I was honored to attend the concert as the host and singer.
I was honored to attend the concert as the host and singer, and witnessed Chen Ke grow from a young boy with a dream to a promising young man who never forgets his beginnings, pursues his dreams, and keeps moving forward.
It was a year ago, inadvertently in the group chat records of the Association found a few lyrics of Chen Ke, feeling that the writing is relatively fresh and elegant, simple and natural, and then praised a few words from the heart. Later learned that he is still a senior student, can not help but be extraordinarily surprised.
Xiangxi this piece of land, green mountains and beautiful water has raised a lot of strange people, like the well-known Shen Congwen, Huang Yongyu, etc., they are by the history of Xiangxi landscape moistened by the sun and the lucky children, in order to Xiangxi's landscape, scenery and people to show in the end of the pen, will be full of talent into a beautiful text, colorful and colorful show in front of people.
And what kind of person is this senior teenager? In the group of the Association, in front of the famous celebrities or teachers, he was not afraid, always not humble, humble, good to learn, not ashamed to ask. After becoming a micro-friends, only gradually understand that he is a meticulous work, things to pursue, not afraid of suffering and not afraid to suffer the dream of the young man.
During that time, it so happened that my college classmate Tang Changfei (Hunan Normal University School of Music piano teacher and songwriter) asked me if I had any good lyrics on hand. I recommended this young boy who loves to write lyrics to him. The two of them hit it off right away, and a song "How I want to walk into you" was born!
The first time I got the sheet music, I especially like this song, he is an overseas traveler to the motherland of the feelings of longing depicted to the fullest, the overseas traveler to the Chinese culture, the Chinese civilization of a thousand years of speculation, as well as close to the home of the feelings of the more fearful of the ambivalence of the psychological portrayal of the three points. The first half of the piece shows the kind of light sadness, tenderness and lingering and the second half of the performance of the waves of excitement, all make my blood spurting.
With their permission, I tried to record a version of "How I Want to Walk Into You", but I felt that the recording was not as good as I would have liked. But due to my usual busy schedule, the matter was put on the back burner.
Not long after the New Year, Ke Ke WeChat said, want to come to my home to play, a question, his home is not far from my home, will be happy to agree. Who knows with him a chat is a morning! He revealed to me that he wanted to organize a personal works concert ideas and thoughts, I of course, full support, and immediately for his ideas. I asked him if he'd like to join us for lunch, and he was happy to accept.
When we arrived at the ancient city to drink tea and chat, another beautiful woman happened to be a guzheng professional, learned that his songs need a guzheng accompaniment, my best friend immediately promised to help.
That day, we chatted until very late, and everyone was very excited. Both because it's been a long time since we've seen each other, and more for the marvelous and unique ideas of this young handsome boy. Knowing that many people at the age of 18 have no idea what they want, including ourselves! At the age of 18, we secretly expressed our feelings and decided to do our best to help him realize his dream.
With that, we agreed to participate in the performance of his solo work concert. After a few days, Ke Ke informed me by WeChat that he wanted me to help him host the whole party.
At that time, I was a little hesitant, because there is singing time avoid distraction distraction, if hosting, certainly will be distracted, and with the voice will be quite a lot. However, in those days, through chatting, I learned that his aunt is my high school classmate, and his uncle, but I have known each other for many years, and participated in vocal competitions together in the early years of the singing friends. I was obliged to do so. The first time I saw this, I was able to get the ball rolling.
On the day of the performance, I realized that all the things are his own, including the singer, art director and expert teacher car travel accommodation, food, clothing and transportation. Crosstalk until on the stage before the opening of the twenty minutes to get, more laughable is, on the stage before two or three minutes, he hurried to the backstage, snatched our hands crosstalk, pick up a pen, squatting on the ground, on the head of the knee, hastily wrote down the names and titles of all the guests present.
Because of the time rush, he wrote too scribbling, my partner _ male host on stage read several places wrong, I had no choice but to put the speed of speech fast, as if the only way to make up for his mistakes.
Later, a colleague asked me, "Why are you talking so fast on stage? I've never seen you speak so fast!
That night, we were perhaps the most flustered hosts in history, right?
However, the speed of speech did not affect the smooth progress of the entire evening, the evening climax layer after layer, several artists from Beijing, the wonderful high-pitched voice of the audience applauded constantly. Especially good friends guzheng accompaniment of the song "string reverie" is to win a burst of applause.
Before my turn to sing, I was busy and rushed to the dressing room to change out of the host clothing, put on the performance clothes, then I had time to the song hastily run through once. I'm not sure if you're going to be able to find a way to get the best out of your life, but I'm sure you're going to be able to find a way to get the best out of your life! Luckily, there were only two words left, and with a flash of light in my mind, all the lyrics flowed back to me like a spring. The second part of the song is very easy to sing, all the emotions, all the images are floating in front of my eyes.
Now that the show has been over for a while, it's still a lot of fun to look back on. And the little boy who chased his dream has also returned to his university to continue his studies, in order to realize his dream as soon as possible and struggling.
The little boy is pursuing his dream in his own direction, and on the road of vocal music learning, why wouldn't I have been a dreamer too? Let's not forget the original intention and move forward in the direction that we have decided!
