Chapter 585 Confirming the Repertoire

Although Xiao Yao's original intention of participating in this year's NBA All-Star Weekend Celebrity Game is to take Sun Tingting to play together and help her relax, but the Celebrity Game is essentially a commercial event, and there will be some things that need the help of a private team. Agents and assistants are also very necessary, so Xiao Yao also brought Fang Yiran and Pei Minyi with him when he came to the United States this time. . update the fastest

However, Xiao Yao took Fang still and Pei Minyi just to go to the Masters in Los Angeles. When they were with Sun Tingting in New York, the two members of the private team were fine.

On the second day after arriving in New York, Fang Yiran and Pei Minyi didn't want to disturb the young couple who had reunited after a long absence, so they bid farewell to the two consciously, saying that they would go shopping on Fifth Avenue in Manhattan together. It is not the first time that Fang Yiran and Pei Min have come to New York with Xiao Yao. There is no problem with language, and they went to a rich area with very good security. Xiao Yao is still very relieved about this. , went to Chambers Conservatory of Music with Sun Tingting.

Sun Tingting is about to participate in the graduation recital. There are no courses for the time being. The main task in the near future is to prepare for the graduation recital and practice the performance repertoire.

After the two arrived at the Conservatory of Music, Xiao Yao first accompanied Sun Tingting to the dormitory to pick up the instrument, and then went directly to the rehearsal hall to listen to Sun Tingting's re-arranged violin version of "faded".

After listening to Sun Tingting's performance, Xiao Yao closed his eyes and imagined the performance of this piece at the concert. He felt that the effect should be very good, and he didn't seem to have anything to improve, so he immediately praised it. Sun Tingting's musical talent.

Xiao Yao didn't praise immediately after listening to it, but closed his eyes and thought for a while before opening his mouth. This compliment seemed more sincere. Sun Tingting was also very happy after listening to it, and Dang even decided on the song.

Although Sun Tingting can choose two pieces at the graduation recital, these two pieces also need to be reviewed by the tutor, and the final confirmation needs to be approved by the tutor. After deciding on this song in her heart, Sun Tingting couldn't wait to find her tutor to confirm her fourth performance.

Last night Xiao Yao promised to help Sun Tingting write another new song, and he already had some drafts in mind. This piece is not a solo violin piece, and it's not just a matter of writing a score for Sun Tingting. Xiao Yao also wants to help her get the soundtrack. Sun Tingting was going to find her tutor to determine the repertoire, and it was inappropriate for Xiao Yao to go with her, so she planned to rent a recording studio to help Sun Tingting get another song out first.

After discussing with Sun Tingting, he would contact him by phone after finishing the work there. After going to the recording studio to find him, Xiao Yao temporarily parted ways with Sun Tingting and went out to find the recording studio.

Chambers Conservatory of Music is a well-known music school in the United States, and there are some recording studios nearby. It didn't take long for Xiao Yao to find an empty recording studio after leaving school. Xiao Yao went in to have a look, and after learning about the musical instruments and equipment,

I think it is more appropriate. After negotiating the price with the boss, and sending the name and address of the recording studio to Sun Tingting, Xiao Yao plunged into the recording studio.

After entering the recording room, Xiao Yao first found a pen and paper to write out the score of the violin part of the piece, and then began to record the soundtrack.

About an hour later, Sun Tingting came over with the piano case and food on her back.

At this time, it was almost meal time, and Xiao Yao happened to be hungry. Seeing Sun Tingting bring food over, Xiao Yao stopped immediately, took out the food and had lunch with Sun Tingting.

During the meal, Sun Tingting also told Xiao Yao about the result of going to the tutor in the morning. Judging from the time when Sun Tingting came here, Xiao Yao felt that Sun Tingting's mentor should have agreed to Sun Tingting's "faded" as a performance track, and probably even gave him on-site guidance, otherwise it would not be possible to delay it for so long. And Sun Tingting did tell Xiao Yao that her mentor agreed with her to use "faded" as a performance track, and now only the last piece has not yet been determined.

Since it is pure music, not a song, there is no problem that it is not suitable to sing after eating. After lunch, Xiao Yao gave the written score to Sun Tingting.

"You are such a great genius!" Seeing what he said last night, Xiao Yao took out the finished product in less than half a day, and Sun Tingting happily kissed Xiao Yao's forehead hard.

"Don't be too happy, you'd better take a look first," Xiao Yao said with a smile, "Is this piece too popular, and the whole piece should be about four and a half minutes, and the violin part should be about one minute It’s coming out later, I’m not sure if it’s appropriate.”

"Huh?" Sun Tingting calmed down a bit, looked at the score in her hand and said, "The violin won't appear until one minute after the four and a half minute piece? Is this the violin piece you wrote for me?"

"Of course!" Xiao Yao nodded, "Although this song has other musical instruments and other background sounds, the most prominent one is definitely the violin. But I'm not sure if such a song is suitable for you. This is a piece I like very much, and I plan to record it and release it anyway. If it is not suitable for your graduation recital, at worst, I will write another one for you.”

