musicians of old

Chapter 380 The second movement The flowers in the field tell me (3): Former residence (two in one)

"Miss Nightingale, it will take some time to prepare for the awarding ceremony. I wonder if we can go up and disturb Mr. Scheler's nap?"

He Meng finally revealed his bigger and more important purpose.

Walter will soon complete the promotion of "Forged Lion", which can be regarded as the "opening harvest" of the Southern Continent's inspection trip, but he bears the imprint of the church musicians of the Western Continent to some extent. Scheler, who has no competition and has the potential of "New Moon", is undoubtedly the group of existences with more top-level friendship value.

"I know that Mr. Scheler is very busy, and there is Master Luckert 'queuing' in front." He Meng said in a low voice, politely, "But today his students won the laurels, and the work that opened the midsummer is also from him. Hehe... the congratulations and ceremony viewing cannot be regarded as a personal appointment of any group, we are sure that all the people in the southern country want to say hello to him."

"Indeed." Queen Eleanor smiled kindly and gracefully. "Little girl, this is a good thing. Please lead us up. I think Mr. Scheler will be very happy. It is hard for people to have any reason to refuse."

"Everyone wait a moment." Ann was uncertain, but she thought the teacher's creation or rest was more important. At this moment, she stood up and bowed slowly, and her figure disappeared at the dividing line between the pitched hillside and the sky.

After 1 minute, the girl appeared in everyone's sight again with a smile. She has considerable vocal talent, her voice is pure and soft, and it penetrates far in the summer wind:

"The teacher will come to watch the ceremony after everyone's preparations are finished, but for now, Mr. He Meng may have to wait a little longer..."

Hearing that He Meng was about to speak again, the girl continued:
"There are so many distinguished guests today, it is indeed difficult to have any reason not to meet each other, but there is one exception, everyone can understand—"

"Mr. Walter is conducting an incomplete orchestral work today. "The Poem of Awakening" is only the first part. The teacher is using the inspiration that Huahai told him to create the second movement. I will come out from under the parasol to get some air, so I apologize to everyone in advance."

After explaining concisely, An saluted the thousands of people in the valley below again, and then turned around and got into the parasol ten meters away.

More citizens and troubadours are still coming here from all over the mountains and plains, including quite a few musicians who have tried to achieve the "Wake Up Song" this year or in previous years but failed to achieve it.

But for a while, only the sound of hot wind remained in the air.

"Well, friend, let me ask." A troubadour in the crowd who had obtained the emblem of blessing asked his friend next to him in a low voice, "The meaning of 'incomplete work' in this little girl's mouth is that we usually Is that what you think it is?"

"You are a professional, why are you still asking me?" The friend fanned the wind with the sun hat in his hand, "Since this little girl has said everything and is still writing the second movement, it must be an unfinished work! Orchestra? Symphony ? Doesn’t a symphony have four movements…”

"Incomplete works? Unfinished works?"

"The Awakening Poem is only the first part?"

"This reason for not seeing visitors is indeed impeccable, but, but..."

Many troubadours felt their knees begin to give way.

"Wait, wait, my brain can't keep up, so this year's "Awakening Song", a student of Mr. Scheler directed a first-line orchestra and wrote a hastily written song in the first rehearsal. and realized it after only playing the introduction part?..." A composer who has been working hard for five years can no longer break sentences when expressing emotions.

"You still missed a detail." The voice of a music critic next to him floated from the ear, "Just now when my reporter friend was interviewing the musicians on the spot, they found that the rehearsal score they used was another Scheler's score. The student copied it, and this little girl is a 'lost person'."

"...?"

"The kind of 'lost person' who is not allowed to enter the first floor of the symphony hall and thinks it will affect the attention of the 'Fanghui Poet'?"

Gentiles in the crowd began to attack this prejudice of the Southern Church:

"I've said it a long time ago, why were you unable to wake up because of some 'discolored person'? Your own level is poor! What reason are you looking for!?"

And more musicians began to collapse and cover their heads:
"I decided not to pay attention to the whole story of this matter anymore. It is doubtful that the elements of life are already overflowing, why are you still adding to it?"

"Damn it, there's at least a hundred Walters between me and Scheler..."

"Okay, this Scheler, okay!" He Meng became more and more overjoyed, "Such an astonishing symphonic poem is actually only the first part of a certain symphony or orchestral divertimento. Possessing extremely profound mysteries, it must be a masterpiece capable of rivaling the 'Resurrection' symphony!"

"The recording industry in the Southern Continent has limited conditions, but this time we must do our best to release a record of unprecedented orchestral works. It is a good idea to break out of the limitations of Tiolein to hedge against the influence of the 'Resurrection' symphony... …The investors of Hoffman Records have been a little carried away in recent years. They always feel that if they can get a lot of money and control the lifeline of "art industrialization", they can do everything according to their own ideas. Let them know who is the core leader of the discussion group..."

