Chapter 144
The Shanghai Youth Symphony Orchestra is the earliest and longest-established talent training base for Shanghai Symphony Orchestra in China.
The orchestra is organized according to the standard four-pipe structure
The so-called four pipes refer to the size of the orchestra.
Symphony generally refers to a large-scale orchestral suite, so the symphony world is divided into two-pipe, three-pipe, and four-pipe according to its size, namely small, medium, and large.
The number of people ranges from dozens to hundreds, and some large concerts can even expand to a thousand people.
Xue Lu is 21 years old and currently serves as the principal second violinist.
A symphony orchestra is generally divided into five instrumental groups: strings, woodwinds, brass, percussion, and color instruments.
Among them, the string group is the soul of the entire symphony and has the largest number of members, with two violin groups alone.
The first violin is responsible for the main part, and the second violin is responsible for the harmony.
The band had a performance today. When they came out after changing their clothes, Xue Lu saw her teammates gathered together, and she didn't know what they were doing.
The sound of a violin can be faintly heard.
"Wow!"
She walked over quietly and stomped her foot suddenly, scaring the team members.
She laughed out loud with great joy.
"What are you doing? Why don't you change your clothes?"
After she finished laughing, she asked.
"Sister Xue, look at this! This person is amazing! Even more amazing than the Chief."
One of them showed her his cell phone.
Xue Lu glared at him.
"You're looking for death! If Chief Lu finds out, he'll stare you to death."
After saying that, I couldn't help laughing.
What they are talking about here is the principal first violin, who is responsible for the pitch and tuning of the entire orchestra, and is therefore also the principal of the entire orchestra.
The second person under the conductor.
The principal of the Shanghai Youth Symphony Orchestra is Lu Chuan, a very arrogant person.
He can't stand being questioned by others and especially likes to stare at people. What's more, his eyes are surprisingly big.
It feels a bit funny when I think about it.
The man smiled awkwardly.
"Let me see how powerful you are to dare to say such things." Xue Lu took the phone.
Despite the noise, she recognized Lu Chuan's piano skills.
Whether it is technical training or emotional expression, he is among the best in the country in his twenties.
She had heard from the group leader before that in one or two years, Lu Chuan would be eligible to be transferred to the main group.
Looking at the phone screen, stuck on the TikTok interface, the vertical video seems to be a slice of the live broadcast.
Click play, and the beautiful sound unique to the violin will come out.
Clean and transparent.
Awesome! Just by hearing the sound, she was sure that this was a master.
The performer played the instrument well, but the instrument was not very good and was still a level below the top level.
If you change to a better guitar, the sound will be more beautiful.
She thought to herself and looked at her phone seriously.
The song is "Ode to Love".
She recognized it from the first note.
But because the distance was too far, the sound was a bit low at first.
As the photographer approaches, the gentle, romantic and lingering melody becomes clearer.
The emotions expressed in the melody seep into my heart bit by bit.
Xue Lu's eyes gradually became surprised.
"Ode to Love" is a serenade-style piece that is gentle, lyrical and romantic.
Often used to express love.
This type of song is not difficult and focuses on expressing emotions.
What surprised her was that this level of musical appeal surpassed that of ordinary performers.
It's the kind of true fusion of skill and emotion that only top musicians can achieve.
"Maybe it was a sudden inspiration when the time was right, the place was right, and the people were right."
she thought to herself.
Sometimes, the emotions in your heart match the mood of the song you want to play, and ordinary performers can also reach this state.
But in terms of effect, it is still far behind this person.
"How about it?"
The melody slowly faded away, and the owner of the phone took back the phone and asked.
"Who is this person?"
After the song ends, the video switches to the proposal scene.
In addition, the performer blocked his face, so his appearance could not be seen.
However, judging from the condition of the skin on his hands, he can't be too old and must be a young man.
When did such a famous violinist emerge in China?
The classical orchestra circle is not large, and she knows almost all the famous violinists.
"I don't know. This man first appeared several days ago, you see."
He handed the phone over again.
Xue Lu also listened to Flight of the Bumblebee and The Butterfly Lovers.
This time she was sure that this was not a momentary burst of inspiration, but real strength.
The key question is, where did such a violinist come from?
Not only is she curious about this question, but countless netizens are also curious about it.
To be honest, the classical music community is really small.
But the contribution of Tik Tok to music is also really huge.
Famous tourist attractions, internet celebrities proposing, performances that control the entire audience, and a mysterious violinist—all of these elements combined have the potential to attract the attention of passersby.
Without any promotion from anyone, the violin piece "Ode to Love" has been on the hot list of Tik Tok.
Also on the list: an internet celebrity proposing marriage, and a mysterious violinist playing "Ode to Love"
A street violinist appeared on the banks of the Huangpu River in Shanghai.
In addition to Yang Zhao’s live broadcast clips, many videos shot from passers-by’s perspectives are also extremely popular.
B station UP host Octopus made another professional analysis. At the end of the video, he once again questioned the identity of the violinist.
"This person first appeared in Su City, and now he's in Magic City. I don't know what the connection is."
"At first I thought this person was unwilling to show his face for some reason."
"But now he's appearing so frequently in these live broadcasts, I'm starting to wonder if he's just putting on a show."
This statement was recognized by many people.
Because in the past two years, it has become common to see people attracting public attention, becoming famous, and then directly becoming internet celebrities.
If you see it too much, you will naturally get bored.
By the next day, questioning voices began to appear online.
This matter did not end until Yang Zhao came out to explain.
"Everyone's understanding is a little wrong. It wasn't the violinist who appeared in the live broadcast room. He only appeared at my invitation."
"I've been planning to propose to my girlfriend today with my friends for a long time. We originally planned to use speakers for the music, but when the equipment broke, we had to ask this street performer to come over and help."
"So this is a complete coincidence. According to everyone's idea of putting on a show, this person had to know in advance that I was going to propose today, and also predicted that my sound system would have problems, and then waited there for me in advance."
"That's not true, and I didn't even know he was that famous before I invited him."
This statement calmed some people, but some still believed that it was a show.
Even Yang Zhao started to suspect it.
Think it's a joint hype.
It wasn't until noon that a Weibo post took another turn.
The China Philharmonic Orchestra extended an invitation to the street violinist to collaborate.
