abnormal musician

Chapter 157 Brother Jie committed suicide! (seeking subscription ~monthly ticket~)

"Why do you require the public to explain the music in detail? Do you have to explain to the standard answer?"

Li Shaojie shrugged.

"Originally everyone felt a little bit about it, but after looking at it and expressing it, it was all wrong. Hey, who else would be interested?"

"No! What you said is wrong!!"

A musician stood up.

Hit back.

"If you don't understand the background and the author's experience, how can you understand his emotions?!"

"Isn't it the essence of these works that we want to promote?"

Li Shaojie stood up and shook his head.

"Wrong! Music is for entertaining the public, but also for educating the public. There is a saying in our country, which is called entertaining and entertaining!!"

"The so-called creator's life, the background of the times, and the emotions expressed in the works are not the public, but us musicians who need to study these. The purpose of our research is to learn, learn from, innovate, and develop more excellent works!"

"Where is there a standard answer for music? Even if it is the same repertoire, different conductors have different understandings and express different feelings. Haven't you thought about this question?"

As soon as this remark came out, the faces of many musicians changed.

Think about it carefully, it is indeed the case.

No conductor is identical.

And many tearing B in the music industry is because their "standard answers" are different.

"But if you don't receive education, the music you feel intuitively is too subjective!!"

Some musicians are worried.

"These subjective things do not prove the quality of the music!!"

As soon as this sentence came out, many people looked at Li Shaojie curiously.

Because music, although in terms of feeling, is an art of emotion, an art of sensibility.

But in fact, when creating, there is a rigorous framework and a rational thinking.

"What you said is indeed correct, but you have to know that the audience doesn't judge the pros and cons, they only choose according to their own preferences."

"People have talked about literature, and there are a thousand Hamlets in the hearts of a thousand audiences. How come music is a more subjective and emotional thing, and there is a standard answer?"

Li Shaojie shook his head.

"Music is precisely the art that needs the least education to feel the beauty!!"

"Isn't the essence of our art coming from the people and returning to the people? Isn't what we sing about people? Taking a step back, there are so many people, why do we have to please them?"

Whoa! ! !
Many musicians opened their eyes wide.

Eager to try to refute.

"No! I think"

"You are like this."

"Then what if"

Looking at the people who tried to speak, Li Shaojie was chattering wildly on the spot.

"Diamlah!"

"!!"

"shut up!"

"Fuck! Hit me!!"

"!"

"!!"

"Ah Huluxi!!!"

"Shut up!!"

Swish! ! !
In an instant, the audience was quiet.

Everyone was stunned.

"Please don't interrupt my train of thought while I'm talking."

Li Shaojie shrugged his shoulders.

"Then let's continue."

Holy shit! !
Those who reacted began to split apart one by one.

Chen Hao couldn't bear to look directly and covered his face.

Fuck, brother Jie is crazy
It’s too fierce bro, just shut up in [-] languages.

And this passage actually feels inexplicably rhythmic.

The most speechless thing is that it still rhymes.
Is it really like learning the word "shut up" before learning a language?
"If you want to promote, you must first understand why the audience of classical music is small and why many people don't like it!!"

Li Shaojie pouted.

"Firstly, it is due to their respective cultures and national music. For example, take my country and neon as examples."

"Everyone is used to the national pentatonic, folk songs from all over the country, and folk tunes."

"What about the neon lights? Everyone is used to the tone, the folk music."

"That foreign thing sounds naturally unsuitable for a while!!"

"Ha ha ha ha!!!"

The students in the audience laughed.

Li Shaojie's words are easy to understand.

Even a lot of neon people are wondering.

How about going back and publishing a book?

It's called "The Art of Music Even a Monkey Can Understand"?
"Then, teacher, what should we do in the face of this situation?"

A graduate student in the audience couldn't hold back his inner curiosity and waved his hand to ask.

"Easy!!"

Li Shaojie clapped his hands.

"It's like eating western food and drinking foreign wine!! You will get used to it if you try it more!"

"What is the music for? Is it to be nice? No, everyone should understand this truth. Music is for being remembered!"

"In what way can people remember it? Of course it is to use the composition technique in music."

"For example, it's repetition, it's modular progression, it's imitating polyphony."

