Qi Mu reached out and pushed open the dark brown mahogany door. The moment the door was pushed open, a melodious and beautiful sound of music came out through the gap.
Naturally, the rehearsal hall does not need to be designed as a wrap-around audience seat like a concert hall. Even the rehearsal halls of many music colleges are just large classrooms with general sound insulation: there are only seats for the members of the symphony orchestra, and there is no audience seat.
But Bai Ai's rehearsal hall is obviously a big deal.
Qi Mu looked around and saw that there were at least 300 seats. In front of these seats, there is a stage about half a meter above the ground. At this moment, the red curtains on both sides are completely opened, and nearly a hundred people are sitting on the stage where the lights are gathered.
Qi Mu recognized the piece after listening to a short melody. He lowered his voice and turned to ask, "Are you rehearsing Tchaikovsky's Sixth Symphony in B Minor?"
After the two walked into the rehearsal hall, Min Chen gently closed the door. His movements were so light that he hardly noticed anyone on the stage. Only Daniel, who was sitting in the front row of the audience, looked at him in surprise. them.
"Well, Tchaikovsky's repertoire is tentatively scheduled for the autumn global tour, and the first one is currently being rehearsed." Min Chen led Qi Mu straight to the direction of the auditorium, and he whispered as he walked. : "The orchestra has performed this "Sixth" once before, so it's still very familiar."
Qi Mu nodded when he heard the words, but didn't speak again.
The Berlin Philharmonic is really keen on the minimalist style of the Bauhaus. This rehearsal hall is not as splendid as many concert halls in Vienna, but mainly in black and white, like the black and white keys of a piano. The lines express the flowing beauty of the music.
In such a rehearsal hall, even the seats are the simplest style. In that clean white, Qi Mu actually saw the only sitting Daniel at first glance, but to his surprise, Min Chen took him directly around Daniel who kept waving and smiling. , but went to the seats in the next two rows and sat down.
Daniel: "… "
Qi Mu: "..."
Seemingly aware of the youth's confusion, Min Chen pulled out the chair beside him and sat down, speaking in a low voice, "This seat has the best acoustics in the audience. Although it's just rehearsals now, Kodori will also lead the orchestra to perform. , it's best to sit here and listen."
Qi Mu: "...Really?"
Min Chen nodded calmly: "Really."
Qi Mu couldn't help frowning: "Then why is Daniel sitting so close?"... Shouldn't he be sitting here in general
Min Chen raised his eyes slightly and glanced at Daniel who was not far away, and replied, "His eyes are not good, he's looking at the wrong place."
Qi Mu: "..."
Daniel: "..." Please, he heard it all!
On the stage, Kodori was standing in front of the whole orchestra, leading the whole group to rehearse the second movement of Tchaikovsky's Sixth Symphony. As the principal of the orchestra, in the absence of the conductor, Kodori took on the task of guiding the orchestra. And obviously, he did a good job of this task.
So when Qi Mu heard the soft and gentle melody, he couldn't help but closed his eyes, as if immersed in this low and sad song.
The second movement of Tchaikovsky's "Sixth Symphony" is a gentle adagio, the rhythm is very slow, but it is not as pleasant and comfortable as the "Serenade", but rather sad and depressed.
Listening to such a moving melody, Qi Mu couldn't help but frown at the sadness in the music. He could hear that this song is indeed a little bit worse than Bai Ai's stage level, but it can basically be performed as a performance by a normal orchestra.
This is the level of Bai Ai, who has only rehearsed a piece for a few days, and can play a first-class melody even under the guidance of the principal violinist rather than the official conductor.
Of course, at the end of the second movement, Qi Mu also heard that the timpani rhythm seemed to be missing a beat, and someone in the cello group made a wrong note. This kind of small mistake is still within the scope of Qi Mu's understanding, so he ignores it for the time being.
When the last note was over, Qi Mu couldn't help clapping, sending respect and encouragement to the musicians on the stage.
Suddenly hearing applause from the audience, Ke Duoli, who had just removed the bow from the strings, was stunned for a moment, then looked down, and suddenly saw a black-haired young man who described Li Li. The name "Little Angel" flashed quickly in his mind, and before Kedori could react, the members of Bai Ai around him exploded—
"My God! Little Angel?!"
"Oh god, when did Angel come and I didn't notice?!"
