People (two in one)
"I heard 'Giant' on a friend's gramophone."
The troubadour Philly's eyes lit up, "It is a long music and painting scroll that expresses the integration of man and nature. It contains beautiful morning light, dew, flowers and pastoral poetry, and the whole text implies some irresistible force."
Violence is infiltrating and coming. It is hard to imagine that such a work that coincides with the secret of the 'Fanghui Poet' would be born under the pen of a composer from the Northland."
"This fully demonstrates that only artists can escape the limitations of their own world and explore the possibilities of the infinite spiritual realm." Martini, another troubadour, counted on his fingers, "Well, it has been out for more than a year.
, but this time it should be its premiere in the Southern Continent. Mr. Bruno, the traveling conductor, has worked hard to plan its performance. I wonder if he has the artistic ambition to achieve the 'Awakening Chant' during the 'Flower Ceremony'?"
"It depends on the level." Massenegu joined the discussion, "I think that if Mr. Fanning of Tioleon personally conducts the old symphony orchestra here, he will definitely be able to awaken the 'Fanghui Poet' with his achievements in the 'Giant' Symphony."
, but it should be noted that the scale and difficulty of this work are not small. If Mr. Bruno wants to win the crown, it depends on his own performance and the level of the orchestra."
"It makes sense. 'Giant' only premiered in the Southern Continent. Strictly speaking, it is no longer a new work." The people around him nodded.
This has been the rule for hundreds of years. The success rate of the premiere of a new work is greater than that of revisiting a classic. The performance of old works will put forward more stringent requirements on the level of musicians - if the "Awakening Chant" can be realized simply, then the masters
His works are so vast that if you just pull up a second- or third-tier orchestra and perform a symphony by the great Gilles, you can easily win the title first.
"So what orchestra are you talking about? Is it the most powerful resident orchestra, the United Principality Festival Orchestra?" People around him joined in the discussion in twos and threes.
"I'm afraid not. As far as I know, the position that Mr. Bruno obtained during his travel expenses was the permanent conductor of the Akobi Symphony Orchestra. The artists should have come from the city-state of Akobi for a festival tour here."
"It's the third-ranked professional band in the South. It's also a famous band. I've heard it live and the level is pretty good."
"It depends on the comparison. The United Principality Festival Orchestra is ranked first, but it is only seventh in the world. Our own country is ranked third, and its ranking is even further."
"Well, after all, the symphony is not as rich as the Western Continent," someone sighed.
"Actually, the orchestra of the Eleanor State Opera House, which is second in our country, is of very high standard and has hundreds of years of heritage, but it has never been able to make it into the top ten. Even the newly established Old Symphony Orchestra has become the eleventh. This
The ranking is somewhat unfair." Some people were angry.
"The problem is that the genre is too narrow, and the opera house tends to 'make stars' from the traditional culture. As the saying goes, they are good at acting but not good at writing. Famous singers have created one after another, but few of them are good at it.
"Master Composer" has some rational analysis.
"Isn't it Mr. Dominic? He was the poet laureate of the 'Awakening Song' one year at the Opera House."
"But when someone conferred the title of god as an opera master, it was also at the Janus Harvest Art Festival later."
“When will the Opera House premiere ‘Resurrection’? Aren’t they very good singers?”
"What are you thinking about? The Northern Continent has only been around for twenty days. Mr. Capron erected the monument so high that even Janus's city of San Perto didn't dare to recreate it. Moreover, it is said that the essence of this piece of music is
Although it is a chorus, the difficulty is still the instrumental part. The beginning is difficult with 'Fanning's standard persuasion style', which a troupe used to performing in operas simply cannot handle. It will be good if we can perform 'Giant' well first."
"It's better to listen to the record first and be realistic. Has any of you pre-ordered 'Resurrection' arrived?..."
More and more people joined the discussion in the large open-air courtyard on the second floor of the hotel.
Before a concert with a good repertoire begins, music fans will always talk about and predict the gimmicks, and start a lot of thinking. This is a very familiar scene no matter in the past or present.
Where there is music, there are music lovers.
Fan Ning felt that he was quite enjoying the slight noise surrounding his ears. He carried his guitar, drank a cold drink, and stood by the bleachers overlooking the street scene. The breeze and flower petals fluttered his clothes, and the shadows danced gently on the hot sunlight on the ground.
"Teacher, will you write symphonies in the future?" An walked to Fan Ning's side.
"Why do you ask that?" Fan Ning glanced at her.
"Because you said you never wrote it." She leaned on the railing next to her and looked down, with one calf slightly raised behind her canvas shoes. "They were discussing Mr. Fanning's 'Giant' and 'Resurrection'.
'The discussion was very lively, which shows that symphony is a great genre that can prove your strength, and I have no doubt that you also have this strength."
Hearing this, Fan Ning shook his head with a half-smile: "If I write a symphony, which one will be more popular than his 'Giant' or 'Resurrection'?"
"You." An replied without hesitation.
"Hahaha." Fan Ning laughed louder and continued to overlook the scenery.
"Teacher, have you ever heard of Fox Lily Field?" she asked again.
"It's hard not to know it." Fan Ning said "hmm".
