Chapter 303 301. Listening to Erhu makes your blood boil! No way? What kind of musical instrument is this?
As the saying goes, there is no soul that the suona cannot send away, and there is no one who cannot cry while playing the erhu!
The unique voice of the erhu is naturally suitable for playing sadder tones, and it can also resonate with people's sad emotions...
As soon as the prelude of many Erhu tunes is played, many people will feel sad in an instant!
Just like the song Erquan Yingyue played by Wang Cheng just now, it is based on sadness, but it is not a pure tragedy because it also expresses a positive attitude towards life and expresses the original author's rough life.
, but still has a strong attitude towards life, so the music is very complete. It does not just end after playing a tragedy, as if a person has lived a lifetime.
This is why it has very high artistic value and research value. It is called a handed down classic. It is ranked first among many famous erhu songs in Wang Cheng's memory and has never fallen out of the top three.
Many music masters and audiences who know folk music at the scene have been listening to Erhu performances since childhood, and the Erhu performances are mainly based on tragedy, because this is the innate advantage of the Erhu instrument, and many previous creators and performers will naturally do the same.
Make the most of the innate advantages of this instrument!
so!
It's really not strange at all to cry because of listening to the erhu.
but……
The brand new erhu piece played by Wang Cheng at this time is not at all tragic or sad. From the beginning, it gives people a sense of lofty and empty space, and makes people feel a vast and vast atmosphere coming towards them.
!
Almost anyone who knows a little bit about folk music can hear it. This is definitely another new erhu piece!
because……
If they have heard this style of work that is completely different from traditional erhu works, they will never forget it.
Pairs of eyes stared at Wang Cheng, full of shock and disbelief!
Lin Dongqing whispered: "This should be another new work created by himself. He won't play all his new works in today's concert, right?"
Lin Mi took a deep breath again, her eyes still reluctant to leave Wang Cheng for a moment, her pretty face flushed with excitement, and her face was full of admiration: "Why not? He can definitely do this, it depends on whether he wants to do it or not!"
Lin Dongqing said in shock: "Then, if he really achieves this, he will really become a god! From then on, no one dares to question him or rank in front of him in the field of classical music and art at home and abroad...
No one in the history of classical music in the world has been able to do this."
None of the great music and art masters in Europe who are famous throughout history have ever done this!
Therefore, if Wang Cheng can do it, and if he can do it under the witness of dozens of top music artists at home and abroad, then Wang Cheng can really become a god in the field of classical music in an instant, and everyone present will be willing to be inferior!
Even if Wang Cheng does not focus on mainstream European and American instruments such as piano and violin, he is still enough to suppress all classical music masters in the world.
No matter who you are, a domestic master, a top international school, or an international music master, you have to kneel down...
But!
Such a thing is incredible.
Lin Mi asked: "Since Wang Cheng's debut, has he sang other people's works? Has he played other people's works?"
Lin Dongqing was stunned for a moment, and then his expression changed slightly. He thought about it carefully and found that Wang Cheng had never sung other people's songs or played other people's music!
Wang Cheng only performed other people's songs with his teammates on Dragon TV's talent show Eastern Star when he first debuted, but at that time Wang Cheng was just a backup dancer, the kind of backup dancer without a single lyric...
Since Wang Cheng started singing and performing on his own, no other people's works have appeared, only his own works, whether they are pop music works or classical music works, they are all his own original works.
So……
Can Wang Cheng continue this in his solo concert today?
Lin Dongqing didn't dare to think about it.
Because, that's really incredible and awesome.
At this time, suddenly a burst of rapid and different music came.
Lin Dongqing and Lin Mi, father and daughter, immediately stopped talking and looked at the stage with astonishment in their eyes.
I saw Wang Cheng sitting on a chair, playing with the strings of the erhu with one hand, and making a rapid sound, as if this was not an erhu but a guitar, but this rapid sound was different from what Wang Cheng had just played.
The music fit perfectly. For a moment, everyone seemed to see a group of fierce horses galloping. The rushing sound was the sound of horse hooves made by the group of fierce horses constantly galloping and stamping on the ground...
