[Japanese Edition] Love at First Kiss] Female Supporting Struggle

"I'm going to practice." Reiko Matsumoto said.

"Then, this week." Irie Naoki shouted from behind.

"Not this week," Matsumoto Reiko said lightly, "I have to at least tell the teacher at the private school."

"Then next week!"

"Then what if you don't teach well." Matsumoto Reiko had already run downstairs, she jumped down the last two steps briskly, turned to look at Irie Naoki, her hands were behind her back, her face was full of joy smile.

"Then," Naoki Irie thought for a while, and then laughed, "I'll go to private school with you."

When Irie Naoki returned to the teaching building, his steps were brisk.

"You confessed to Reiko." Junichi Watanabe asked nervously after him.

Irie Naoki was silent for a while, sat down, opened the book casually, "No."

But Junichi Watanabe didn't believe it, he sat down on the seat in front of him.

"I've known Reiko since elementary school."

Naoki Irie paused when he was flipping through the book. Habitually, he wanted to perfunctory the past as usual, but now he doesn't want to do this anymore, "Why, you mean that because of this reason, Reiko should be with you together?"

Junichi Watanabe was taken aback by Irie Naoki's words,

In his impression, Irie Naoki is not a person who can speak loudly.He always nodded casually, as if he was not interested in anything.But now it seems to be aggressive, such a change makes Watanabe Junichi flinch, "Of course not," but he quickly emphasized, "Reiko will not consider falling in love in high school." Watanabe Junichi Said confidently.

"Really, then we can take a look." Irie Naoki nodded, not paying attention to Watanabe Junichi's assertion at all.

————————————————————————————————————————

Electronic sounds with a strong sense of rhythm sounded in the new gymnastics gymnasium of Shengdunan Academy.

This is Michael Jackson's Billie Jeans. Although it is an "old song" in 1983, it is indeed a classic. Even in 20XX before Reiko Matsumoto's rebirth, this song was occasionally heard.

This is also the ball exercise music that Reiko Matsumoto chose this season.

The new gymnastics, like the floor exercise in gymnastics, needs to be accompanied by music to complete the movements.But not any music is acceptable, only music that complies with the rules of the competition can be used.

The first is the duration.The duration of the individual events of the new gymnastics ranges from one minute and 15 seconds to one and a half minutes, so the music has been rearranged and compressed to keep only the complete structure. There are only four bars left; secondly, the rules require that the music used in the competition must not have vocals, so the vocal part of the song was also deleted.

Following the drumbeat of the first bar, Reiko Matsumoto's body made a wavy movement, and then she swung her hips left and right, raised her right arm over her head, and let the ball roll on the inside of her right arm to the beat of the music with her backhand.

Billiejeans is indeed Michael Jackson's classic song. The music is compact and has a strong sense of power. When the first drumbeat came out, it has already attracted the attention of other players in the training hall. They stopped their practice and watched To Reiko Matsumoto.

This wasn't the first time they watched Reiko Matsumoto practice, but were still attracted to her.

Reiko Matsumoto's skills are of course outstanding, but what is even more unforgettable is her outstanding expressiveness.

Even if they are all girls, Matsumoto Reiko is so sexy that people can't take their eyes off.

She is obviously a college student, but she already has the charm of a mature woman, and she has the charm of a European and American woman in her gestures. Considering that she is still a top student, this contrast is unbelievable.

Yuka Yamada looked at it, and couldn't help but rejoice in her heart, this time she was really lucky, and she was injured by Reiko Matsumoto, otherwise she really wouldn't be able to get the right to participate in the World Championships.

When the music ended, Reiko Matsumoto took a breath and walked off the gymnastics mat.

There are only two gymnastics mats. When performing a set of exercises, one person must immediately make room for others to use after training.

Reiko Matsumoto leaned over slightly, picked up a towel from the bench, and wiped off the sweat on her body.She doesn't like getting wet on her body, and she can't say otherwise when exercising, but as long as she stops, she must wipe off the sweat on her body.

"Lizi."

Matsumoto Reiko was drinking a sports drink when she heard Yamada Yuka calling her from behind, turned her head and found Noda Momoko and several other teammates.

Reiko Matsumoto is getting along well with her teammates now.

The suspicion caused by her injury before among her teammates has been successfully resolved, and she is not a person who likes to hide her secrets. She is willing to answer questions about anything in training and share her own experience.So during this period of time, the atmosphere in the new gymnastics department is good, and the teammates get along very well.

Because teammates often come to ask questions after training, Reiko Matsumoto set a rule of up to 10 minutes each time.

"How did you do it?" Yamada Yuka asked, perhaps also aware that her question was endless, and added, "It's your cooperation with the music."

She is going to participate in the World Championships this year, and she doesn't want to miss any place where she can improve herself.

"Cooperate," Reiko Matsumoto thought for a while while holding the water glass, "You must understand music first."

Yamada Yuka frowned, feeling that the answer was too abstract, "I've read a lot of articles about music introduction. For example, I've read my stick exercises, ballets, and the original works of Cervantes. But it doesn’t feel like it’s working.”

Yamada Yuka used the soundtrack of the ballet "Don Quixote" for the stick exercise.Knowing that her expressiveness is a big problem, in order to better understand music, Yuka Yamada spent a lot of time researching music and authors, but it didn’t work. Her expressiveness is still a big problem.

