Chapter 114 Guzheng Department
"Chamber music ensemble is derived from Western aristocratic court music. In theory, we should focus on Western classical instruments, but today is a diversified society. If we only pay attention to principles, it will be too rigid and boring. Therefore, I think that in the ensemble performance, we can add another instrument. Note that only one can be added as an embellishment," Zhu Xiyang is young after all, and his ideas are very trendy.
"However, like the example you mentioned, the guitar major and folk music major do not offer our course. Whether you can ask students from these majors to help you depends entirely on your own personal charm."
"In terms of song selection, my opinion and that of other faculty members is: there is no limit. You can choose classical music or modern popular music, provided that you can arrange it properly. To save time, each piece should be performed within 5 minutes."
Li Xiaoru asked again, "My third question is, how do we know if we are qualified? Is it through the enthusiastic applause from the audience during the performance? Are the performances ranked?"
Zhu Xiyang said, "Student, you just asked two questions in a row, which is equivalent to asking me four questions. I will answer them one by one. For the third question, there will be 10 teachers and professors from different majors as judges to assess you."
Liu Lan recalled the routine professional assessment she took at the end of last semester, which had only three teachers as judges... and this assessment had 10...
Hearing about such a strict assessment method,
The whole classroom was filled with wailing.
"As long as you can play the whole piece completely, I don't think any teacher will deliberately make things difficult for you and let you fail. After all, your preparation time is very tight," Zhu Xiyang changed the subject and gave everyone hope again. What he meant was actually that as long as they performed on stage, no one would fail the course because of this, and it should just be a formality.
...
...
The students breathed a sigh of relief.
"As for the fourth question, the performances are ranked, and I hope everyone will do their best to prepare for the performance and not be the last one."
When we heard the ranking, everyone was shocked.
What does he mean by this? If it is just a formality, why do we need to rank them?
They are all the chosen ones, who would want to be the last one?
"I have just emphasized that our course does not have much theoretical part. It all depends on practice and exercises. I can finish teaching the contents in the textbook in about six class hours, and the remaining ten class hours are for rehearsal. The concert is tentatively planned to be held in early May, after Labor Day, so please take the time to prepare. Now, let's start the class. If you have any questions, ask me after class," Zhu Xiyang opened his PPT courseware.
After class, everyone swarmed around Zhu Xiyang, some asking questions, some copying courseware, and some admiring the handsome guy. Li Xiaoru glanced at Wang Nina who ran to the front, and she said to Liu Lan with a hint of sarcasm,
"This is the first time I've seen Wang Nina be so active towards the opposite sex. I wish the teacher is attractive."
In their dormitory, Wang Nina has the most opposite sex relationships and the most suitors, but Wang Nina doesn't like any of those boys. The smartest thing about Wang Nina is that she is not as ruthless as Liu Man in the past. She will give boys a leeway and make them feel that they still have hope. Therefore, every holiday, such as Valentine's Day, Chinese Valentine's Day, and Christmas, Wang Nina always receives many gifts.
Liu Lan thought positively, "Maybe she just has questions that she doesn't understand and wants to ask the teacher."
Li Xiaoru: “Haha.”
The two walked out of the classroom together and prepared to go to the cafeteria to eat. The class in the next classroom was over at this time, and a group of students came out one after another, mostly girls. They were very excited to see Liu Lan.
"Look, she is the goddess of Hanfu."
"I just saw her video on TikTok, and I saw her in person right after class, it was magical."
"The video is not exaggerated at all. I am really beautiful in person."
"A little worse than Senior Sister Mo Zhen."
"I think she is prettier than Senior Sister Mo Zhen."
"Don't argue. They both have different styles. They are both excellent and have their own strengths."
When Liu Lan heard this, she looked at the girl who was speaking. She was a beautiful girl with pretty face and classical temperament. She was the most eye-catching among all the girls.
Noticing Liu Lan's gaze, the beautiful girl smiled at her gracefully and took the initiative to walk up to her. "Hello, Hanfu goddess, I have heard of you for a long time."