Li Shaojie scratched his head.

"Why do people accept bad songs on the market? Is it really because of simplicity? No, that's just one aspect."

"Isn't it mainly to put them everywhere in the streets and alleys? To brainwash everyone, isn't that acceptable?"

"Hahahahaha!!"

Li Shaojie smiled and waved his hand.

The laughter stopped immediately.

Unknowingly, Li Shaojie's powerful aggressiveness has permeated the entire venue.

All the rhythms in the venue seemed to be controlled by Li Shaojie.

"Also, why do many people find classical music unpleasant?"

Li Shaojie smiled slightly.

"It's not ugly, it's ugly!"

"It's ugly, the reason is that it's too complicated!!"

Many people, including musicians, nodded thoughtfully.

But that's exactly the problem! !
Overly complex forms can carry more delicate emotions.

The threshold of appreciation is naturally high.

But this is also the beauty of classical music! !
Many musicians frowned.

Something seems to be wrong.

"You see, for a classical symphony, it has complex textures, varied melodies and rhythms, and free tonality."

Li Shaojie spread his hands.

"There are hundreds of instruments in the orchestra, so many parts, and even different parts of the same instrument play different things. This kind of complexity must have dissuaded many people!"

Many people are thoughtful.

"What do many people think?"

"Many people think that if you play together in a big ensemble, the melody is simple, so I like it!!"

Li Shaojie suddenly smiled and shook his head.

"Next, there is a central idea I want to express, which is also the most important aesthetic principle."

"remember!!"

Unknowingly, Li Shaojie came to the middle of the crowd.

Start lecturing to everyone.

"Simple things are easy to get tired of, and complex things have a small audience!!!"

Whoa! !

Just this one sentence instantly awakened these musicians who felt that something was wrong! !

This is why, many popular popular songs have monotonous melody, but repeated brainwashing, after a period of time, they will be bored by the public.

That's why classical music lasts so long.

Because simple things are easy to get tired of!
Although complex things are more essential and more addictive, but also, the audience is also small!

Having said that, many people suddenly seemed to be enlightened.

"Fuck! Got it!!"

"This is a very simple truth!!"

"Sure enough, we can't just rely on the creator's thinking to think about music development, more often, we still have to stand with the public!!"

Many people understand it instantly.

"Then why is classical music still so complicated?"

Some students were puzzled.

Li Shaojie smiled.

"This involves issues of aesthetics and mentality."

These contents are not just music.

From music, to music psychology, to music aesthetics.

What Li Shaojie said is nothing more than an analysis based on the psychology of music aesthetics.

And these psychological knowledge, obviously, not every musician will study.

Chen Hao couldn't help admiring secretly.

It's crazy.

No wonder you are different from us.

The angle of thinking and other related knowledge.

Is this the pattern of genius? !

"Then why, classical music must become complicated?"

"That's because our human minds grow with age and experience."

Li Shaojie smiled slightly.

"According to different education, growth is also different. After mental growth, aesthetics will gradually grow, becoming more and more critical and strict, especially when we encounter various problems in our daily life. Subconsciously, the pursuit of beauty will be stronger."

"You see, everyone liked to listen to catchy nursery rhymes when they were young."

"Growing up, like slightly more complex pop music."

"When I get older, I'm used to listening to it, I'm tired of listening to it, my knowledge has broadened, and my experience has deepened. Do you want to immerse yourself in some music with more content?"

As soon as this sentence came out, there was an uproar in the audience.

Again.

The perspective of thinking has caused many people to have a cognitive bias when pursuing development and promotion! ! !
"But still remember!"

Li Shaojie became serious and said seriously.

"Remember one sentence again, those of us serious music, or classical music musicians, the task is not to cater to the market brainlessly, but to develop more formal beauty of music, let it carry more humanity and morality, to Show artistic beauty."

"With the progress of music and the progress of ability, to discover beauty, to define beauty, and then guide people to appreciate beauty."

Li Shaojie smiled slightly.

"Aesthetics is the power to help build people's three views of integrity. Aesthetics also has the power to persuade people to be good."

"The function of an artist is to help the public improve their aesthetics."

"Yes, the duty of an artist is to teach mankind."

