Chapter 676 Orchestra

On the way to dinner, Yang Jingxing's phone rang, Qi Qingnuo helped to read it: "...Lian Lixin."

Yang Jingxing quickly rushed over to answer: "Hey, Lian Zhi... tell me."

Lian Lixin said: "I took a closer look at the score, and it's very good. Overall, the orchestra did a good job of balancing and coordinating, and the structure is clear, including the four parts. There are no problems. It has already met the requirements for invited works, so it should be said to be excellent.

"

Yang Jingxing said seriously: "Thank you, I hope I don't embarrass you."

Lian Lixin said: "I won't say much about the piano. It shouldn't be difficult for you."

Yang Jingxing: "It's not easy, it's a bit stressful."

Lian Lixin said: "Come here early on Monday and get familiar with the orchestra first... Hearing is false and seeing is believing. Don't be humble and polite when the time comes. Money is spent and you should try to be as efficient as possible."

Yang Jingxing said: "Okay, thank you very much. Goodbye Lian Zhi then."

Seeing that her boyfriend hung up the phone, Qi Qingnuo, who just had nothing to do with her, asked: "How did we discuss it? Are we really going to love music?"

Yang Jingxing's face remained calm and his heart stopped beating: "We haven't discussed it yet. We'll see what happens next."

Qi Qingnuo looked at the traffic lights and said, "My mother said that Zhang Yanhao has a good eye and knows who can help him make money, so being able to read people is the key."

Yang Jingxing hehe: "This is a compliment to me, not to Zhang Yanhao."

Qi Qingnuo looked at her boyfriend and half-smiled: "You are such a genius, even those who are famous can see it and know that you have a bright future, so I suggest you that there is no need to always act grateful. Only incompetent people do that."

Yang Jingxing was suspicious: "This doesn't seem to be a compliment to me."

Qi Qingnuo smiled.

Yang Jingxing looked pale: "Don't be angry..."

Qi Qingnuo: "That's a bit! If I ask for help for other people's affairs, would you feel comfortable?"

Yang Jingxing said harshly: "I'm not asking for help, it's because people appreciate me."

Qi Qingnuo shook his head: "Forget it, sending Buddha to the West... But I still think it is not a long-term solution, so I am too hasty." It turned out that Puhai Philharmonic Orchestra might accept Yu Xinting, Qi Qingnuo discussed it with Yang Jingxing.

The space for a piano player to mix with the orchestra is very small, not to mention that Yu Xinting doesn't have much space herself.

Yang Jingxing: "You think more than me, I should be jealous."

Qi Qingnuo smiled: "If possible, I would do it all."

Yang Jingxing had no choice but to say, "I haven't forgotten what I said the day I returned home."

Qi Qingnuo nodded and his smile became wider: "I know... I am so heavy and have great inertia."



On Sunday, Yang Jingxing worked hard at home all day, because Qi Qingnuo and Nian Qing had arranged to go shopping because they had no works to practice. At this time, Wang Rui resented Yang Jingxing, but she had to pretend to be diligent.

.

On Monday, Yang Jingxing arrived at the base camp of the Puhai Philharmonic Orchestra at 8:30. The location is a little more remote than the Chinese orchestra, and the environment is also a little worse. Although it is an old-fashioned small building, the yard is large and green, but the overall situation is not that exquisite.

The big golden characters on the old gate may be a bit tacky.

There was not even a parking space well planned in the hospital. Yang Jingxing wandered around on the dilapidated asphalt road for half a circle, as if the middle-aged man who was the doorman and the messenger came to ask questions. The people were also warm and friendly, and escorted Yang Jingxing into the building all the way to the entrance of the command office.

.

The interior of the building and office are relatively modernly decorated, a bit more advanced than that of the Chinese Orchestra. Lian Lixin's desk has the look of a big boss, but what is on the desk now is Qi Qingnuo's score. There are many trophies in the wall cabinets

Certificates of awards, some professional books, and more various scores.

There was no need to shake hands or exchange pleasantries and just sit down and start talking. Lian Lixin apologized in advance. He handed over the score to someone else to make way for the parts, which turned out to be inefficient. Yesterday I asked if it was still close, and this morning I asked if it was still close.

It didn't matter. Yang Jingxing had already sorted out the score, so Lian Lixin called for people to quickly print it out and distribute it.

The conductor and piano should first study the score. Lian Lixin was impressed by Qi Qingnuo. Not only did the piece seem flawless, the melody was also quite imaginative, with some inspiration flowing...

Yang Jingxing then asked: "You won't be the one to take command, right?"

Lian Lixin didn't understand: "Huh?"

Yang Jingxing said: "You can just arrange a command for me."

Lian Lixin shook his head: "I'll do it... Of course, I'll follow your ideas."

Yang Jingxing was embarrassed: "That's not what I meant. I'm embarrassed to ask you to accompany me to do such boring things..."

Lian Lixin disagreed: "Why are you bored..."

Speaking of which, when the orchestra rehearsed the so-called symphony of a certain art troupe leader, it was boring. There were basically two parts from beginning to end. The emotional color was very unified and lively from beginning to end, and the whole string strings continued to repeat one phrase.

Playing in unison back and forth...

Looking at Qi Qingnuo's works again, Lian Lixin is confident that the orchestra will at least have no complaints. In addition, since it is a collaboration with Yang Jingxing, most of the Philharmonic musicians are appreciative and have worked with famous domestic and foreign musicians.

The experience of working with performers has also been enriched.

Lian Lixin was taking music seriously and did not treat it as accompanying Yang Jingxing to pick up girls.

After half past nine, someone from the orchestra came to tell Lian Lixin that the scores had been distributed, so Lian Lixin took Yang Jingxing to the rehearsal room.

