Chapter 2 Ensemble

Jing Boan pulled Ye Weiyang to the second canteen for a simple lunch, and then pulled him to the school's training building without stopping.

Along the way, he kept talking about all kinds of new things that happened inside and outside the department, and Ye Weiyang just smiled and rarely responded.

His attention was focused on observing the surrounding environment.

“The school is so beautiful…”

As the world's top conservatory of music in China, Tianhai Conservatory of Music is naturally very good.

Not only is the scenery beautiful, the facilities are advanced and high-end, but in Ye Weiyang's memory, the dormitory environment is also very good. Not only is there four people a room, the home appliances are also complete, the independent bathroom has 24-hour hot water supply, and it also has air conditioning, refrigerators and washing machines. The campus network is still 5G, and it is constantly connected throughout the day.

This is much better than the second book he read back then!

Of course, the accommodation fee is six times higher than his accommodation fee of 1,000 yuan in that semester...

It is worthy of being an art school, and the charge is very reasonable!

However, the original family is well off and there is no need to worry about tuition fees. The family also supports him in making music, in the words of his mother.

"Just leave money to parents, just do what they like to do!"

Such enlightened parents also made Ye Weiyang envious. If his father hadn't insisted on him, the job he had at the time was popular: computers, maybe he would have had the chance to learn music.

However, family conditions do not allow it!

After a while, Jing Bo'an and Ye Weiyang came to a practice room on the second floor of the practice building.

"We'll get in quickly!" Jing Bo'an pushed hard, and the door with sound insulation function was pushed open by him. A sound of guitar solo came into Ye Weiyang's ears.

He clearly heard the tone, beat, chord trend, and note rhythm of this solo.

This is the role played by the original body's excellent music theory knowledge and music appreciation ability that he left to him.

And this knowledge, among all the memories he received, is definitely the most precious part!

Although Ye Weiyang was in college, because of his love, he taught himself folk guitar and was able to play and sing proficiently.

But because he has never studied systematically, even if he learns guitar, he only uses guitar six-line notation specially used for folk guitar learning.

The six-line score is actually completely different from the five-line score used in professional music, and it is even worse than the simple score.

Simply put, the six-line score is just how to press the strings, which string should be plucked, and draw it on the paper in a picture way, and then you can play a song as you play.

As for which sound you press and which sound you pop up, I'm sorry, I don't know it myself. It's completely cramming!

Playing and singing all depends on memorizing the six-line scores one by one. I only know the reason, but I don’t know the reason!

Even before today, he always thought that there were only seven notes of music, DO, RE, MI, FA, SOL, LA, SI...

After receiving the memory of the original body, he realized that a group of music had octaves and was divided into twelve semitone intervals. In other words, music had twelve notes, that is, the twelve equal rhythms, and the piano was determined based on the twelve equal rhythms.

The twelve equal rhythms are just the most basic knowledge of music theory, and they are not even considered introductory knowledge.

So, before you want to learn music, the first thing you have to do is to learn two major music theory knowledge first!

Fortunately, Ye Weiyang has gotten a bargain and doesn't have to learn it by himself...

"Why did you come? We have been waiting for you for a long time. If you are the lead singer, how can we rehearse!"

Ye Weiyang just raised his foot and walked into the practice room. The guitar solo came to an abrupt end. Yang Xiao, who was solo, immediately stopped playing in his hand and complained to him with some dissatisfaction.

Yang Xiao is the main guitarist of their temporary band, and the little guitar prince in the school. He is handsome and plays well. He can play classical, folk songs and electric guitars. He is one of the most popular figures in the Musical Instrumental Performance Academy.

However, he also has one disadvantage, which is that he has a hot temper and belongs to an explosive barrel. He ignites it at a glance. Usually, everyone calls him a bomb.

Look, it was originally agreed that we would gather in the practice room after the morning class, but Ye Weiyang was half an hour late, and Yang Xiao was a little unhappy.

He is a very principled person. He said what time it was, and what time it was. Being late was delaying everyone's time and was the behavior he hated the most.

Jing Bo'an scratched his head, smiled silly, and explained to Ye Weiyang: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Weiyang has a little hypoglycemia, so I went to the cafeteria with him and then came here, which took some time."

Yang Xiao put away the guitar, raised his head and glanced at Ye Weiyang, then nodded: "Since it's not intentional, then forget it, be careful next time!"

"Okay, since Wei Yang is here, let's hurry up and start practicing together!" Pudding, who was fiddling with the electronic keyboard, smiled and smoothed the situation.

Pudding is the only female member of the entire band. He plays the thief 6 with one electronic keyboard. He can play the effect of an orchestra with just one electronic piano. He is also the best keyboardist in the sophomore year of the Performance Academy!

In addition, Bass Wu Dawei, who has been squatting in the corner of the practice room, a weird guy who has a good bass but is very introverted, got together this newly established band!

As soon as Pudding shouted, the members who were originally fiddling with the instruments also picked up their instruments and stood in the center of the practice room. Jing Bo'an also brought the drum set in the corner to fight over.

The four people except Ye Weiyang soon stood in the 22 formation. Yang Xiao and Wu Dawei stood in the first row on the left and right, while Jing Bo'an and Puding set up musical instruments behind them.

And the vacant seat in the center of them is the location reserved for Ye Weiyang.

After the four of them lined up, Jing Bo'an found Ye Weiyang standing aside stupidly and shouted: "Weiyang, why are you standing there? Come and rehearse!"

"Oh..." Ye Weiyang nodded blankly, and stood in the center of the four people as he remembered the rehearsals before.

When he reached out to hold the standing wheat in front of him, a feeling that had never appeared in the past 30 years came to his heart.

Excitement, excitement, emotion, expectation and anxiety mixed together, combining a feeling that made him tremble all over his body.

“It feels…unexpectedly good!”

Before he could experience this wonderful emotion a few more times, after seeing Ye Weiyang take his seat, Puding, as the musician responsible for the main melody of the rehearsal of the repertoire, directed: "Okay, get ready!"

"Three! Two! One!"

A sound of a simulated organ sounded first from the electronic keyboard on the pudding's hand. After the two bar organ solo ended, a melodious piano sound was followed.

Jing Bo'an lightly stepped on the bass drum with his left foot, and beat the tom drum with his left hand according to the four-four beats. A very rhythmic drum beat followed.

After playing two bars with drum beats and piano, Yang Xiao's electric guitar and Wu Dawei's bass sounded together...

Four instruments and five tones sounded at the same time, and they blended wonderfully together.

Every player looked at Ye Weiyang, waiting for him to enter the rhythm.

This feeling made Ye Weiyang's soul begin to tremble.

The ensemble feels so wonderful!

For the music itself, ensemble is a happy thing.

The collision between sounds is not as simple as the physical superposition on the surface, but it will cause a wonderful chemical reaction!

Unless the performer has a super high level of solo and uses the king of instruments like the piano, the ensemble will always be more touching than the solo!

Ye Weiyang, who had never participated in the ensemble and had only played the folk guitar by himself, was instantly conquered by the collision and fusion of different instrumental tones like the ensemble.
