Chapter 448 A Famous Song Passed Down From Generation to Generation!

On the Internet, after Xu Ye posted this Weibo, people who can play the erhu and violin fell silent.

Especially the group of students in the Conservatory of Music, everyone knows some musical instruments to some extent.

Before, everyone was still helping Xu Ye, but in the blink of an eye, Xu Ye did this.

These students had the same idea as Hu Guanghua.

"The collapse of rituals and music, what a disgrace!"

As for the stupid netizens, it was different.

I can't play the violin, and I can't play the erhu, but it doesn't matter, Xu Ye can play.

"Brothers, let me ask you something, why is this erhu different from the ones I have seen, and why is this violin different from the ones I have heard."

"Brother upstairs, the instrument Xu Ye used in the front is called a small violin, and the instrument he used in the back is called an erhu. It's normal that you haven't seen it."

"Is this called horse racing? This is called racing foreign horses!"

"Pure music entered my mind in a strange posture."

"The dean's posture made me successfully ignore the awesomeness of this song."

The Weibo comment area has been completely overwhelmed.

A new term was born, the new instrument, the xiaotihu.

But everyone played and joked, and although most people couldn't say how great the horse racing song was, they all thought it was nice.

For ordinary people, it was enough for a song to make everyone feel good.

The song "Horse Racing" was composed by the famous erhu player Huang Haihuai in 1959 and finalized in 1960.

The performance of this song does not use too many special techniques. What needs to be paid attention to when playing is the passion of emotions.

The whole song is magnificent, unrestrained and passionate.

When it is played, you can easily feel the grand occasion of horse racing.

This is originally an erhu song.

There was a small clip in "Wulin Wai Zhuan", which Xu Ye did not release.

There were too many songs released at that time. If a pure music was mixed into the song and released, the song would definitely not get much attention.

And now, the time is almost right.

"I'm ready. I must watch Tom and Jerry today!"

"I have to see what the violin has to do with Tom and Jerry."

"The updated animation tonight has a high music content?"

On Weibo, netizens have been discussing it.

On the other side, Hu Guanghua has returned home.

His house is a staff quarter built by the school, just opposite the school, and can be reached on foot.

After returning home, Hu Guanghua immediately turned on the TV and switched the channel to the CCTV Children's Channel.

Hu Guanghua's wife has retired and is preparing to cook at home.

Seeing that Hu Guanghua turned on the children's channel, his wife was puzzled: "You are so old, why are you still watching cartoons?"

Hu Guanghua said slowly: "It's not a cartoon, it's a musical disguised as a cartoon, just like the Tom and Jerry I told you about before."

"Is it so mysterious?" His wife didn't quite understand.

Hu Guanghua's wife is not in the music industry, and she doesn't understand music appreciation.

But his wife doesn't say anything to spoil the mood. Over the years, the two have already had a tacit understanding.

Hu Guanghua smiled and said, "I can't really say, I mainly believe in Xu Ye."

When his wife heard Xu Ye's name, she immediately said, "Xu Ye is a very good kid. If he did it, there must be no problem."

The King of Square Dance Music, let's learn about it.

Xu Ye has long been in the hearts of middle-aged and elderly women, striving to be a friend of women.

Hu Guanghua's wife continued, "Then I'll go to cook now, you watch first."

The wife went to the kitchen, Hu Guanghua picked up the kettle and added some hot water to his thermos cup, and began to wait.

When the time came to half past five, the children's channel "Tom and Jerry" started on time.

In the opening animation of this episode, a piano pattern appeared.

And the name of this episode is "Cat Concerto".

"Xu Ye didn't lie, it's really related to music."

Hu Guanghua cheered up.

After the opening song ended, the animation started.

At the beginning, it was a concert scene with a piano on the stage.

"There's no violin here." Hu Guanghua said in his heart.

This concert was obviously a piano solo.

Applause then broke out. In the applause, Tom, wearing a tuxedo, slowly walked towards the piano. As he walked towards the piano, he nodded to the audience.

"He really looks like a pianist."

Hu Guanghua often goes to concerts, and he thinks this part is quite similar.

Especially Tom, who is very impressive.

When Tom sat in front of the piano, he took out a handkerchief to wipe his hands.

Then, Tom put his hand on the piano.

The piano sound began!

The episode "Cat Concerto" won the Academy Award for Best Animated Short Film in 1946.

On Earth, the opening of this episode is also a little different from other episodes, with an additional Oscar statuette.

In this episode, the music played by Tom is called "Hungarian Rhapsody No. 2", and there are also some small fragments of other music in the whole episode.

The whole story is also very simple. Tom plays music for the audience with the band in the audience, but wakes up Jerry who is sleeping in the bass area of ​​the piano.

Angry Jerry starts to disrupt Tom's performance. Tom has to deal with Jerry's disruption while trying to play hard.

The whole story takes place on the piano. The scene is small but interesting.

