"Brother Lin, you are so fierce."
One of Wu Xia's graduate students couldn't help but praise him.
Although this graduate student is older than Li Jinglin.
But the cry of brother really came from the heart.
after all.
This kind of knowledge about musical instruments.
In the eyes of people who don't understand music, it's awesome, but in the eyes of people who know music, it's even more awesome.
"How can you remember so many such unpopular musical instruments?"
In admiration.
The graduate student couldn't help but feel weird.
Although it is from the vocal music department.
But he also knows a lot about musical instruments.
You must know that the family of musical instruments is a very large system, with various types, large and small, and there are many differences.
How can anyone dare to claim to know all the musical instruments?
No matter how top-notch a professor is, he still has blind spots in knowledge.
The professor of applied physics probably knows a lot about quantum physics, but even though it is physics, it is impossible for him to know quantum physics completely by heart, to such an extent.
But.
Face this problem.
Li Jinglin's answer was quite unexpected.
"Ah? Carry it on your back. Just carry it down."
Scratched his head.
Li Jinglin was in a daze.
after all.
own knowledge
It is indeed carried on the back.
It’s just that it’s not just rote memorization.
"What? You mean to memorize all of this?!"
The graduate student was immediately shocked.
This level of outrageousness and shock is no less unbelievable than for a history graduate student to hear that a certain professor memorized all the history books and key classics.
"Yes, what else?"
"Ah? Can you carry this too?!"
The graduate student's eyes widened.
Li Jinglin curled his lips.
Generation gap, this must be a generation gap.
If I hadn't gone out with Professor Wu Xia once, I never would have expected to meet such a fierce person.
He actually memorized the entire "Encyclopedia" of musical instruments?
"."
In fact, the truth is scarier than these graduate students thought.
Musical Instruments.
The content of this subject is absolutely impossible to just memorize illustrated books.
Behind the knowledge of musical instruments.
Even more terrifying.
It is a thorough understanding of the entire development history of Chinese music, various ethnic groups, and the music culture of various places.
That's right.
Memorizing an instrument is just a matter of course.
Ontology, that is, the study of the development context and cultural inheritance behind musical instruments.
"."
Everyone found it a bit incredible.
But Li Jinglin didn't think there was anything wrong.
Actually.
This is nothing more than a three-dimensional memory method developed through systematic study of a music system.
First, there is horizontal and vertical memory.
Horizontally, it is based on the classification of musical instruments.
For example, stringed instruments, plucked instruments, wind instruments, percussion instruments, etc.
Then start combing the twigs and leaves.
for example.
Among stringed instruments, what families are there in China?
There is the Huqin family, or the Morinqin family.
So, what types of musical instruments do these family subordinates have?
In the Huqin family, there are Erhu, Jinghu, Banhu, Gaohu, Zhonghu and Gehu.
In the morin fur family, there are Chaoer, Yikeli, Heili, Maoshuur and so on.
Then, it’s time to sort out the individual components.
For example, resonance box, headstock, piano rod, tuning pin, and strings. Drawing the bow and so on.
Then we will specifically distinguish the characteristics and signs, for example, what kind of piano is XX, what is XX like, what is the difference from another similar piano, etc.
And this vertical direction is based on geographical location.
It is said that the north is good at suona.
So what is the difference between suona in Northeastern folk music and Northwest folk music?
The same is the guzheng.
What are the differences between Zhejiang guzheng style, Shaanxi guzheng style and Henan guzheng style?
This not only involves musical instruments, but also involves knowledge of music.
Moreover, the understanding of the entire context will be clearer.
Form a two-dimensional system knowledge cognition.
Next, there is the final, third dimension that connects these two points.
This third dimension is to summarize the development and changes of musical instruments from the entire history and culture of musical instruments.
History is a line, connecting times and regions.
for example.
Based on archaeological data and research.
In XX year, XX musical instruments were dug up for the first time in XX place.
Then it evolved based on the distribution of this XX musical instrument on historical cultural relics.
You can gain insight into the laws of its development and evolution.
When we came to the north, what genres emerged, and what changes occurred in the appearance of musical instruments that conformed to the local regional culture.
