302. The art of suona, hundreds of birds worship the phoenix!(1/2)
Chapter 304
Obviously, no one in China doesn’t know this musical instrument...
Although domestic folk music has been declining for many years, this musical instrument has always been very popular among the people and is often used in some weddings and weddings.
However, few people abroad know about it.
Especially top musicians like Charles and Howard who focus on classical music art have never paid attention to this Chinese national musical instrument.
Heidi asked in a low voice: "Is this a trumpet?"
After all, Phipps had been in China for a while. He shook his head and explained in a low voice: "This is not a trumpet. It looks like a trumpet. However, it is a wind instrument, just like a trumpet. This is called a suona.
, is a musical instrument often used by Chinese folk."
"During the auditions for our musician program before, there were Chinese contestants who participated in the competition with this instrument, but were eliminated very early."
"This instrument has a very loud sound... it requires high lung capacity, and the playing skills are relatively complex. The Chinese player who used this instrument to participate in the competition last time learned it from his family. He has been practicing suona since he was five or six years old.
At the age of twenty, he achieved success and was specially recruited by Yangyin of China."
"Now, there are very few people in China who can play this kind of musical instrument..."
Heidi and Professor Hessey both looked at Phipps in surprise, not expecting that Phipps would know so much.
However, then their attention was once again attracted by Wang Cheng on the stage...
Since this kind of musical instrument is extremely niche in China, can Wang Cheng really play it? Or is he just playing it?
Tian Wen, Xu Chaohua, Fan Yu and other domestic folk musicians all looked at Wang Cheng in shock and speechlessness...
They all felt that Wang Cheng was simply too willful.
Xu Chaohua said in a low voice: "There are almost no people who can play the suona instrument now. I wonder if Wang Cheng can play it."
Yan Qing also said with some helplessness: "I used to have a friend who was very talented in suona and studied it for more than three years. But he was always laughed at by relatives and friends, and finally he gave up because he couldn't stand the pressure at home!"
They know that this is the living environment of many ethnic musical instruments now!
The suona, for example, almost has a native flavor. Most people in the society know this musical instrument in the same way - there is no soul that cannot be sent away without the suona. They almost regard the suona as the representative element of white things.
one.
In fact, suona is also one of the main elements of red events.
Of course, whether it is a red event or a white event, it is actually a common thing among the people.
Therefore, suona is extremely down-to-earth and has nothing to do with music and art in the eyes of most people.
Xialiba people and Yangchun Baixue are almost born to be opposites.
If a serious suona major student who graduated from Yangyin University introduces himself: I am a suona major graduate from Yangyin University! He will definitely be ridiculed and ridiculed by many people in the society.
Without the pretentious attributes, it is impossible to make a living from it.
Then, parents will naturally not allow their children to study, and of course they will become increasingly withered.
and……
Learning suona is not that easy. It is not as simple as getting started with piano and guzheng. It is also not as sound as the piano and guzheng's grading system. You can see your level improve step by step.
Therefore, everyone present did not expect that Wang Cheng actually picked up a suona...
Throughout the concert, people from the folk music departments of several domestic music schools came, and some folk music masters also came to join in the fun.
However, there is no music school professor or folk musician who can play suona.
because……
The suona major is also an extremely unpopular major in the folk music department of music schools. There are not many people applying to study. Naturally, such an unpopular major is not qualified for the academy to spend precious resources to bring it here. Folk performers who can play suona will not pay high prices.
Come here and join in the fun!
Therefore, teachers and students from many domestic conservatories at the scene looked at each other and couldn't find anyone who could play suona. And they were not that good at suona, they could only say they knew a little bit about it.
Looking at Wang Cheng holding a suona on the stage, everyone was speechless for a moment...
However, most people still have hope and luck in their eyes. They hope that Wang Cheng does not really want to play the suona, but just picks it up to have a look. They hope that Wang Cheng would be better off playing instruments that they are all familiar with, such as piano, guzheng, violin, etc.
You can wait!
Unfortunately……
Wang Cheng picked up the suona and never let go.
Tian Wen said with a little regret: "If I had known that Wang Cheng could play suona, I would have brought Professor He here! Professor He is the only successor of the suona master in the country."
