Escape From the Library

【Music Melody-04】

Long tone, the key lies in the two presses and releases.Hold it down when the "head" of the bar note touches the bar, and release it when the "tail" of the note touches the bar.

If the left and right notes are the same length, pressed and released at the same time, it's easy.But once the notes that need to be processed by the left hand and the right hand are different, it is easy to make mistakes, which is equivalent to doing two things at once.

According to the instruction of his younger brother, Yue Xingwen successfully dealt with the first few long notes that fell.

But immediately afterwards, he discovered that the difficulty of this song is not just the handling of long notes. When the long notes fall, there are also fragmented notes, which often require one hand to press the long note and the other hand to quickly shoot it down. The notes were fragmented, and the left and right hands were alternately performed. In less than a minute, he was in a hurry and sweating profusely.

Fortunately, he still has a dictionary to help, and he uses mind control, which is equivalent to his "third hand".

The other students also exerted all their strength, wishing to become like Nezha!

Although this song is 8 minutes long, the number of notes is obviously much less than before, and the falling speed is also slower. Just concentrate, pay attention to the collection of long notes according to the beat, and try to smash the notes between the long notes. There were not many mistakes in the missing short notes, at least Yue Xingwen only missed one short note, and Jiang Pingce made another abnormal full combo.

At the end of the song, everyone was so tired that they sat on the beam of light.

Qi Luoran, who was standing in the middle of the stage conducting, also had sore arms. He turned around and looked at the big screen. After the numbers jumped for a while, the score of the third song appeared——

[The total number of notes in the song "Blue Danube" is 2400, 2390 are successfully collected, the highest combo is 1288, and the final score is A]

[The first level "rhythm" passed smoothly]

[The second level "Melody" is about to start, rest for 5 minutes]

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the prompt.

Qi Luoran rubbed his arms and said with a smile: "It's finally over, this is the most difficult rhythm game I've ever seen!"

Lan Yarong complained: "These 8 minutes are even more difficult than 8 hours. My heart is in my throat. I am afraid that the timing of letting go is wrong, and I will lose a bunch of notes all at once."

Qi Luoran looked up at the combo count statistics of each of the six, and looked at Jiang Pingce in surprise: "Brother Jiang is all connected again? How did you do it? You have studied music?"

Jiang Pingce has not answered yet, but Yue Xingwen said with a smile: "Ping Ce has never studied music, but in his eyes, these short and long notes can be converted into coordinates, and the horizontal line in front of him is his The x-axis, he can guess the time and speed of the note reaching the x-axis, and then press it down."

Qi Luoran was dumbfounded, but Jiang Pingce was very calm. He glanced at Yue Xingwen from a distance, slightly raised the corners of his lips, and said, "Xingwen is right. You press the notes according to the rhythm of the music. I press the notes according to the rhythm of the music." Press their distance from the horizontal axis."

Xu Yishen squinted his eyes and looked in Jiang Pingce's direction, jokingly said: "Junior Brother Jiang only has mathematics in his eyes, isn't it true that we are also moving coordinates in your eyes!"

Jiang Pingce glanced at Yue Xingwen: "That's not true."

Yue Xingwen didn't know what he meant by looking at him, so he smiled at the other party and said, "Let's prepare for the second part. I remember the second part is the melody. I don't know how to play it?"

Qi Luoran guessed: "Melody is a very important element of music. It generally refers to an organized and rhythmic sequence... Cough, according to Brother Jiang's understanding, it is just like a mathematical sequence."

"Sequence?" Jiang Pingce said clearly, "that is, to arrange the notes into a sequence, and the different sequences are connected together to form the whole song. Each melody has its own rules, just like a song. Sing a part, add a chorus, and add a verse? Is that the melody of ABA?"

Qi Luoran said: "That's right!"

Such an easy-to-understand explanation, everyone quickly understood, Lan Yarong said: "If the second environment is the melody, do you want to disrupt the melody of some songs and let us rearrange it?"

Qin Lu was eager to try: "It sounds more fun than the audio game just now!"

Qi Luoran scratched his hair and said, "I can't guess the specific rules of the game, but since it's the melody, it should have something to do with the order of arrangement that the senior brothers and sisters said."

The 5-minute break passed quickly, and the familiar mechanical sound reminded my ears again.

[The second level game starts]

[All 8 candidates are invited to come to the big stage. A series of notes will appear on the screen in the middle of the stage, and when the notes appear, the corresponding melody will sound at the same time. Each series of notes will only be played once. Please listen carefully]

[When a note appears, it will have a corresponding note group logo. All you need to do is to rearrange the 8 groups of notes to form a complete piece of music. There are three pieces of music in total]

[All correct evaluations are S, two groups in the wrong order are evaluated as A, and more than three groups fail the evaluation]

After listening to the prompt, Yue Xingwen and Jiang Pingce glanced at each other: "Sure enough, it's a sequence of numbers."

