Chapter 616 The first sentence brings tears to my eyes (22, please recommend a monthly ticket)

"This is actually a soprano song, and the chorus part is a little more complicated. It needs the power of a group chorus to reflect a kind of courage, or beauty that makes people sincerely praise!"

Sitting in front of the piano in the recording studio, Yang Qian introduced the situation of "My Motherland" (Note 1) to Yang Chuanrong.

It is worth mentioning that this is a song that Yang Qian obtained more than a year ago.

Needless to say, the quality of "My Motherland" is absolutely superior. Through the understanding of its history on the earth, Yang Qian also knows that it is a good song that can move people all over the country, and even several generations of Chinese people!

But after Yang Qian got it, it was similar to many songs, and he hadn't had the chance to show them yet.

On the one hand, there is not an appropriate timing, on the other hand, it is also because they do not have suitable singing candidates.

Yang Qian couldn't sing, because the main song of "My Motherland" still needs to be sung by female singers, in order to reflect the gentle melody and the magnificence of the imagery in the lyrics, thus bringing the audience a more intuitive sense of beauty!

Dai Yuni also can't sing, because the key is too high, and ordinary singers can't handle it at all. If she lowers the key and sings, it will destroy the original aura.

Of course, Dai Yuni's timbre is more suitable for singing lyrical songs, and she can't sing this kind of main theme song.

As for the two newly signed young singers, Ouyang Xiaoqing and Zhang Shanshan, they may have a great performance in treble, but they are still too young after all.

Yang Qian felt that at least in the past few years, the two girls who hadn't experienced stage training, had no in-depth understanding of history, and experienced the emotions of people in that era could not sing the most beautiful emotions of this song.

Rather lack or abuse!

Therefore, until now, Yang Qian has not come up with this song.

This time, it was also because of Yang Chuanrong's elaboration of his film concept that reminded Yang Qian of this song, so he decided to show it to Yang Chuanrong.

"Then who do you think is suitable to sing this song?"

Yang Chuanrong sat on the sofa next to the piano, holding the manuscript of Yang Qian's lyrics in his hand, and asked tentatively.

The singers for the soundtrack are different from the actors in the movie. Yang Chuanrong has no intention of choosing the candidates himself. If Yang Qian has an idea, he will definitely fully respect Yang Qian's choice.

Of course, the premise is that this person has to sing well, in line with the artistic conception of the movie, and even the voice must meet some plot requirements.

"I don't know. Among the singer teachers I know, there is no one who is particularly suitable. I think she should meet the following requirements - she must be a soprano singer, and then have a foundation in folk songs. Secondly, she must be Our mainland singer"

Yang Qian said.

Why does it have to be a mainland singer?

Yang Chuanrong glanced at the lyrics and quickly understood what Yang Qian meant.

Although there are many patriotic singers in Hong Kong City and Baodao, the beautiful mountains and rivers in this song, as well as the generous confession and strong praise to the motherland and the soldiers, are really only born in the mainland, Singers who are older than Si, especially those of the older generation, can sing!
Of course, Yang Chuanrong didn't know that if Yang Qian was really asked to pick a singer, he would definitely pick a female singer at the national team level from the older generation.

Yang Qian is not just a porter of earth music, he is also the inheritor and guardian of these beautiful things.

It is necessary to show their best side, not to insult the excellence of other people's original works!

"Sing it first, I'll listen!"

Yang Chuanrong couldn't wait any longer and urged him.The selection of candidates can be discussed later!
Yang Qian nodded and began to play on the piano.

Of course, the accompaniment cannot be just the piano. Whether it is the flute in the original movie, the oboe that may be used in the symphony, or other traditional folk music instruments that can reflect the Chinese style, the combination of them and the piano can show this to the greatest extent. The charm of the song!
But now Yang Qian is improvising, and he hasn’t practiced for a long time. It can be said that he can play and sing well. Arranger.

However, as soon as the accompaniment of this song was played, Yang Qian himself felt numb and emotional.

"A mighty river has wide waves,

The wind blows the fragrance of rice and flowers on both sides of the bank."

It was just a demonstration, Yang Qian didn't try too hard, just sang along to the melody gently.

The accompaniment is in the original key, and there is no flat key. It is actually a bit awkward for Yang Qian to hum like this.

But Yang Chuanrong's music is only in the state of appreciation, and he didn't feel the awkwardness in this aspect. Instead, he felt the shock brought by the lyrics in the magnificent yet soft melody.

No, it should not be said to be a shock.

The scenery "in front of you" should be spectacular, the river is surging, wide and boundless, and the rice fields on both sides are full of beautiful rice flowers.

And the feeling in the heart should be proud, because this is the scenery of the motherland, the scene of the people living and working in peace and contentment, and the prosperity that those ancestors who paid the price of their lives for this beautiful era want to see!
In an instant, the old man Yang Chuanrong, who had a deep understanding of that period of history and had a personal experience of how hard the country and people have gone through since the founding of the People's Republic of China, burst into tears.

Before just reading the lyrics, I thought it was extraordinary, but I didn't expect to sing it with the music, and it was even more touching!

Of course, due to the professional habits of a professional film director, Yang Chuanrong quickly combined the lyrics with the plot he had previously conceived with the screenwriter.

Suddenly, he began to feel that his plot had to be revised.

It's not touching enough, at least, it has to match this good song!
He didn't know how Yang Qian could have such deep feelings at such a young age, and he didn't know how such a "modern" song could sound very similar to the melody of the previous era, even used in his movie when the country was founded. There seemed to be no sense of disobedience in that era.

But this question seems to have no meaning to pursue.

"Sing the voice of upliftment in times of suffering, and the voice of happiness in times of peace!"

Yang Chuanrong remembered such a sentence.

The song is undoubtedly a very good song, a good work that can touch people's hearts!

The key is still yourself, how to make good use of this song!

What Yang Chuanrong was thinking about was no longer the question of whether Yang Qian should be used or not!
(Note 1: "My Motherland", a classic old song that can sing the patriotism hidden in the blood in the first sentence, is also an eternal memory that can make many generations listen to tears. It is In the episode of the movie "Shangganling" in 1959, the original singer was teacher Guo Lanying, that is, the 2020-year-old old artist who still sang loudly in the 90 Spring Festival Gala! At that time, Xiao Han burst into tears. Not just the original singer , both the lyricist and songwriter of this song deserve a good introduction! The lyricist Qiao Yu has a lot of titles, but the lyrics he wrote are familiar to everyone, such as "Let's Swing the Sculls" and "Unforgettable Tonight" , "Love My China", etc., and there is another song, "The Windmill", which can be said to be recalled by countless post-[-]s and post-[-]s generations. It is also a lyrics written by him. The composer Liu Chi is also a legend of a generation. Wrote thousands of songs, "Let's Swing the Sculls" is also his work, in addition to many opera works, and the third and sixth sets of radio gymnastics music)
