Chapter 124 What does this song mean? (4K)
"You little brat, I told you to watch less TikTok, did you hear me?"
"Can't you just watch something nutritious?!"
In the yard.
Tong Tai was sitting in a rocking chair to enjoy the cool air. When he looked up, he saw his grandson Wang Ming, who was holding a tablet computer and shaking his head excitedly, so he made a dissatisfied sound.
As one of the outstanding composers in Qingjiang Province in the last century.
Tong Tai, 76 years old this year, holds a high status in the entire Qingjiang music industry.
Because he has a sharp eye, sharp language, likes to post on Weibo, and can keep up with the aesthetic tastes of young people, Tong Tai still has 200,000 fans on Weibo.
Lao Deng is a man who is well-connected in both the elderly and young circles.
Tong Tai is quite proud of his achievements, and therefore, he is very strict with his juniors!
However, his grandson Wang Ming, who is currently attending college, did not inherit any of his talent.
After all, we are a musical family! I usually tell him to watch more elegant things, appreciate more meaningful and nutritious things, and cultivate his sentiments, but he doesn't listen.
Every day, he holds a tablet, sits opposite him, and watches short videos! Now, he is going crazy again.
"Hehe. Hehe."
Wang Ming lay on the chair, looking at the tablet and laughing foolishly.
Tong Tai's forehead was wrinkled into three horizontal lines.
Maybe he found some beautiful girl again? Tong Tai knew that young people on the Internet were very bold in dressing. To be able to make his grandson laugh like this meant that he had done a great job this time! "Hehe. Hehehehehe"
Wang Ming made the voice of the thief Jier Yingdang again.
“.”
"You little brat! What are you looking at?!"
Tong Tai couldn't stand it anymore and stood up from his chair.
He wanted to see what kind of person could be so obsessed with his grandson!
He strode over, and impatiently stuck his head out to look at Wang Ming's tablet.
On the screen -
In a room decorated in a classical style, a girl lowered her head and played the cello, while a boy sat beside her and played the piano.
"?"
Tong Tai's eyes widened and he almost suspected that he had seen it wrong.
"When did you finally get the hang of it?"
How could his grandson, who either played games or skipped classes every day and couldn't even bother to read two pages of the Four Great Classics, start watching this kind of video? You know, he had tried to force Wang Ming's head several times before to get him to learn music, but he never responded.
"Ah? You don't understand. I've been a fan of this blogger for a long time, hehe."
Wang Ming waved his hand and grinned.
No, isn't this a music video?
How could this bastard laugh like this?!
Tong Tai didn't understand.
Could it be that this is for the plot?
This violin bow will be very useful later? After all, young people nowadays watch a lot of things, and anything can be filmed, so it's not surprising. Tong Tai stood behind Wang Ming with his hands behind his back, intending to watch how this video was performed.
When he came over just now, the video had just finished playing on Wang Ming's tablet.
Now it is playing for the second time in the loop.
After a while, the sound of piano in the video rang out.
"~"
With the first note, it slowly floated out like a ghost.
Tong Tai frowned.
I realized that the situation was not simple.
The voice seemed to come from the depths of distant time, with a kind of ethereal loneliness as if an old man was wandering alone in the wasteland at dusk.
Every step steps on the listener's heart, making people feel sad for no reason.
Good song!
It was just a small detail, but Tong Tai's mood was immediately upset.
"Louder, you little brat, louder!"
Tong Tai slapped Wang Ming on the head.
Wang Ming was so scared that his legs kicked up and he immediately covered his aching head.
Obviously, in order not to disturb him, his grandfather always asked him to turn the volume down when watching Douyin, but Wang Ming turned the volume of the tablet up to the maximum.
The sound of the piano echoed throughout the courtyard.
“.”
The notes gradually became denser, like the oppressive clouds before a storm, piling up layer by layer in my heart.
The vibrato technique makes each note full of delicate emotional changes.
The tone is sometimes sharp, like a needle piercing the hidden pain deep in the soul.
