Chapter 1287: Canon in D major

Views:

No more nonsense.

Lin Yuan mentioned polyphonic music and began to prepare to perform "Canon in D Major".

In fact.

Someone may tell you a little story about this song.

In the story.

It is said that Pachelbel, the original composer, played the Canon on the piano alone in memory of his deceased wife.

Lin Yuan wants to dispel the rumors for everyone.

Not to mention that the modern piano had not yet been invented.

Even if it was invented, Pachelbel used three violins to compose it.

Lin Yuan was puzzled for a while:

Canon is the sound of nature.

What needs to be packaged as a "tragic love story"

also.

On YouTube.

The rock version of Canon in D major arranged by Taiwanese musician JerryC has received tens of millions of views. It is said that many people who were not interested in the original version fell in love with this melody after listening to the rock version.

However, Lin Yuan feels that the original version is more appealing.

Especially in the afternoon, it is indescribably pleasant.

The rock version is for listening when you are in an excited mood, and some people may find it too noisy.

As for this version of the show.

Lin Yuan's arrangement is mainly based on violin, supplemented by piano.

With the beginning of the third song.

The cello starts by playing two bars as a harmonic unit that repeats continuously.

Then.

The three violins join in one after another with an interval of eight beats, playing exactly the same melody!

It should be monotonous.

At least that's what the sheet music says.

However, in actual listening experience, this kind of combination not only does not appear monotonous, but instead gives people a pleasant feeling of circling and turning.

After three violins.

Lin Yuan's piano officially joined in.

at this time.

The beautiful melody of Canon has been floating throughout the entire Golden Hall.

"The genius of this fish is always astonishing, how simple polyphony can be so beautiful."

It was Qu's father who spoke.

Qu Dad beside him looked admiring:

“This way of composing music is very special, like a time-space construction game, the coordination of several parts is actually the coordination of one part with itself, which is equivalent to logical self-reference.”

“If you want, this piece can be played on an infinite loop.”

“What an ingenious design.”

"I think the idea behind this song has some pop songs in it, or maybe this song can be used as a typical template for many pop songs."

“Simple yet beautiful.”

"As far as polyphonic music goes, this one ranks among the best."

“This is only the third one.”

“How many more surprises can he bring to this concert?”

"I don't know if it's surprising or not, but has the Golden Hall been upgraded?"

"Why else do these sounds sound so beautiful?"

“It seems that one can instantly sink into the world of music.”

It’s certainly not a venue upgrade.

It's just that someone secretly used a hack.

As for things like plug-ins, the experience for experts is actually not the best.

Because many masters of operation can already do it, such as understanding the expression of music, so although they can feel a hint of wonder, they just think that the music itself is well made.

It’s different for ordinary people like Tang An.

Because this is definitely the first time that many people discover that they can fully understand the expression of a piece of music without the so-called music theory knowledge!

This kind of excitement cannot be explained to outsiders.

However, after all, it was the first time in my life that I discovered that I could understand and be moved by art. Many people were particularly excited to share with their friends:

“It’s so beautiful!”

“That’s the beauty of art!”

"It makes the soul float in ecstasy!"

“Is this piece of music called Canon in D Major? I actually hope I can play it on repeat forever and never get tired of it.”

"hehe."

"Do you understand?"

"What do you mean? I don't understand. This music expresses a kind of longing, with a bit of sadness."

"Don't fool me with such repetitive words. I don't know your level of appreciation. I fell asleep when I listened to Abigail's symphony last time. Don't think I didn't see it."

"Damn, I really understand Xianyu's music!"

"What a coincidence! I also understand it. No one understands Xianyu better than me!"

Sometimes it's like this among wealthy people. They can admire various works of art even though they don't understand where the art lies in them. The reason is simply that they know it tacitly.

But today is a little special.

Because everyone present understood Xianyu’s music!

For example, the piece that is being played right now is "Canon in D Major".

However, they didn't know that others also understood, and thought that they were the only ones who understood, so the situation became very subtle:

In the Golden Hall.

Many people feel that they are the only ones who understand Xianyu’s music, who can hear the emotions in the music, and who are the ones who truly understand Xianyu.

The others are just showing off!

It's a waste to let these people listen to Xianyu's music. They can't understand anything at all. It's like playing the lute to a cow!

That's right.

Nowadays, everyone has this mentality of "others are all pretenders, the world is drunk but I am the only one sober".

This fills them with a sense of superiority.

With the blessing of this sense of superiority, their pores, which were already intoxicated by the music, completely relaxed!

So cool!

You should know that many of the wealthy people here have specially booked private rooms, and their original purpose of coming here is to discuss business.

But at this moment.

No rich person would be so vulgar. Everyone was listening to the concert with serious expressions that seemed a little pious. It was extremely grand.

No one mentioned business.

As if mentioning business would be a blasphemy to music.

This music makes them want to completely get rid of the smell of money.

For example, one of the wealthy men named Ma was secretly thinking:

"This Lao Wang said he asked me to discuss business with him, but now seeing how engrossed I am, in order to prevent me from seeing his superficiality, he actually started to listen to the concert seriously. In fact, he doesn't understand anything at all. It's really funny."

Coincidentally, Lao Wang thought so too.

In this subtle atmosphere, Lin Yuan finally finished playing "Canon in D Major".

Crash!

The audience burst into thunderous applause!

Lin Yuan was startled by the applause.

It seemed like the audience was even more enthusiastic than they had been during the first two songs!

Lin Yuan didn't know that many people here were deliberately clapping loudly to show that they could understand the music.

Okay, I’m not pretending, I really understand.

"It seems like everyone is a bosom friend of this fish."

Qu's father couldn't help but make such a comment, his tone sounding a little sour.

When he gave concerts, there were some bigwigs from the upper class who came to support him, but these bigwigs would not give such enthusiastic applause after listening to his concerts.

Father Qu beside him nodded:

"The so-called upper class likes to pretend to be cultured. Maybe Xianyu's young genius personality suits their tastes better, so they try hard to pretend that they can understand Xianyu's music to show that they are also elegant people with connotation and art."

Qu Daddy knows these so-called upper classes too well.

Love concerts

Eighty percent of people are pretending.

These Qu Dads obviously didn't know about the Golden Hall today. Not only them—

The whole room is filled with envious “friends”!
