Chapter 350 Philharmonic Orchestra
Jiang Changsheng originally wanted to perform Victory as a symphony. He sang it himself at the opening ceremony, and then designed a dance or performance to perform it at the Olympic opening ceremony.

But after deep thinking, I found that it was not suitable.

The symphony did not match the national style of the opening ceremony, and the duration of Victory was relatively long. It was impossible for Jiang Changsheng to perform for such a long time in the opening ceremony.

So he plans to record the two songs Victory and Star Sky, and then shoot a special promotional MV, which will be released as a promotional song for the Olympic Games.

Tian Xingguo had already contacted the Philharmonic Orchestra in advance and gave them the lyrics and music.

The orchestra has been practicing for a few days, and they are more skilled in cooperating, so they made an appointment to have their first joint practice at the headquarters of the Philharmonic Orchestra tomorrow morning.

Zhang Yimou said, "Can I go over and enjoy it tomorrow?"

Jiang Changsheng shrugged: "Sure, I don't care, if you want to go when you have time, no one will stop you."

Zhang Jigang said, "I want to go too."

Cheng Danqing: "I'll go too."

"I'm going too!" "Take me one!"

After a while, most of the director team had to go.

Finally, Chen Mang, who walked out of the lounge, also said, "I'll go and have a look too. I don't have anything to do tomorrow morning. I just happened to go to the Philharmonic Orchestra."

It really didn't matter to Jiang Changsheng, he was rehearsing, and he wasn't afraid of crowds watching.

In the evening, he took Chen Mang back to the manor, and called Lin Yiya in advance to tell her to rush back to the manor.

Lin Yiya got Jiang Changsheng's order and obediently returned to Jiuzhang No. 1 from the laboratory.

Chen Mang was finally able to get together with his own daughter.

After dinner the next morning, Jiang Changsheng drove to the headquarters of the Philharmonic Orchestra in XC District.

There were Zhou Huimin, Chen Mang, Liu Yifei and Liu Xiaoli accompanying her. Zhou Huimin finished the charity performance on Hong Kong Island and rushed back to Yanjing last night. Hearing that Jiang Changsheng was going to record a song, he invited a professional band, so let's see it together.

Chen Mang made an agreement last night. As for Liu Xiaoli, Jiang Changsheng took her out to relax.

Concubine Liu Yi stayed with her mother, and when it was inconvenient for Jiang Changsheng to practice singing, Concubine Liu Yifei took care of her mother.

The car stopped at the entrance of the headquarters of the Philharmonic Orchestra. This is a single-family building, which looks like a theater in style.

There are more than a dozen stairs in front of the building. Jiang Changsheng directly hugged Liu Xiaoli and walked up. Liu Yifei was in the trunk of the car. She took out the wheelchair and easily picked it up and followed Jiang Changsheng.

After seeing it, Chen Mang sighed, "Sissi's strength is really great."

Concubine Liu Yi felt a little complacent when she heard this, and her steps became more brisk.

Walking to the door, Concubine Liu Yi put down the wheelchair, Jiang Changsheng put Liu Xiaoli on the wheelchair, and pushed her in.

The two executive beauties at the front desk saw a few people and immediately came out. They skipped Jiang Changsheng and Liu Yifei, and went directly to greet Chen Mang.

"Master Chen, you are here! Welcome!"

"Good morning, director!"

The two girls greeted Chen Mang cautiously, and Jiang Changsheng looked at Chen Mang in surprise: "Do you often come to the orchestra? They treat you so respectfully?"

Chen Mang explained with a smile: "The Philharmonic Orchestra was established on the basis of the National Broadcasting Symphony Orchestra, directly under the General Administration of Guangdian, and managed by Yangshi.

I am in charge of the radio department, and the Philharmonic Orchestra is also in charge of me. "

Jiang Changsheng laughed loudly, and deliberately teased: "After a long time, it turned out that the big leader was face to face, disrespectful and disrespectful!"

Chen Mang ignored Jiang Changsheng's teasing, turned to Concubine Liu and said, "Qi Qian, there are many beauties in the orchestra, you have to watch out for Changsheng."

Concubine Liu Yi was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "Can I keep an eye on Brother Changsheng?"

Zhou Huimin interjected: "Yes, you are Concubine Liu Gui, come on!"

What Chen Mang said is true. There are indeed many beauties in the Philharmonic Orchestra, especially the chief of cello and percussion.

The Huaguo Philharmonic Orchestra is a national-level symphony orchestra and is also well-known in the world. They have gone abroad many times and carried out various tours around the world.

Especially in 2005, the orchestra held 22 consecutive tours in Omni, including world-renowned concert halls including New York Lincoln Center Concert Hall, Lenton Barbican Concert Hall and Berlin Philharmonic Hall. The tour has attracted widespread attention. , media all over the world have reported.

To be able to serve as the principal of this kind of orchestra, its performance ability is at least world-class, or even the world's top.

There is a chain of contempt in any circle, and so is the music circle.Players in professional orchestras play so-called elegant pure music and look down on popular music.

This is also the reason why Chen Mang took the initiative to follow Jiang Changsheng after knowing that Jiang Changsheng was coming to the Philharmonic Orchestra. She is the manager of the orchestra and knew that the performers in the orchestra were very proud.

If these people don't know how to restrain themselves, it will be bad for Jiang Changsheng.

So Chen Mang came to support Jiang Changsheng.

Several people walked into the concert hall. Those who participated in the rehearsal today have already arrived.

