Chapter 106: Music Dream Monthly Pass)

——Double the last day of asking for monthly tickets.

………………………………………………………………………………

"Brons" used to be the manor of Natasha, the Violet Earl's Violet Eagle. The coachman was no worse than Philees "Berne" manor. The carriage drove smoothly and abnormally on the crowded streets of Alto, slowly heading to the Musicians Association of the Administrative Region, without letting Lucien feel the slightest bump in the carriage.

"Aalto has become so lively." Lucien felt the unprecedented noise of Alto through the half-open car window, and the crowds walking on both sides of the avenue were several times higher than usual at this time.

On the avenue, you can see many strange carriages, because the heralds on their carriages, Lucien is not familiar with it. "This is the heraldry of the Viscount Taran in the Holy Helz Empire, and this is the heraldry of the Baron White Maplelin in the Kingdom of Syrah... Haha, I can be considered a heraldry scholar."

Natasha's study has books dedicated to the noble heraldry, and these books account for a large part of the study. Therefore, although Lucien has not read them in full, through his strong memory and search comparison, he can basically recognize common heraldry.

After looking at these little exotic carriages, Lucien turned his attention to both sides of the avenue, where the bards perform, and street artists could see one every ten meters.

"Uncle Joel?" Lucien suddenly found that at the corner of the street, Joel was playing the "Ur" harp happily. Although he lacked two fingers on his left hand, it did not affect his use of such a simple instrument to play ordinary music.

Motionallying the coachman to park the carriage on the street, Lucien walked to Joel, looked at him with a smile, and listened quietly to him playing a passionate and romantic serenade.

The pedestrians around applauded and some took out bronze nar and threw it into the hat in front of Joel.

But they didn't recognize it. The quiet young man who was smiling and listening was the talented musician they had been talking about before.

After playing, Joel humorously said to Lucien: "It's very uncomfortable to stay at home for a long time."

John was favored by Sir Wayne, and Lucien often found various reasons to take care of them. Joel and Alisa could live a very good life even if they didn't have to work.

Lucien did not feel embarrassed at all: "I can see that Uncle Joel, you are very happy. It is a wonderful thing to be able to simply enjoy the joy brought by music." Joel had no attention to the copper Nal in his hat.

"It's right, the arrival of the Alto Music Festival rekindled my enthusiasm, so I took to the streets to play again, but no longer for life." Joel was even happier with Lucien's understanding. "I seemed to have returned to the past. Not long after I came to Alto, I was as full of musical dreams and pure persistence in music. After so many years, I finally found this beauty again." He pointed to the strange bards and street artists nearby.

They were completely different from their colleagues who had been in Alto for a long time. They were all trying hard to play their own music to pedestrians and show their singing voices. They hoped to get praise, affirmation, not money.

Lucien liked this simple beauty very much: "I felt happy when I saw them."

"So that's why I like the Alto Festival." Joel laughed, then picked up the seven-stringed "Ur" harp and played a soothing and melodious piece of music.

Lucien watched him immersed in the world of dream music without interruption. After standing quietly for a while, he took a walk nearby and admired the performances of bards and street artists. Occasionally, he threw out a few copper Nars to express his affirmation. "Home" at home to analyze magic for too long. Lucien misses such an energetic, lively and noisy scene.

Moreover, from their different flavors of music from different countries, Lucien is also absorbing the essence and perfecting a piece of music he created.

This piece of music is not a plagiarism, but a third movement of the extremely difficult song "Violin Sonata in G minor" adapted it into a piano piece, Lucien made considerable changes and treatments to the rhythm, strength and speed, so as to make a show of skills at his own concert.

Since there is no high-similar music on Earth, Lucien has adapted it slowly by himself, and can be regarded as a real adaptation of his own. In any case, in the performance that may be the first and last concert in his life, Lucien still hopes to have something of his own.

Walking slowly on the street, Lucien found that he really liked this vibrant city, the melodious music and the bustling scenes were all so beautiful: "I would have no church."

"Sir, are you here to listen to our concert? It's free!" Suddenly, a man in his twenties ran past him. He sincerely invited Lucien, his green eyes full of enthusiasm and expectation.

Lucien asked in confusion: "Concert?"

"Yes, sir, we rented a big house on the street for a concert, and invited everyone to listen for free!" The man with fluffy brown hair introduced with a very fast speech, "By the way, I am Piola, the band's number one violinist, are you willing to participate?"

Lucien was about to listen around before 2pm, so he smiled and nodded, "Where is it?"

Piola cheered: "Thirty listeners!"

Then he took Lucien into a street and entered the hall of a two-story building of a civilian.

There is a simple stage temporarily arranged in the center of the hall, with two violins, a viola, a cello and a harpsichord borrowed from somewhere. A long black hair, a long blue dress and plump adult girl was sitting on a stool to watch the instruments, and there were more than twenty people coming to listen to the concert around.

