Chapter 153 Sleeping for the exam? The commotion in the corridor
Music theory is a very boring subject that doesn’t require any interaction. - From a music teacher who doesn’t like to practice piano.
Whether for beginners or music students in the art examination stage.
This is true whether you are an undergraduate student or a graduate student majoring in music performance.
For 90% of music students.
The most valuable thing about music theory is that as a professional basic course, it can provide you with several credit points for your college career.
To be honest, except for music students who choose composition and theory as their main majors, the music theory level of most other majors has already passed its peak after their art exams.
It couldn't be more real.
but.
Qin Jian's music theory is very strong.
As for how strong he is, in the professional composite music theory written test for university entrance, he quickly handed in the paper in twelve minutes.
Finally, I got full marks - exemption from music theory course.
Even though this is all just once.
But at this moment.
Facing the white test paper that he had not seen for a long time, Qin Jian looked at the familiar questions one after another.
It was as if I suddenly found the feeling I had before.
'A'
Qin Jian wrote down the options for the first multiple-choice question.
After scanning the stem of the second question, I wrote down the answer to the second question without thinking.
‘C’
Then, the third question, ‘B’.
'D'
‘C’
'D'
'B'
'B'
'D'
....
Less than five minutes after the exam started, Qin Jian had already completed the last multiple-choice question.
【10.Which of the following sets of velocity marks are arranged in order from weakest to strongest()】
A. p—mf—mp
B.mp—p—mf
C.mf—mp—p
D.p—mp—mf
"The last question is indeed this one."
Qin Jian sighed secretly in his heart and wrote down the last option.
...
After completing the multiple choice questions.
In the following fill-in-the-blank questions and questions on interval and chord composition, Qin Jian once again showed his amazing speed.
...
Time passes minute by minute.
In the quiet examination room, four invigilators came and went.
Some candidates were biting their pens and frowning, while others were quietly looking around, observing the movements of the invigilator.
However, most candidates still seem to be answering the questions smoothly. After all, as a set of test papers for the provincial joint examination, it is much simpler than the test questions for individual admissions to major music colleges.
Sudden.
A figure suddenly stood up, holding the test paper and walking towards the podium.
It caused a commotion.
"This man is so fast."
"Awesome."
"Really or not, I haven't finished the multiple choice questions yet."
Suddenly, there was a burst of whispers in the examination room.
At the podium.
The examiner took the test paper handed over by the boy, looked at it, and then nodded, indicating that he could leave.
At this moment, it is only twenty-five minutes before the exam starts.
The boy who handed in the paper walked toward the classroom door with a different kind of confidence under the envious eyes of everyone.
...
However.
Qin Jian did not witness this scene.
He had already fallen asleep comfortably on the desk.
In the dead of winter, there are no classrooms in the corridors.
...
"Ding--------"
A bell rang in the examination room.
"carry out an assignment."
Following the examiner's order, the candidates stood up one after another.
Qin Jianmi also got up in confusion and groaned comfortably.
Then he stood up unsteadily, picked up the test paper on the table and walked towards the podium.
.......
The one-hour music theory exam is over.
"This year's music theory questions are too difficult."
"Yeah, I haven't even finished writing the rest."
"It's over, it's over, what if I can't pass the joint entrance examination?"
“If we really can’t do it, we can come back next year.”
“Next year? I’ve been repeating my studies for two years!!”
"Hey, I can only hope that this year's sight-singing and ear-training exam will be simpler."
After the music theory exam ended, the corridor outside the examination room became noisy again.
At this moment, the school's announcement rang again.
"Candidates, please note that the sight-singing and ear-training exam will begin at 10:20 in the lecture theater No. 1 on the second floor of the teaching building."
"Dear candidates, please note..."
...
As two of the three basic music subjects, ‘sight-singing’ and ‘ear training’ are also compulsory subjects for every candidate.
The sight-singing test is mainly an examination of the candidate's music reading skills, music understanding ability, and accumulation of musical materials.
Candidates need to independently use the combination of vision, hearing and feeling to perform the test, and sing out the selected questions, which will be scored by the examiner.
The ear training test is an examination of the candidate's ability to listen to music and memorize it.
Candidates need to record all the content played by the examiner on the piano in writing on the test paper, and the examiner will finally give the score.
In short, sight-singing and ear training are much more difficult than music theory.
slightly.
.......
A corner of a messy corridor.
"Brother Jian, what should I do about sight-singing and ear training?" The fat man looked at Qin Jian bitterly and sighed, "Hey, my singing is always out of tune, and I can only listen to simple music."
Qin Jian can't help with the fat man's problem.
For all candidates, sight-singing and ear training depend 90% on accumulation and 10% on talent.
But fat people only account for half of their talents.
"Just try your best, the joint entrance examination questions won't be too difficult." Qin Jian sighed.
And just when he was about to continue speaking.
"Qin Jian!"
A clear shout came from the front.
Qin Jian looked up and saw two girls walking towards them, one with a smirk on his face and the other with a cello on his back.
And with this cry.
Everyone looked here in surprise.
Beside the window sill, a tall and thin figure was huddled under the brim of his coat.
...
Qin Jian.
A name that has long been resounding throughout the Nanshi classical music circle.
Huayun Competition, representing Quan Province.
Four rounds of competition, standing till the end.
Finally, in the much-anticipated final, a Rhapsody on a Paganini theme swept over the top players from all over the country.
Representing all art students in Quan Province, they won the most important championship trophy.
In particular, his stunning floral pathos at the end of the closing ceremony was highly praised by everyone, leading many piano majors to imitate it.
But most people have only seen this rumored name on TV.
At this moment, the figure under the golden stage on the screen appeared in the crowd's field of vision, which indeed had to arouse strong curiosity.
Coupled with the sudden appearance of two beautiful girls.
More and more attention is focused on this place.
.......
Looking helplessly at the girl in front of him, Qin Jian was already preparing to pick up the fat man who was surrounded by him.
"Dear candidates, please note that the sight-singing and ear training is about to begin...
"Dear candidates, please note..."
As the announcement sounded again, the attention of everyone in the corridor returned to the exam, and they rushed to their respective examination rooms one after another.
Seeing this, Qin Jian breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the girl in front of him and spread her hands, "The exam is over."
The girl lowered her head and looked at her watch, and hummed repeatedly, "Huh, wait for me at the school gate after the exam, and you promised to come back and treat me to dinner, you big liar."
With that said, he pulled the cello girl beside him who was still confused and left.
Looking at the two girls' backs, the fat man seemed to have come to his senses.
"Damn it, Brother Jian, you guys really know each other."
"When have I ever lied to you?"
"Then tell me what happened. When did we meet? Why didn't I know? And why did you invite her to dinner?"