Sometimes it is low, like a heavy sigh, telling the ups and downs and bitterness of life. What a good piano!
What a great piano! Not only is the music well written, but the piano playing of these two people is also quite amazing! Listening to this music, Tong Tai couldn't help but sigh.
What on earth did this composer go through?
That's why I feel so sad!
Tong Tai's heart seemed to be tightly grasped by an invisible hand, and it trembled slightly as the melody bullied him.
He strolled around the yard, enjoying the music.
My feet are stepping over the fallen leaves, and the sun is setting in the distance.
As the music progresses.
A feeling of desolation spread.
It's like being in a desolate ruin, surrounded by broken walls and flames of war. The former prosperity and hope have been destroyed. However, in this endless sorrow.
Tong Tai felt it.
This song, however, contains a hint of philosophical thinking about life.
It is a power that finds light in darkness and hope in despair.
“.”
Until the song ends.
The sad and ethereal melody still echoed in Tong Tai's mind, and could not be dispelled for a long time.
"Okay, okay!"
Tong Tai, who has been retired for several years, has not heard such shocking music for a long time, except for attending some important music events! He is sure of it.
He had never heard this song before! It was undoubtedly a new song.
Which composer's new work is this?
How come I haven't heard of such an excellent piece of work recently?! This brat has made great progress! He actually discovered such a tasteful piece of music! Even I, who am so well-informed, have never heard of it.
It seems that I am usually too harsh on him.
Perhaps, his grandson just needed encouragement. Tong Tai showed a relieved look and walked up again.
However, the grandson has entered the third cycle.
Then, he laughed foolishly again. "Just listen to the music, why do you have to keep laughing?!"
Tong Tai finally realized that something was wrong.
This is clearly a performance video, and it’s a very sad song.
Why is this guy always smiling like he is looking at a beautiful girl?
"No, Grandpa, that's why you don't understand. Look again--"
Wang Ming pointed at the male and female protagonists in the video, "Hey, don't you think they are a good match?"
“.”
“.”
Tong Tai was silent.
This artist, who is in his seventies, is a composer who has won many honors in his life and a defender of classical music.
now,
Because of what my grandson said.
He was pierced by thousands of arrows. "You little bastard, you don't want to listen to such a good song, but you are just standing here to see if the other person is a good match?!!"
"Stop brushing! Go clean the yard right now!!!"
Following Tong Tai's shout, Wang Ming was so scared that he quickly jumped up from his chair.
"You want me to listen, but I don't understand."
Wang Ming made a sound of grievance and anger.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
However, Tong Tai glared at him fiercely.
The boy immediately put down the tablet and ran to get a broom. Tong Tai picked up the tablet again and watched the video again.
"Moonlight and Cats."
What a familiar name.
Tong Tai remembered.
I had previously praised a cellist named Gan Yanyu on Weibo.
The cellist started to attract attention because he played the piece called "Moonlight and Cat" at a concert.
So, this is a combination, "Moonlight" is the composer and piano, and "Cat" is the cello?
No to him looking at the "cat" in the video.
As a music critic, Tong Tai has an extraordinary ability to observe performers.
This cat's technique is the same as Gan Yanyu's. It's an immersive performance with the same strong appeal.
So that's the reason? Tong Tai became excited.
What made him excited was not Gan Yanyu.
But it’s the “Moonlight” next to him.
If the guess is correct.
This moonlight may be the unknown high school student who played the piano accompaniment beside Gan Yanyu! "Heroes emerge from youth."
Tong Tai sat on the chair and sighed sincerely.
What on earth did this young man go through to be able to write such a sad song?
If I had not really experienced war, I would probably have suffered the pain of having my family torn apart and losing my loved ones.
However, the inner world of a genius is difficult to guess.
As a composer, seeing such talent, Tong Tai felt happy for the music industry, but at the same time he also felt a sense of inferiority.
Thinking of my grandson who is in college, this feeling of failure becomes even stronger.
For many outstanding composers, it is already amazing if they can create one or two classic works that are spread around the world in their lifetime.