It was the first time for everyone present to see this Erhu playing technique, but the effect was surprisingly good, novel and amazing.
Tian Wen, Fan Yu, Xu Chaohua and all the folk music masters stood up instantly, leaning forward slightly, staring at Wang Cheng with their eyes, trying to see Wang Cheng's every move clearly and write down Wang Cheng's performance.
every detail of...
This groundbreaking new performance technique is refreshing and shocking to all those who know folk music...
turn out to be!
The erhu can still be played like this.
Moreover, the performance is so good?
The galloping horse fits so well with the style of music played by Wang Cheng.
All of them saw clearly in an instant, the lively scene of a group of herdsmen riding horses galloping and chasing each other on the grassland, everyone trying to win the first place!
In their eyes, the erhu in Wang Cheng's hand was completely different from the erhu in their impressions.
In the music, they seemed to hear the sound of the morinouqur, the effect of the guitar, and many sounds and emotions that they had never heard in previous erhu performances.
This is very different from the traditional erhu playing method they remember.
Because the erhu piece Wang Cheng played before was an extremely standard traditional erhu piece and playing method, comparing the two, the changes in Wang Cheng's playing method at this time were more clear and impactful.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! It seems...
In an instant, times have changed.
At this time, Wang Cheng's movements and postures when playing the erhu were extremely open and closed, enthusiastic and unrestrained, and his whole movements seemed like he was riding a horse.
All of them have a feeling of wanting to get to know the erhu again.
This kind of national musical instrument, which has been passed down in China for thousands of years and has a rich sense of culture, now has a brand-new flavor and fits the new era!
Xu Chaohua, who was standing, murmured in a low voice: "It's amazing... This erhu piece has created a new era of erhu! However, the piece just now is the most classic traditional erhu piece! This new piece
All the old and new music have been pushed to their limits and can be called classics. What does Wang Cheng want to express? Does he want to tell us that our music has been complacent for so many years? Does he want to tell us that we should give up tradition and pursue innovation and change?
?"
Xu Chaohua's words made Yan Qing next to him and many other folk music experts from the music school couldn't help but nod excitedly.
Wang Cheng's erhu piece with a new style and playing technique seemed to open a new door for them in an instant...
now that……
Erhu can be so innovative and changeable, and the effect is so good, and the live performance is so shocking.
So……
Can other ethnic musical instruments also develop in such a way that seeks innovation and change?
Have they made a mistake in conserving tradition for many years?
Classical music and ethnic music have not made any progress over the years, but have regressed a lot. Is this all their fault for being complacent?
For a while...
With their eyes fixed on Wang Cheng and listening to the exciting erhu music, all the domestic musicians present thought of a lot.
Although many foreign musicians don't know much about the erhu, so they don't quite understand the meaning of Wang Cheng's work, but they can also intuitively feel the huge difference between the work Wang Cheng just played and the work he is playing now, which also makes
They were even more shocked by Wang Cheng's exploration of different styles of the same instrument, which was so profound!
Under everyone’s shocked and thoughtful gaze!
Wang Cheng stood up directly, his movements became more intense, he opened and closed more, and his body swayed with the intense music, which more intuitively demonstrated the core of the song - riding a horse.
It's like riding a horse and playing the erhu at the same time.
This is also the most refreshing time for Wang Cheng to play the erhu. This horse racing song is really one of the rare refreshing pieces with different styles in the erhu. Wang Cheng did not study it carefully in his previous life, he just knew how to play it. This time he devoted himself wholeheartedly to the performance and took it seriously.
After realizing the core artistic conception of this piece, I felt a little excited.
When the last note is played...
Wang Cheng was still standing and kept riding the horse for a few seconds. Then he came out of the artistic conception of the music and gently touched the erhu. He liked this instrument very much.
And the music stops.
The scene remained quiet for more than a minute.
Lin Mi and Wen Yixiao applauded in unison, and the fierce applause woke up everyone present...
Then, everyone's applause immediately came, and everyone immediately stood up together, using all their strength to give their warmest applause to the figure on the stage.
Even Charles, Howard, Haixi, Heidi and others stood up willingly at this moment, applauded vigorously, and gave their applause to Wang Cheng and to music and art!
