Chapter 41 Musical Sensation (Part 2)
"Then let's start testing the second item, pitch." The white peacock waited for Hua Shanyun to finish drinking tea, then waved his wings and cleared everything on the stone table, took out a pipa and held it, and handed it to Hua Shanyun.
Shanyun gave a special sheet of music and a charcoal pen, "Since you like it, let's test it with Pipa. Next I will play a piece of music. When I play, the corresponding dots on the sheet will light up, like
so……"
In order to demonstrate, Teacher Kong played the first section of the music score. Sure enough, a row of small gray dots in the first section of the music score lit up one after another.
"Teacher Kong, what kind of magic is this? Does the music room teach this?" Hua Shanyun's starry eyes lit up again, and she looked at Teacher Kong flickeringly.
Teacher Kong laughed: "This is the array that Sister Shuang made for me at my request."
"Shuang...couldn't it be Teacher Xiong?" Hua Shanyun was even more surprised.
"Oh, I almost forgot, you know her." The tips of Teacher Kong's flying feathers elegantly blocked her slightly open mouth, "She is one of the masters of the formation room. If you want to practice formations in the future,
She should also be responsible for taking you."
"Is she the only teacher in the formation room?" Hua Shanyun was puzzled. This was different from what was promised.
"Of course not. Each auxiliary skill has three teachers. However, the school stipulates that genius disciples must be individually guided by the one with the highest skill level among the three teachers, that is, the master."
"So, you are the master of the music room? But why haven't I heard this term? It seems that the senior sister didn't call you the master just now." Hua Shanyun asked.
"This is to avoid dissatisfaction among ordinary disciples. Just know it. You don't need to publicize it outside. You can just call us the same as you call other teachers."
"It's getting further and further away. Come on, let's hurry up." Hua Shanyun stopped asking another question in time, and White Peacock continued the pitch test. "In the next performance, some notes will be wrong. What you have to do
Just draw a short line under the dot corresponding to the wrong sound as a mark."
When Hua Shanyun nodded to show that he understood, the white peacock began to play the pipa.
Because his attention was focused on finding the wrong notes, Hua Shanyun did not have time to appreciate Teacher Kong's superb pipa skills. At the end of the song, Hua Shanyun also drew many bars on her score.
"Let me take a look..." Teacher Kong took the music score and said, "Well, it's 70% correct."
When Hua Shanyun saw that Teacher Kong marked a "seven" on the music score, she couldn't help but ask: "Is this my score?"
"Yes, your answer sheet and my performance have to be submitted for review and recording." Bai Peacock seemed to have thought of something, and took out a small red agate-like stone from the necklace on his chest, "
Now, this is a photo stone, and the previous rhythm test was also recorded."
Although she seriously suspected that there were time travelers among the leaders of this village, Hua Shanyun still had to do as the Romans did, and asked: "Is the full score ten? Then what is my rhythm test score?"
"Well, the full score is ten points. I think your rhythm test can be given nine points." Teacher Kong replied patiently, "But the final result still depends on the average score, which is enough to reach seven points or above."
"Come on, the last item." Bai Peacock felt that although it is a good quality to be diligent in learning and asking questions, it is better not to ask questions on her own head next time. She must write down all the questions answered today in the handout later. God knows she has already
How many times have I repeated my answer...
"The last item is to test your comprehensive sense of music. I will still play three melodies on the pipa, and you will hum it after each one. Are you ready? Let's start..."
This time Hua Shanyun could appreciate the meaning of "noisy and jumbled bullets, big and small beads falling on the jade plate". For a moment, she didn't know whether she admired the talent of the great poet Bai Juyi more, or the skill of this pipa master. She could only
Say Ruisibai...
The first melody was relatively simple and short, as if to familiarize her with it. Hua Shanyun hummed it smoothly, and she still had time to think that it would be a piece of cake; in the second section, some decorative sounds were added, and the melody changed.
It's also a lot more complicated, but with spiritual consciousness to help memorize it, there's not much of a problem in re-singing it, except that a few decorative notes are lost; the third section is based on the difficulty of the second section, lengthening the playing time, speeding up the rhythm, and also
The span of the vocal range was enlarged, and one section was even close to coloratura. Hua Shanyun tried her best but was unable to do anything...
Hua Shanyun, who had a sore throat during the day, would have been deprived of oxygen if he hadn't had spiritual support. The third section is really not something that an amateur like us can bear...
"Take a rest and drink something to moisten your throat." Teacher Kong pushed a cup of tea along the stone table, "I often drink this Forichun tea. It is warm and refreshing, and it can restore tired vocal cords to their original state."
"Thank you, Teacher Kong." Hua Shanyun took a sip and felt that her tight and astringent throat immediately felt relieved. She drank the rest of the tea in a big gulp, sat down comfortably and asked Bai Peacock: "Mr. Kong, this tea is made from
What ingredients are used to make it? It feels so good after drinking it. Can you teach me? Also, in addition to playing musical instruments, do musicians have to be able to sing? So when fighting, is it better to sing or use musical instruments? In the handout..."