The double-barreled orchestra has arrived. There are more than 40 people. Some are in their twenties and 50s and 60s, but most are in their 30s and 40s. Everyone has the music in hand, but no one is practicing or watching.

Not much, just chatting in twos and threes or dazing around.

After meeting the conductor and the newcomers, the orchestra members concentrated their attention for a while, and some people looked at Yang Jingxing with friendly expressions, which could be regarded as a welcome.

Lian Lixin introduced louder: "Yang Jingxing, it's your first time to come to our band today, everyone welcomes you."

The musicians applauded gently and peacefully.

Yang Jingxing bowed: "Hello, teachers."

Such a snobbish society, Lian Lixin then only introduced Yang Jingxing to the two principal string players and the woodwind players who were more demanding in the piece.

Although Lian Lixin pointed it out to Yang Jingxing from the front, Yang Jingxing was so polite that he walked over and took the initiative to shake hands and say hello.

Lian Lixin said to the orchestra again: "I have said it before, and I won't introduce it further today... I would like to emphasize that although the performance is not public, we must take it seriously. Everyone cherishes this opportunity to collaborate with Yang Jingxing."

Some of the musicians were serious, some were indifferent, and some were smiling, but no one said anything sarcastic.

Lian Lixin didn't say much nonsense: "Now let's ask Yang Jingxing to sort it out with everyone."

The musicians were a little surprised, but they still watched Yang Jingxing walk to the computer and plug in the USB flash drive. Then everyone looked at the projection screen. Yang Jingxing clicked on the first page of the score of "Heyi Zhuangcheng Piano Concerto" and asked for tempo, ginsto.

.Flute, piccolo, single oboe, bassoon, trombone...the score is densely packed and full, which is completely different from Yang Jingxing's Piano Concerto in G major.

Yang Jingxing looked guilty: "I'm a scumbag in my class, teachers, please be careful..."

Lian Lixin nodded: "Let's get started." The musicians were also ready to pay attention.

Yang Jingxing first introduced the creative background: "This piece was written for the 80th anniversary of Puyin. The title is He Yi Zhuang Cheng. The whole piece can be divided into five parts..."

The background was very simple, but Yang Jingxing started to talk about the essence: "Teachers, please look at the projection, both the piccolo and the flute are B flat..."

These are all nonsense, people will read it, but luckily Yang Jingxing dared to ask: "...So the piccolo teacher will play the first note longer first, and then the other teachers will join in..."

Lian Lixin actually printed out the score to take notes. Is it true that classical music is so poor that a great conductor would be so spineless for such a small amount of money?

The same goes for Yang Jingxing. He couldn't stop asking for it from the beginning. From beginning to end, he didn't miss every part and every group of instruments, as if he had already studied the piece thoroughly.

Yang Jingxing spoke faster and did not emphasize each request too much. However, the musicians and teachers also showed some respect and imitated the conductor and marked something on the score.

Yang Jingxing also said in more detail: "...the trumpet teacher, please give me a stronger expression of this modulation and change of tone. The same goes for when you switch back to a flat."

Still Lian Lixin came: "This should be a kind of excitement, impulse, echoing the color of the piano, reflecting a comprehensive enthusiasm, so you should also pay attention to the small group, so..." In conjunction with his own familiar music for musicians

The gestures seemed to be much more effective than Yang Jingxing's boring explanation, and the musicians nodded one after another.

Yang Jingxing also nodded, but Lian Lixin said: "You continue..."

After spending nearly an hour, Yang Jingxing finally finished sorting out a concerto that lasted about a quarter of an hour with the help of Lian Lixin. Lian Lixin announced that he would rest for a few minutes and prepare to start practice.

The musicians came out of the rehearsal room to drink water or read music scores. Some of them came to get to know Yang Jingxing: "I heard the conductor mention you a few times. I think Chen Qunguan is your senior brother."

Yang Jingxing smiled: "You can calculate it this way in terms of seniority, senior brother."

The musician said: "I played Mozart 482 with him in the spring of last year. I was impressed after just one rehearsal. He played it so well."

Yang Jingxing said: "The teacher often uses his senior fellow students to motivate us."

Another musician said: "I think this piano piece is relatively difficult. Is it intentional in the composition? Haha..."

This is true, in terms of technical difficulty, Qi Qingnuo is not polite to her boyfriend, and this girl is more demanding of artistry, so the difficulty is targeted, so it will be more difficult. If the requirements are high, it will probably make ordinary undergraduates

A performer who is afraid of difficulties and shows off his skills will not take it lightly.

A violinist who went out and came back quickly came to shake hands with Yang Jingxing: "Hello, sorry, I went to the bathroom. Let me introduce myself, my name is Zhou Hongbo, our alumnus, I am from the 93rd World, Professor Ding is my teacher.

"

Yang Jingxing admired her: "I met Mrs. Ding during the school anniversary. She is still in good health."

Zhou Hongbo regretted that he could not go back to see the school anniversary and went out to perform. There are eight alumni in the orchestra, and three of them came today. Zhou Hongbo pointed out the rest to Yang Jingxing or introduced them: "... I have heard about my alma mater for a long time.

I have an amazing junior brother, and I wanted to find a chance to attend your concert, but I didn’t expect you to come today.”

Yang Jingxing flattered: "Senior brother, please take care of me."

Zhou Hongbo smiled: "What I just said was very good, and I didn't embarrass Pu Yin."

Yang Jingxing: "The pressure is so great."

Colleagues seemed to dislike Zhou Hongbo for saying the wrong thing: "If you don't say it well, you won't recognize the alumni, right?"

Zhou Hongbo shook his head repeatedly: "No, no..."