"So this song is your old stock, not what you wrote now?" Sun Tingting looked at Xiao Yao and smiled, "I thought it was just written by you! It seems that you are not such a genius!"

"I didn't say I was a great genius!" Xiao Yao smiled wryly.

"But that's amazing!" Sun Tingting smiled as if comforting Xiao Yao, "I still admire you very much."

"Of course you have to worship me all the time." Xiao Yao said with a smile, "You will soon become a famous young performer from Chambers. If I don't have any skills, how can I be worthy of you and hold you firmly catch?"

"Cut~ I'm obviously the one who has been worried that you will be abducted by others, okay?" Sun Tingting gave Xiao Yao a charming white look.

"Okay," Xiao Yao smiled, without arguing about it, picked up an earphone on the console next to it and handed it over, then changed the subject and said, "Let's listen to the soundtrack I just made, and then I'll tell you Take this piece. Let's record it first."

"Is the soundtrack ready?" Sun Tingting asked in surprise.

"It's just a part of it." Xiao Yao smiled, "There is a drum set in the soundtrack, let me listen to it first, and feel the rhythm and overall feeling."

"Okay!" Sun Tingting nodded and put on the earphones.

Xiao Yao saw that Sun Tingting had put on the earphones, operated the equipment in front of him, and released part of the soundtrack that he had just made.

After listening to the soundtrack, Sun Tingting said that she felt pretty good, and then she took out her violin, and went to the recording room with the sheet music in hand, to practice her violin part, while Xiao Yao continued to make the following soundtrack.

After Sun Tingting got acquainted with it for a while, and felt that it was almost the same, Xiao Yao also finished the soundtrack of the whole song. Xiao Yao gave Sun Tingting the soundtrack of the whole piece again, and then began to direct Sun Tingting to record the violin part.

After almost an afternoon of busy work, the two finally recorded the demo of this song. Sun Tingting likes this song very much, and also wants to use this song as a performance in her graduation concert, but whether she can decide it in the end depends on whether her tutor approves it.

The two copied the recorded demo, Xiao Yao settled the fee with the recording studio owner, and left the recording studio together. It was already nightfall by this time, and the two of them found an elegant and quiet restaurant without being disturbed, and enjoyed an emotional candlelight dinner.

Not long after he came out of the restaurant, Xiao Yao received a call from Paul, saying that he was invited to a party with Sun Tingting, Fang Yiran, and Pei Minyi. Xiao Yao clutched the microphone of the phone and relayed Paul's invitation to Sun Tingting beside him. Sun Tingting waved her hand indifferently, signaling Xiao Yao to do whatever she wanted. Xiao Yao thought for a while, but still rejected Paul's invitation, and replied that he wanted to be alone with Sun Tingting. Fang Yiran and Pei Minyi were not with them, so they asked them to call Fang Yiran and Pei Minyi to ask the two girls.

Sun Tingting didn't say anything, but she was very satisfied with Xiao Yao's performance in her heart. After Xiao Yao hung up the phone, Sun Tingting hugged Xiao Yao's arm happily.

Chambers Conservatory of Music is also a rich area with good security in New York. The hotel where Xiao Yao lived was not far from the Chambers Conservatory of Music, and the two of them did not take a taxi during the day, but walked to the school. Although it was night at this time, it was not too late, and the two of them planned to walk all the way back to the hotel.

In the past two years, the two have been together less and separated more, and Sun Tingting misses the feeling of close contact between the two. When the two walked halfway, Sun Tingting had already leaned her whole body on Xiao Yao, almost being led away by Xiao Yao. Naturally, Xiao Yao didn't think that Sun Tingting felt heavy leaning on him, but walking like this was a bit awkward, so he simply handed back the violin case that Sun Tingting was carrying in his hand, and then bent down to carry Sun Tingting on her back.

"Bajie, sing me your "Song of Pigs" again!" Xiao Yao carried Sun Tingting on his back and walked a few steps. Sun Tingting hung her arms in front of Xiao Yao, and her upper body lay on Xiao Yao smiled on his shoulder.

After growing up, this was the second time Xiao Yao walked with Sun Tingting on his back. The last time was when Xiao Yao took Sun Tingting to Xiao Chengru's place and came back from the park. After Xiao Yao carried Sun Tingting on his back this time, Sun Tingting unconsciously remembered the scene when Xiao Yao carried her back last time, and then remembered the song "Song of Pigs" that Xiao Yao sang at that time.

"Pig~" Xiao Yao nodded and said.

"So cute!" Sun Tingting laughed.

"Bajie carries his wife!" Xiao Yao didn't continue singing, but shouted and ran.

"Ah~" Sun Tingting screamed in fright, and at the same time, due to Xiao Yao's sudden acceleration, her entire upper body tilted backwards, and her hands raised unconsciously.

"boom!"

Sun Tingting held the violin case in her right hand, and placed it in front of Xiao Yao again. When she lifted it up, the violin case just hit Xiao Yao's face. Although Xiao Yao reacted quickly and immediately bowed his head to the side to save his face, he was hit on the right side of his forehead.

