

Qin Xian followed Chen Qiu and shook his head slightly.

"I don't know. I just want to continue learning music again, but I haven't figured out the future path yet."

"It's okay if you don't think too much about it, as long as you like it and love it."

Chen Qiu smiled, slowed down his pace, and spoke to Qin Xian.

"Remember what I told you at the beginning?"

"Well, I remember, you said... you like classical music very much, and you will always like it."

Qin Xian said honestly to Chen Qiu: "I remembered what you said when I was playing, and then I kept thinking about why I want to play classical music. After thinking about it, I played it like this."

"In that case, I'll say it again."

Chen Qiu looked at the long passage in the distance and said easily.

"I love classical music, and classical music is really interesting, more interesting than anything else.

Because only he can carry my love for music and my thinking about all things. He is extremely profound, so profound that people can study it for a hundred, two hundred, or three hundred years without feeling bored or feeling that they have touched it. Through him.

So I have to keep researching and researching to present the music that I think is the most perfect.

Only in this way will I feel satisfied.

And this is the most important motivation that supports me to keep learning and researching! "

Chen Qiu stopped, looked at Qin Xian behind him, and asked him.

"What about you? What motivates you to continue studying classical music? Is it just love in the first place?"

"I……"

Qin Xian was silent, his eyes intersecting with Chen Qiu's.

This time, he didn't shy away.

He spoke in the same serious tone.

"Yes, I love it too. I like the violin, I like classical music, and I also like the feeling of being in an orchestra, where everyone works together to play a concerto."

"So, can you keep this love? Ten, twenty, thirty, even sixty or seventy years, until your band retires, you will not regret it? This is not temporary, but It’s a lifetime’s work.”

Chen Qiu's words made Qin Xian silent again.

This time, he thought for a long time before slowly raising his head and nodding particularly seriously to Chen Qiu.

"I don't know, but I think I should be able to."

"Since you think you can do it, then it's no problem. As long as you can convince yourself, other people's opinions have no meaning to you! So what you said about your request to return to the Second Group, I agreed!"

Chen Qiu suddenly laughed.

He reached out and patted Qin Xian's back and said to Qin Xian.

"Come on, get out, I have a surprise for you."

After that, he took Qin Xian out of the concert hall.

The sun was shining brightly outside, and many people gathered outside the concert hall.

Qin Xian glanced at it and couldn't help but be stunned.

Almost all of the people present were members of the Haiyin Second Regiment.

He quickly looked at Chen Qiu beside him, only to find that Chen Qiu had returned to the second group and was looking at him with everyone.

As Chen Qiu arrived, everyone immediately said.

"Welcome back! Chief Qin Xian!"

"Chief Qin Xian! You played so well just now!"

"Qin Xian! Let's take our second group and charge again!"
