Chapter 326 Comparison

"After all, it is difficult to reach the level of elegance. Allowing this kind of song to be promoted is a stain on this competition!" Director Wang was the first to stand up and oppose the promotion of "Social Man". His prejudice against rap has not changed from beginning to end. Pass.

Another teacher was helping Fan Ying: "But this is also the first rap song after all. If it is promoted, it will better demonstrate the inclusiveness of Shangyi Music Competition. Besides, the quality of this song is not that bad. It is definitely It’s enough to advance to the next round.”

"That's what I said, but I am clearly opposed to it, but it doesn't matter if I say it alone, you can make the decision." Director Wang saw that Principal Zheng had not spoken, so he said nothing more. No matter how much he talks, it's still a matter of his old man's words. There is no need to waste words, just show your attitude.

Dean Zheng thought for a while and said with a smile: "Give it a chance. In fact, regardless of the genre, the content of this song is quite good.

Besides, isn’t rap quite popular now? Let’s take advantage of the popularity to prevent netizens from calling us a bunch of rigid old antiques. "

Director Wang pursed his lips, but finally did not speak.

Seeing that no one objected, Dean Zheng nodded and looked up at the stage: "After discussion with our teachers, we feel that Fan Ying's song is outstanding and meets the promotion standards!"

Although Fan Ying on the stage looked like he didn't care about anyone before, he must still be very eager to advance. After all, this is a great opportunity to prove his strength and to prove his reputation in rap. But after singing, the teacher didn't act like before. Announcing the results immediately shows that there must be different opinions internally.

He probably guessed who had different opinions. It was no secret in the school that Director Wang despised rap, shouting, barking like a dog, and other common songs.

Fortunately, his rap is not the same thing as those scum in the industry. Although the process is a bit bumpy, the result is good.

"Thank you, teachers." After hearing that she was successfully promoted, Fan Ying felt relieved and her expression became much more relaxed: "Actually, I know that many people are prejudiced against rap, and there are indeed a lot of rat shit in this industry. , but there are still many people who have been working hard to do the purest and best rap. When I came on stage this time, I also wanted to give a voice to these real rappers who have been misunderstood by the public. I hope everyone will treat us like this after listening to my songs. People, keep some respect."

After saying that, he bowed to express his thanks. The students in the audience were quite touched when they heard such heartfelt words, and they all applauded.

After the applause, Principal Zheng said to Fan Ying: "I have ideas and have correct views, but I have to stick to them."

"I will." Fan Yingyan replied firmly.

………………

"Are we almost here?" Ivy asked.

"I'm next." Luo Quan was already preparing to get up and go on stage.

"Come on!" Ivy clenched her fists to cheer her up just like Luo Quan did to her just now.

"Next, we invite Contestant No. 112, Luo Quan, a first-year student from the Popular Vocal Music Department. Her entry is the symphony "Nightingale"! (ps. The author is Yanni)"

Upon hearing Luo Quan's name, the entire auditorium immediately became as noisy as a vegetable market.

"Luo Quan is actually here too? I've never heard of it before."

"It seems like she just revealed on her news feed yesterday that she wanted to participate in the school's music competition, but not many people know about it."

"Isn't this a dimensionality reduction attack? There is no suspense for this championship."

"Not necessarily, you have to listen to the work to know."

"Just because of this name, even if she writes "Mai", I will vote for her!"

"Fan Ying is too miserable. She is about to be compared with Luo Quan. Wouldn't she be defeated immediately?"

"What a bad luck. Why are we next to Luo Quan?"

……………………

Among Shangyi, it can be said that everyone knows the name Luo Quan. Both teachers and students know that there is such a great god in the school.

During the first semester of school, I don't know how many students deliberately stayed on the road between Luoquan's dormitory and the cafeteria, just to meet her by chance. If they were lucky, they could even look into her eyes. Seeing her made people excited. A smile like a spring breeze.