"Ah!" Xiao Yao screamed and stopped.

"Ah! Are you okay?" Sun Tingting also knew that Xiao Yao had been hit, so she hurriedly asked concerned.

"It's okay!" Xiao Yao smiled, "I got hit on the forehead, but didn't hit the face."

"Let me down! Let me see!" Sun Tingting twisted.

Xiao Yao put Sun Tingting down, and Sun Tingting checked Xiao Yao's head by the light on the street, and found that there was nothing wrong with it, so she said bitterly: "You deserve it! Who told you to make trouble!"

"It's okay, come up!" Xiao Yao squatted down and said.

"Forget it, don't recite it!" Sun Tingting shook her head and said, "It's not far away, let's walk back together."

Xiao Yao didn't insist anymore. After standing up, he glanced at a cinema on the side of the road, and pointed out: "It's still early, and there's nothing to do when you go back. Why don't you go to a movie!"

It has been more than three years since the two confirmed their relationship, but watching movies together is a very common activity in dating, and Sun Tingting immediately nodded in agreement and said, "Okay!"

Although the two places have been separated for a long time, the two who have been in a relationship for three years already have skin-to-skin relatives, and Xiao Yao doesn't need to choose the horror movie that is a weapon to promote the relationship. After entering the theater, the two picked a movie with the closest opening time to buy tickets, popcorn and drinks. It didn't take long for the movie to be checked, and the two of them checked the tickets and entered the theater.

Xiao Yao is a film actor and has made short films. Sun Tingting's parents are both actors, and her father is also a director and screenwriter. Both of them can be regarded as professionals. Although the movie the two randomly selected was just a mid-level popcorn movie, Xiao Yao unconsciously whispered to Sun Tingting about some professional issues in the movie while watching the movie.

Sun Tingting currently feels satisfied as long as she stays with Xiao Yao. Even though the experience of watching movies this time is very different from that of ordinary couples watching movies, she didn't hear many love words, but instead listened to a lot of movie language, Sun Tingting still had a happy smile on her face when she went out.

When leaving the theater gate, Sun Tingting's eyes accidentally caught sight of a poster next to the theater gate, and she paused unconsciously.

"What's the matter?" Xiao Yao followed Sun Tingting's eyes and found that she was looking at a movie poster, so he smiled, "Which one do you want to see? Then let's watch another one!"

"No need, that's a teaser poster! It hasn't been released yet!" Sun Tingting smiled, and pulled Xiao Yao to continue walking outside.

"Oh!" Xiao Yao nodded, and when he continued to walk out, he couldn't help looking back at the poster curiously, and suddenly his heart moved.

After the two returned to the hotel, they naturally fell in love for another night without mentioning it.

the next day. Fang still and Pei Minyi continued to act alone, while Xiao Yao and Sun Tingting went to Chambers Conservatory of Music again.

After arriving at the Chambers Conservatory of Music, Fang still took the demo recorded by Xiao Yao yesterday to find his tutor to confirm the last performance. Xiao Yao found a quiet place and met Fang Yiran and Joey Bielsa respectively Made a phone call.

About an hour later, Sun Tingting called Xiao Yao and asked him to go directly to the rehearsal hall he had been to yesterday.

After entering the rehearsal hall, Xiao Yao was not only present with Sun Tingting alone, but also a middle-aged white man in his fifties with empty hands and several young musicians holding or sitting behind the instruments.

After seeing Xiao Yao coming in, Sun Tingting stepped forward and pulled Xiao Yao, and introduced him to the others present. Among them, the oldest, a middle-aged white man in his fifties, is Sun Tingting's tutor, and the others are the musicians who are responsible for the soundtrack accompaniment for the three students in this graduation recital.

It turned out that Sun Tingting's tutor also agreed to use this piece as the performance piece of the graduation concert after listening to the sample that Sun Tingting took. However, the accompaniment of other instruments will not be played at the concert. Except for some special sound effects, the soundtrack of other instruments is also performed live, and they need to rehearse a live version.

Sun Tingting's tutor is a professional. It is not difficult to hear which instruments are in the soundtrack, and it is not difficult to hear the scores of various instruments. But since Xiao Yao, the composer and arranger, is there, there is no point in taking the time to grab the score based on the demo. After listening to Sun Tingting's introduction of the origin of the piece, Sun Tingting's tutor called together several musicians needed, and then asked Sun Tingting to find Xiao Yao, and asked Xiao Yao to write them the scores of each instrument.

For Sun Tingting's teacher's request, Xiao Yao naturally had nothing to say. Picking up the pen and paper prepared in the rehearsal hall, it didn't take long to write out the scores of several instruments for the musicians.

Xiao Yao didn't want to disturb Sun Tingting's rehearsal with the musicians, and originally planned to leave after writing the score, but after watching Xiao Yao write the score live, Sun Tingting's mentor was very interested in Xiao Yao, so he stayed to watch the rehearsal together .