The day after tomorrow, Hu Xiaoshan, Li Guang, Zhang Huizhong, Xie Xingfeng, and Shen Shenghui also applauded together. Everyone's eyes were full of admiration and shock.
Hu Xiaoshan looked at Wang Cheng and the excited audience in the audience. The three thousand people in the audience stood up and applauded. The scene was quite lively. He praised: "This is the first time I have seen such a lively concert scene! Of course. , this is the first time I have seen Wang Cheng’s wonderful erhu performance. The two pieces of music are completely different in style and performance techniques. I didn’t expect that I could actually get excited listening to the erhu.”
It is not uncommon for concerts to receive standing ovations.
The world's top performers have enjoyed it, and often enjoy it.
For example, Charles, Howard, Crowder, Scott, Mueller, Hanks and others at the scene have all enjoyed such standing applause from the audience many times.
However, it was basically a favored applause, rather than a real applause that was shocked and conquered by the music. You can see it from the expressions of the audience.
Listening to the erhu can make your blood boil. It is really the first time for them to experience it.
Xie Xingfeng's eyes flickered and he whispered: "What will be the effect if I arrange a solo concert for Wang Cheng on the Spring Festival Gala?"
Xie Xingfeng could think that Wang Cheng's two erhu performances, plus the previous guzheng performance, were definitely propaganda and promotion of Chinese national culture, and he would definitely get support from above, which would reduce his resistance.
Hu Xiaoshan, Li Guang, Zhang Huizhong, and Shen Shenghui all looked at Xie Xingfeng at the same time, with doubts and questions.
Arrange a solo concert for Wang Cheng on the Spring Festival Gala?
What time period are you scheduling?
Where do you put the others?
Didn’t Wang Cheng clearly refuse because of the conflict with working hours?
Xie Xingfeng saw the doubts of several people, took a deep breath, and said: "I am looking for a solution, and I came here to discuss it with Wang Cheng."
Shen Shenghui welcomes this.
Although Wang Cheng's attendance at the Spring Festival Gala greatly increased his exposure, which was contrary to his plan, it could also bring some resources to the company as a whole.
Moreover, he really didn't dare to refuse CCTV's invitation to the Spring Festival Gala.
From the perspective of an entertainment company, there is no reason to refuse...
Therefore, Shen Shenghui said softly: "If Wang Cheng agrees, then we definitely have no objection."
Xie Xingfeng nodded, knowing that Shen Shenghui was the tool, and then asked curiously: "What will Wang Cheng play next? Will he continue to play the erhu? Director Shen, have you made a performance plan for Wang Cheng?"
Shen Shenghui smiled bitterly and shook his head: "He didn't communicate with us about any performance plans. For this concert, we just rented the venue for him and sold the tickets. I can't do anything else. The repertoire and so on. , we don’t know. We don’t even know what instruments he uses. That’s why I prepared so many instruments for him on the stage, just because I’m afraid he won’t find one he likes..."
Only then did Xie Xingfeng and Zhang Huizhong know the inside story of this concert. When they looked at each other, they were both shocked. They looked at Wang Cheng with even more admiration.
How to treat a personal concert like this...
He is truly a god.
The most important thing is that Wang Cheng's performance will not disappoint.
Taking a deep breath, Zhang Huizhong whispered: "You are really wasting Wang Cheng's strength and talent by asking him to move east and west like this!"
With Wang Cheng's strength and talent, if a program is carefully planned and Wang Cheng's strength and talent are perfectly brought into play, the effect will definitely be explosive, and it is definitely possible to surpass the peak period of tomorrow's idol.
Those present were all high-ranking people in the entertainment industry, with good vision and ideas, so they all knew that Zhang Huizhong was telling the truth.
The value of Wang Cheng is immeasurable...
but.
Everyone looked at Shen Shenghui.
They know that the further conflict between Rubik's Cube Entertainment and Wang Cheng is that Wang Cheng's value is too high, and Rubik's Cube Entertainment is reluctant to let go.
Shen Shenghui smiled bitterly and said nothing, but continued to look at Wang Cheng.
