Escape the Library

【Music Melody-05】

It is not difficult for a music student like Qi Luoran to completely disrupt the melody of the songs that he once listened to, and then let people restore it.

The first two songs successfully scored points, the countdown was 30 seconds, and the third song was played soon. Everyone concentrated and listened carefully. Yue Xingwen was not familiar with pure music, but he soon noticed the strangeness of this song——

The first melody of group A played sounds like a piano. The second paragraph was replaced by a violin, and the third paragraph was mixed with flute? He looked at Qi Luoran with some doubts, and found that the younger brother's face was not as confident as before.

Sure enough, Qi Luoran had never heard the third song!

This is troublesome. Who knows the order of the songs that have never been heard? What's more, this song is very complicated, with 8 melodies being played in a row, Yue Xingwen even felt that these melodies were "unrelated" at all.

The surroundings became quiet, and everyone turned their attention to the younger brother. Qi Luoran scratched his hair with a wry smile, and said in a sullen voice: "I guess I guessed right, the third song is an original song from the library. I have studied music for so many years, and I have never heard such a strange song."

Xu Yi sighed deeply: "Then what should I do? If you are not sure of the order, we laymen don't even know how to answer the questions."

Lan Yarong said, "Eight-segment melody, there are countless ways to arrange and combine them. It's definitely not possible to guess."

Yue Xingwen walked up to the younger brother and asked calmly, "Have you found the pattern between these eight melodies? Which one is the most suitable for the current performance and which one is suitable for the ending? First pick out the first and last, and then arrange the middle one. ."

Qi Luoran nodded, looked at Yue Xingwen and said, "Senior brother, I can't guarantee that the answer will be correct. If this question is wrong, will this class fail the exam?"

Yue Xingwen looked back at the prompt on the big screen, and thoughtfully said: "The prompt for the rhythm level is that if you make more than 20 mistakes, the challenge will fail and you will be eliminated directly. But this time the melody level requires that the order be sorted. If you make two mistakes, the assessment will fail, and there is no saying that you will be eliminated directly."

Jiang Pingce also said: "This music course has three assessments in total, rhythm, melody, harmony, and rhythm. There are three questions in rhythm. If you get one wrong question, you will be eliminated directly. Melody is also three questions. Since it is not said that you will be eliminated, it should only affect the final grading, there is still a chance to save if you miss a question.”

The system prompts of the library should pay special attention to every word difference. Assuming that a wrong question in the melody section is also directly eliminated from the game, the system makes no sense not to point it out in advance. Thinking of this, Yue Xingwen patted the younger brother on the shoulder and said, "Don't be nervous, we have already got two of the three questions right, you can answer this question with confidence and boldness according to your own ideas, even if it is wrong, we will not will blame you."

Songs that have never been heard, messy melodies, Qi Luoran may not be able to answer the questions based on his own understanding and experience, and once he makes a mistake, it will affect all the students in the 183 research group. , call back to the first floor to rebuild, then he will become a sinner! Qi Luoran's psychological pressure at this time is not ordinary.

But if this question is not a "life-and-death question", and there is a chance to tolerate mistakes, his mood will naturally relax a lot.

Qi Luoran took a deep breath and said, "Then I will judge by myself based on experience."

Yue Xingwen nodded at him. Qi Luoran closed his eyes and recalled the melody clip just now, and explained seriously: "I also have some understanding of composition, these eight melody, the most suitable for the prelude is the flute of group F, which is soothing, long, like an introduction. It attracts the attention of the audience, and then the tempo gradually increases. At the climax, there will be a lot of drum accompaniment, the melody will become more and more rapid, and finally it will end with a flute sound, which seems to bring the story to an end.”

After he finished speaking, he turned to look at everyone again, his eyes uneasy: "I'm not sure if it's right, this is just my personal understanding."

Yue Xingwen said simply: "Go and write the answer, according to your ideas."