The original author of "Hungarian Rhapsody" is Liszt. The second one is the most famous and one of the most technically demanding piano solos.

Liszt is also nicknamed "Octopus".

If you are not an octopus, how can you play this song with two hands?

The reason why "Tom and Jerry" chose this song when it was created is that when playing this song, the span of both hands on the keys is very large, which can easily create some exaggerated movements.

As soon as the music sounded, Hu Guanghua sat up straight.

He can also play the piano, so he can easily see that the notes played by Tom correspond to the keys pressed.

This is not like some TV dramas or animations, where the actors play the piano and the soundtrack sound separately.

"This is too detailed."

Hu Guanghua was shocked.

Because this is unnecessary for most viewers, and not everyone can play the piano, who knows what the sound of the key you press is.

Some marketing accounts on the Internet boast that the keys pressed by Tom from beginning to end in this animation correspond to the original song, which is actually impossible.

Tom has four fingers, Liszt has five fingers, so the playing techniques cannot be the same. The songs in the animation have also been specially modified compared to the original version.

When creating "Tom and Jerry", it was said that logic should never be used in funny animations.

You can't play it mindlessly just because you won an Oscar.

But the beginning of the song is indeed completely corresponding, and you can't take care of it when you start playing with Jerry later.

When the soothing introduction in the front was finished, Tom wiped his hands with a handkerchief again.

Hu Guanghua grabbed the thermos cup and prepared to moisten his throat.

But Tom wiped his hands quickly and continued to play.

The piano sounded, and Hu Guanghua's attention was immediately attracted by the music.

Soon, the piano woke up Jerry who was sleeping.

A cat-and-mouse fight began.

What surprised Hu Guanghua was that the entire fight between Tom and Jerry was integrated into this song.

The emotions conveyed by the music and the animation are almost exactly the same.

More importantly, he had never heard this song.

"Xu Ye didn't write a piano piece specifically for this episode, did he? You are seriously ill!"

After hearing the last part, Hu Guanghua already felt the level of this piece.

This is definitely professional-level, and it is definitely qualified to become a world-renowned masterpiece.

If a piano master composed this piece, Hu Guanghua could still accept it.

But it was Xu Ye.

The bastard who played the violin as the erhu and the erhu as the violin today!

"The rituals are broken and the music is ruined!"

Hu Guanghua looked uncomfortable.

At this moment, he felt that he was really old.

Why would God give such a person the talent for music!

After watching this episode, Hu Guanghua immediately picked up his phone.

He wanted to tell his friends about this new song.

When he opened the software, he found that many students in the student group had already x-on:him.

Hu Guanghua clicked in, and the students were talking about the episode "Cat Concerto".

In addition, everyone mentioned one thing.

"The music that appears in the episode of Cat's Concerto was originally called Tom's Rhapsody. The full symphony version played by the Xisheng Symphony Orchestra and the full piano solo version played by Xu Ye have been uploaded to major music platforms."

The full version of this song is naturally impossible to be only five or six minutes long.

Xu Ye had already prepared the full version and uploaded it when this episode was broadcast. The Xisheng Symphony Orchestra also announced the news on Weibo.

"Teacher Hu, when you said this was a musical at the beginning, I felt it was a bit controversial. This time I am really convinced!"

"What is this, Xu Ye? Writing a piano piece specifically for a cartoon? This is not how you use your talent!"

"I feel that this piece is a bit difficult to play."

In the group, the students have already started chatting.

Hu Guanghua replied to the students in the group and quickly searched for the full version.

When the official version of the music started, Hu Guanghua's mind automatically appeared Tom's appearance.

I can't forget it.

What everyone didn't expect was that this episode was not enough?

It's said to be related to the violin, but the violin hasn't come out yet, so how can it stop here?

However, many people have been immersed in the shock brought by this rhapsody.

The few minutes of advertising ended quickly, and the next episode of "Tom and Jerry" continued to play.

At this time, Hu Guanghua was still listening to the song renamed "Tom Rhapsody" by Xu Ye.

When the opening music of "Tom and Jerry" sounded, Hu Guanghua realized that a new episode had begun.

He was about to turn down the volume, but found that the name of this episode appeared in the opening animation.

The name of this episode is "The Universal Conductor".

The conductor, of course, only appears in a concert.

"Is this episode also related to music?"

Hu Guanghua pressed the pause button on his mobile phone and looked at the TV.

At the beginning of this episode, it was a bit like the previous episode.

In the previous episode, there was a piano on the stage, and in this episode, there was a whole symphony orchestra on the stage.

At the beginning, Tom, wearing a tuxedo, slowly walked onto the stage.

But in this episode, Tom held a baton in his hand.

Hu Guanghua was already looking forward to it. It was obvious that there would be instrumental music in this episode.

After Tom came on stage, he bowed to the audience, then raised his hands and began to conduct.

Suddenly, the music sounded.

The violin also came.

