But for Lu Qingfeng, who has absolute pitch, this is the easiest.
These cups are not all the same size, most are 300ml, with a few slightly larger and smaller.
He placed the cups in front of him one by one and began to pour water into them.
When it reaches a certain level, use a stick to knock on the rim of the cup to determine the pitch.
Everyone looked on in amazement.
Everyone present knew the principle, but it was very rare to actually play music in this way.
Lu Qingfeng moved quickly because he didn't need a tuner and could only rely on his ears to identify the sound.
He can quickly judge whether each scale is high or low and whether it is what he needs.
In just a few minutes, he had tuned out all the scales he needed.
"Okay, Brother Fei, please help me get the microphone."
The three people who had brought the cup over had not left. Wu Yongfei followed his instructions and took the microphone and moved in front of the cup.
Lu Qingfeng sat cross-legged on the ground with a pile of cups filled with water in front of him.
He raised the wooden stick in his hand and knocked it casually on the rim of the cup.
Various intervals were not organized into a system, and the crisp sound came out through the microphone.
The university students who were expectantly watching him were a little confused, but soon the chaotic sounds turned into a familiar tune.
"Little star?"
Someone said in surprise.
To be exact, it is "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star Variations".
This children's song, which is familiar to many people, is actually a French love song called "Mom, Please Listen to Me"
Twenty-two-year-old Mozart composed a piano piece based on this piece, which is "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star Variations"
There is another story here.
At that time, Mozart lived in poverty, his mother died of illness, and in his last years he could no longer hear the outside world.
After his mother passed away, Mozart adapted this piece of music to express what he wanted to say to her.
So, most of the melodies that sound cheerful are actually sad, lonely, and fearful.
There is darkness in the sunshine and sadness hidden in happiness.
The whole song consists of thirteen sections, and Lu Qingfeng only played the first theme section.
It is also the melody of Twinkle Twinkle Little Star that is most familiar to the public.
This was just a familiarization process, after all, it was his first time playing in this way.
Generally speaking, it's quite simple. There is a fixed scale, and you just need to play it rhythmically according to the melody score.
He began his formal presentation.
The wooden stick in his hand struck the notes D5 and D6.
Then comes D7 and D8.
These two groups of sounds are switched back and forth twice.
At this point, many people still couldn't understand what he was saying, but as the rhythm of the wooden stick in his hand began to change.
The different sounds of the water glasses began to form a beautiful melody.
Someone has already figured out what song this is.
"bell"
This world-famous piece adapted by Liszt from Paganini is considered one of the most difficult piano pieces.
If you look at the score of "The Bells," you'll see that the notes are almost connected.
This song was originally called "La Campanella"
The literal translation is a small bell.
So, after a brief prelude, the theme of the song soon appears.
The crisp and pleasant tone and short and powerful melody form a series of vivid and realistic bell sounds.
It fits perfectly with the sound of the wooden stick hitting the cup.
Of course, the timbre of a cup piano is certainly not as good as that of a piano, and the scales it can produce are limited.
Nor can we replicate the multiple variations of this famous song.
Especially the alternating play between the left and right hands, the rapid change of octaves, and the staccato with large interval jumps
These difficult techniques are difficult to perform on a water cup.
But for students, it is amazing enough.
When the song ended, there was applause and buzzing discussions.
Lu Qingfeng was about to put the cup away when a voice suddenly rang out from the crowd.
"another one."
This novel talent is indeed much more interesting than singing and dancing.
Everyone was still not satisfied, and someone took the lead, and everyone around started to make a fuss.
Lu Qingfeng didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but he didn't refuse.
He thought about it and adjusted the water in the glass.
This time he struck with more force.
A familiar melody came through the speakers, and everyone's DNA moved.
Including the instructor who was watching the fun from the side.
"The five-star red flag flutters in the wind, and the song of victory rings out loudly."
"Singing to our beloved motherland, from now on it will be prosperous and strong"
……
I don't know who started it, but a powerful chorus rang out in the playground.
At this time, the melody played by Lu Qingfeng had been drowned out by the singing.
He didn't care. Looking at the young faces around him singing passionately, his heart moved.
I know what music to come up with.
At nine o'clock in the evening, the students on the playground dispersed reluctantly.
Back in the dormitory, Guo Hao and the other two were still talking about the talent show that had just taken place.
Lu Qingfeng took out his cell phone and sent a message to the WeChat group he had created with a few people from the Arts and Literature Department.
"Senior, is senior here? I have some ideas about the song, but it's not complete yet. I need to look up some information and go to a few places. I need time, so I need to take leave for military training."
As soon as the message was sent, there was a reply.
"Okay, I'll take care of your leave request tonight."
The profile picture of Chen Xiuxiu, Minister of Culture and Art, is herself.
The most convenient thing about dealing with the student union is that they have connections with teachers in all departments.
Many things will be convenient.
Giving gifts on National Day every year is a tradition in many universities, but it cannot be said to be very important.
But this practice is also a tradition, and school leaders will also pay attention to it, so some small conveniences within this range are also easy to get.
"Mr. Lu, is there anything else you can help me with?"
Propaganda Minister Qian Feng asked.
Lu Qingfeng thought for a moment and said.
"If possible, I need a detailed history of Peking University's development. If possible, I would like to talk to some of the older generation who graduated from this university."
"I'll arrange for someone to collect the information for the first one, but the second one is a bit more complicated. Some of our school leaders are Peking University graduates. I can ask if they have time tomorrow."
"Trouble."
"Then, Senior Li and Senior Lin can also prepare. After the music is finished, I need the choir and symphony orchestra to coordinate and check for any omissions."
Li Jiaying and Lin Dong also replied in the group.
After everything was arranged, Lu Qingfeng began to think about the benefits that this first song would bring to him.