"No, I'm not talking about understanding." Reiko Matsumoto changed her body weight, and she realized that this question is really not easy to explain, and their ideas are not on the same channel, "Let me ask you this way, what do you think of music? What is the core of

"Uh" Yuka Yamada was stunned for a moment, feeling that the question was a bit broad, and after thinking about it, she said uncertainly, "Is it emotion, or thought?"

Reiko Matsumoto didn't know what to say. She didn't know when to start. When talking about the analysis of something, the first thing to talk about is emotion.

She remembered a segment in "The Big Bang Theory":

Petunia asks Sheldon's mother why her pies are delicious,

Sheldon's mom said it was because she put something in the pie.

Penny said, is it love for Sheldon?

Sheldon's mother said, no, it was lard.

That's it, for a layman, it is easy to explain and analyze music with abstract things such as emotion and thought, but in fact,

"It's the rhythm!" Matsumoto Reiko sighed, imitating Sheldon's mother's tone and said earnestly.

"It's that 44 shots, 42 shots?"

"That's the beat," Matsumoto Reiko sighed, "the beat is fixed, like we often say one two three, two two three; or one two three four, two two three four, these are the beats ; and the rhythm is the change of length and strength based on the beat, just like, the equivalent of one, two, three can become 1-23, or 12-3."

Matsumoto Reiko said while playing different rhythm patterns with her hands.

"Forget it, let me start from the beginning."

Seeing that Yamada Yuka still didn't understand, and more teammates surrounded her, Matsumoto Reiko simply explained from the beginning.

In fact, it’s no wonder that these team members don’t understand that they are all born in the 70s. Although Japan’s economy has taken off, music education is not so cheap that everyone can accept it.

The financial conditions of the members of the new gymnastics team are also good, but they are not so rich that everyone can receive professional music education since childhood.

But Matsumoto Reiko is different.

Before her rebirth, Matsumoto Reiko lived in Shanghai and had a wealth of music resources.After rebirth, her family conditions are also very good, and her teachers are all professors at Toho Gakuen University.

This way of cultivating from an early age, the quality of music will naturally be different.

"Music has three major elements, melody, rhythm, and chords. Melody is the most intuitive. Basically, as long as you are not tone-deaf, you can hear it, just like we hum a song,

いまはこんなにかなしくて,

なみだもかれはてて. . . "

(I'm so heartbroken now that my tears have already dried up)

Reiko Matsumoto sang "Time" by Miyuki Nakajima casually.

"This is the melody. Even people who have never learned music can hum along."

"In the new gymnastics, of course, the dance is the same. You can't express the melody. Do you follow the different pitches to do the movements?" Reiko Matsumoto joked casually, "So, the melody of the music It's none of your business."

"The second element is rhythm," Matsumoto said, playing different rhythm patterns with her mouth.

If this is professional, it is Beatbox.

Such a fresh way of expression made the surrounding teammates booed in surprise.

Before rebirth, Bbox has become a trend, and it often appears on some fashionable variety shows, but in fact, the theory of Bbox is not complicated, it just uses the mouth to express different rhythm patterns.

"Did you hear it?

"It feels very exciting, but each one has a different feeling."

"This is the problem of rhythm." Different rhythms can bring different feelings to people.

"What about the chords?"

"Chords are something deeper. We don't specialize in music, so don't worry about it."

"So, for the three major elements of music, we just need to grasp the rhythm when performing. Why do you say that a person's dance is like doing gymnastics," Matsumoto Reiko glanced at Yuka Yamada apologetically.

Yamada Yuka shook her head and said it didn't matter,

"In fact, the fundamental problem is that you have not grasped the rhythm. What is radio gymnastics, it is one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, two, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight. Even the most basic rhythm, you have not fully performed. The rhythm is still There are strengths and weaknesses, but you don't, you just divide the equivalent movements into pieces."

"For example, a three-time arm retraction, if you only divide the motion into three equivalent parts, that's it," Matsumoto Reiko said, reluctantly expressing a blunt arm retraction, "but if you If you can notice the strong and weak relationships in it, then you can make it.”

Matsumoto Reiko said and made the same movement again. Although she retracted her arms, it seemed very comfortable.

"The second time is better, there is a kind of..." Yamada Yuka thought for a while, and found a word, "the feeling of fluidity."

"Well, you can also say that. In fact, I just pay attention to the relationship between strength and weakness. When the arms are retracted, the first movement is a little stronger, and there is a force, and when it reaches the shoulders, it is a little softer. This is a strong and weak contrast between action and movement.

strong-weak-weak,

weak-weak-strong,

If you are more complicated, you can also become strong-weak-weak, or weak-strong-weak, and so on. "

Reiko Matsumoto followed different rhythms and showed several different movements easily

These are all wave movements of the arm, but the style of expression is different.Just like when we speak, if you put the stress in different positions, the elements it emphasizes are different.If you use a word that is shorter or longer, it will express a different feeling.

For us, the core of understanding music is to grasp the rhythm. After hearing a piece of music, we must first analyze its beat and rhythm, know the relationship between strength and weakness, and then consciously combine them with our own actions. "

Reiko Matsumoto glanced at the time, it was almost 15 minutes, "Of course these are very superficial things, and you will encounter many problems in the actual practice, let's talk about it next time."

The author has something to say:

I wrote it in a hurry, I will change it tomorrow
