I still leave the arrangement to Jiang Lili.
Of course she was happy to hear that they were going to perform at the New Year’s Day party, and she happily said that she would take care of it.
A complete arrangement usually consists of four major pieces, namely piano, bass, guitar and drums. The arranger must be at least very familiar with these four instruments. For Jiang Lili, apart from the piano, the level of other musical instruments cannot be said to be very high… When compiled as a whole, naturally it cannot be considered very good.
In particular, we have to take into account the musical instrument proficiency of Yi Yang and Zhang Bushou… Then the difficulty level must be entry-level when arranging.
Of course, it doesn’t necessarily require a high-end arranger. After all, it’s not a master tape production, it’s just a band playing it, and it’s not that difficult in comparison. The idea is very simple… first pick out the main part of the song, the chords, simplify them when necessary, change the key when necessary, in short, so that Yi Yang can easily play it on the guitar.
Then, according to the melody of the original song, pick out a few notes, use a few thirds, and simply compose a short prelude and interlude, play it for Ning Zhixin, and switch to the bass during the middle verse and chorus… …
A song is almost ready.
The drum rhythm pattern doesn’t have to be too complicated, just basic.
Following this idea, Jiang Lili called the three of them together and tried to arrange it while groping…
The progress was surprisingly smooth.
It’s also very surprising.
Yi Yang’s guitar progress is faster than expected. In less than a semester, he has been able to switch the basic chords very skillfully…including the big horizontal press. In addition, he memorizes the chords every day. Board tone is very important and is almost the dividing line between guitar enthusiasts and professional guitarists.
It is also a way to exercise your brain.
There is also a long period of sight-singing and ear training, which also has a great effect. Yi Yang doesn’t have absolute pitch, he only learns to think in the first tune, and he can already sing some simplified music very proficiently. This will also be an ability that will be reflected on the guitar in the future.
However, Yi Yang’s progress was expected, and she had always had great confidence in Yi Yang.
What surprised Jiang Lili even more was Zhang Bushou. It only takes him a few months to play the basic drum kit… Of course, he can’t say how good he is at playing, but just those basic rhythm patterns… he is very proficient!
As for Ning Zhixin, there is not much to say. The little girl is very low-key, but very stable. To a certain extent, she is the core of the band.
Then Jiang Lili used the arranger keyboard to simply simulate the final appearance of the accompaniment on the computer… How can I put it, naturally it cannot be said to be very advanced, after all, it is all very basic things. But everything is there, and if it were a live performance, it would be the same thing.
Campus bands should not have too high expectations. The music school where Jiang Lili works is a bit better. It is usually an ordinary college. Many students are enthusiastic. They just bought a bass and dare to invite people to form a band on Tieba. After learning In less than a month, I dared to perform on stage…
What matters is an atmosphere.
Again, the threshold for a band is actually not that high. Experts have their own ways of playing, and novices have their own ways of playing…
Once each gets their own score, they can practice separately, and then get together to rehearse on the weekends. Although time is still tight, if I only practice this song, I will still have enough time before New Year’s Day.
Of course, the current level is just a life adjustment in my spare time…it is still far from being on a bigger stage.
…
When I came out from Jiang Lili’s place, it was still afternoon.
Zhang Bushou’s mother wanted to go out for a while. The shop needed to be guarded temporarily, so he went back first.
Yi Yang and Ning Zhixin walked together and looked up. There were thin clouds in the sky, like a thin quilt. They looked a little cold. Ning Zhixin hugged herself.
After walking for a while, someone spoke.
It’s about my childhood.
Ning Zhixin looked at the clouds in the sky and seemed to be very touched…
“Actually… I can sympathize with you… I don’t have a father either.”
Yi Yang was silent.
“Actually, my hometown is not from here. My hometown… well, it’s probably thousands of kilometers away. When I was a child, people on my father’s side didn’t like me… because I’m a girl.” She sighed slightly: “For a while, I also hoped to have a younger brother, so maybe my father and mother would be a little happier…”
“Then something happened to my father…and he died. Grandma thought it was my mother’s fault. She was superstitious…she scolded her every day…and couldn’t stay any longer. When I was very young, my grandfather and grandma didn’t like me because I I am a girl, so one day when my mother asked me whether I should choose grandma or mother, I did not hesitate…”
“My mother was admitted to be a civil servant here, and then I came here… After working for a short time, my mother resigned from the civil service and started a business. She was very busy anyway… and she didn’t have much time to accompany me. Hey, but it’s okay. In fact, I have long been used to it.”
Listening to Ning Zhixin’s calm words, Yi Yang was shocked and couldn’t help but interject: “You’re not rebellious…”
“Hehe… everyone is different. Aren’t you the same?”
“Me… maybe.” Yi Yang also looked up at the sky and sighed slowly.
“You… how about you tell me about your childhood?”
“Are you going to expose my scar?”
“Hey, what does that have to do with it? Didn’t I expose it to you just now… Actually it’s not right, it’s time to let go. You have to learn to let go, otherwise it will look like…” Ning Zhixin thought for a while, her eyes A smile appeared: “Immature…”
Yi Yang also smiled and his eyes began to recall.
It’s been a long, long memory…
“I have no memory of my father… I was too young when he passed away. As for my mother, she is probably still alive… I can’t remember exactly. My father died not long ago and left me behind… Actually, that’s okay I understand, but it’s hard to forgive…”
“Oh…then you like dad more.”
Ning Zhixin suddenly stopped and looked at Yi Yang seriously: “Yi Yang, do you think our friendship…will last forever?”
Ning Zhixin has always given people a very peaceful impression, and even gives people the illusion of maturity… But at this time, what she said was still a bit childish.
There is no need to go through more than half of your life, thirty years is enough…enough to know that there is no lasting friendship in this world? It seems to last forever, but time and distance have not had a chance to kill it. Therefore, having one or two close friends in life is extremely precious.
However, Yi Yang thought for a moment and nodded seriously: “Yes…”