Xu Yishen touched his chin and said, "That is to say, divide a song into several sections, disrupt the original melody, play it for us, and let us rearrange it?"

Lan Yarong complained helplessly: "If you encounter a popular song that you have heard many times, the ranking will be very simple, but if it is a song that you have never heard before, how should you arrange it? Who knows which part is in the front and which part is in the back."

Qin Lu said: "The library will definitely not test our simple popular songs, should they be all kinds of world famous songs? I don't know much about those piano songs, so I can only rely on my junior."

Everyone turned their attention to Qi Luoran, the temporary foreign aid.

Qi Luoran felt the pressure, he bit his bullet and said: "Although I know a lot of piano pieces, it doesn't necessarily depend on piano pieces. If I encounter pieces like guzheng and pipa, I'm not familiar with them either."

He paused, and then said: "However, the arrangement of music usually has certain rules, such as prelude, transition, climax, and ending. If we encounter a song that we have never heard before, we can only try according to this rule. "

Yue Xingwen nodded, looked at the big screen and said: "The customs clearance rule is two sets of mistakes, that is to say, if there are eight sets of notes, the original order is ABCDEFGH, and one of the wrong sections will be evaluated as A."

Qi Luoran said: "Fortunately, there is a chance of being wrong. The prelude and the ending are generally not wrong. If you encounter similar melodies in the middle, if you arrange them in the wrong order, you can pass the level."

Yue Xingwen said bluntly: "Everyone get ready, it will start right away."

A 10-second countdown appeared on the screen. Everyone held their breath and listened carefully.

Soon, a string of musical notes slid across the screen, marked with "A", and a strange melody rang in his ears. Yue Xingwen looked dazed, as he hadn't heard it at all.

After this string of notes is over, there is the second string, marked as "B". The other students continued to look blank, but Qi Luoran's face flashed a hint of excitement. He looked at Xu Yishen, who nodded to him,

Soon, the third string, the fourth string...

Eight consecutive strings of notes slide across the screen, and the melody sounds chaotic. If it weren’t for the examination room of the Conservatory of Music, Yue Xingwen would not even be able to connect these melodies into a piece of music. Feeling that the style has changed?

However, looking at Qi Luoran and Xu Yishen's expressions, they seem to know this song?

After the music was played, Qi Luoran took the initiative to say: "Brother, let's talk about the order together and check it out?"

Xu Yi smiled deeply: "Okay."

Qi Luoran said: "D, C, H, G, A, B, E, F?"

Xu Yishen nodded: "It's the same as my judgment."

Qi Luoran's eyes lit up: "That's right, this is the song "Scarlatti" for the tenth grade of the piano exam. When we went to the exam together, I remember you played this piece."

Xu Yishen said with a smile: "It's been so long that I almost forgot it, but when I heard it just now, this familiar melody reminded me of the hard days when I was forced to practice the piano."

For Xu Yishen, learning the piano is a pain. He actually prefers the exciting sport of drag racing, and his personality is not suitable for sitting there quietly and playing the piano.But Qi Luoran is different, he likes music, so learning the piano is a kind of enjoyment for Qi Luoran.

Xu Yishen patted his junior brother on the shoulder, and said, "It seems that the melody level will not trouble you."

Qi Luoran smiled shyly and submitted the answers in order.After counting down for 1 minute, the melody of the second song started to play. To Qi Luoran's surprise, it was the melodious piano sound that rang in his ears this time.

Qin Lu and Qin Miao looked at each other, and the former said excitedly, "It seems to be "High Mountain and Flowing Water"!"

Qin Miao looked calm: "Well, listen carefully."

Qi Luoran could also tell that it was the timbre of the guzheng. His favorite instrument was the piano, followed by the violin. He didn't know much about folk music, but he had heard such famous pieces as "High Mountain and Flowing Water".Qi Luoran immediately concentrated and listened carefully to each note.

After a while, the 8th section of notes ended, Qin Lu carefully sorted out the memories in her mind, and said, "It should be ACBDEGFH."

Qin Lu looked at her teammates: "What do you think?"

Yue Xingwen rubbed his temples: "I'm not familiar with it, Qin Lu, if you have practiced this song, you can decide the answer."

Qin Lu was a little worried: "But I'm not sure if it's 100% correct..."

Qin Miao said bluntly: "If you are not sure, others will be even more uncertain. I remember that you practiced this song many times at the beginning. I believe your memory has not degraded to this extent."

Qin Lu nodded, stepped forward to enter the answer——

The second song passed the level smoothly, and the ordering was all correct!

Yue Xingwen smiled and said: "Great, it seems that we are lucky, and the two capitals are the songs that everyone has practiced."

Qi Luoran said: "This is too simple. The third question is probably an original song from the library. We haven't heard it before, have we?"

Xu Yishen coughed hastily: "Stop it, don't be crowed!"