After Piola brought Lucien in, she smiled apologetically: "Sir, please wait for fifteen minutes, we will invite more friends. During this time, Grace will play the harpsichord for you."

Lucien probably understood what was going on. They should be bands from other countries. They took advantage of the opportunity of the Aalto Music Festival to come here to pursue their musical dreams. However, because they have no fame and don’t have enough money to rent the concert halls in Aalto. Even if they really rented them, there were not many audiences. Therefore, they could only use the form of free and simple concerts to let more people know about them, get affirmation, and become famous.

After Piola went out, the girl named Grace played "Dedicated to Sylvia" on the harpsichord, and the familiar and wonderful melody rang in Lucien's ears.

This piece is simple and easy to learn. Grace plays well, but Lucien frowned slightly: "The harpsichord cannot produce the pure feeling of flowing like a spring water. The melody like a song is a bit worse."

Due to its other advantages, the harpsichord was not immediately eliminated by the piano.

After four or five songs that Lucien was familiar with, Piola and two other men and one woman brought in more than twenty guests one after another.

Seeing that the guests had already made the small room crowded, Piola decided to start the concert. He walked onto the stage, picked up the violin, and said enthusiastically: "We are the band from the pearl of the sea, "Sturk", I am the first violinist Piola, this is the second violin Sharon, viola player Green, cellist Leslie, harpsichorist Grace, welcome everyone to our concert."

It can be seen that they often hold similar free and simple concerts in their original city, so they have a lot of experience and use a lively serenade to motivate everyone's emotions from the beginning.

Then there are some small works such as fantasia they created themselves.

Although Lucien does not have any real creative ability, he has been influenced by the Alto Musicians Association and has reached a certain level of piano playing, so he has a strong ability to identify music. He nodded slightly: "He is spiritual, has a few good melodies, and has done a good job of harmonies, but he is far from being outstanding." Their basic skills are good, and even in Alto, he can become qualified musicians. Unlike most bards who have developed the habit and cannot change it even if they want to.

The humble concert ended in less than an hour. Because it was free and because the Aalto people really loved music, Piola and the others received warm applause, which inspired them and were very excited, so they all stepped down and prepared to exchange their music with the audience.

Piola directly approached Lucien, a young man with extraordinary temperament: "Sir, what do you think of our fantasia in C minor?" He wanted to hear the gentleman's feelings.

"Not bad, but I think there are still some flaws in the development of music logic, the method of playing and the density of notes..." Lucien said seriously his opinion.

"Ah..." Piola didn't expect to get such professional advice. She stayed for more than ten seconds before she came back to her senses, so she started talking to Lucien eagerly.

The other audience members left quickly after talking about their hearing feelings. So Leslie, Grace and others gathered, watched the two of them in a little surprised manner and then joined one after another.

"Thank you, sir, we have received valuable advice." Grace saw Lucien ready to leave, and quickly expressed her gratitude to him.

Lucien smiled gently and said, "This is a ticket to the concert. I have to leave. I wish you a happy life in Alto."

"Thank you for your blessings, we will definitely be happy, because there are a few days left for the Aalto Festival. In addition to the concerts that can be listened to before midnight in each concert hall, the concerts in the Psalm Hall have also been announced today. The first night is a concert of Mass and hymns. Many famous musicians will deliver their religious works." Piola said this and seemed very excited. "The night on the fourth is the symphony of the respected Mr. Christopher, and the night on the fifth is the first concert of the genius musician Mr. Lucien Evans."

Lucien was a little confused: "Has it been arranged?"

"Of course, one represents the past and present, and the other represents the present and future, and the arrangement is really interesting." Sharon, the silver-haired violinist, said equally excited and excited. "We have no regrets if we can listen to a concert between Mr. Christopher and Mr. Evans with one ear. This time, we spent seven months to come to Aalto from the beach."

During the Alto Music Festival, the concert in the Psalm Hall will be performed simultaneously in the Municipal Square through a special divine array to ordinary people who have not received tickets.

"Seven months, by the sea..." Lucien felt aroused in his heart, and talked to them about the dangers of travel and his experiences. He did not leave with satisfaction until he was close to two o'clock.

Seeing Lucien's back disappearing from the gate, Grace sighed very much: "I didn't expect that if you just find a gentleman on the streets of Alto, you can have such a high level of musical literacy. You are worthy of being the music capital."

"Oh no, we are so rude that we didn't ask the gentleman's name." Piola patted his forehead in annoyance.

After arriving at the Musicians Association and saying hello to Elena, Lucien went to his exclusive lounge to prepare for afternoon practice with the band.

Not long after, a knock came, Lucien opened the door and unexpectedly saw Natasha and Camille.

"Lucion, please be careful recently. Don't go out at night. The 'Silver Horn' has shown signs of activity in many small towns on the edge of the Principality." Natasha closed the door and warned Lucien seriously. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to Piaotian Literature Registered Members to recommend this work.
