The playing technique of "Colorful Clouds Chasing the Moon" is not too difficult. What needs to be paid attention to is the precise control of the off-tone.
This piece of music uses the national pentatonic scale, which is the well-known Gong, Shang, Jiao, Zheng, and Yu, also known as the correct tone. In the minds of many people, this is all of Chinese music.
Actually not so.
Based on the pentatonic scale, there are also varying pitches. The pitch that is half a tone higher than the correct pitch is called "clear", the pitch that is half a tone lower than the correct pitch is called "variable", and the pitch that is a whole tone lower than the correct pitch is called "leap".
These are collectively called partial tones.
In ancient times, only four partial tones were used, namely Qingjiao, Bianzhi, Biangong and Run, which are equivalent to the changing pitch degrees in major and minor keys.
如果以1为宫的话，它们分别相当于4、4、7、b7。
By adding partial tones, the heptatonic scale evolved from the pentatonic scale has three different modes.
The Ya Yue scale is also known as the Zhengsheng scale.
Yanyue scale, also known as Qingshang scale.
清乐音阶，又称下徵音阶，此音阶相当于现代音乐体系中的do（1）、re（2）、mi（3）、fa（4）、sol（5）、la（6）、si（7）
Therefore, it is not accurate to think that Chinese music only has five tones.
The piece of music "Colorful Clouds Chasing the Moon" is based on Yue Opera and incorporates some Western music techniques, so there are frequent off-tones in it, but it is still folk music in essence.
Therefore, if these two off-tones are not played well, it is easy to make the song sound Westernized.
Lu Qingfeng's violin skills have reached the pinnacle.
Initially, he relied on his powerful nine-tailed fox talent to teach himself. After half a year, he raised his level to a professional violinist. He never relaxed afterwards and would set aside some time every day to practice hard.
I gradually developed the style of a master, but then entered a bottleneck period. In addition, after entering university, I started learning piano, and my technique remained at this level for a long time.
But with the added bonus of his charming talent, he is already on par with master musicians in terms of emotional resonance and emotional rendering.
Perhaps because he progressed too quickly in the beginning, he became lazy after a long period of practice without any positive feedback. It was not until Liu Qiya reminded him on the show that he collaborated with the Philharmonic Orchestra and became a guest violinist.
Through practice with the orchestra, his violin skills were further improved.
What really transformed him in playing this instrument and made him a master of it was his encounter with the country's top violinist, Lü Sijia, after the Forbidden City Centennial Concert.
This master musician admired him very much, pointed out the flaws in his performance, answered his questions, and led him to a higher level of violin playing.
He eliminated the dross and retained the essence, integrating the techniques and styles learned from domestic and foreign violin masters in the past and forging his own artistic path.
At this point, he has reached a world-class level in this instrument.
This is also the reason why he had the confidence to adapt the classic folk music "Colorful Clouds Chasing the Moon" into a violin concerto.
You should know that this is not in the memory bank, only the original author's music score.
The bow in his right hand was wielded with ease, as if it were nothing; with his left hand, he pressed the strings, producing harmonics, double notes, oscillating tones, and appoggiaturas with ease. The young man at the center of the stage was harmonious, natural, and gentle.
The brisk and lively melody spreads across the art hall like moonlight covering the ground, like a long scroll of ink and wash with golden edges.
The unique timbre of the violin displays oriental artistic conception in his hands. The graceful pentatonic scale and the agile tango rhythm are interwoven on the strings, sometimes like the caress of flowing clouds, sometimes like the pouring moonlight, constructing an audiovisual image of clouds chasing the moon.
The charm spread throughout the venue along with the sound of music, capturing the hearts of everyone present.
Like Lu Jiachi, most people are immersed in the lyrical performance, but there are also people who, while listening, admire the performer's technique.
No, this is no longer a display of technology, but a sublimation of art.
In addition to the audience who bought tickets, there were also invited musicians and music critics who came to the scene.
Chai Shengan is a contributor to Musician magazine.
This magazine is not well-known among the general public, but it is very famous in the professional field. As the most authoritative classical music magazine in China, it was founded in 1979 and its content covers a variety of genres including Western classical music, Chinese folk music, world music, musicals, crossover music, jazz, etc.
As a quarterly magazine, it only publishes four editions a year, and those who appear on the cover of this magazine are all world-class musicians.
In terms of professionalism, it is only slightly inferior to the leader of the domestic music industry, "Music Research"
It is as famous as Britain's "Gramophone" and America's "American Music" and plays an important role in the classical music circle.
Chai Shengan is from Hong Kong. He graduated from the Department of Music of Hong Kong University and then went to the Royal Academy of Music in England for further studies. He has been engaged in the music industry for many years and is 36 years old this year. He is not a musician, but a researcher.
As a part of human culture, music is a subject that needs to be explored in depth.
In addition to his job, he is also a professional music critic, collaborating with and contributing to many music magazines at home and abroad.
He came here at the invitation of the Philharmonic Orchestra.
Before coming, he had also heard of Lu Qingfeng, the protagonist of this concert.
The name Lu Qingfeng is also somewhat well-known in Hong Kong, mainly because of the martial arts novel "The Legend of Lu Xiaofeng", which attracted the attention of many people in Hong Kong Island during its serialization.
After it was published as a book, it sold quite well and was even on the best-selling list of audio-visual products.
At a time when martial arts is declining, it is called the last rays of light of martial arts by those who like to gossip.
Chai Shengan was known not because of this martial arts novel, but also because of the centenary celebration of the Palace Museum. This event was very grand, and the specially prepared concert was also broadcast on TVB in Hong Kong.
"Memories of the Forbidden City" also became popular as the opening song.
This was also the first time that Chai Shengan knew Lu Qingfeng, and he was deeply impressed by his creative ability and his undeniable appearance.
Later, Lu Qingfeng's novel was published in Fusang, and he uploaded a vlog of his trip to the island country to YouTube, especially a street performance of Vivaldi's "Winter".
He was amazed again.
Because at that time, he discovered that the boy's playing skills had improved significantly since his last performance on stage.
If Lu Qingfeng still had some flaws in his violin playing during the Forbidden City concert, he already possessed the bearing and demeanor of a musical master at that time.
Only two months had passed since that time, and he discovered that this person had evolved again.
He has read widely from ancient and modern times, learned from the strengths of many schools, relied on his own talents, integrated them, and created his own unique playing style, for which he can be called a master.
And the person on the stage is indeed so young.
And as far as he knew, the boy did not start learning music since he was a child, but only started learning it around the time he became an adult, which was only a little over a year at most.
Simply sensational.
This overflowing talent that is visible to the blind is simply terrifying.
Chai Shengan looked at the young man enjoying the music on the stage, and thought of the many famous musicians in the long history of music from ancient times to the present, both in China and abroad. These music masters all have legendary experiences.
He learned piano at a young age, became famous at a young age, and performed on stage, and has since become a shining star in human history.
And now, he saw such legendary qualities in this young man.
