Chapter 659 The harmonica version of 'So Many People in This World' (1/2 Monthly Ticket)
"Which song do you want to hear?"
Yang Qian grabbed two harmonicas, looked at his wife, and asked gently.
He has been studying the harmonica for several months. Although he has not practiced as much as the guzheng, he has a very solid musical foundation and the process of getting started and proficient is very fast.
It can be said that Yang Qian's harmonica can be played on stage. Compared with harmonica masters, he just lacks the feeling of integrating human and piano - this requires more practice and practice.
"Well, how about listening to "So Many People in the World"?"
Dai Yuni tilted her head and thought about it, and the name of this song came to her mind.
She liked this song very much, but now she thought about it, it was actually because it was the last song they listened to after the concert in Holland two days ago - even though it was sung by Liang Jianhui.
They were busy flying and arranging food and accommodation for their relatives in the past two days. Even Yang Qian was exhausted and wanted to lie down when he had free time. He had no time to practice singing.
"Okay, let me think about it and use this blues..."
Yang Qian weighed it with his left and right hands, and finally used the small and exquisite ten-hole harmonica in his right hand.
"What does blues mean? Doesn't it mean that this longer one is more suitable for playing pop music?"
Dai Yuni pointed curiously at the long chromatic harmonica that Yang Qian put in.
She really didn't understand. She only got a rough understanding of it when consulting with her friend Xiao Yansheng, who sells musical instruments.
"It can't be said that the musical instrument is always just an auxiliary. In fact, various music forms can be integrated into pop music. When a blues tone is needed, it can also play pop music. The advantage of the chromatic scale may be that it can play pop music.
If the concert is a little easier, for example, if you play the bass range 4/6, the difficulty of blues will become very difficult..."
Yang Qian tried his best to speak in words that Dai Yuni could understand.
"Then why do you still use blues?"
Dai Yuni blinked her eyes.
"Because for me, the difficulty of suppressing the sound does not exist."
Yang Qian chuckled.
Dai Yuni was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and a question mark popped up in her head as to what "pressed sound" was, but she didn't want to get to the bottom of it, so she just laughed:
"You Thirteen pretend to be beaten, but I like it!"
The young couple looked at each other on the beach and laughed happily.
Let’s start playing the tune!
Yang Qian first took the harmonica, put it to his mouth and played a few notes to test the effect.
The tone was indeed very comfortable, and he felt a look of satisfaction on his face as he played it. This piano was indeed a top brand, and it was several times better than the practice piano he bought before.
When he put it back to his mouth, Yang Qian seemed to be closing the small harmonica with his hands, but when he blew it gently, the melodious and soft melody slowly played in the slightly melancholy tone of the blues harmonica.
flow out.
She has a very stable breath. Although Dai Yuni doesn't know how to harmonica, she looked at Yang Qian who seemed to blow out the first long melody of "There are so many people in this world" without even taking a breath. Her crooked smile filled her eyes.
I couldn't help but burst into admiration. (Note 1)
So beautiful!
This kind of melody is neither impatient nor impatient, just like a violin played at midnight, quietly opening the door of the listener's heart.
"In my hazy eyes, there will always be
The first time I saw you in the blue morning..."
Dai Yuni gently shook her head to listen, but couldn't help but opened her lips lightly and hummed along in a low voice.
barn
She didn't want to sing too loudly because she was afraid that her singing voice would cover up the sound of Yang Qian's harmonica.
Although the tone of the blues harmonica is a bit deep and melancholy, if you listen to this piece at night, it will definitely be a depressive style, but from a musical perspective, Dai Yuni feels like she is trapped.
"The gray leaves are drifting in the pond,
Watching the plane roar to a distant land..."
Although from a musical perspective, these melodies are enough to make people intoxicated.
But who can ignore Yang Qian's playing?
Every note he played had no virtuosity, but was still full of emotion. When Dai Yuni hummed along, she couldn't help but have tears in her eyes.
"The corridor of time..."
It's as if there is really a picture displayed in front of you, and the feeling of time traveling and turmoil comes to your face!
"A few frames of the past flashed in the evening wind,
It was spinning while flying and disappeared..."
Dai Yuni has actually sung this song many times, so it stands to reason that she will no longer have such great emotional ups and downs because of this song.
But this was the first time she sang softly along with the harmonica solo.
The tone of the blues solo seems to have a magical power, drawing people into the scene at once.
Speeding cars, rotating wooden horses, dim lights, these images are all lonely, bleak and cold in the night.
Only the people and the music were left alone!
How can you not be sad?
Of course, to have such an effect, the original song deserves a lot of credit, but Yang Qian's performance can bring this emotional effect to the extreme.
And Dai Yuni is also a person who loves music. It is normal for her to be emotional because of music.
"Would it be too sad?"
Yang Qian saw that his wife couldn't hum anymore and had tears in her eyes, so he just blew it once and then stopped and asked softly.
"No, actually it sounds too good."
After the music stopped, Dai Yuni quickly came to her senses. She took the tissue from Yang Qian, wiped her eyes gently, and smiled with him.
"I'd better change to another song. What should I play? Something lighter? Or something more fun?"
Yang Qian didn't want to see his wife cry. Although it was not a very sad cry, when she was pregnant, she had to smile more and be more happy.
"It's okay! I like listening to them all! Is it a new song?"
Dai Yuni picked up the drink on the table next to her, took a sip happily, and looked at him expectantly.
"The new song... is fine too, I'll give it a try."
Yang Qian remembered a song, an episode from an animated movie that he liked very much in the music library, but because his vocal range was still limited, it was not easy to sing it.
But playing it on the harmonica is not difficult for Yang Qian at all!
And this song is quite suitable for the strange seascape in front of us - the rugged and weird rock island, the quiet green sea, the leisurely wind, the white yacht...
(Note 1: "So Many People in the World" is really nice to play on the blues harmonica. Of course, it also depends on who plays it. Xiaohan will put it in the easter egg chapter later and show you a video of it played by teacher Zhang Xiaosong.
Teacher Zhang Xiaosong is a very famous blues harmonica player. Of course, he is not as famous as Teacher Yang Le in terms of harmonica, but he is also
She participated in "I Am a Singer" and played "Red Rose" for Han Hong in 2013. She used blues and played a very bluesy intro. There is also the famous song "Kill That SJZ Man" from Magnum Youth Hostel.
He also plays the harmonica. It goes without saying that Teacher Zhang Xiaosong’s skills are all appreciated by everyone!)
