Chapter 115 The Practice of New Folk Music

Han Xuefei's ten fingers gently stroked the strings of the zither, and waves of ancient zither sounds floated up, making the person who heard them feel calm.

Sometimes the accent is as concise as a mountain, sometimes the arpeggio is as light as flowing water, the music is neither slow nor anxious, with a sense of leisure and freehand painting.

The song "Papapapapapana" ended, and a burst of applause suddenly came from the door:

Han Xuefei was playing with all her heart, but she didn't notice a person standing at the door. After playing this song, she heard the applause and then suddenly looked up at the door. Liu Yufan, wearing a gray T-shirt and jeans, was standing by the door and smiling at him:

"When did you come? Why didn't you say anything?" Han Xuefei asked with a surprise smile, and the man also stood up from the piano bench.

"I came for a long time, but I didn't disturb you when I saw you practicing the piano. I heard that you played this song "High Mountains and Flowing Water" and your skills are not yet at the ninth level. "Liu Yufan said with a smile.

"I passed the exam before the college entrance examination. In fact, passing the exam is a form and it doesn't make much sense. After going to school, I realized that the so-called eighth and nineth grades, passing the exam does not mean anything. It is still far from a real master."

Han Xuefei said with a smile.

"Well, that's right. Nowadays, there are more and more children studying music in society, but most of the interests of parents and children are in the grading exams, and most of the grading institutions are not so formal, and there are many unsatisfactory aspects." Liu Yufan said with emotion.

"Oh, I'm listening to you, it's like an old learner, haha, but what you said makes sense: "Han Xuefei showed a smile on her face, which looked a little cold, but she was a little stunning in this move.

"Talk casually, Sister Xuefei, I have an idea to tell you that something may be wrong about our show. Don't be angry." Liu Yufan heard Han Xuefei play the guzheng in the sky, and suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind. He remembered something.

"It doesn't matter if you talk." Han Xueguan smiled and sat back on the piano bench, looking at Liu Yufan very attentively.

"That's right, the main audience of our program is the common people, so it's not nice to say, which also determines that the audience's appreciation level will not be too high. There is a problem here." Liu Yufan said this and saw Han Xuefei nodding slightly, as if he agreed with his own opinion. Then he continued: "Look, whether it's your general fishing boat singing late", "Raise the whip and urge the horse to transport grain" or other programs, they all seem too serious. Perhaps some ordinary people like to watch it, but I think most of them don't understand it or like to watch it."

"Yes, I know this problem too. Don't look at how successful we performed in the cinema last night, but when we went to the countryside, it might be another matter." Han Xuefei nodded and said, obviously she agreed with Liu Yufan's words.

"Since that's the case, why don't we change the form? Isn't it better to make the performance of these instruments more understandable and allow the people to accept this?" Liu Yufan said with a wave of his hand.

"How to change it? The songs are all ready-made. There are scores there, and it's not OK to change them randomly: "Han Xuefei obviously doesn't understand what Liu Yufan means. Can the songs that have been written into the score still be modified? She has never heard of them:

"I'm not saying that I want to change the existing songs, but the song: some popular songs that the boat people like in Shanghai are expressed in instrumental form and supplemented with some electronic music. Well, we can actually call this and form New folk music." Liu Yufan blurted out and said the word:

In fact, on the first day of learning flute, Liu Yufan had such an idea. The traditional songs were repeated over and over again, and there would be no new ideas no matter how you play them. Since that is the case, it would be better to take another path to let folk music actively adapt to the market and the people, so that they might get unexpected results. In later generations, some people have made similar attempts, and there are many successful examples, just copy these experiences. This is a bold attempt, and Liu Yufan really wants to try it out, can he create a new path in this regard.

"Xinmin is having fun" Han Xuefei repeated the word. This was the second time she had heard it in Liu Yufan's mouth.

"But isn't that a very simple thing to play the songs of the flow? In this way, the advantages of instrumental music will not be revealed." Han Xuefei asked worriedly. She used the Guzheng to play some popular songs when she was bored, but for her, it was just a pastime for me, and that music would not be a good place. Now that Liu Yufan is going to bring this form to the stage, Han Xuefei feels it is a bit unreliable.

"Sister Xuefei, you are wrong. It is not easy to play pop songs with instrumental music. On the contrary, I think it is more difficult than playing those large-scale songs. Why? Because everyone is too familiar with these songs. If you play them well or not, you can hear them as soon as you listen. Are you not difficult? And instrumentalizing pop music may not be simple in the performance techniques. You can use the advantages of the instrument in one point to beautify and modify some melody, a small song,

If you make a good revision, you can also become a large-scale music. Isn’t "The Variations of Little Stars" adapted by Mo Zhaji a good example?" Liu Yufan said a lot of words in his mind, and these words were a relatively well-formed idea. Before, because he was busy practicing piano, he had no chance to put it into practice. Now that he has such a good practical opportunity to go to the countryside, he must of course try it boldly to see if there is a market for this and adaptation.

