Anyway, some things left by our ancestors.
It is indeed quite evil.
Sometimes you think this stuff is stupid, but it actually conforms to scientific principles.
There are some outrageous things that cannot be explained by science.
But riding a horse is surprisingly accurate.
Shen Tuan felt very strange.
He immediately changed the subject.
Otherwise, the Taoist heart will easily be broken.
“Then what’s the content of the dance drama named after Five Stars Out of the East?”
Hear Shen Tuan's question.
Li Jinglin curled his lips.
"No matter what he talks about, write it first and then talk about it. How to extend it later? Just let it happen."
"?"
Shen Tuan was stunned.
"Okay, okay, write it down first and then talk about it."
God, let it happen.
Some black lines appeared on Shen Tuan's face.
"Anyway, if it doesn't work, you can extend it to a few other dance dramas. After all, this variety show shouldn't have just one story or one dance drama."
Li Jinglin spread his hands.
"This time I will be responsible for imagining the texture issues to my heart's content, and leave the dance and content to you."
"."
Although Shen Tuan wanted to complain.
But in fact, the relationship between music and dance is that there is music first, and then the dance is choreographed based on the music.
But here's the thing.
Most of this progress occurs when the music is being created and there is already a concrete story copy.
Go around the center.
Li Jinglin's approach is different.
He directly gives a kind of charm, abstract image, and a vague and hazy texture.
Then create content around this texture.
This approach is not uncommon.
But it tests each other's imagination very much.
"I've written a little too much title music, and you're not allowed to play it casually?"
"."
"Anyway, I will probably design a musical composition for you by then, and you will design the dance and plot yourself."
The two of them looked a little numb.
Li Jinglin curled his lips.
Sighed.
"What's important is feeling. If I continue to write propositional essays, I always feel that my imagination will be limited."
"Dunhuang is a very mysterious culture. I think that if I want to express this mystery, I must first make myself mysterious. As long as I don't know what story to describe and let my imagination run wild, the music I make must be very mysterious. mystery."
"Okay, okay, Mr. Li, you come first, first come."
A black line appeared on Captain Shen's face.
Talk about imagination and limitations.
In fact, I am too lazy to write essays and want to be free to let myself go.
However, musicians think this way.
Captain Shen is quite understandable.
Moreover, Li Jinglin said, "As long as I don't know what is written, it will be very mysterious."
Although it sounds a bit problematic.
But it’s actually true.
Vision is figurative.
But hearing is often abstract.
Music can be abstract or figurative.
If.
The pipa music I collaborated with teacher Zhao Mingya is mainly about images, focusing on portraying the sense of story.
So this time the composition.
It is rendering the atmosphere, rendering the hazy picture, mainly with an abstract feeling.
"It doesn't matter, I don't care anyway."
suddenly.
Shen Tuan seemed to have figured something out and immediately lost all pressure.
Some even couldn't help but laugh.
"At most, I am responsible for the preparations for the president. The ones who are troubled are the screenwriters and choreographers."
"Okay, then it doesn't matter to the three of us, just let them fly and that's it."
The three of them looked at each other.
Suddenly everyone smiled meaningfully.
Time keeps passing.
Tuan Shen was in Henan and was responsible for contacting Lao Tang from the TV station and conducting some discussions on the structure and details of the entire program.
Luo Shiyao, on the other hand, returned to the capital and was always on standby.
Li Jinglin returned to Chengdu.
The production of "Pesticide Pipa" has reached the middle stage. The composition and arrangement have been completed, and recording, mixing, and preparation for release have begun.
In this spare time, I naturally began to create a series of music for the dance drama "Five Stars Out of the East".
After having a clear choice goal in terms of mode, rhythm, and instruments.
It's going very quickly.
certainly.
Li Jinglin was not in a hurry to start quickly, but began to roam on the Internet.
Clicking on one video after another about Western culture or Western programs.
Then read the comments one by one.
[What a mysterious feeling. 】
[It’s very strange. But it has an exotic texture]
【so weird! This is really weird, but it feels very special]
Li Jinglin frowned and concluded.
for a broad audience.
Talking about Western Culture
In cognition, it seems to be linked to the word "mystery".
Moreover, it all seems to sound "weird".
"mystery."