Chen Yuqi said helplessly: "Uncle He teaches five students. He is so free, so he will definitely be willing to come."
There are really few people studying Suona. The five students taught by Professor He all had family backgrounds, so they applied for the Suona major.
Professor He himself is also the descendant of the suona master. His uncle was the only famous suona master in China at that time. However, none of his uncle's children were interested in suona. Instead, Professor He, his nephew, wanted to learn suona, so his uncle taught him
The family tradition of suona skills was passed down to Professor He, and then Yangyin recruited Professor He into the Department of Folk Music as a professor who specializes in teaching suona. He is also the only suona performer in the country who can perform on the stage, but he is far from being considered
Master of suona performance.
Because Uncle Professor He passed away many years ago, and now there are no master suona players in the country.
Many folk music experts predict that the suona, a national musical instrument, will be lost in about a hundred years.
It is said that in order to support the national musical instrument, the country specially shot a film to interpret the story of a folk suona inheritance. For this purpose, several famous folk music professors from the conservatory of music were invited to serve as consultants.
Zhou Zhe and other people from Yangyin didn't say anything, they just stared at Wang Cheng with complicated expressions.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Wang Cheng's performance of two consecutive erhu pieces just now has conquered them all.
Now, they just want to know what other surprises Wang Cheng will bring them?
Wang Cheng didn't pay attention to the whispers and the many strange and expectant looks at the scene. He just took the brand new suona in his hand, touched the lines on it, then brought it to his mouth and blew it gently, making a harmonious sound.
There was something different about the sound she imagined.
With the sound of the suona, everyone at the scene was startled, thinking that Wang Cheng's suona playing was about to start, and they all sat upright and stared at Wang Cheng.
but……
Wang Cheng did not start immediately, but after playing a few times, he adjusted it a few times.
Everyone at the scene looking at Wang Cheng was a little surprised.
because……
From the looks of it, Wang Cheng might actually be able to play the suona.
Otherwise, how could the movements of playing and debugging look so professional?
Folk music experts such as Tian Wen, Xu Chaohua, Fan Yu and others who are suona professionals can all see that Wang Cheng might really be able to play the suona!
only……
Why?
This question is destined to have no answer.
I saw that after Wang Cheng made some adjustments, he picked up the suona and started playing suddenly.
Everyone's eyes were fixed on Wang Cheng, knowing that Wang Cheng was serious and really wanted to play the suona!
Everyone is also very curious and looking forward to it...
Does Wang Cheng know how to play the suona?
When Wang Cheng started to play.
A loud suona sound sounded, like the rising sun in the east. As the suona sound became louder and louder, a rising vitality began to brew in everyone's heart, and there was also a festive atmosphere mixed in.
Even if there are 3,000 people present, most of them basically don't know much about suona, and the very few folk music masters who know some about suona can't play it.
However, most people understand music and music art...
Foreign musicians such as Charles, Howard, Haixi, Heidi, etc. can all see clear pictures from the suona music played by Wang Cheng, like a rising sun, a group of flying birds in the fresh mountains.
Flying by, every bird is extremely lively and beautiful, full of lively and festive atmosphere. Every bird seems to be flying in the same direction, and every bird is very excited...
This incomparably clear ability to express music shocked Howard, Scott, Claude and others again.
Folk music masters such as Xu Chaohua, Tian Wen, and Fan Yu, who know some suona, are even more shocked.
Because, from Wang Cheng's blowing away process, they could clearly see Wang Cheng's difficult suona blowing away skills.
Their respective conservatories all have suona majors, so they all know some suona to some extent. Even if they don't understand it very well, they also know some of its difficult performance techniques.
And at this time...
Wang Cheng is using his actual actions to demonstrate the difficult Suona playing skills to them one by one.
Articulation, portamento, tongue twisting, fingering, vibrato...as well as techniques such as swallowing, spitting, padding, hitting, wiping, pressing, etc...
They can all see it from Wang Cheng!
There are also some difficult techniques that several Suona professors they know have talked about but cannot often successfully use. They also appear in Wang Cheng's hands one by one, such as tongue punch, air punch, rebound sound, and continuous playing.
Sound, lip air and vibrato, finger air and vibrato, etc. Their extremely difficult skills are all vaguely visible...
To be continued...
