Chapter 389 The castrato!
It is said that the composer who adapted and composed "Heaven and Earth" spent three years among the Turan people before he unearthed this song.
It takes three years to sharpen a sword!
This song lived up to expectations and created a miracle. On the stage of "The King of Masked Singer", just having someone dare to sing is already half the battle!
Different from regular songs.
Songs with this special style actually require a very primitive wildness, and complicated singing techniques have to be abandoned in order to sing it beautifully!
The Frog Prince did it.
It is a kind of original wildness, and his singing seems to have been washed and purified!
Clear!
Pure!
Even Lin Zhibai felt a sacred feeling.
It is said that the Turan people make a pilgrimage across thousands of miles on foot every year. This is the theme of the song!
The audience doesn’t understand!
Without reading the translation, I can’t understand a word of the lyrics, but I seem to understand it!
What you understand is the artistic conception!
Everyone seems to have seen the blooming of iceberg snow lotus...
It seems as if I saw the first glow of the morning shining on the sky...
It seems as if I can see the door of heaven and earth being opened, and God spreading love to every corner of the world!
This is the true strength of King Zhou Ge!
Lin Zhibai sighed, enjoying the music and feeling the ancient artistic conception, he almost forgot that there was a competition behind him.
finally.
Zhou Han has finished singing.
The applause from the audience erupted like thunder!
Even the Tibetan Mastiff applauded vigorously!
The Frog Prince bowed and said: "This is the song I prepared to sing in the finals, but the Tibetan Mastiff is very strong, so I had to come up with this song..."
The most popular song!
But it’s only the semi-finals, who doesn’t have the unique skill to beat the bottom of the box?
There are also Tibetan Mastiffs!
The style of the song prepared by the Tibetan Mastiff is very different from that of the Frog Prince. He actually sang a very modern song that was as grand as a symphony!
The language is Wei!
ˆ It is also called "English".
Yes, the Tibetan Mastiff sang an English song!
The symphony-like arrangement structure instantly made the audience feel the overwhelming momentum!
"ah!"
“That’s awesome!”
“This round is a fight between gods!”
“The songs of both of them are amazing!”
“There are no songs in Mandarin!”
“It turns out that I can feel the beauty of the music even if I don’t understand the lyrics!”
“The Tibetan Mastiff is invincible!”
“The Frog Prince shocked me even more!”
“The styles of these two songs are completely at two extremes. One is ancient and sacred, and the other is modern and grand. It all depends on your taste!”
Carrot greens!
Each one has his or her own love!
It is almost impossible to compare these two songs intuitively. It just depends on the taste of the audience which one they prefer.
Because these two songs have achieved the ultimate in their respective genres!
Even the always conceited Explosive Durian was a little confused. For the first time, he discovered that the Tibetan Mastiff and the Frog Prince seemed no weaker than him!
Wait until I beat Variety Star King and enter the finals...
Whether you encounter a Tibetan Mastiff or a Frog Prince, you should be in a tough fight!
Depend on!
Qinzhou is so scary!
It was my first time to participate in a variety show in Qinzhou, and I met so many monster-level opponents!
What’s even more frightening is the number of votes in this round!
When host Huang Li counted the votes, his voice trembled a little—
Tibetan Mastiff: 20312345 votes!
The Frog Prince: 20420898 votes!
The votes of these two people actually exceeded 20 million votes!
There has never been a program in Qinzhou where an individual received more than 20 million votes!
Tibetan Mastiff and Frog Prince, set a new record!
However, even if it is a new record, there are winners and losers, although the gap between the Frog Prince and the Tibetan Mastiff is almost negligible compared to the total number of votes!
“Congratulations to the Frog Prince!”
The Frog Prince won, with a very thrilling number of votes!
The Tibetan Mastiff took off his mask without even waiting for the host's reminder, revealing a face that was very familiar to the audience.
It is Zhang Xiyang!
However, Zhang Xiyang, who lost the game, did not feel the slightest bit discouraged on his face. Instead, he smiled very happily!
Because he had a great time singing this round!
Using my own voice completely, I reached the limit!
Even if he reaches the finals, he can't sing a better song than the one he just sang. Like Frog Prince, this is his final trump card!
Besides, no one can say that Zhang Xiyang lost this time.
The votes of both of them exceeded 20 million. The difference is very small. The slightest factor can affect the result of the game!
“Zhang Xiyang!”
“It’s really him!”
“This round is really a pity!”
“Almost won!”
“Ah, I don’t even know how to vote!”
“This round is too difficult to judge!”
“Both of them are top performers!”
“I even feel like it’s the finals just now!”
Some of the audience were feeling regretful, some were feeling emotional, and they had so many thoughts at once!
The Frog Prince hugged the Tibetan Mastiff and whispered in each other's ears: "I'm sorry, Lao Zhang. It seems that I am the better one. When I win the championship, let's have a drink tonight."
Zhang Xiyang: “…”
But if you lose, you lose. Zhang Xiyang was very free and easy, smiling and delivering his elimination speech:
“There’s nothing much to say, just wish Mr. Variety Star. He is the singer I admire the most since I participated in the “King of Masked Singer” competition. The only pity is that I couldn’t compete with Mr. Variety Star once.”
Waiting area.
Lin Zhibai smiled and waved his hand, this old Zhang was canvassing votes for himself in disguise.