Li Jinglin raised his eyebrows.
In the culture of the Western Regions, there is such a name that is most "mysterious" and also the most well-known.
【Jingjue Ancient City】
Thanks to a certain big shot.
The ancient city of Jingjue is indeed known to many people.
Even if you don’t know the specific thing.
But at least I know the name, and I also know that this thing is very "mysterious".
So, composing music around exquisite stories and images can definitely make people feel mysterious, and at the same time, it can also be spread widely.
and.
That 1,700 years ago, the national treasure-level cultural relic of "Five Stars Emerging from the East", Shu Brocade.
It was excavated in the "Niya Ruins".
That is, the country of Jingjue.
It can well express the image of the opening up of the Silk Road, connecting the Western Regions, and cultural integration.
So, Li Jinglin started.
in music creation.
Want to express mystery.
Scales and drumbeats can all make a fuss.
But it is one of the best ways to expand the mystery hidden inside the notes dozens of times.
Naturally it’s the “human voice”.
Especially the electronically processed vocals that sound like gold and iron.
Multi-track vocal singing with a religious quality always gives people a sense of "solemnity" and "mystery".
The mystery of the human voice can also better bring out the role of the main melody - Kubuzi.
In the music of a popular variety show, Kazakh musical instruments are used, with Kubuz as the protagonist.
In the entire popular forum, it is really rare.
Various unpopular musical instruments from China are also used in the music.
This feels quite refreshing, like a "cultural propaganda messenger".
Although everyone may not know it.
You may not be able to hear it.
Seems "meaningless".
But as a creator, you must know and do it.
There is no script.
Li Jinglin's imagination began to expand rapidly.
It is based on what I know about the stories of the Western Regions and the cultural integration of the Western Regions.
and prospects for the future modern Silk Road.
Under conception.
It's like walking into the mysterious Western Region and passing through the uninhabited desert.
In the steaming heat.
Gradually we can see ahead, the cultural area where China and the Western Regions intersect.
It's like an ancient bazaar that combines East and West.
Spices, silk, Sichuan brocade, melons and fruits
On the streets of the market, there are Western merchants who are beating exotic tambourines and playing Western musical instruments in an attempt to attract customers.
Completely different costumes, looks, and looks. A girl from the Western Region dancing in mysterious dances.
Anyway.
All kinds of images, Gil began to think about, like a fragmented montage.
Keep flashing in my mind.
The framework and lines of the music began to take shape naturally.
Mystery is the easiest thing to stimulate the imagination.
The more unbridled your imagination is, the more inspiration you can bring to your collaborators.
soon.
Li Jinglin sent the first draft of the demo to Shen Tuan and Luo Shiyao.
Let them go to the choreographer and screenwriter first.
When the choreographer and screenwriters get the music.
People are kind of stupid.
Family members, who knows?
They said nothing.
A piece of music was thrown over, the title was "Five Stars Out of the East", and soon after a series of keywords such as "Silk Road", "Western Culture" and "Dunhuang" were explained, it was gone.
Gone!
"Good guy, I didn't expect this method."
The screenwriter scratched his head.
After looking at each other, the choreographer couldn't help but give each other a wry smile.
In the past, it was the screenwriters who presented difficult problems to the composition teachers.
Now the tide has turned.
"Then you make it up first? Give me the story and I will think about the choreography carefully."
The choreographer smiled.
I'm going to slip away first as a courtesy.
Before leaving, he left a few words.
"Oh, by the way, the Fu Dao Hua teachers are still waiting. We are all waiting for you. Come on."
"."
The screenwriting teacher had a dark look on his face.
I had to listen to the demo of this piece of music over and over again.
However, fortunately, Li Jinglin let his imagination run wild, and the whole piece was rendered very exotic and mysterious.
So, bite the bullet.
The screenwriting teacher began to imagine stories about the "Silk Road", "Western Regions" and "Jingjue".
Immediately, I wrote the application scenario of this song.
The universal “banquet”.
then.
The pressure came to the choreographer.
Listening to this music, this image of "banquet"
The choreographer's scalp was numb.
But he is an old dancer after all.
Soon, the best way to deal with it was revealed.
