Rebirth in America

Chapter 13 Music Professor

It is said that Mozart started composing music at the age of three. This example has always been mentioned, but who has actually seen someone who started composing music at the age of three? When Alex showed his unusual intelligence, everyone praised him as a child prodigy. At first, everyone will be surprised, but as time goes by, they will become accustomed to it.

However, Alex has always played the role very well, at least he didn't make people think he was a monster. If he pretends to be sophisticated and speaks in an old-fashioned way, he might really be arrested and studied. If he thinks about making money, stock trading, and starting a company all day long, he will jump up and down and instruct his relatives to do that. Maybe he was beaten to death by Bart and Angel before he could get it done. What else would it be like to meet such a strange child but not be regarded as possessed by an evil spirit?

The legend of reincarnation has been spread all over the world. Whether in the East or the West, there will always be such examples every once in a while. Once these suspected rebirths are revealed, a large number of people will be attracted to study them, and their every move will be observed with a magnifying glass.

Why do these people end up disappearing into obscurity? Logically speaking, they have already lived once, so there is no reason why they would still be doing so poorly. Why are the rich and powerful people in the world not like this?

This question has been on Alex's mind since he was reborn. He believes there could be several reasons. The first is that these people are all liars and are simply pretending. In the second type, these people did not succeed in seizing the body, and were eventually wiped out by the host's soul. As a result, both sides suffered losses, and finally became stupid and crazy. The third type is that these people are really reborn, but they don't know how to keep their reputation secret, and they are subdued or captured by relevant organizations in the dark for study.

No matter which way it is, Alex believes that it is best not to let the second person know the secret of being a reborn person. Once you reveal your identity as a reborn person, you will simply cause trouble for yourself. This is a completely harmful thing.

Maybe the guy in history who composed music and poems at the age of three and became prime minister at the age of twelve was actually his kind. It's just that he concealed it well so that the world mistakenly thought he was a child prodigy.

Bart's newly hired teacher is a university music professor with very rich teaching experience. The professor uses his weekends to work part-time, not only to kill time but also to earn extra money. When Bart came to him, he thought he was going to teach music to students aged sixteen or seventeen!

When the professor knows that his students will be children under five years old! He almost refused, but fortunately Paul knew him and came to explain to him in person, so he finally reluctantly came over to see him.

After he met Alex and got to know him a little bit, he found that it was exactly what Paul and the others said. Alex's ability to understand and learn is very strong. No matter what musical knowledge, as long as he teaches it once, Alex will learn it quickly.

"He is like a sponge, absorbing what I teach like water!" The music professor feels that he has found a very good seedling. As long as he spends time to cultivate it, he will definitely become a talent!

At the same time, the professor also noticed the differences between Alex and other musical geniuses in history.

A genius like Mozart has a strong understanding of the rhythm of music and can distinguish very subtle differences. You can quickly master how to play an instrument.

As for Alex, he is not very active at ordinary times, but he has a strong memory and can remember it completely after being taught it once. In addition, Alex will play refreshing tunes from time to time. Although they are only fragments, they are already memorable.

The music professor usually has to go to the university to teach, so he can only come to teach Alex on Saturdays and Sundays. Paul takes over from Monday to Friday. At this time, he usually reviews what he learned over the weekend and becomes familiar with playing various instruments.

Under regular teaching, Alex made rapid progress. Within half a year, he learned how to play accordion, piano, violin, drums, guitar and other musical instruments. Originally, given his urinary nature, he wasn't going to learn it honestly. But when he thought about how he was already attracting attention, if he did something evil again, he would be asking for trouble.

More importantly, he didn't know what side effects this spiritual doll would have. It was as if he had stumbled into a treasure house and was exploring it cautiously. So Alex studied honestly for a while and never used the incredible ability of the spirit doll again. Besides, if you want to copy skills, of course you have to find top people to copy them.

"It would be great if piano masters like Maxim and Richard were in front of me. I could stretch out my little hands and know everything." When Alex was practicing the piano, he was thinking randomly when he was tired.

At this time, he had gradually figured out that if you want to make a spiritual doll, you must be someone who has seen it with your own eyes. In this way, he can build a puppet model of the target object. After having the model, he can activate the puppet by touching the other party. He guessed that during the activation process, the current he felt was actually the other party's information energy being transmitted.

"Forget it, the puppet copying skill is too tricky. Before you figure it out, you should learn it honestly."

Putting the opportunistic spirit doll aside, Alex concentrated on learning from the professor. There is another question that he hasn't figured out yet, and that is whether the skills copied from the doll will exist permanently. If he turns the Paul doll into another doll, will the skills copied from Paul still exist. Before this issue was clarified, he thought it would be better to keep things as they were.

The music professor uses the Orff music teaching method, which is particularly suitable for gifted children like Alex.

Karl Orff is a world-famous contemporary German composer and music educator. He is basically a self-taught master. From a boy to a young man, he studied the works of the masters through self-study. After becoming a music master, he established a music and dance school. In the process of teaching, he compiled a music textbook.

Orff's purpose in writing this music textbook is: "Try to enable students to design their own music and accompany their actions!"

This set of teaching materials was so successful that it was eventually accepted by music educators around the world and adopted by major music schools. It can be said that this is a very scientific music teaching method. The best way to quickly turn beginners into talents.

Alex especially likes the accordion, piano, and violin, and he practices them the most and is the most proficient in them.