Although it sounds very crazy, it also shows how popular Luo Quan is among the boys in Shangyi.

However, after the incident involving Bai Xie, the school leaders also issued a special order, asking the counselors of each class to warn the students not to always hang around others like flies. After all, they are also studying art, and they are a bit reserved and gentlemanly. .

After this measure was issued, Luo Quan's life became much better, and the number of fans he met on the road plummeted.

In the past, when I went out of the dormitory to have a meal, I had to greet dozens of people along the way, smiling so hard my face would freeze.

However, seeing her less frequently has allowed Luo Quan to maintain a considerable sense of mystery in the minds of her classmates. From the beginning of the school year to now, there are still quite a few students who have only seen her online and have never seen her in person.

It doesn't sound very real that such a big star is actually my classmate.

Luo Quan trotted all the way to the stage, leaving a scent of fragrance behind him. The boys sitting on the roadside took a deep breath, greedily trying to smell Luo Quan's scent.

"Hello, teacher." Luo Quan got the microphone and was polite and obedient.

Seeing Luo Quan, the attitude of the teachers in the audience was completely different from that when they faced Fan Ying just now. They were all smiling, and the wrinkles on their faces were layer after layer. layer.

"Symphony "Nightingale", right?" Only Principal Zheng's expression was the same as before. His expression to all the students was the same: "First talk about the music type, music structure and other elements, and then talk about the creative inspiration."

These things have been firmly imprinted in Luo Quan's mind after exchanging the songs, and she also did her homework before coming here. It seems that there has never been such a form of music in this world.

Luo Quan’s voice is clear and pleasant: “After I re-created this song, I found that it combines the characteristics of many songs, but there is no specific music genre to classify it, so I temporarily call it “New Age Music” ”, where I incorporated electronic music, reformist music, neoclassicism, and charisma.

To put it simply, it is a combination of classical music and modern electronic music, with strong national characteristics. "

This is the first time Principal Zheng has heard of this new world music, but this fusion sounds quite interesting, but he is even more curious about this charisma: "Can you tell me what this charisma is?"

Luo Quan smiled shyly: "My face."

"Um?"

"Um?"

Two "ums", one from the judges and teachers, and one from the students.

Obviously, no one quite understood Luo Quan's explanation. How could her face be related to charisma?

Luo Quan continued to explain: “I have always believed that music is not only a form of hearing, but also a form of vision.

The author can use musical notes to outline a magnificent or beautiful picture for the audience, making people immersed in the scene.

The performers can also bring emotional resonance to the audience through their body language and intoxicated expressions while playing. This is a dual auditory and visual guidance, which is more contagious than a single auditory experience.

Based on my superficial understanding, generally good-looking performers should have an easier time achieving this effect. As for me, it would probably be a little easier. "

The teachers were still thinking, but the students, especially the boys, spoke directly:

"That seems to be the truth? Watching a beautiful woman perform live is more comfortable than listening to a record."

"What's more, it's played by Luo Quan? Even if she stands still in front of her, I still enjoy it."

"With her standing in front of me, how can I still have the time to listen to music?"

"It sounds quite similar to the visual rock genre."

"Appearance matters, isn't Luo Quan's face more pleasing to the eye than those of those who kill horses?"

……………………

Principal Zheng asked: "It is indeed a new music genre, but no matter what, the focus is always on music. Isn't that right?"

Luo Quan nodded: "Of course, no matter what kind of music, it needs to be expressed by melody."

Principal Zheng continued: "Then did you use piano or some other electronic instrument for this song?"

Luo Quan nodded: "Because I am writing about Chinese style, the main subject is the flute, but now I want to play it on the piano, and then I will play the flute when I officially perform on stage. Then there will be a symphony orchestra to perform together."

Principal Zheng laughed: "I'm very confident. I haven't passed the preliminaries yet, and I'm already thinking about the finals."

