Chapter 2337 Variations of the Magic Flute (Part 1)

"Please take a seat."

Albus Dumbledore pointed to a row of chairs lined up side by side and said to Pomona, who was still reading.

"What do you want from me, principal?" she asked very nervously.

"Oh, didn't Filius tell you?" Albus asked in surprise.

She shook her head.

"This is related to a little hobby of mine." Dumbledore sat down in a seat and said to the hanging curtain, "You can start."

As soon as his words fell, the sky-blue curtain floated up on its own, and then she saw Ravenclaw Dean Felicity in a tuxedo. He bowed to the two of them, and then waved it like a baton.

The magic wand, and then the musical instruments floated up on their own.

"This is the music Filius prepared for Halloween, and he wanted me to appreciate it." Albus explained.

"What?" she asked in confusion.

"What don't you understand?" said Albus.

"Why, I'm just a student?" Pomona asked again in confusion.

"I heard that Mr. Black plans to take advantage of the opportunity to go to Hogsmeade on Saturday to fly to the Leaky Cauldron in London via the Floo Network, and then go to the Beatles concert live. Do you know about this?"

Pomona was motionless as if petrified.

"Sit down, I'm not asking you to snitch." Albus said with a smile, "I just want to find someone to accompany me."

Pomona immediately sat down next to Albus. In fact, Sirius had indeed invited her to go to the Beatles concert before. Of course, it was not just the two of them, but also someone who was also curious about Muggle rock.

James Potter.

"Relax, you are enjoying yourself." Albus said with a relaxed smile.

She still felt very nervous.

"I have a friend." Albus said softly, "He is not a good listener. Sometimes, like most people, he treats music as a background sound."

"Isn't it?" Pomona asked.

"Tell me what you think?"

"If you want to dance, there must be music."

Albus thought for a moment and said, "You mean something like a decoration?"

"What?"

"There is someone you need to know about. His name is Beethoven. He is a very famous musician. I think many wizards know him." Albus said, "It was he who turned music used for entertainment into a

It is a work of art that requires seriousness, seriousness, and quietness to appreciate, which means that you must listen carefully to understand the mystery."

"Ahem".

She glanced at Filius, who was glaring at them.

"Listen carefully and tell me what you heard later." Albus said with a smile and stopped explaining, leaving Pomona sitting beside him stiffly.

At this time, the sound of the flute spread slowly like flowing water.

The piece DuBoer played was Ave Maria. Although Georgiana asked him to give some "surprises", he did not do so. According to the priests nearby, this gentleman is the chief cellist of the Berlin Hofchurch and once played for Frederick.

He performed for Emperor Frederick the Great, collaborated with Beethoven and Mozart, and was the music teacher of King Friedrich Wilhelm II of Prussia.

Since the 17th century, people have discovered that music requires the mixing of treble, bass and middle tones to form harmony, and the tune will sound beautiful. Bach's equal temperament is very clever, with several parts hidden in a melody, so that

Playing solo without accompaniment doesn't feel incomplete.

Today the master performed a solo in the church, mainly because he wanted to hear what Georgiana said about the sound of being kissed by an angel.

In addition to his superb sculpture skills, Michelangelo also paid attention to the characters behind each story. There is no scene of the Holy Family quarreling in the Bible, but what is strange about children quarreling with their mothers, and some children even left home?

Run away.

Although Maria's face in "Pieta" is still that of a girl, and the time seems to be frozen in time when she gave birth to him, the Son has grown up, from a baby sitting on her lap and having a tantrum with her to being taller than she is.

, but the son in her arms has lost his life, like a cold stone.

Rather than giving life to the stone, it is better to say that he liberated the soul trapped in the stone.

In the Sistine ceiling painting, both Adam and the Son who executes the Doomsday Judgment are in their prime. There is no aging that people cannot bear to look at, nor the fragility of childishness. It is a pity that the life of a living person cannot be like a sculpture.

Staying at that moment like a painting, like the puzzle of the Sphinx, moving from morning to evening, from dawn to twilight.

The planets rotate in circles over and over again, and people will not be resurrected after death. The superposition of time on people will always bring about some changes, some of which we like to see, and some of which we do not want to see, such as the wrinkles on the faces of beautiful women.

, or the muscles on the hero's body that are gradually relaxing.

This church holds both the baptism of new students and the funerals of the elderly. It has hardly changed since the day it was built. The son, father, and grandfather saw almost the same scene, and they were carved from the same mold.

Be it appearance or personality.

Is this considered the continuation of life?

When the father dies, the son continues the trajectory of his life.

Although Baroque originated from Mannerism, it brought impact, like a meteorite falling from the sky, bringing impact and change to this unchanging and conventional world.

When Bach's music full of baroque style sounded in this Gothic church, "change" had quietly happened. She didn't know whether it was a good thing or a bad thing. In the past, Venetians were always confused when they played baroque music in the church.

The Lord taught.

However, the celestial bodies are also playing a silent music. Someone heard this silent song, and then Kepler's laws and the law of universal gravitation derived by Newton were derived.

She heard that Beethoven wrote a variation on the Magic Flute called "The Man Who Knows Love", and hoped that Mr. DuBoer could play it for her after leaving the church.

Although The Magic Flute also performs the theme of light triumphing over darkness, it tells the story of ancient Egypt. This kind of "pagan" theme should not be performed here.

As long as you don't think about stealing, even if Michelangelo's sculpture is left there, no one will touch it. When people understand what sin is, they will know what they shouldn't do. This is more advanced than any other.

The anti-theft measures are all very useful.

On the contrary, the more advanced the anti-theft measures are, the more eager people are to try and challenge the "impossible".

Regrettably, the famous painting in the church was eventually stolen. The priests made a copy based on the photo and put it on the wall, and wrote a sign about what happened to it and set it aside.

This is a silent condemnation. Of course, the person who steals the painting can also turn a deaf ear and enjoy the huge wealth gained after selling the stolen famous painting. The person who buys the painting can also pretend that he knows nothing and keep it to himself.

in his private collection.

Rather than proving the existence of God, what humans need to solve more urgently is the problem that after the collapse of past ethics, "good will be rewarded with good and evil will be rewarded with evil" no longer works. People no longer fear going to hell after death, because this world

There is no heaven or hell. People no longer fear eternal punishment after death, and they are unscrupulous while alive.

Even though DuBoer's music cannot bring her pleasure, she is still willing to listen to it. What's wrong with her?

Is it because he is a celebrity? If she doesn't understand, it will make her look incompetent?

Treatment is not always comfortable for the body. Correction and surgery will cause pain, but what correction does she need?

She couldn't understand, but fortunately DuBoer was going on a tour, and the first stop was Paris, France, and he happened to be traveling with her.

She might figure it out on the way.