For foreigners who have truly understood the customs and customs of Tiya City from books, the most impressive and curious place is probably the Holy Land Fox Lily Field. It is said that those fox lilies have strange flower shapes, gorgeous and elegant temperament, and the fragrance penetrates deep into the heart.
Like a sea of ​​fire burning on the southern plains.
"After the competition is over, I will accompany you for a walk. There will definitely bring you very new inspirations."
The girl said this and bowed slightly to Fan Ning: "I have worked hard these days practicing singing. The Eleanor State Opera House will start the selection in the afternoon. I need to take a bath, change clothes and put on makeup before leaving.
I need to practice my voice, so I have to excuse myself now."
Fan Ning already knew about the arrangement and waved her hand to prepare on her own.
"Ah, I forgot to ask a question." An turned around and then back again.
"What?"
"Does the five "Lückert's Songs" have a singing order specified by you?"
Fan Ning pondered for a moment and shook his head:
"No, it's up to you."
"I want a word of encouragement to increase my confidence."
"As long as there are no big mistakes, the difficulty of this link is a bit bullying with "Lückert's Song"."
"Okay! Thank you teacher."
The other person's leaving figure and steps were light and cheerful.
After getting along with each other in the past few days, many of Fan Ning's worries were dispelled. Based on some past experiences, the two most troublesome follow-up situations that required breaking off the relationship did not occur: this Miss Nightingale respects people and is also self-respecting, and her words and deeds
His behavior still maintains etiquette and propriety, and he has not become angry or depressed. He still exudes frank, cheerful and confident energy, and continues to work hard towards his dream of becoming a famous singer.
After she stated that she would not be accompanied during the "selection" session, she just happily expressed that she hoped she would consider going to watch if she could make it to the finals.
In fact, the famous singer competition started as early as early July, from the "general selection" of various archipelagos and city-states, to the "reselection" of Tia city-state, to the finals, which included six rounds.
The invitation letter Miss Nightingale is holding is a green card. The "selection" she participated in today is independent of the six rounds. If we look at the progress, it is equivalent to the second-to-last performance and is still one step away from the finals.
So he is not interested in watching it for the time being.
After returning to his hotel room, he took a shower and took a nap.
On another whim, five art songs with piano accompaniment were annotated with symphonic orchestration.
This kind of writing practice has resulted in two versions of "Lückert's Song". The former is convenient and refreshing, with a prominent theme, while the latter has a more three-dimensional atmosphere and richer expressiveness.
In the afternoon, he wandered aimlessly for a while in the bustling streets. The huge and lively city-state of Tia was like a fragrant maze under the sun. Less than a month ago, he was still in Tiolain, which was so far away, and he often sat there.
On the wooden floor of the balcony of the living room of the Turner Art Hall, I was thinking about some unremarkable life issues. Every time I emphasized or pondered these contrasts in my mind, I felt like I was dreaming.
At the market, Luna was holding a small black umbrella as always, while Fan Ning was holding a cup of "egg coffee" cold drink that she had never tasted before. In front of her eyes, there was a lot of traffic, people coming and going, a pair of hot-bodied young girls and
He passed by and praised the foreigner's beauty in a heartfelt tone. Fan Ning turned back and thanked with a smile, while gently sniffing the residual ocean scent perfume in the hot air.
The cold drink in your hand looks like a layer of black coffee covered with brown cream. It is a milk foam substitute whipped by locals using raw eggs, brown sugar and condensed milk. It tastes silky and unique, full of aroma and dense egg yolk.
Collision and fusion with the bitter coffee, the layers are rich and interesting, and there is no fishy feeling at all.
Fan Ning's thoughts diverged from the cold drink and briefly passed through some figures in distant countries, but soon he traveled directly to more than forty years ago in one breath.
Vincent and Professor Anton were both still children at that time, and Vienne flew across the sea with a "gel membrane" with a D minor chord written on it, and a few years later he sang a song called "
The work "Prelude" completed the "Awakening Chant". Fan Ning tried to think about what might happen in the meantime, but failed. The midsummer here was very hot, and the pedestrians wore brightly colored clothes, which was far from the gray old time and space.
It's so far away that no connection can be discerned.
Under various parasols, on low roof ridges, on vaulted or flat rooftops, and on the outer edge of store blinds... Fan Ning saw the "traditional art" of the South as always: staring at him with his eyes wide open.
Toads with eyes, mushrooms with weird shapes and colors, insects placed on the barbecue grill that people are completely afraid to eat... But this time he stayed at one of the stalls for a little longer——
"Skull drilling surgery"
Luna also met her when she took her to buy a piano at the market in Port Baqueriso.
Fan Ning looked at the nails, hammers, drills and knives in the toolbox, frowning and thinking. He felt that the thing in front of him was related to something, but he couldn't grasp it for a while.
The plump woman in colorful clothes stopped when she saw a customer, and turned over the plaque hanging on the rope, revealing some "paid content" behind it. However, she did not open her mouth to make an attentive introduction like other stall owners, but kept smacking her lips.
With the cigar in his mouth and his eyes looking around, he quickly returned the plaque to its original position.
To be continued...