Although these words sounded crazy, they came out of Luo Quan's mouth so naturally, as if they should be like this.

But think about it, her works have never disappointed. Let alone the finals, even if she said she could win the championship this time, no one would dare to question it.

Enough has been said, no matter what kind of new music, fusion of old and new, or using appearance to inspire the audience, in the end, the work has to speak for itself.

Luo Quan sat on the piano and put his hand on it.

This piano had been used many times before her. Every time it was used, a senior from the student department would wipe it clean with a handkerchief, mainly because she was afraid that the students who would use it later would have mysophobia or something.

Luo Quan doesn't have any mysophobia, and he doesn't need to think about it before playing like other students and just start playing.

Luo Quan's fingers were flying on the keys, and his movements were clean and neat, unlike many piano students who waved their arms like a dancer every time they played.

His facial expression was always a smile, and he never closed his eyes pretending to be intoxicated.

It was now the preliminary round, and she planned to save this trick for the finals. Considering the quality of the song, there was no need for it to be so fancy.

But even if you play it simply, it will still be a beautiful sight in the eyes of others.

Luo Quan was wearing a blue and white plaid shirt today. The two cuffs were rolled up in a circle and a half, exposing his fair wrists just right. His fingers were slender and his nails were bright but not painted with anything. Everything was so fresh. nature.

The music played by such a pair of masterful hands seems so ethereal and sweet, the melody is of an ethereal and lively type, and the piano complements it very well. Under Luo Quan's interpretation, it is simply the ultimate enjoyment.

The judges and teachers finally knew what Luo Quan meant by charisma. Even the most picky music critic could not fault the songs played by such a beautiful girl!

This is indeed a double enjoyment of sight and hearing. Both the music and the performer are as beautiful as a dream.

The performance lasted only more than two minutes, and Luo Quan did not finish the piece. The main reason was that the piece had many parts, including piano, flute, violin and even vocals. If you want a complete experience, She couldn't have done it alone.

Now I only need to give an audio-visual version. Want to listen to the complete version? Let's put her in the finals first.

The other contestants were eager to show off all the highlights of their works on the preliminary stage, fearing that some of them would be missed. Only Luo Quan dared to be so willful and starved the audience and judges.

But she also has such qualifications. When she stopped her hands and stood up, everyone's expressions were full of contentment. This wonderful performance only lasted for more than two minutes, and it was not enough!

As a professional, Director Wang quickly made an evaluation: "There is only piano, so I can't make any judgment on the fusion of old and new you mentioned yet, but in terms of music alone, compared with previous championship-winning works, it is better." And nothing less.

But the name of the song is "Nightingale". I haven't heard the connection with nightingale yet. Can you tell me? "

"I just said it." Luo Quan chuckled: "The focus of this piece is the performance of the flute, that is the soul."

Director Wang suddenly realized: "You mean to use the flute to imitate the nightingale's call? This idea is quite good."

Judging from the smiles on the faces of the judges and teachers, it is obvious that they are quite satisfied with the quality of Luo Quan's composition.

Just like Director Wang's evaluation, this piece excludes the bells and whistles mentioned by Luo Quan. In terms of quality alone, it is even better than the previous champion works.

Is this different from announcing in advance that Luo Quan is the champion?

No.

However, the cut scene still has to go, and the possibility of another peerless genius from Shangyi cannot be ruled out. Of course, the possibility of this happening is so small that it can be ignored.

Luo Quan returned to her seat amid applause. Many classmates kept staring at her, with admiration, envy, longing, adoration, and jealousy in their eyes.

Luo Quan accepted all these emotions calmly and had long been accustomed to them.

Ivy had a look of admiration on her face: "Awesome boss, you are such a good-looking New Age music artist. From now on, you are also the founder of the sect!"

Luo Quan laughed: "Isn't it easy to open a sect? When I have time, I will put on makeup for you so that you can achieve such an achievement!"