"Zhezhi dance or Hu Xuan dance are both fine. Forget it, it doesn't matter what kind of dance it is. Just make up a dance to the music and rhythm."
After all.
Modern work of art.
After all, there will be many elements in it.
This does not mean that Hu Xuan Dance must not contain the content of Zhe Zhi Dance.
ballet.
In other words, "Dancing for a Thousand Years" is a dance entertainment program similar to a dance drama.
It must be a "story" that is told.
Music depicts stories, and dance depicts music.
The audience doesn't care what style you are in.
Music must have feeling.
Dance should be smooth.
That's enough.
then.
Through mutual cooperation and discussion among the teachers.
The choreography and screenwriting aspects are also constantly advancing.
And Li Jinglin, who just sent the demo of his music work.
Then I received an invitation from the program team of "National Treasure".
At this point, the show has come to an end.
But because the response was very good, the popularity was very high.
Therefore, under the strong suggestions of many viewers, "National Treasure" before launching the next season.
First, the grand finale party of the first season was launched.
If we say that the content of the first season of "National Treasure" is more biased towards the narrative of cultural relics, it is a little too stretched in terms of cultural and creative works.
The large-scale party on the grand night will be more focused on artistic entertainment.
It’s not just Li Jinglin.
At least most of the teachers who had participated in the "National Treasure" program before were recalled.
Among them is Zhao Mingya.
so.
The two of them got on the plane to the capital together.
Nothing was delayed.
We went directly to CCTV for a mobilization meeting before the party.
"Professor Li, your task is very simple. As the music director, you are responsible for organizing the music project of the entire evening party."
The general control issued mission instructions.
Couldn't help but glance at Li Jinglin.
He spoke cheerfully.
"Because Professor Li's music is so popular, too many people have strongly requested to see the national team leaders perform these pieces in person."
"Hahaha!"
Several colleagues around him couldn't help but chuckle.
after all.
This wave of soundtrack albums by Li Jinglin is indeed quite impressive.
"As we all know, our "National Treasure" is a music variety show."
"Haha, I originally thought that too excellent music might take over the spotlight, but I never expected that these cultural relics and music are really different."
"Made, what you wrote is so awesome, fuck me."
"Haha, don't get excited."
All of a sudden.
The atmosphere suddenly became lively.
The chief controller looked at it with a smile and did not feel displeased.
"Wherever there is, there is still progress."
Li Jinglin smiled sheepishly.
Immediately, the conversation changed with great traces, and the topic was changed.
"However, speaking of which, I happened to be working on some works on the other side during this period, which were about Silk Road culture."
Even though I know I am changing the subject.
but.
Li Jinglin's words still aroused everyone's interest.
The Silk Road cultural performance has always been a relatively important thing.
Everyone knows that musicians like Li Jinglin will never miss such a task.
This is not something he wants to do, it is something he must do.
"Huh? Don't you play the violin anymore?"
The controller raised his eyebrows.
Some asked half-jokingly.
"No more pulling, no more pulling."
Li Jinglin shook his head repeatedly.
"This thing has to be brought out when facing European and American musicians. It is not needed for Silk Road."
"Good guy, you are so hostile!"
The controller's eyes widened.
Then he laughed heartily.
"But I like it."
"Originally it was going to be on another variety show, but coincidentally, the content of this work is also partially related to the cultural relic Sichuan Brocade."
Li Jinglin pinched his chin.
He raised his head and looked at the controller.
"If possible, I think you can discuss it, carry out a wave of cultural and creative linkage, catch each other's enthusiasm, vigorously promote the works, Dunhuang dance, Silk Road, Shu brocade cultural relics, and the influence of culture and history."
"Maybe it can bring a lot of popularity."
"Hey, good boy, if I really have you, it's indeed quite maneuverable."
The controller's eyes suddenly lit up.
After pondering for a moment, he nodded repeatedly.
"Well, let me ask. If possible, we can take advantage of the popularity of our finale to help advertise for "Dancing for a Thousand Years". After the production is completed, we can also link it up again. , the linkage comes back to form a closed loop.”
"Tsk, win-win!"
The music is already on the playlist.
"Five Stars Out of the East", if you want to watch the dance, you can search for "The Call of the Ancients"
p.s. I’m afraid someone might skip the order, so I’ll say it again.