And when this same ancestor came to the south, due to regional issues, it evolved differently from that in the north.
When these three are combined.
This formed the framework of "instrument science".
As one of the few musical instrument experts in China
In fact, if you identify musical instruments and know a lot about them, you can easily tell a lot of characteristics, ways of distinguishing them, cultural context, historical roots, etc.
It is indeed very powerful.
But for this type of researcher.
It's okay to be gay.
"Then are you planning to use Miao instruments this time to create a pure Miao Feige?"
Wu Xia couldn't help but ask.
"Of course not."
Li Jinglin curled his lips.
Shaking his head.
Such a reaction somewhat surprised Wu Xia.
after all.
Just before, Li Jinglin said that he wanted to develop in a national direction.
"Rather, I want to use Western music to present the work."
Li Jinglin pinched his chin.
Li Jinglin has different views on this aspect.
“Once you really go out into the world, it will be easy to discover.”
"Actually, people in Europe, America, or internationally, don't actually understand China's traditional musical instruments. In their eyes, these Eastern cultures are mysterious, but they don't understand them."
"For a long time, international folk music has been, to put it harshly, a form of self-pleasure, because its international acceptance is not as great as imagined, and its role in cultural promotion is limited."
Li Jinglin’s words.
Wu Xia couldn't help but nod slightly.
Actually.
When these words are posted on the Internet, there must be many comments that are too retarded to make sense.
[Who wants them to accept it? Isn’t it enough to be strong? How do the barbarians understand the vastness and profoundness of China? Do they agree that it has a motive? Why do you feel so inferior? Do foreigners have to recognize our own culture? Advocate for foreigners! 】Yunyun.
But actually.
This is a kind of narrow-minded populism, and it is also stupidity with a blind eye and a missing brainstem.
Do this.
underlying logic.
It is not, and has never been, a humble need to be recognized and accepted by others.
It’s about making them “understand”.
Only when they understand it can they truly promote Eastern ideas that are completely different from the West and will not be manipulated by the media controlled by the capital.
It allows people to see a more real China, rather than a smeared and demonized China.
If you are successful, you will get a lot of help, but if you are unfaithful, you will get a lot of friends. This is the most basic logic behind doing all of this.
"This issue has nothing to do with the development of folk music. In fact, the development of folk music is very good."
"It's because there is still a lack of Western music that belongs to the core of Chinese spirit and culture."
"For example, if you do folk music or opera, famous ones like "The Romance of the West Chamber" and "Mountains and Flowing Waters", people in the world know very little about these, and they don't understand them at all."
Spread your hands.
Li Jinglin curled his lips.
Although the language is indeed a bit sharp.
But in fact, generally speaking, this kind of problem does exist.
"But if you talk about the violin concerto "Butterfly Lovers", then music lovers all over the world will know, oh, this is the Oriental "Romeo and Juliet"!"
"It is precisely because of this that some people say that almost no one can surpass "Butterfly Lovers"."
"This is called cultural influence."
Li Jinglin’s words.
Wu Xia understood the meaning instantly.
Simply put.
Foreigners all think that Chinese is very magical, but if you use Chinese to talk to them, they will only think that Chinese is NB and magical, but they can’t understand it, so they applaud you with great admiration but without realizing it.
But.
What if you use English to tell the story of China to foreigners?
Then it suddenly goes deep into the content and the ideological impact.
We also want to plant red flags all over the world.
Use the previous method.
It has no cohesiveness and is almost equivalent to the performance art of a monkey imitating a human being.
The latter method can be used.
That is to truly have ideological guidance and spiritual belief.
On steam, there are no Chinese versions of games that are popular in the West.
So compared to other popular games with Chinese versions, does it also belong to a niche in the Chinese gaming circle?
This is a very simple question.
so.
In this collaboration and the creation of the work.
Li Jinglin has no intention of continuing the feeling of "mysteriousness internationally".
We don’t even plan to promote the so-called Miao traditional music only in China.
What belongs to the nation belongs to the world. The first thing to do is to go to the world.
as far as I can tell.
The West has very deep stereotypes about China in terms of thought, culture, and various cognitions.
What can break stereotypes must be promoting the diversity of Chinese culture and thought.
because.