Qi Luoran took a deep breath, took a step forward, and reordered the 8-segment notes on the screen according to his own understanding. A jumping number score popped up on the big screen, and everyone held their breath nervously.

After a while, a golden "S" appeared on the screen, and at the same time there was a sentence "All 8 melodies are sorted correctly"!

Qi Luoran's eyes lit up first, clenched his fists tightly, and his voice could not help trembling: "It's all right!" During the art exam interview, he was never so nervous!

Xu Yishen said with a smile: "Junior brother is not bad, it seems that you have a talent for arranging music."

Qi Luoran's cheeks were blushed, and he said embarrassedly: "There is also an element of luck. I'm not really sure about two of the paragraphs. I'm blind."

The academic masters of the 183 research group rarely turn to others for help. Qi Luoran was temporarily brought in as a foreign aid, and he was always in a very uneasy mood, for fear that he would be held back. Now that he can help everyone, he is very happy, and he can explain it to Senior Sister Xu when he looks back.

Thinking of this, Qi Luoran immediately put away his smile and said seriously: "There is still the last link left, Harmony, I don't know how to test."

Yue Xingwen said: "Everyone, take a rest and wait for the prompt."

Everyone rested for a while on the stage, and a prompt appeared on the big screen——

[The third level game starts]

[Please sit 7 candidates in the designated seats, each choose a musical instrument, and 1 candidate is in the middle of the stage and is responsible for the conductor. The music score will appear on the electronic screen in front of the 7 candidates. When it is your turn to play the instrument, tap the score in front of you according to the rhythm to integrate the instrument harmony into the main melody]

[There is a total of 1 song in the game, which will be scored according to your performance]

When everyone saw this, their minds were stunned.

Lan Yarong couldn't help but said, "I don't know how to play musical instruments! Is it a joke to let us play musical instruments?"

Qin Miao frowned and said, "I can only play the guitar, but this kind of ensemble is usually a symphony, right? Guitars rarely appear, and I don't know any other instruments at all, and I can't understand the score."

A prompt pops up again on the big screen [you have 10 minutes to prepare]

Then, seven chairs appeared on the stage, and the big screen displayed more than ten consecutive pages of music scores. Qi Luoran quickly ran over to take a closer look and said, "It's Beethoven's Symphony of Destiny!"

This is the most famous piece of the symphony. Many people have heard the name of this piece even if they have never heard of the piece itself. But isn't it embarrassing for them to come to the ensemble in person?

Qi Luoran glanced at the musical instruments placed on the seven seats and said, "This symphony originally required a lot of musical instruments, but we are only tested for one of the sections, including violin, viola, cello, timpani, flute, and piccolo. , oboe, we need to divide the labor as soon as possible."

Yue Xingwen looked at the screen in front of him and said thoughtfully: "It shouldn't be that we should play the musical instrument ourselves, but after selecting the musical instrument, we will touch the musical instrument according to the score on the screen, like playing a music game. "He picked up a flute and put it on his lips and blew it, and the whole melody sounded in everyone's ears, and the crisp flute sound was very pleasant.

Yue Xingwen said with a smile: "I don't know how to play the flute at all. This is equivalent to an 'automatic musical instrument'. All we need to grasp is the accuracy of rhythm and harmony, and we can play even if we don't know how to play a musical instrument."

Lan Yarong breathed a sigh of relief: "I just said that although the library is perverted, it doesn't allow each of the 8 candidates to play one kind of musical instrument. Wouldn't the failure rate be 100%! Automatic playing is fine."

Qi Luoran said excitedly: "That is to say, you don't need to know musical instruments, you just need to read the sheet music clearly and follow the rhythm of the harmony of the team. When it's your time to play, it's up to you, don't lose the chain?"

Xu Yishen said: "Symphony is the piece that requires teamwork the most. One person playing it wrong will destroy the integrity of the whole piece. Junior brother, take the time to take a look at the score and draw the parts that everyone needs to play."