Even Tong Tai himself could only count them on one finger.
This Yue Guang is only a high school student, but it seems that he has already reached a height that many people cannot reach in their entire lives.
Fortunately, this "Moonlight and Cat" already has more than two million fans.
This proves that the talent of this classical music composer has not been buried by today's era.
This made Tong Tai very pleased.
It is probably only a matter of time before I enter the music industry.
But when I thought about the appearance of my grandson just now.
Tong Tai became indignant.
Maybe many people who watch this video feel the same way!
These young people are really messing around!
Such a great song!
Instead of appreciating the scene, they just stared at the man and the woman, and still wondered if they were a good match! Tong Tai put himself in their shoes and was so angry that he almost fainted.
He immediately returned to his study and turned on his computer.
I started writing on Weibo with great enthusiasm!
After Moonlight and Cat’s new work, Cello Concerto in E Minor, was released on Bilibili and Douyin.
As always, it sparked a lot of discussion online!
However, this time is different from the past.
Although many people were still discussing the progress of Moonlight and Cat's relationship as before.
But this time, many people are really asking questions online with a desire to learn.
[Damn! This time, Brother Moonlight has given everyone a big stunt. We can’t understand it at all!]
[Can someone who knows something about this song, please tell me what it is about?!]
[I studied music, so I don’t understand it either! ]
[It feels very depressing and sad, but if you ask me to describe it, I can’t.]
Of course, there are also many netizens who believe that they grew up listening to Moonlight Brother’s songs, and their musical aesthetic ability has improved a lot.
So, start making bold guesses!
[I think this is a story about a knight protecting a princess and sacrificing himself for her! When you listen to the beginning of the song, does the powerful theme sound like a knight undergoing training and swearing allegiance?! The variation at the end sounds like the princess singing to thank the knight! How romantic!]
[It’s too small, the pattern is too small! How about changing the angle and changing the knight into a soldier and the princess into a country and a family? ]
[You bunch of fake fans, your guesses are all wrong! It must be combined with Moonlight Brother's previous songs! The knight is replaced by a bull spirit, the princess is replaced by a cow, the bull protects the bull, and the bull gives the bull a reward while crying.]
[It’s over, I feel like it’s not as good as Mao Jiang’s inner world when she was made to cry by Moonlight Brother. 】
Netizens are discussing it heatedly.
There was even a time when the topic "What story does the Cello Concerto in E minor tell?" became a hot search topic.
Just like every time Marvel releases a new movie, it attracts a group of people to discuss its Easter eggs and comic plots.
This time, it's obviously much more elegant.
Many bloggers have specially made a video to talk about their understanding of this song.
Until a heavyweight player appeared.
In a corner where no one is paying attention. [Composer Tong Tai] posted a new Weibo!
The content is related to the Cello Concerto in E Minor! Title: [A journey through the soul]
[Friends who are familiar with me know that because I tend to avoid suspicion, I usually only comment on performances and will not easily comment on composers.
But this time, I really heard a very shocking work, haha.
The Moonlight "Cello Concerto in E Minor" from Tik Tok is really outstanding!
When you first listen to it, you feel like you are listening to an ethereal and sad voice from distant times, which makes people feel sad for no reason.
It was as if I saw a scene of war, with life struggling under the iron hoof of war. Listening again, I saw a power of finding light in darkness and seeking hope in despair.
Especially the variations in the second part, they are amazing!
Good song, really good song!
After all, I am not the composer, I just describe the intention based on my own feelings, welcome friends to discuss! I also sincerely recommend this song to everyone! 】
As soon as this Weibo post was released, it immediately attracted a large number of netizens to watch.
Turtle, comments from professional players! I have to believe it now! It's like a large-scale prediction scene.
Netizens who had previously guessed the intentions of "war" and "country" were ecstatic, as if they had guessed the final question in the college entrance examination.
[Look, I told you that if you listen to Moonlight Brother’s music every day, your aesthetic ability will improve sooner or later! ]
