Chapter 1147 Rebellion against Tiangang
The little girl who requested the song at the beginning didn't understand "The Butterfly Lovers." Most children wouldn't like a song that wasn't lively or cheerful enough.
She felt that since the older sister playing the flute had played a tune chosen by an adult, she should play another tune chosen by a child.
So she raised her little hand high and called out to Su Xing, "Sister, sister! Can you play 'Don't Look Down on Me, I'm Just a Sheep' on the wind?"
An older man who originally wanted to request a song closed his mouth again after hearing the young girl request a song before him.
Su Xing smiled at the little girl and said, "Sure."
The animated series "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf" is a part of countless people's childhood. When it first aired in 2005, Su Xing was still a child, so it was also part of her childhood.
Su Xing was certainly familiar with the theme song of this animation, and she had already memorized the sheet music.
She held the bamboo flute to her lips and began to play.
The little girl who requested the song was very happy. She swayed her head to the rhythm and hummed the song, singing louder and louder.
Now, it's Su Xing and the little girl performing together.
It wasn't just the child's mother who was taking pictures with her phone; several other onlookers also took out their phones to film them.
When the song ended, enthusiastic applause erupted from the crowd.
"Clap clap-!"
These applause weren't just for Su Xing, but also for the young girl who sang so confidently.
The little girl sang well; her voice was tender and sweet, and she was especially cute. Plus, she was naturally pretty, making her even more likable.
"She plays the flute well and sings well too."
"Both the young ladies and the older girls are very poised and confident, which is really admirable."
The little girl was both happy and a little embarrassed when everyone praised her.
She buried her head in her mother's arms, but when she heard everyone praising her for being generous and poised, she pulled her head out of her mother's arms and tidied her hair with her little hands.
A burst of muffled laughter immediately erupted from the surrounding area.
Su Xing also found the little girl's reaction interesting and smiled with his eyes crinkling.
The uncle who had been a few seconds slower than the little girl finally got his chance to request a song, "Girl, can you play the song 'Country Road'?"
Su Xing said to me, "If you've memorized the score, you can give it a try."
"Come on, play it for me."
Su Xing recalled the score for a moment and began to play.
This song was a very popular folk song in the 80s, and most people over middle age are familiar with it.
Several people hummed along to the rhythm of the flute music.
After Su Xing finished playing the piece, he looked up and noticed that even more people had gathered around.
The little girl on the bench next to us raised her hand high again and started requesting a song, "Sister, can you play 'If You Love Me, Hug Me'?"
Su Xing nodded and said, "Okay."
She has memorized quite a few sheet music pieces that are familiar to both adults and children in the past few months.
For the next while, the little girl would request a children's song, and the adults watching would request a classic old song.
The two groups seemed to have reached a tacit understanding; you requested one song, and I requested another.
Su Xing, however, became a ruthless instrumental player...
Except for two pieces that she hadn't seen the sheet music for and couldn't play, she played all the others.
Bu Diu had already lay down, its mouth resting on its mother's shoe, its eyes closed, entering its own little world.
Occasionally, someone's hand would reach out and stroke Bu Diu's head, but Bu Diu didn't sense any malice and didn't even bother to lift its eyelids.
Suddenly, Su Xing heard a somewhat aged voice say, "Girl, can you play 'Jade Hibiscus'?"
She immediately looked up and followed the sound.
She saw an elderly man in his sixties or seventies staring intently at her.
Su Xing smiled and said, "I've tried playing it a few times, but I'm still not very skilled. Please give me some guidance, teacher."
"Jade Hibiscus" is a grade 7 exam piece for the bamboo flute. This old man who chose this piece must be an expert.
She held the bamboo flute to her lips and began to play.
This piece will utilize techniques such as overlapping tones, trills, vibrato, and grace notes. If it is to be performed according to the requirements of the Level 7 exam, it will also involve the use of techniques such as glissando and staccato, in order to demonstrate the performer's ability to grasp different musical styles and emotions.
The old man who requested a song nodded gently as he listened to Su Xing's playing.
After Su Xing finished playing "Jade Hibiscus," he looked expectantly at the elderly man who had requested the song, "Teacher, do you think there's anything I could have done better?"
The old man thought for a moment, then pulled out a bamboo flute from behind him and began to play the same tune, "Jade Hibiscus."
The people around were quite surprised. Another flute player had appeared!
This old man seems to be quite skilled.
The little girl on the bench next to them stopped requesting songs and looked curiously at the old man who had also started playing the flute.
The old man finished playing his tune, then smiled at Su Xing and asked, "How do you feel?"
Su Xing stood up and bowed to the old man, saying, "Thank you for your guidance, teacher."
The old man smiled and asked Su Xing, "What other tunes do you play? Play another one for us."
Two other men of similar age were standing next to the old man, also sizing up Su Xing.
One of the old men even glanced at the erhu box she had placed on the bench.
Su Xing's heart skipped a beat. He took a closer look at the old man and saw that he was also carrying a box slung across his shoulder.
She rolled her eyes and said with a smile, "There's a piece of music that I wouldn't say I'm particularly good at, but I've practiced quite a lot."
The old man playing the flute said, "Then play it now."
Su Xing held up the bamboo flute, got a feel for it, and began to play.
She had only played a few notes when the three old men opposite her widened their eyes in surprise!
"This this……"
"Did I hear that right??"
Some people around who knew a little about folk music recognized it at that moment.
"This looks like... Horse Racing??"
"Huh? Isn't this a piece that many erhu players use to show off their skills? She actually played it on a bamboo flute??"
"Reversing the Heavenly Gang..."
The old man who was playing the flute laughed at that moment.
He said, "Don't make a fuss. Many masters can play this piece, 'Horse Racing,' on the flute. The flute's high notes are clear and the articulation is crisp, which can accurately simulate the rapid rhythm of galloping hooves."
He could tell, of course, that the girl was playing that tune on purpose.
Interesting.
Everyone: "..."
They could already hear that the girl playing the flute used variations in the strength of her breath to depict the dynamics of the horses, from trotting to galloping to sprinting, as if they could hear the layers of "ten thousand horses galloping".
Using the bamboo flute to perform this piece adds a light and lively feel compared to other instruments.
It's amazing!
When Su Xing finished playing "Horse Racing," the applause and cheers that erupted around him were even louder than before.
After the noise subsided a bit, an old man next to the old man playing the flute suddenly spoke up.
He asked Su Xing, "I saw an erhu on your chair?"
Su Xing replied with a smile, "Yes, I can also play the erhu a little."
The old man asked, "You play 'Horse Racing' on your flute, so what do you play on your erhu?"