However, it was not just one violin, but a whole orchestra!

"Another new song!"

Hu Guanghua looked surprised.

And just like in "Cat's Concerto", Tom's conducting movements would be as close to the real conducting as possible.

And the whole process of the cat-and-mouse fight was perfectly integrated into the whole music.

"Don't tell me that you wrote a song specifically for this episode of animation."

This kind of operation is not something that ordinary people can do.

Xu Ye, on the other hand, wrote two songs at once.

The main music that appeared in this episode of "The Universal Conductor" is called "Bat Overture", composed by composer Johann Strauss Jr.

Because of its lively and bright melody, this song is very suitable for performance in concerts and is also widely spread around the world.

Hu Guanghua could tell the level at once.

This is another classic handed down from generation to generation.

He was numb all over.

In just one day, Xu Ye had played three songs.

The styles of the three songs were different and each had its own characteristics.

The most important thing was that the quality was really good.

Hu Guanghua laughed while listening.

"Now I want to see who dares to say that Tom and Jerry is not a musical!"

At the end of this episode, Jerry sawed a hole in the floor under the performers with a saw.

Tom could only watch the performers fall one by one.

In the end, there was no one on the scene, so Tom had to drop the baton and play it himself.

Tom was seen playing left and right, with four or five violins and cellos on both sides, and four trumpets in front of him that needed to be played with his mouth.

Not only his hands and mouth, but his feet were also not idle.

Seeing this scene, Hu Guanghua laughed out loud.

"I was wondering why the name of this episode was called the Universal Conductor. So this is what universal means!"

When the music performance was over, Tom collapsed on the ground.

After the end of this episode, it was time for commercials again.

Hu Guanghua picked up his phone and looked at the student group. In the group, the students were obviously chatting while watching Tom and Jerry.

"Xu Ye is really excited! So awesome!"

" x-on:Hu Guanghua, teacher, how about the second piece?"

"The piece is very nice, I'm so excited!"

Looking at the discussion in the group, Hu Guanghua said in the group: "I have a feeling that this piece from the universal conductor's home will likely appear frequently in concerts in the future, and it will be very soon."

"It's not that Tom Rhapsody is not good, it's mainly because Tom Rhapsody is too difficult. It will take some time to practice this piece."

After posting, Hu Guanghua asked in the group.

"What is the name of the second piece?"

A student replied soon.

"The second piece is called Jerry's Troublemaking."

Seeing this name, Hu Guanghua almost vomited blood.

Such a beautiful piece of music, you gave it such a name?

Who told you to name it like this?

Xu Ye, get out of here!

Xu Ye didn't show off his skills in the next two episodes, but the music elements were indispensable.

After the children's channel was broadcast, Weibo once again sparked a wave of discussion.

Many netizens asked a question.

"After watching the cartoon, I want to know what level these two songs are?"

Many professionals also came out to comment on this.

Everyone's evaluation of these two songs is very consistent.

Just two words, "legacy".

This time, many people in the entertainment industry shut up.

If everyone could still interrupt the previous topic, then this time they couldn't interrupt at all.

Look at who commented online this time.

Professors from Beijing Conservatory of Music, national first-level conductors, national first-level composers, etc.

Too many.

All those marketing accounts that wrote negative articles during the day were dumbfounded.

Xu Ye played a big game this time!

"Dean, you really shouldn't do that. We don't need to write a famous song just to make an animation. It's really unnecessary."

"This is the first time I feel unworthy of being your fan. Dean, please be more down-to-earth. I'm not used to you doing this."

"You make animations like this, which makes it very difficult for everyone."

The patients in Huohua Hospital really couldn't stand it this time.

Xu Ye played too many vulgar things, and he was really not used to the elegant ones.

It's more exciting when he plays the violin.

The next day, unexpectedly, the top three places on the new song list were occupied by three pure music.

The first place was "Horse Racing", followed by "Jerry's Troublemaking Song" and "Tom's Rhapsody".

A group of singers in the music industry had calculated that Xu Ye would not release songs during this period, but they never expected that three pure music songs would dominate the list.

This is too outrageous.

But there was also a special topic that became a hot search.

"It is recommended to change the name of Jerry's Troublemaking Song".

This topic originated from a Weibo post by Hu Guanghua.

After listening to the song, Hu Guanghua felt uncomfortable.

After thinking about it, he posted a Weibo last night.

In the Weibo, he also x-on:Xu Ye.

“Considering that “Jerry’s Troublemaking Song” will definitely go abroad in the future and represent the image of our China, I strongly suggest x-on:singer Xu Ye to change the name of “Jerry’s Troublemaking Song” to a more decent name.”

This Weibo post received a lot of responses from people in the music industry.

Everyone felt that the name “Jerry’s Troublemaking Song” was purely for making trouble!

After this Weibo post became popular, Xu Ye responded to it.

“Teacher Hu is right, but this name is very Xu Ye! [Yeah]”
