Sitting in front of an informal keyboard and in a shabby bar, blue Li, with a white shirt and jeans, casually picked up a piece of piano music composed by Chopin improvisation. It doesn't seem to be profound or partial, but it's a movement familiar to many people. It seems that it's not difficult or unpopular. It's a movement chosen by many people in the exam, but the difficulty is absolutely extraordinary, Only the real memory of superb, can show that kind of flowing, surging and magnificent, light and accurate, full of emotion, skill leisurely performance, the kind of cool and elegant temperament play incisively and vividly.
Just for a moment like this, it's amazing. This is definitely not the height that any grass-roots musician can reach, nor the standard that any short-term training can hand over, nor the temperament that any down and out poet can have.
"Young master." Timothy could not help mumbling and repeating the nickname. He thought it was just a name for a movie role from fans, but now he has to chew it carefully. That elegant and calm temperament, in this piano melody, show incisively and vividly. Maybe, Lan Li is indeed a young master.
After the performance of a piece, lanli didn't leave any breathing space, nor did he leave any interview space. His fingers slowed down, and the piano music gradually became soft and gentle, like a gurgling stream, flowing slowly in his ears. Then the melody stopped suddenly, and lanli's voice came from the microphone again, "in the night, you announce the end of everything, But you're just lost in the dark
Sing, start again“ The moving melody of "firmly believe no doubt" follows the vicissitudes of life and hoarse voice and rises like smoke. Without any language, everyone in the audience entered the wonderful world, listening to the story of Jacob and Anna, listening to the story of "crazy love".
Tonight, sleepless.
For an album audition, 16 songs are much longer than ordinary albums. However, even if you listen to every song once, and then invite some fans to share their opinions, two hours is enough; Pioneer Village still has 30 minutes of half-time, so tonight's audition will be held from 8:00 to 10:30.
After 10:30, the bar will be open normally. Not externally, but internally. If there are fans who are willing to stay at the audition, if there are fans who want to continue to communicate with their friends, if there are fans who want to continue to play in Pioneer Village, then Stanley is naturally open to welcome.
But who would have thought that the unexpected appearance of lanli made the development deviate from the original track. The audition of the album turned into a small concert. Even though there was a short interview in the middle, it was only 90 minutes before and after, and the party was over at about 9:30. This is really unexpected.
However, for every audience present, they are still not satisfied. Not only because they met like-minded partners, not only because they listened to the album Don Quixote, not only because they listened to lenley's singing live, but also because they realized for the first time that live performance is irreplaceable, even though the album itself has made people look at it with new eyes, But the live performance of lanli made them completely surrender!
Every performance, every song, is different, because the performer's state, mood and engagement, but also because the audience's state, mood and response, the effect is completely different, or unique. Langley's performance eclipsed the studio version of Don Quixote.
Timothy said that only when he has really listened to live performances can he really understand the essence of Don Quixote. The audience here thought it was.
Performance, the end, even if reluctant to give up, but ultimately the end.
That night, Neil set up two cameras in the bar. The original intention was to record the scene and show it to Lan Li; If the picture quality is good, Neil also plans to upload it to the pipeline, so that more people can listen to the album of Don Quixote. Although the sales road of the album is extremely difficult, they can't give up, even if it's not for profit, even if it's not for dream, just for the album, for the painstaking efforts of Langley and George, They don't want Don Quixote to be completely buried.
As a result, lanli's unexpected presence fulfilled Neil's wish.
After that, Neil uploaded the video of that night to the oil pipe, recording the performance of 16 singles and the temporary interview. This is the first time that people enjoy the live performance of Langley in such an all-round way, and it is also the first time that people have a close and in-depth understanding of Langley——
This is not the official voice of the "Allen Show" or magazine interviews, but a question and answer from the masses, from the real world and from real life. The only pity is that all the questions are about music, and only about music. That's not good news for lenley fans.
The whole video is 105 minutes long, which is really out of place for the tubing culture in the era of fast food. People simply don't have the patience to spend such a long time just to watch a performance. Comparatively speaking, people prefer the three minute, four minute short and pithy videos like music videos.
Not only that, this performance is about Don Quixote, a music album that few people have heard of so far. It's really difficult to attract more attention. Only relying on "Cleopatra", "Ophelia" and other videos accumulated attention, is still a drop in the bucket.
Therefore, after Neil uploaded the video, the number of hits did not grow fast. With 300000 subscribers, the 24-hour browsing volume is just over 7000, but the amazing thing is that the number of likes has reached 5000, and the proportion of browsing and likes is appalling.
However, just like Cleopatra, this video named "Pioneer Village night" by Neil has a slow and steady growth in browsing. A month later, the number of views exceeded 100000; Six months later, it successfully broke through one million, growing faster and faster, and spreading more and more widely.
A year later, "Pioneer Village night" has seen more than 20 million views on the pipeline, and the number of likes has reached 4 million. Compared with the number of views, the number of likes is almost incredible.
At that time, the browsing volume of tubing videos was in the unit of "100 million", just 20 million, which could not be ranked at all. Even if the number of likes was high, it was also downwind in front of those videos that liked tens of millions. However, "Pioneer Village night" has become the video of countless music lovers.
Because this night, lanli gave a master level performance; Because this night, it's all about music; Because this night, they once again found their inner home; Because this night, "Don Quixote" album officially appeared in front of people; Because this night, the music industry in North America is quietly changing.
Countless senior professional music lovers are holding hands and feet. They can't appreciate the madness and beauty of that night, the charm of lanli's live performance, the madness of "simple life", the moving of "Cleopatra", the freehand brushwork of "old pine tree" and the sadness of "beast" just through the video, The poetry of "Los Angeles"... It's an emotion that can't be recorded in the video. Only when you are really in the scene, only when you are really in it, can you feel it.
No one expected that "Pioneer Village night" could have such a powerful and far-reaching influence. Even that night, everyone present was deeply immersed in it.
"Young master..." after the performance, before the crowd dissolved and there was no riot, Timothy could not wait to shout out, because they knew that there was no encore performance tonight, and the 16 songs of the whole album had been performed. They were satisfied, so Timothy's voice successfully spread. However, as soon as he cried out, Timothy couldn't help smiling: young master, this title is a bit awkward, but it's natural.
"I'd like to ask, you just said that the song" firmly believe "was created for" crazy love ", right?" Timothy could not help recalling the cry of despair again, "say something, say something, even if it's a 'I love you' It's easy to touch the strings in his heart. He didn't shed tears, but he felt the sadness that he wanted to cry but couldn't cry out. For the story behind the song and the film, Timothy became interested in it. "Excuse me, when will the film be released?"
All the people around quieted down and looked at Lan Li.
Lan Li did not expect such a question, Leng Leng, "after the Toronto Film Festival." Nathan said it once before his holiday, but he couldn't remember it. Then, Lan Li chuckled, "why, are you willing to contribute to the box office in the cinema?"
"Of course, it's my pleasure." What timsey didn't say is that he decided to buy 100 albums, promote them in the forum, and then introduce them to his friends. Just thinking about it, his blood began to boil.
That's because there are more important things to do at the moment.
Timothy took out the album in his pocket. Originally, he took it for granted that it was the admission certificate, but now he has other intentions. In three steps and two steps, Timothy stepped onto the stage and handed the album to lanli. "Young master, can you sign for me? I love this album. No, to be exact, I'm crazy about it. "
Not Langley, but Don Quixote.
Langley thought of George. The smile on the corner of his mouth was bright. His long, narrow eyes curved in a gentle arc. He nodded, "it's my pleasure."