"I was telling McCann yesterday that the little angel hasn't called the commander for a long time. Why did the little angel appear today?!"
…
Kedori shook his head helplessly, thinking silently in his heart: You never thought about it, it's right that your Angel is here, but... Who brought him here
Sure enough, but for a moment—
"Oh my God, next to the little angel is... the commander is back!"
"God, you must be joking with me. Didn't Daniel say that the conductor asked for a two-day vacation?"
"That's right, we promised to come back tomorrow..."
…
The rehearsal hall was originally designed to allow the audience to hear better acoustics. Its building materials and curved design were deliberately constructed for sound transmission. Coupled with Qi Mu's excellent ear skills, he could easily use these or excitement. Or the sound of complaining is heard.
Qi Mu couldn't help but wonder: some people speak German, some speak English, and some speak French... How on earth is this communication
Of course, Qi Mu didn't know that when the members of Bai Ai saw their demon command, they didn't care about the common language, they scolded themselves in their native dialect before speaking. It's not enough to speak other languages, you must bring a dialect accent, the more remote the better.
There was once a new member who was really badly trained by Min Chen. After he complained and muttered in Albanian "I don't want to come back to Bo Ai in my next life", Min Chen put down the baton in his hand and his face was expressionless. Looking at him, he also replied in Albanian: "Then you can leave now."
As a conductor, Min Chen is undoubtedly very talented. At least the mistakes and areas for improvement he pointed out have really achieved results, which made the members of Bo Ai have to be amazed. But as a peer or even a junior...
Their command is still too vicious and cruel, isn't it? ! !
—Bo loves the voice of everyone.
Under the bright spotlight, all the exaggerated expressions of Bo Ai members caught Qi Mu's eyes, causing him to turn his head to look at the man beside him, dumbfounded, and asked in a low voice, "They seem to be... very afraid of you?"
Hearing this, Min Chen raised an eyebrow: "You heard it wrong."
Compared with the man in front of him who had no credibility, Qi Mu certainly trusted his own ears more. He shook his head slightly and repeated: "They are indeed afraid of you."
Min Chen: "..."
Under the suspicious eyes of the young man, as if to prove that he was indeed a "gentle and kind" person, Min Chen left the auditorium and walked down the long aisle with his slender legs towards the stage.
The members of Bai Ai all widened their eyes and watched the man get closer and closer in horror. When Min Chen actually stepped on the stage and picked up the baton placed on the podium, some people collapsed inside. Cow face.
Raid is not enough... but also direct rehearsal? !
They don't want you, they want the gentle and kind Kodori! ! !
Under the stage, Qi Mu's brows frowned slightly, with a smile on his face watching the excitement, looking at the tall and handsome back of the man on the stage. Of course he knew what Min Chen meant, it seemed...
Does this person want to rehearse for him to see in person, to clear up his grievances that he is clearly "kind-hearted"
Qi Mu smiled in a low voice and waited calmly for a good show.
On the stage, Min Chen flipped through the score on the podium, then turned to look at Kedori who had returned to his seat, and asked, "Only the score for the second movement?"
Hearing this, Kedori nodded with a smile, and replied, "Yes, I plan to rehearse the second movement this afternoon, so I only prepared the score for this movement last night."
On the large score of A3 paper size placed on the podium, the fine notation of each instrument part is printed. It is obvious that this score does not belong to Min Chen, because some points of attention are densely marked on it, especially in the score part of the violin group, which is marked with a lot.
Min Chen casually glanced at it and closed the sheet music gently.
Kodori does have a good talent, but he is never a conductor. This score does not mean much to Min Chen.
So, Min Chen directly raised the baton, clicked on the third fat man from the left of the cello group, and said, "Case, tighten your g-string. Although it is still in tune, but I don't want you to only last five minutes."
The fat man called "Case" started to compare the pitch without saying a word, but for a moment, Min Chen looked around the entire orchestra for a week, and said in a flat tone: "The second movement is basically enough, we are now directly practicing the third movement."
Bai loves everyone: "… "
"I hope that tomorrow afternoon, I can see the excellent you finish this simple movement smoothly."
Bai Aizhong: "..." Are you kidding me
As if unaware of the murderous gazes of everyone in the orchestra, the handsome and elegant man raised the baton, gently raised it, and a rapid and rapid violin sounded.
