Chapter 110 Friendship lasts forever
Whale Luo really has no interest in writing an opera for the time being.
He still prefers pop music. If there is no suitable opportunity, there is a high probability that he will not exchange the opera "La Traviata" for it.
Of course, these are all things for later.
The program continues.
The first group of six contestants left the stage, and the second group of contestants and their co-producers came on stage.
I have to say, your uncle is still your uncle. As famous singers, the three guest producers are indeed not comparable to most contestants on this show.
Moreover, in the past week of cooperation, the contestants have made significant progress through their guidance. The three groups of performances have created very good stages and singing effects. Each has its own characteristics and strengths. Compared with previous contestants, Performances are more contagious.
If the six contestants in the first group hadn't sang the original songs provided by Jingluo, their stage effect would have been directly overshadowed.
"Drinking Song" is indeed a stunning work, but the three subsequent plays involving producers are all classics of parallel worlds.
If the audience were allowed to vote, many people might choose "Drinking Song" which surprised them the first time they heard it.
Unfortunately, this time it is the producer sitting on the stage who makes the decision.
Finally, when the fourth group finished singing, the third group of contestants who collaborated with Yang Sida temporarily stayed on the stage.
The explanation given by the producer is that "Drinking Song" is a very stunning piece, but any mature bel canto singer can perform this song to great effect.
What impresses them is the work itself, not the singer's performance, and this stage is judged based on the singer's singing skills, not the quality of the work.
Therefore, the six contestants in the first group unfortunately failed in the challenge.
In response to this, the six people could not hide the look of disappointment on their faces.
Yu Hai didn't care at all.
Finally it was the turn of the fifth group, which was the second song from Jingluo.
This time, twelve people suddenly rushed onto the stage, making the originally spacious place feel a little crowded.
Seeing this, Jiang Tan asked curiously: "Can all of you sing this song together?"
Wang Yuyu, the eldest brother among the twelve, spoke on behalf of everyone: "We all like this song and it suits us very well. We think it will be better if we all sing together."
"Oh, it's not easy to arrange with so many people!" Yu Haipeng raised his eyebrows with an interested look. He turned to Yu Hai and asked: "Is this song by Whale Luo suitable for chorus?"
Yu Hai smiled: "Different interpretation methods have different effects. I just provide the songs, and it is the singers' own choice how to interpret them. This is also a test for them, isn't it?"
Bai Xia also turned around and asked, "So, is this what you want to see?"
Yu Hai nodded with a smile: "This song itself was written for all the contestants. The more people sing it, the happier I will be."
"Then I can't wait to listen to this song." Bai Xia said.
Everyone in the audience became more and more curious about this song.
"Then please start your performance."
The contestants nodded carefully, turned around, and walked to the center of the stage.
The twelve people were divided into two rows, four in the front and eight in the back, standing in an arc.
The contestants chose a cappella to perform this song. So, after getting ready, the eight people standing at the back raised their microphones.
The so-called a cappella is a cappella singing. There are no instruments on the scene and it relies purely on human voice.
This kind of interpretation is still heard by relatively few people in China.
"Woo..."
A soft chorus of voices blew through everyone's ears as soothingly and warmly as a breeze.
It sounds so good that many people subconsciously want to close their eyes.
Then, Wang Yuyu raised the microphone, his voice was like a cello, low and soft:
"How can we forget our old friends without laughing in our hearts?"
Wang Yuyu is a very popular bass singer in this show. His voice is very magnetic. Many netizens call him the cello master.
He is also very humble, does not fight or compete, and always takes care of everyone on the show, so everyone likes him very much.
He started the song and set a very stunning tone for the song.
At this time, the first line of the song came out, and many people felt their hearts go numb, their ears were numb, and they fell into it without any resistance.
There are many basses, but one that is so mellow and charming is rare.
This magnetic sound penetrates the eardrums and reaches directly into the mind, which is so amazing.
After one sentence, the harmony behind it joins in smoothly.
Then there is the harmonious chorus:
"How can old friends forget each other and our friendship lasts forever?"
The second time, the baritone begins:
"We used to wander around the green hills of our hometown all day long"
"We have also gone through all kinds of hardships and wandered around."
Then the tenor:
"We also rowed on the blue waves all day long"
"But now the swallows are separated and they fly far away across the ocean."
Falsetto tenor:
"We used to have the same affection, let's hold hands tightly"
Final return to bass:
"Let's raise a glass and drink and our friendship will last forever."
Chorus: "Friendship lasts forever, friends lasts forever"
“Toast a glass and drink together and sing together, friendship will last forever”
Throughout the song, there is no instrumental accompaniment, and the human voice is the most primitive instrument. The tone is beautiful, the melody is soft, and the emotion is lingering.
Perhaps because they knew this would be their last performance on this stage, the twelve singers were very emotionally involved when singing this song.
A picture flashed through my mind, showing every detail of thirty-six people getting along with each other in the past three months.
From unfamiliarity to familiarity, from restraint to wantonness.
"Hello everyone, my name is Wang Yuyu, I am thirty-two years old..."
"My name is Qin Shiyu, nice to meet you all..."
"Cai Yuzhen, hello!"
"..."
The daily laughter and play, helping each other, laughter and tears on the stage, encouragement and comfort. This scene, every trace of it, makes people's eyes turn red involuntarily, and then, all the emotions are merged into the singing.
.
There is no instrumental accompaniment, and the pure vocal chorus directly conveys the most intuitive emotions to the audience.
It’s not explosive, nor passionate, but thick emotions flow on the stage like gurgling water.
Reluctance, nostalgia, sentimentality, regret, and gratitude.
Many listeners may have never heard a cappella music before. But some songs, without complicated arrangements and soundtracks, can resonate deep in people's hearts.
Listening, I don’t know why my eyes are red!
Sometimes, the most original and natural is the most touching.
The wonderful music created by the superposition of different parts of this song, the beautiful timbre, and the rich emotions make the listener unable to stop.
"I don't know why, but I suddenly feel sentimental!"
"I didn't drink, but I felt drunk inside."
"While preparing for my graduation thesis, this song made me break my guard a little bit!"
"Oh, oh, oh, I can't bear to leave you!"
"May friendship last forever!"
"Life is like a train bound for the grave. There will be many stops on the way. It is difficult for someone to accompany you from beginning to end. When the person accompanying you gets off the train, you should be grateful even if you are reluctant to leave, and then wave goodbye.
"
"..."
After a long time, the audience's applause stopped.