Clap clap clap!

The students applauded Li Shaojie.

"But these things you said have not been resolved at all!!"

Someone raised an objection.

"You just analyzed the reasons, but what we are talking about is the promotion of classical music among the masses!"

"Haha, don't worry."

Li Shaojie smiled.

"First of all, why don't you integrate Western classical music with your own nation?"

"In this way, it will be easier to be accepted from the texture of the tune!!"

"In classical music, there is no shortage of things that incorporate elements of national music. Go back and look through the book on musical form analysis. How to solve these problems are all written in the book!"

"Fuck!"

"Good guy! Still have this kind of thinking!"

"Shocked!"

Many people scratched their ears and scratched their cheeks, and exclaimed loudly.

"Secondly, while pursuing technical breakthroughs and technical innovations, it is also possible to take care of the audience. There are not no classical music that has been popular for hundreds of years. Familiar melodies are everywhere. Everyone just doesn't remember the name. Sometimes you can even hum a few times, how can it be said that high-end products must stay away from the public?"

Li Shaojie's words once again caused many people to immediately lie down.

In fact, these problems are very simple and not difficult to find.

However, from the perspective of a musician, he knows these things very well, so he will ignore them instead.

Although the public can feel some problems, but because they don't understand music, they can't tell.

"In fact, the boundary between serious music and popular music is not that big."

Li Shaojie shook his head slightly.

"It doesn't mean that my serious music must have a low audience."

"It's not to say that serious music must be high on the air and not down-to-earth."

"Pop music also fully integrates many classical elements!! In this way, it can be innovative and let this classical charm be enjoyed by the public, and it can make pop music not only pleasant to listen to, but not so fast to get tired of listening to."

Having said that, Li Shaojie glanced at Cui Mingxi with a smile.

"For example, my classmate, Cui Mingxi, should be the most enlightened."

Cui Mingxi was taken aback and stood up.

"He studied light music, inherited the heritage of classical music, and also developed the easy-to-understand popular music."

Li Shaojie smiled slightly.

"Music, when a hundred flowers bloom, is the best, thank you everyone."

After speaking, he immediately walked back to his seat and sat down.

Clap clap clap clap! !

All the students applauded.

The musicians, though not necessarily completely convinced, nodded.

I have to admit that you are very reasonable, and your analysis is indeed very logical.

This is a research direction.

Many musicians thought of Li Shaojie's "Fantasia Impromptu" last night.

Strictly conforming to the classics, the expression is pure romanticism.

But can it be said that it is not trendy?
This kind of music seems to be played today, and there is no "sense of age".

And is it hard to accept?
At least, the audience at the venue at that time also included ordinary people from outside.

They are also fully able to appreciate this wonderful piece of music.

This may be the best example of classical music in the choice between the minority and the public! !

"Brother Jie, fierce, fierce, fierce!!"

Chen Hao raised his thumb.

"Farewell"

Li Shaojie pouted.

I can't help but add up in my heart
Do you not understand such a simple truth?still need to communicate
What kind of communication is this? Are you sure you didn't come to study in class?

The exchange continues.

But Li Shaojie can finally rest.

In the neon team, Okamoto Chijiu opened his eyes slightly, and glanced at Li Shaojie lightly.

Immediately, he whispered to Toshio Nagano beside him.

"Remember what I asked you to do at night!!"

"Hi! Teacher!"

Toshio Nagano lowered his head.

　ps, the last chapter was blocked, and it got stuck and was released for me.

　　and then?Then it went into review again! !

　　I'm so mad!
　　
　　The artist's duty is to teach mankind --- Liszt.

　　As for the so-called "definition" of beauty, some friends may feel crazy, but it is not, and there is a reason behind it.

　　And it won't be hard.

　　Human pursuit of beauty is common and driven by instinct.

　　For example, the pursuit of symmetry, circle, squareness, etc., are all instinctive pursuits of "formal beauty".

　　What is the beauty of form?
　　In fact, in my opinion, science = beauty.

　　Yes, art and science are connected. Any harmonious notes and vibrations are in line with natural science and mathematics. There is a chance to write about these things a little bit.

　　That's why so many scientists get inspiration from music.