The applause at the scene gradually subsided.
but……
Everyone did not sit down, but continued to stand, stretching their necks to look at Wang Cheng on the stage.
because……
After Wang Cheng finished playing this Erhu piece, he seemed to have lost interest in the Erhu. He casually placed the Erhu on the instrument stand next to him, and then stood there, with his hands behind his back, and began to examine each instrument on the instrument stand... …
Everyone at the scene was full of curiosity, and their eyes followed Wang Cheng's gaze and footsteps.
Everyone wants to know.
What instrument will Wang Cheng use to play next?
In particular, many domestic folk music masters and top foreign music artists such as Charles and Howard looked at Wang Cheng expectantly and nervously.
They all hope that Wang Cheng will use instruments they are familiar with to play next to show the music art they want to see. If Wang Cheng can also show something new, it may bring some benefits to their future music and art paths. Some new inspirations.
Tian Wen stared at Wang Cheng and murmured nervously: "Guzheng, just choose guzheng..."
As one of the few guzheng masters in China, she naturally hopes that Wang Cheng can play a guzheng piece again, just like Wang Cheng's previous performances of "Jiang Ling" and "Yuzhou Sing Wan", which will once again bring new vitality to the guzheng.
However, there were other folk music masters around her who were also whispering: "Choose a flute or a flute..."
Someone else said: "How about Morinouqin?"
"No, do you really think he can play all those instruments?"
The last words of this folk music expert made several people around him remain silent and smile bitterly.
yes……
There are more than a dozen or twenty popular and unpopular national musical instruments listed above. Some of them even folk music experts such as them could not name them at the moment. How could they expect Wang Cheng to be able to play them all?
It is amazing enough that Wang Cheng can reach the level of the top masters in four musical instruments including erhu, guzheng, piano, and violin...
They really couldn't ask for more.
After all, Wang Cheng is only a nineteen-year-old child...
And Charles, Howard and others were also whispering.
"piano!"
"violin……"
"God, just choose the piano! I want to hear him play Etudes No. 1 live once."
"The name of Etude No. 1 is really ugly."
"I can't help it. Who is too lazy to name him after himself? How about we help him choose a name?"
"The creator is still alive, so we can't give him a name. When he dies, we won't be here anymore, and we won't be able to change his name."
And Heidi stared at Wang Cheng, even clasping her hands together and whispering as if praying: "Please, piano!"
Although Heidi doesn't understand erhu, she is a genius after all. Naturally, she can clearly feel the musical artistic conception expressed in Wang Cheng's two erhu works, so she is even more shocked and looks forward to what Wang Cheng can bring when he plays the piano live.
What a wonderful art experience to enjoy.
Phipps next to him said in a low voice: "I don't believe that he can really know so many instruments above. It would be incredible to know just a few instruments. Now, he actually doesn't have many choices. Maybe they are piano, guzheng,
Violin... Of course I personally hope that he can play the piano!"
"To be honest, I have made some obvious progress after listening to his piano performance last time at the show recording. If I can hear his live piano performance twice more, I think I can surpass you, Heidi!"
Heidi listened to Phipps' words and didn't take it seriously. She didn't feel any pressure at all.
Because she is confident that her talent is above that of Phipps and others, and there is absolutely no way that Phipps can surpass...
at this time……
Wang Cheng on the stage stopped in front of the second musical instrument stand, his eyes swept over the familiar instruments on it, and finally his eyes stopped on an instrument hanging in the middle.
This is an instrument that almost no one has noticed, and it is also an instrument that no one can imagine.
but……
Wang Cheng became interested at this time.
I want to try this instrument that I only knew how to play in my previous life but didn’t have much profound knowledge. I want to see if it can produce the effect I wanted with the erhu just now?
Under everyone's wide-eyed gaze with some disbelief.
Wang Cheng reached out and picked up the instrument from the shelf.
The scene instantly became silent, and all the whispers disappeared...
In an instant, it became audible.
All domestic audiences just don’t believe it—can’t they?
Howard, Charles and other foreign audiences only had doubts in their eyes...
Because most of them have never seen this instrument, it is extremely strange, and they all want to ask - what is it?