…
“Let us congratulate Frog Prince for advancing to the finals, and let us bid farewell to Teacher Zhang Xiyang. This stage will always remember the Tibetan Mastiff’s performance. Audience friends, the next more exciting moment is coming, the explosive durian versus the ever-changing star king!”
With Huang Li’s announcement.
Exploding Durian took to the stage.
He didn't say anything, just closed his eyes gently, as if he was brewing emotions. Zhang Xiyang had already walked to the front row and sat down next to the guests.
“Old Zhang!”
“You’re hiding quite deep in front of me!”
Qin Lian and Li Xiao joked about Zhang Xiyang. They had participated in "The Voice" together and were very close to each other.
While they were laughing and chatting with each other.
Suddenly a burst of music started playing.
Zhang Xiyang's expression suddenly changed, and he looked up at the exploding durian on the stage.
“It can’t be that song, right?”
Li Xiao's expression also changed instantly.
Qin Lian said in a strange voice: "This prelude is unmistakable, it is "Snow" composed by Martha for Lermontov!"
Martha!
The former No. 1 song dad in Yanzhou!
The reason why I say once is because Martha has passed away.
And Lermontov is also a top singer who has passed away. He is a legend in the Yanzhou singing circle and even the entire Blue Star.
It is rumored that this person is a castrato!
The so-called castrato refers to boys with loud and clear voices. Before entering puberty, they undergo cruel castration surgery to change their voices after development. Because of changes in **** hormones in the body, their vocal tracts will become narrower and sometimes It is conducive to the expansion of the vocal range, coupled with the huge lung capacity and vocal volume, giving them extraordinary voices that exceed ordinary people!
Centuries ago.
Caprato singers once dominated the major opera houses with their unparalleled voice quality and skills.
But nowadays, there are no real castrati anymore.
Modern people can only imitate the voice of a castrato through various methods.
After all, the era of castratoes in the past was decadent and backward. Even those castratoes did not do so voluntarily. They were castrated as a last resort due to various reasons.
Just like in ancient times.
Not many people volunteered to become eunuchs in the palace.
The rumor that Lermontov was a castrato has never been confirmed.
It was just because the other party's voice was so beautiful that some people made assumptions.
As for this song "Snow", as a Yan language song, after Lermontov, almost no one dares to challenge it!
so.
When the prelude of the song "Exploding Durian" appeared, the expressions of Zhang Xiyang and others changed like this.
Obviously Exploding Durian is not a castrato, but he dares to challenge this song "Snow". Is he sure he can imitate the voice of a castrato?
the answer is…
Exploding durians really works!
When a beautiful Yan language sounded, Zhang Xiyang seemed to hear Lermontov's three-point charm!
Especially the climax!
It was a bel canto coloratura, with the feeling of dolphin sound. It was extremely difficult, but Exploding Durian managed to sing it alive!
this moment!
All the audience were deeply shocked!
“This is "Snow"!"
“Lermontov’s swan song!”
“This is how a castrato sings!”
“What is a castrato?”
“To put it bluntly, it’s called a eunuch. You can check the information for details. Anyway, it’s incredible. A man’s voice can sound better than a woman’s!”
“Like Luo Yan, or Baibianxingjun’s song “Big Fish”?”
"It's different, you should be able to hear it. This kind of voice is even more special. If you are not a castrato, it is almost impossible to achieve this level!"
“I didn’t expect that exploding durian could be done!”
“This voice is so beautiful that it makes people speechless!”
This is bel canto coloratura!
Explosive Durian, a male singer, is actually challenging this coloratura soprano-like effect!
And the stage waiting area.
Lin Zhibai listened to this song, and his expression under the mask changed slightly.
He had defeated Exploding Durian twice before. Although he knew that it was not the opponent's real strength, it gave him some psychological advantages.
But at this moment.
When the other party sang the Yan language song "Snow", Lin Zhibai realized the true value of one of the so-called four kings of Qizhou!
But this is not a pure coloratura soprano.
Exploding Durian is a man after all. He only achieved a similar effect by imitating the form of a castrato—
Lin Zhibai certainly knew the legend of the castrato.
Of course I know what a great singer Lermontov is.
There are not many top singers in this world who can be famous all over the world. Those names that are well-known are known to everyone who does not pay attention to the music industry.
Besides, the song "Snow" is a masterpiece in the hearts of many people in Blue Star!
Although this is a Yan language song!
Even if Exploding Durian only sang 70% of the original song, it would still be enough to shock the audience. We cannot ask him to reach the height of the original song!
Fortunately.
In Lin Zhibai’s previous life, there was also a singer who could perform to Lermontov’s level.
His name is Vitas!
Chinese transliteration Vitas!
Perhaps only Vitas' song can compete with Lermontov.
Coincidentally, there were rumors in his previous life that Vitas was a castrato. Although he sounded black, from another perspective, it also proved that the other person's voice was incredible.
Lin Zhibai was very happy at this moment.
I’m glad that I prepared that song in advance, and I’m also glad that I have a versatile voice that can be imitated to the point where it’s real. Otherwise, I really wouldn’t be able to control the song I’m going to sing next...
Isn’t the Exploding Durian imitating Lermontov?
Then I will imitate Vitas!
Compared to imitation?
Lin Zhibai has never been afraid of anyone!