Qi Luoran nodded, and Yue Xingwen quickly divided the labor: "Choose the instrument first, this piccolo belongs to me."

Jiang Pingce said, "I'll take the flute."

Lan Yarong walked up to the timpani: "I'm in charge of the drums."

Xu Yishen chose the violin, Qin Miao and Qin Lu chose the viola and cello respectively, and Lin Manluo took the oboe. Qi Luoran walked in front of everyone, taught everyone how to play each instrument, and then began to pick up the score and draw the parts that everyone needed to play.

With 5 minutes left in the countdown, Yue Xingwen suggested, "Everyone rehearse."

Qi Luoran stood in the middle of the stage and conducted the command. Although he drew everyone's part, because the sheet music was too long, sometimes he couldn't tell which part he was playing. The first time he tried, various instruments sounded out of time, and it was a mess. Became "magic sound brainwashing".

Seeing that there were only 2 minutes left in the countdown, and it was too late to do it again, everyone was nervous, Jiang Pingce suddenly said: "In this way, we can't understand the score, and we don't know which section we're playing, but Junior Brother Qi knows. Gestures indicate to us, for example, it is time for Xingwen to play the flute, you stretch out your left thumb, it's mine, you use your right thumb."

Qi Luoran: "..."

Such a command method is unheard of!

However, to play a symphony with a group of "non-professionals", although the method proposed by Jiang Pingce is simple and crude, it is also the most effective at present.

Qi Luoran took a deep breath and said, "That's it! Let's make good gestures, everyone will watch my gestures later, and then you will be able to accurately find the part you should play..."

He checked the gestures with everyone, the countdown ended, and the music officially started.

As the melody played by the system flowed in their ears, falling notes appeared on the screen in front of everyone. Everyone immediately followed Qi Luoran's gestures and began to play their own music.

Melodious violin, crisp flute, deep timpani, melodious oboe... The sounds of different instruments blend together to form a generous and passionate melody.

Everyone was surprised that a group of rookies who couldn't play musical instruments, under the melody correction of the library, actually popped up the momentum of a "symphony orchestra"!

There was only one violin at the scene, but as long as Xu Yishen pulled the strings, it was the sound effect of dozens of people playing together!

Yue Xingwen, who has never played the flute, incorporates the crisp flute sound just right...

Excerpted from the 3-minute ensemble segment of "Symphony of Destiny", until the end sound fell, everyone could not calm down for a long time, Yue Xingwen and Jiang Pingce looked at each other, and put down the long and piccolo in their hands.

Yue Xingwen took a deep breath and said with a smile: "The library has really turned many 'impossible' into 'possible'. I never thought that one day I would be able to join the symphony orchestra and play a famous song with everyone! "

Jiang Pingce said in a low voice, "Do you think that the selection of repertoires for this music exam is very meaningful. Does it mean that we can decide our own destiny through teamwork?"

After a moment of silence, Qi Luoran said earnestly: "Brother Jiang is very reasonable. When Beethoven started to conceive this piece, his ears were completely deaf, and there was no hope of healing, and his lover was also because of this. After leaving him, a series of encounters brought his life to a low point, but he still stood up strong..."

Speaking of this, Qi Luoran's eyes suddenly turned a little red: "Beethoven did not succumb to fate, he wrote this "Symphony of Fate" to prove to the world that even if he is deaf, he can still perform Music creation."

Deaf musicians are fighting their fate.

These college students, although they have many difficulties after coming to the library, have all kinds of "anti-sky" skills, why do they have to give up?

Although the library has always caused them trouble, it has also been giving them hope.

Familiar customs clearance information popped up in the floating box. Although the clearance time for this Conservatory of Music course was only about half an hour, it made everyone remember it deeply.

From rhythm games, to melody sequencing, to the final multi-instrumental ensemble…

People who don't understand music also realize the power that music brings to people!

They will not stop, just like, Beethoven never gave up to fight against fate.