National integration is the true entire Chinese culture.
This is also the reason why the Chinese music industry has been very keen on bringing national music to the world stage for decades.
And in order not to make these people unable to understand.
Don’t “please” yourself, don’t just expect people in the professional field to understand.
This is Western music.
Instead, it has become the best content carrying tool.
"Hmm, not bad, not bad."
Wu Xia nodded.
Something in this.
Naturally, as soon as Li Jinglin opened his mouth, Wu Xia immediately got to the core of the problem.
I couldn’t agree more at the moment.
Wu Xia has collaborated with folk music and Western orchestral music.
It goes without saying that I am sensitive to this kind of musical language.
"Then how to collaborate? Is it just singing + orchestral music, or singing + violin concerto?"
Wu Xia didn't understand Li Jinglin's thoughts.
The violin's timbre is the protagonist, and the soprano's timbre is also the protagonist.
The two protagonists are put together.
On the contrary, it is easy for both parties to feel mediocre.
"No, I plan to do two versions directly, one with violin solo and one with soprano singing."
Li Jinglin chuckled.
"In this way, the competition can be more intuitive, the violin can be transformed into a human voice, and the voice can be transformed into an instrument, so that both parties can have a natural and original ecology."
"Forehead"
Wu Xia was stunned.
What I have always been thinking about is how to integrate the two and collaborate on a work.
But Li Jinglin's answer surprised Wu Xia.
Directly separate into two versions.
For a moment, I really never thought of such a simple, crude and direct method.
"Don't say it, really don't say it."
Wu Xia nodded.
"With contrast, you will feel better."
Think about it carefully.
Wu Xia started to look forward to it.
after all.
Although there are two versions, one with singing and one with instruments, there is no comparison.
But it will still arouse some competitiveness.
"So do you have any ideas now? When will you start?"
"Haha, that's it for this period of time."
Li Jinglin thought about it carefully and then said.
"If it's about the same, I should be able to make it in time for the Labor Day party."
Many things don't happen overnight.
But Li Jinglin soon began to advance.
In this period of time.
The share of "Dancing for a Thousand Years" has been settled, and due to its popularity, the second season is also on the agenda. Naturally, "National Treasure" will also be launching the second season of variety shows. However, it has just been launched and the soundtrack has not yet started. Work.
The box office share of the first phase of "The Wandering Earth" has also been received, and plans for the second part are being drafted.
After the "Three-Body" TV series was approved, the team was quickly gathered together and are waiting for the opening ceremony.
There isn't much going on in this area.
Li Jinglin devoted himself wholeheartedly to the process of training his apprentices.
Luo Shiyao was even busier.
after all.
Age begins to reach a certain age.
In the past two years, as the leader of the academy, it was the last time to reach the top.
If you go any further, it’s time to retreat.
At that time, I will continue my dance journey in my own name.
But at that time, there will naturally be a lot more freedom in scheduling.
All of a sudden.
Everyone seems to be getting busy.
And during this time.
On the Internet, among the group of classical music lovers, there is a topic that is very keen to discuss.
[Li Jinglin went to see Jin Zunxi’s concert]
Good guy.
All of a sudden.
Many melon-eating people suddenly became fun-loving people.
after all.
everybody knows.
This Jin Zunxi once made arrogant remarks in a variety show.
It is said that Li Jinglin neglected to practice the piano and his strength has declined. Now, he may be better than Li Jinglin.
Then.
The video of this concert was posted online.
To know.
These enthusiasts are all veterans, and they have a sharp eye.
You may not be able to tell who is stronger or not in subtle ways, but such a huge gap is really not incomprehensible.
Especially in this concert, due to an imbalance of mentality, Jin Zunxi repeatedly overturned, and his performance was completely substandard.
then.
Fun happens.
[Le, he also said that Li Jinglin doesn’t practice piano, he is just obsessed with teaching. 】
【ah? Do you dare to say that you are better than Li Jinglin? 】
[Laughing to death, the car rolled over like this, do you call this a performer? 】
[It’s so spicy, I can’t stand it anymore. 】
[No, at this level, how dare he touch Brother Cilin? I was stunned. 】
