240 [Hold a few more concerts]
It's around 8 o'clock in the evening.
The audience who came to watch the concert successively left the venue from Iverley Fisher Hall. On the way back, everyone whispered to each other, discussing which piece of music in today's concert was more beautiful and charming.
Some people think that the original "Remembrance of the Forbidden City" is magnificent and magnificent, some people think that "Dream of the Hexi Corridor" reveals the civilization mileage of ancient Eastern countries for thousands of years, and some people like the music "Dawn of Heroes" with a strong personal heroism.
In short, the concert was held very successfully. The audiences who came were all satisfied with the concert. Everyone has their own favorite music.
Backstage.
"Yan Ge, congratulations! This concert was very successful. I was addicted to it when I heard it."
Ning Ying hugged Li Yange enthusiastically, let go of his arms, took a step back, and looked at Li Yange who was wearing a suit and ties, remembering that he was just an ordinary young college student in a music school a few years ago, but now he has transformed himself into a performance at this world-class Lincoln Art Center.
This feeling is so wonderful that it is hard to describe!
"Haha, it's thanks to everyone's efforts and the support from Sister Ning."
Li Yange laughed, not at all humble this time.
He worked hard for this concert for four months, not only led the orchestra members to rehearse, but also spent a lot of effort to discuss with several well-known composition professors in the school how to use the orchestra form to perfectly show the live effects of these music.
"What support can we have is nothing more than taking some time, and you have brought us such a wonderful concert, which is really great! I have never heard of such a great concert!"
Ning Ying shook her head with a smile. She was taking a plane from the Venice Film Festival this time. Originally, director Bettorucci was planning to come for a day, but the time was too tight and he couldn't get any time. He had to ask Ning Ying to come and say it.
Hearing these words, Li Yange waved his hand: "Sister Ning is fine, the director is going to participate in the Venice Film Festival. I can understand that there is no time."
Ning Ying said helplessly: "Yes, the director has been operating the Venice Film Festival recently and wants to win another grand prize, but I think it is very likely that it is impossible. After all, the Oscar has won the Best Film Award, and the three major European film festivals are not very good at dealing with the Oscars."
Upon hearing this, Li Yange smiled but said nothing. As the American grand prize, the Oscar was born to be incompatible with the three major European film festivals. Even decades later, few movies that won the grand prizes in these two places at the same time appeared.
At this moment, Ryuichi Sakamoto and Kitaro pushed open the door of the backstage with a smile on their faces and walked in. Seeing Li Yange and others not far away, they enthusiastically stepped forward and congratulated: "Yange, today's concert was so successful. The song "Dawn of Heroes" conquered me in an instant! When will you release an album? I have to buy one and listen carefully."
Hearing Ryuichi Sakamoto's words, Li Yange smiled and said, "The album probably has to wait for a while. If you like to listen, I will get you an original tape after you go back."
"Then I'm looking forward to it." Ryuichi Sakamoto looked at Li Yange with a little enviousness. As an excellent musician, he also had the dream of performing at the Lincoln Art Center, but he had no chance for this.
This time, Polykin's large-scale investment in the United States not only allowed Li Yange to hold a solo concert here, but also vigorously promoted his second album "Dunhuang" in the United States.
This is undoubtedly what Ryuichi Sakamoto envy. It’s a pity that he set up his own personal music studio like Kitaro a few years ago. Whether it is releasing albums or collaborating with others, he is the one who decides himself.
It seems that it has become much more free, but it has also lost a lot of resources and convenience.
Kitaro said with emotion: "When I heard you collaborate with Mr. Yuyou on "Silk Road", I thought it was very good. I heard it again at the concert today, but I found that the live performance was even better! It was much better than my trilogy!"
In the "Silk Road" trilogy created by Kitaro, almost 80% of the music content is synthesized by electronic music. If you can hear this electronic music from the headphones, the effect is quite good.
But compared with live band performances, it is not a little bit worse.
The orchestra performance, whether in the East or West, brings the shock to the audience, is indescribable. Those who have never listened to a band concert cannot experience the 3D surround effect of being in the scene, surrounded by music from all directions!
"Mr. Kitaro, you are joking. Your "Silk Road" series is used as a model of teaching by our Yoyin, especially the use of electronic music, which has broadened my horizons. I just made a second creation based on my predecessors."
Li Yange shook his head. The song "Silk Road" created by Tan Dun was more than 20 years later than Kitaro's. During this period, many different changes have occurred in the international music industry. In addition, Li Yange discussed and revised it with several professors of Yoyin, and its effect is naturally different from the past.
While everyone was chatting.
As soon as Yo-you Ma entered the door, he immediately stepped forward and said with joy: "Yan Ge, I just communicated with a few music critics in New York. They unanimously agreed that this was a successful concert and should not be held only one. They hoped that I would tell you that you can hold more so that more people can come and enjoy your music."
"How many more?" Li Yange was amused and crying. He thought, but this concert was planned by Polykin, and people from the Lincoln Art Center might not be willing to give him a free time.
Yo-yo Ma said: "You don't have to worry about the venue. I can arrange it for you. I want to come to Polykin to know about this and will arrange more concerts for you in other places."
"This..." Li Yange hesitated for a moment, glanced back and glanced at the members of the band who were still talking fiercely over there, and they all looked excited, obviously not far from the joy of performing in the United States.
"Then I'll bother you, it's okay to hold a few more games. It's not easy for us to come to the United States."
Most of the members of the Dunhuang Orchestra were drawn from other orchestras in China. They worked hard for four months and did not say that they could not pay a dime.
This made Li Yange very embarrassed. He originally thought that he would find a way to compensate everyone after the performance. Now he heard that Yo-you Ma said that he could hold a few more concerts, and he decided to wait until he went back in the evening and say that the tickets for the next few concerts will be distributed to everyone.
After all, this performance at the Lincoln Art Center was organized by Polykin, and all the income was shared by Polykin and Li Yange.
Chapter completed!