He was very lucky that among the team members recruited this time, there were Han Xuefei's guzheng, Zhang Gensheng and Meng Dahai who played the trumpet, Pang Dayuan and Li Guangming who played the erhu, and his own flute, there was too much room for play here, not to mention, there was also a fat man named Wang Baocheng with a strong improvisation accompaniment ability. Now he didn't even have to find someone to find electronic instrument music. If he didn't seize such a good opportunity, Liu Yufan felt sorry for himself.

"It seems to make sense to hear you say this. But how are you going to change it?" Han Xuefei was also interested in Liu Yufan. To be honest, she played the songs specified in the textbook every day, and she was a little interested at the beginning, but she gradually got annoyed. Instead, when she played those popular songs, Han Xuefei found it very interesting and felt it. There were even a few popular songs that she was very satisfied with. She was a proud work, but she had never had the chance to show it in front of others:

"Let's just have a simple song first. Well, let's change it "Above the Moon"." Liu Yufan thought of the Guzheng and the flute, and the mind suddenly appeared in his mind. The gorgeous Guzheng and the straightforward and free-spirited bamboo flute appeared. The gorgeous Guzheng and the straightforward and free-spirited bamboo flute were a great pleasure. With the current level of himself and Han Xuefei, although he may not reach the level of the master, he can copy it to seven or eight points. Liu Fanfan is still confident in his heart.

"Above the Moon"? Is this a song? Why haven't I heard it before? Haha, I usually listen to it less popular, otherwise, you can sing a few sentences for me first." Han Xuefei said with a smile.

"Have you heard it?" After hearing Han Xuefei's words, Liu Yufan frowned, and then realized that he might be a little ahead of his time.

"It seems that at this time, the song "Above the Moon" has not been released yet, and the combination of Phoenix Legend has not appeared either. This Li is a little troublesome. I will make this song out now and make an instrumental version. Will there be any problems?" Liu Yufan thought with some confusion.

"What's wrong with Yufan?" Seeing Liu Yufan being stunned by himself, Han Xuefei asked in confusion.

"Oh, nothing, I'm thinking about how to change this song." Liu Yufan said with a smile. After Han Xuefei interrupted, he was also excited. Anyway, this song will take several years to come out. Now, Phoenix Legend is not sure where to stay in. Since that's the case, I don't have to be polite, so it should be fine to use it. Forget it, without this song, those composers should have written other good things. "Liu Yufan comforted himself like this.

"Wait, Sister Xuefei, I'll go downstairs to find paper and pen, and write the score for you later: "Liu Yufan, who made up his mind, started to act.

"Well, okay, go quickly, I really want to see what the song you changed is like." Han Xuefei said with a very excited look on her face.

Brother Liu Yu quickly found paper and pen in the office where he hugged him, and leaned on the small table next to the rehearsal hall. Liu Yufan wrote "Above the Moon" several Yu. Looking at these four Yus, Liu Yufan suddenly felt a complicated mood in his heart.

"Linghua, Zeng Yi, don't blame me. This song is really suitable for adaptation. Well, it's not possible. When you debut, if you really want to sing this song, I don't want the copyright fee." Liu Yufan murmured in a low voice.

"Hey, Yufan, what are you muttering alone?" Han Xuefei came over curiously, wanting to see the song written by Liu Yufan, but when she came over, she only saw him writing a Mingyu, and she started to talk to herself there.

"It's nothing, hehe, you wait, you'll be calm in a while."

Liu Yufan said, writing like a flying song, turning the melody he had heard countless times into a string of music scores on paper:

Liu Yufan wrote a simplified score because it was just a popular song, with a wide range, and the instruments used mainly are Guzheng and flutes with a not too wide range. Naturally, there is no need to use five-line scores. In fact, even regular flute scores and Guzheng scores are recorded using simplified scores.

Seeing Liu Yufan quickly write rows of simple scores, which were so accurate and standardized, Han Xuefei admired him a little. He was still a college student in the School of Music, and he was afraid that he would write music scores, and he was not as good as him: I don’t know which teacher taught him, and he had such a solid basic skills.

Looking at the melody on the score, Han Xuefei hummed softly and hummed a few words. She felt that the melody of this song was simple and beautiful. In her mind, she had already thought about how to express it with the guzheng.

"Haha, I've written it, Sister Xuefei, you try it on the piano first." Liu Yufan said, handing over the written score.