After seeing Chen Mang, the team leader Li Tan and the art director Yu Long walked over together, and Li Tan said: "Mr. Chen, you also came here today.

Is there a problem?We have rehearsal today, I'm afraid we don't have time to greet you. "

This is an artist, not sociable, and his attitude when talking to Chen Mang is relatively casual.

Chen Mang didn't care about these things, she said: "I'm Jiang Changsheng's friend, I'll come over with him to have a look, some members of the director team for the opening ceremony of the Yanjing Olympic Games will also come over later.

You ask the administration to prepare it, and there should be no shortage of tea receptions. "

Li Tan nodded, spoke to one of his subordinates, and then greeted Jiang Changsheng very politely.

"Mr. Jiang, hello! I'm Li Tan. Nice to meet you. Many people in our group are your fans."

The artistic director Yu Long on the side was also very active, he came up and said: "Mr. Jiang, hello, I am Yu Long, and I am the chief conductor of today's rehearsal. I really like your songs.

I really like your previous pure music, Kiss The Rain. When I proposed, I also used your song.

And the episode Midnight City in your recent movie, I really like it, it has a psychedelic and ethereal feeling. "

Midnight City is an episode of War and Love. As War and Love was released overseas, this song also exploded, and it was on the Omi music charts.

Seeing that Li Tan and Yu Long treated Jiang Changsheng more respectfully than they did themselves, Chen Mang instantly felt a little redundant.In this scene, Jiang Changsheng didn't need to stand on stage by himself.

Fortunately, after a while, Zhang Yimou and others arrived. Facing Zhang Yimou, Cheng Danqing and others, Li Tan and Yu Long were much more normal. Although their attitudes were respectful, they were all polite and distant, maintaining the attitude of being an artist. Reserved.

What happened to Zhang Yimou and others made Chen Mang know that he hadn't had an illusion.

It's just that Jiang Changsheng is special.

In fact, Jiang Changsheng was able to receive this treatment, firstly because he was very popular overseas, members of the Philharmonic Orchestra often went abroad to perform, and watching Jiang Changsheng win glory for the country abroad gave him a sense of honor.

The second is because of the two songs Victory and Star Sky, the orchestra has been practicing for a few days and they think they are very good.

If the Philharmonic Orchestra wants to use the two songs as the orchestra's repertoire, it must have a good relationship with Jiang Changsheng.

After exchanging pleasantries with everyone, Chen Mang took Liu Yifei and the others to sit down in the front row, and Li Tan led Jiang Changsheng to the stage.

A total of 67 people came to the rehearsal today, of which 58 were players from the Philharmonic Orchestra, and 9 were temporarily invited sopranos of the choir.

Li Tan focused on introducing several chief executives to Jiang Changsheng, and then at Yu Long's suggestion, everyone took a photo together on the stage.

Only then did Li Tan say: "Mr. Jiang, today we are inviting members of the vocal section of the Philharmonic Women's Choir, a total of 9 members.

They have all tried singing in the song before, but the effect is not particularly good.

We can rehearse first today.

For subsequent song recording, it is recommended that you find a world-class soprano singer to sing, so that the effect will be perfect.

If you don't have access, I know Ms. Kanawa, a New Zealand soprano, who has a very distinctive voice, which is very suitable for this song. "

Jiang Changsheng said with a smile: "No need, I will finish the singing part, otherwise what am I doing here today?"

Li Tan and Yu Long were both stunned by these words.

After all, Yu Long is the artistic director of the orchestra, responsible for the quality of performances, he said directly: "The singing in the song is difficult for ordinary sopranos to sing.

What's more important is not to sing in tune, but the texture of the voice, which must have penetrating power, the kind that hits the soul directly, in order to express the epic and shocking feeling in the song.

You are a man, and the condition of your throat has natural limitations, so it's not suitable. "

Jiang Changsheng didn't make any excuses, he said: "We'll find out after trying it later, how is your timpani preparation going?"

The strengths of the Philharmonic Orchestra are string and wind music, and they are almost on the drums. Although most of Victory's song is orchestral, the core of the song is the timpani with a strong sense of rhythm.

If the drum sound of the orchestra is not effective, Jiang Changsheng is ready to add electronic synthesized sound.

Yu Long said confidently: "The preparation is very good, and the effect will definitely satisfy you."

Jiang Changsheng said: "That's okay, please coordinate, we will start the first rehearsal in 10 minutes, and I will sing."

Hearing what Jiang Changsheng said, Li Tan stopped persuading him, anyway, after all the rehearsals.

He began to greet everyone, and everyone began to sit down in different areas. The entire stage actually had steps, a total of four floors, with percussion instruments on the top, wind instruments next, and cellos, violas, and violins at the bottom.

Jiang Changsheng stood on the left side of Commander Yu Long, with a stand-up microphone in front of him.

There were quite a few audiences in the audience, besides Chen Mang, Liu Yifei, Liu Xiaoli and Zhou Huimin, there were more than a dozen members of the director team for the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games.

In addition, Zhang Yimou also invited representatives of costumes and dances of various ethnic groups to the scene.

The euphemistic name is to bring the representatives of the nation to experience the edification of art and find inspiration for the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games.

For Zhang Yimou's behavior, Chen Mang was the happiest, because Gu Li Nazha was one of the representatives of Xingjiang, and came along with him.

Therefore, there are hundreds of audiences in the audience. Fortunately, there are enough seats in the concert hall, and everyone can sit down.
