The alarm clock at seven o'clock wakes up a new day.
"Where did Qin Jian go so early in the morning?" Wang Xiaoliang sat up in a daze and turned off the alarm clock.
Chen Tangjie also sighed and got out of bed, "I must have gone to practice piano. I can do the same as you."
"Let's hurry up and order. We'll be late and have to queue up."
The three of them washed up and left the dormitory. Zheng Feng went to the percussion classroom, and Xiaoliang and Tang Jie went to the piano room building No. 2.
There was a heated scene in front of the two piano rooms.
At eight o'clock, the campus was filled with the sound of piano and singing.
...
Teaching and Research Room 309 on the third floor of the teaching building.
Qin Jian has been in for more than an hour. Firstly, the class has not officially started yet, and secondly, he does not need professional review, so she wants to take some time to adjust the 309 Steinway.
He played the shared piano in the mobile piano room yesterday, and it felt and sounded very good. However, no matter how good it was, the quality was not as good as this seven-inch concert piano.
Especially since he is not a student of the piano department, he does not have a special key card for the Steinway piano room of the piano department.
"呠————"
After dialing the D note in the large group in the bass range, Qin Jian continued to tighten the note, stuck his head out of the piano board, returned to the piano and pressed the note.
"呠————"
Then he pressed a group of words together with this sound, "Weng————"
"It's much more balanced this time."
Nodding with satisfaction, Qin Jian began to tune the next group of notes.
An hour and a half later.
Just as he crawled out of the piano cover in disgrace, there was a knock on the door, and he quickly looked around.
A woman with black frames came in holding a thick stack of books.
Their eyes met, and both of them were shocked.
The woman pushed the frame of the mirror, as if to understand the situation.
Qin Jian was much more generous. He put the tools back into the small bag on his waist, clapped his hands to dust them off, and said directly: "Hello, senior sister."
When she heard the word "Senior Sister", the woman felt a little enlightened, but she still asked with some uncertainty: "Are you, Junior Brother Qin Jian?"
Qin Jian smiled awkwardly, "Yes."
Also, from cleaning to tuning the piano all morning, I was covered in dust and looked dirty. It was easy for people to mistake me for repairing the piano.
But now the situation is clear.
"My name is Huang Cheng," the woman put down the book in her hand, came to Qin Jian, smiled and extended her hand, "Welcome to the first little home of Huayuan."
"Originally, Brother Shuang and I agreed to pick you up together on the day of orientation, but the teacher made temporary arrangements, so I just returned to school this morning."
"I'm sorry! I'll take you for a nice walk after I finish my school work in a few days."
"Senior sister, I'm seeing you. I'm very happy to be here." Qin Jian shook the other person's hand politely.
"I'm also very happy. After staying in school for almost seven years, I finally have a junior brother!"
"Ha~"
The two chatted and laughed for a while, and Huang Cheng enthusiastically introduced Qin Jian to this major in more detail.
"Senior sister, I would like to ask you what the task assigned by the teacher you just mentioned is?" Qin Jian asked curiously, "Is it convenient to reveal it?"
"What's the inconvenience of this?" Huang Cheng said, "Some time ago, the Jin City Song and Dance Theater was rehearsing "Woman's Heart", and they asked the teacher to be the artistic director, but the teacher let me go."
"Is it Mozart's woman's heart?" Qin Jian became interested.
"Yes, besides Mozart, is there any woman with a heart?" Huang Cheng said with a smile, "You didn't choose this major just on a whim, right?"
Qin Jian scratched his head and said, "I like it, but there is also a small amount of whim."
"You're similar to me. I've loved the opera stage since I was a child, but it's a pity that I don't have a good voice, so I ended up here." There was some regret in Huang Cheng's words.
"However, it is also very cool to be able to guide an opera troupe to rehearse an opera according to your understanding, hahaha~"
"That's right," Qin Jian agreed, and continued to ask, "Senior sister, does our major have the opportunity to contact many opera troupes?"
"The first time I came into contact with an opera troupe was when I was in the first year of graduate school. The teacher assigned a topic on 'Restoration of Costumes in Italian Operas'. Brother Shuang happened to be supervising the production of a Rossini opera at that time, so he brought me along.
Already."
"Is stage costume a stage costume?" Qin Jian's interest became more and more intense, "Is this also our topic?"
"Of course, from actors' scripts to stage costumes, these are all issues we need to study."
Huang Cheng pushed up the frame again, "A successful opera is put on the stage, and there is a strict system behind it."
Qin Jian nodded seriously and said with a smile: "Senior sister, don't mind talking more."
Huang Cheng smiled and said, "To give you a simple example, take costumes as an example. They are designed based on the time, place and characters of the story."
"Take the Italian classic play "Tosca" as an example. The story is set in Rome in 1800. In the first scene of the church, when the heroine appears on the stage, what should her costume be like? First of all, her role is a
For female singers, you have to consider the dressing style of Italian female singers in the 19th century, rococo style, rolled skirts, and even hip pads."
"This alone is not enough. There are styles of clothing, and there are also sophisticated sanctions. In the 18th century, industrial progress made the popular fabrics for women's clothing not limited to thin cotton. White linen and tulle with fine textures were even more popular among young people.
Favored by women.”
At this point, Huang Cheng stopped, "The knowledge here is definitely not something people can simply see in the audience."
"But we have to bring the opera back to the stage in a rigorous way."
"Opera is both a stage form and a reappearance of history."
"The teacher told me this when I was in class for the first time."
After a moment, Qin Jian sighed softly, "The teacher said it well."
The knowledge involved here is really too broad.
Qin Jian said again: "Senior sister is amazing."
"No, it's not even scratching the surface. When you graduate from undergraduate degree, you can do it," Huang Cheng sighed, pointing to the wall of books behind him, "There are actually not many courses in our major, and the remaining
All the books are here. This is the teacher’s collection of books. I’ve only read a quarter of it, and Brother Shuang has read half of it.”
Qin Jian sighed again in his heart. He still remembered the misunderstanding about the opera last time.
moment.
"Senior sister, have you done any research on Carmen?"
"What do you mean?"
"Whatever, just like the characteristics of women's costumes in this opera."
"It's still very broad," Huang Cheng thought for a moment and said: "A complete Carmen has more than three hundred female costumes alone, but they are basically in the style of Gypsy girls' long skirts, mostly made of linen.
Pasting craftsmanship.”
“It’s very particular about shape and detail, but it also adds to the bohemian energy and flair of the story.”
"To put it simply, it's probably like this,"
"Why, are you interested in Carmen?" Huang Cheng asked.
Qin Jian nodded, "Senior sister, what I'm saying is, if I want to arrange a scene of Carmen in a short time, that is to simplify the stage scenery and costumes as much as possible, do you think it is possible?"
"Which clip?"
"Love is as free as a bird."
"Is there a group?"
"Suppose there is a one-pipe orchestra."
"Is there a choir?"
"Suppose there is a four-part choir of less than 20 people."