As for other instruments, he just practiced them casually. Although he had the memory experience of his previous life, it didn't help much in practicing the instruments. He also tried to use "analog memory" to learn music, but unfortunately failed. Unless he uses a spirit doll to replicate the skills of his music professor, there is no way he can learn so many instruments at once.

When using his ability, he can indeed reach the level of the simulated object, but once the ability state is released, he will return to his original state. This is like using a high jump to increase your height. When you jump up, you do increase your height, but once you fall to the ground, it is the same height as before. You may even have to bear the impact when you land because you jump too high.

In other words, if the ability is used too many times, even if the limit time is not exceeded, the body will be slightly damaged. Although this kind of damage is not serious and can be healed over time, it will eventually have a certain impact on the body. This is why he doesn't dare to use the mental puppet's copying skills at will. He is worried that excessive use of abilities will have side effects.

Alex could only find other ways, but surprisingly, the twelve sets of exercises he spent seven minutes doing every day helped even more.

This seven-minute exercise allows him to quickly master the body and develop the potential of the human body. One of the benefits is that it can improve his muscle precision.

At first, he didn't notice this. But he soon discovered that whenever he finished these twelve sets of movements and then practiced music, he would master the instrument much faster than he did.

In contrast, if he used the memory playing technique and then practiced, his improvement would be very slow.

"It doesn't make sense. I recall the details of the last performance in my mind every time before playing. I should improve faster! How could it be slower?" Puzzled, he deliberately did this Did some experiments to compare.

Whenever he gets tired from practicing, Alex will do twelve sets of movements as a break. Unexpectedly, after taking a break, his practice level would improve by leaps and bounds.

This seven-minute exercise method was known to adults as early as half a year ago, and it is no longer a secret in the Carpenter family. The Carpenters didn't think it was strange. They thought it was a gymnastics exercise that children learned somewhere.

"After resting for seven minutes, you will feel energetic again!" Alex was surprised to find that such high-intensity movements really rested the brain and released extra energy from the body.

"You can actually do this! Is this set of moves some kind of martial arts secret book?" Alex was speechless, but for him who has been persisting in doing these twelve sets of moves, they are indeed not considered high-intensity exercise. Most of them are just doing a set of gymnastics exercises.

Since Alex adopted the correct learning method, he has learned musical instruments much faster, but in the eyes of others, this is relatively normal. Because Alex has a problem, that is, he is not focused enough on things and likes to be lazy. There are too many things he wants to do, so he throws a hammer here and there a stick and tries everything.

One characteristic of lazy people is that they like shortcuts and spend a lot of time and energy looking for ways to save time and trouble.

"By the way, it seems that the perfect memory ability can be used like this!" Alex suddenly had an idea and thought of a way to increase the speed of practicing his musical instrument.

His method is to use his complete memory ability to remember his most perfect performance. He only needs to remember every detail of the moment, and then he can keep replaying that episode in his memory, as if he were practicing it over and over again in real time.

Alex's method has a certain theoretical basis. Human beings continue to perform repeated training. They are actually performing repeated muscle memory. They only need the muscles of the body to remember that action, and then they can perfectly perform it in the future. Repeat it. He has a complete memory that ordinary people do not have, so logically speaking, every time he recalls a complete memory, he is repeating the action at that time.

After using this method, Alex's proficiency in various musical instruments increased rapidly.

"Wow haha! Memorizing this thing completely is a great weapon for learning! With such a powerful plug-in, no matter what I learn, it won't be difficult for me!" Alex finally realized the benefits of his own abilities. Now It only takes him a few tenths of the time it takes others to quickly master the playing of an instrument proficiently.

Subconsciously, he believed that what he learned by using the spirit doll was too overbearing and not the correct way. He still didn't dare to use it unless necessary. Only "retrospective" and "simulated memory" derived from complete memory are the two abilities he uses most.

At the beginning, in the eyes of the professor, Alex seemed not very knowledgeable about practicing musical instruments. Since he used the new method of complete memory, his performance is simply jaw-dropping!

Since his first successful performance in the tavern, Alex has become a "celebrity" in the area! Soon, he was invited to perform in various public places, including schools, churches, parties, etc.

UU Reading www.uukanshu.net Most of the performances of this nature are for charity and can only earn a few dollars in income at most. Although this extra income is small, it can help reduce some of the burden on the family.

Sometimes, Bart's band would take Alex with them to perform in various areas. He was also called upon to attend concerts held by musicians. At such concerts, there would be some popular performances from time to time. The mainstream music of this era was blues for blacks and country music for whites.

He would sometimes go to Chicago to watch concerts with the adults, and of course, more often than not, Bart would go there on his behalf. Every time Bart comes back, he brings a lot of useful information, and a lot of music news comes from his mouth.

Another way to obtain information is the radio. Alex particularly likes this box that makes sounds and will hold it in his arms all day long, no matter where he goes.

"In this era where there is no computer or Internet, and even TV is a luxury product, what else can you do if you don't listen to the radio!" Alex thought with some resentment. He was still a little uncomfortable with this lack of information. In life, you can only listen to some news every day.

Sometimes when he feels bored, he will immerse himself in his spiritual world and read the video materials, books and news left over from his previous life. In the mental space, he can browse through the things in his past memories at will. The TV in the space plays the videos he watched in the past, the radio plays the music in his memory, and the bookshelf puts the books he has read.

With this kind of entertainment, he seems to have returned to his original homebody life. In addition to going out to perform, he just stays at home, sometimes in the real world, sometimes in the spiritual space.