"Recently, you have helped me sort out the materials I have learned from the Southern Continent." He instructed the liaison officer next to him, Anna, "A week later, in late August, I will personally report to the leader at the United Dream Conference."

"Okay, sir." Anna agreed immediately.

He Meng tilted his head slightly, glanced at the people and troubadours who were looking at the top of the slope with almost pilgrimage eyes, and began to think deeply about the next acquaintance plan in his eyes.

Since things can reach this level of surprise, Scheler's value to himself may not be limited to the "potential artist".

The leader once reminded that the midsummer in the southern country is "the season of deep affection", and it is also the "season of hallucinations". It is an opportunity for us to report and evaluate at the United Dream Conference at that time, whether Scheler's next work has the potential to help leaders.

When He Meng was thinking, his eyes stayed a few more times on Senessino, the teacher of Miss Cuckoo Renilla and the music director of the Great Concert Hall.

Senessino crossed his arms and frowned, as if he was thinking about something more exhausting.

……

"These people should be thankful that they have never heard the teacher's creative motivation, otherwise they will definitely feel trembling and cry in admiration! Fortunately, when I heard it that day, I didn't know the true meaning of 'this work', and thought it was just "" Awakening Poem", otherwise I will definitely fall into it..."

An, who had gotten into the light veil of the parasol, was sitting cross-legged on the tablecloth on the ground, holding a cup of cold drink, and looking at Fan Ning who was pensively on the opposite side.

She and Luna will never forget the teacher's casual words that day, but full of boundless conceit——

"In this work, I will redefine all kinds of sounds in nature, first from the appearance of the world, then to the will of the world, and finally let the whole world sing and sing for it!"

On the opposite hillside, a conferment ceremony platform was being built, and there was still a sea of ​​people at the bottom of the valley, almost including the most upper-class people in the southern country, and Fan Ning never paid much attention to all of this.

He was always immersed in his own thoughts, and the rain of petals had already covered a thick layer of colorful blankets above the parasol.

"The first half of the double theme is the soft fox lily, and the second half is the withering and withering of the flowers, and then, the new life quickly——"

In the harp part starting from the 30th bar, the pen tip recorded two sets of clear and ethereal decomposition chord arpeggios.

"If it is arbitrarily judged that plants cannot enter dreams, then the sleeping group images related to flowers, plants and trees in dreams are completely just human cognitive projections. This seems to be contrary to the basic common sense of mysticism that 'the world's appearance and will are both real'. You must know the world The existence of each life form in the appearance has its own meaning, and the individual spirit of each life form comes from the refraction and sinking of the radiance, and its sacred attributes cannot be ignored under any circumstances..."

"And if the soul is likewise attributed to the plant, instead of allowing the existence of a plant soul, the whole teleological view of nature appears so satisfactory that a multitude of relations and arrangements acquire a vivid and rich Significance—Otherwise, as I said before, only the 'death' and 'resurrection' of human beings are grand narratives, and the 'withering' and 'rebirth' of vegetation, wouldn't they become a bunch of empty things?"

"This is also what the flowers on the prairie told me..." Fan Ning smiled and continued to write his thoughts.

50 bars, subtitles, flute and violin parts appear restless triplets, and violently undulating roundabouts, trills and staccatos, and then evolve into more dramatic dotted rhythms, quintuplets between the parts Even sextuplets...

This symbolizes that a violent storm has swept across the fox lily field, and the flowers and branches are moaning and weeping, and there has been a wider area of ​​desolation.

If we say that the internal opposition of the dual themes in the second movement makes the music switch between the warm and beautiful flowers and the sad and withered individual characters.Then the alternate development between the theme and the subtopic reveals the unchanging brutal nature of nature under the beautiful scenery.

At the end of the last part, Fanning recorded the triplet group of the woodwind group from strong to weak and gradually drifting away in measure 266, and described the death-knell percussion sound with the glockenspiel.

This is the complaint and desire of flowers. Compared with the chaotic and dark "mysterious motive" of the first movement, they undoubtedly achieved a breakthrough from "nothing" to "something". However, they are also praying to enter a higher scope and field .

There is not a soul in the world who does not desire to rise higher.

Another hour after setting up the framework of the second movement, Fanning put down his pen, got up, grabbed some food to eat, and then lifted the veil of the parasol.

Under the eyes of thousands of people, he strolled down the hillside of Huahai, followed by Luna and An.

The scorching sun hits the cheeks directly, the petals flutter and fall, and the hot golden edges change perspective shapes in the air.

"Sorry to keep everyone waiting." Amidst the cheers of the crowd, he shook hands with these representatives of the church and the royal family one by one. The elegant smile on his face coexisted with a sense of alienation. polite response.

The stiff lines of He Meng's face are somewhat contrasted in the soft and warm sea of ​​flowers:

"It doesn't matter, for a composer, only creation is the top priority, and the rest is an add-on."

Many masters love to hear these words, and feel that the other party is a person who really understands artists - He Meng has rich experience in dealing with this aspect.

"Not entirely, it depends on your mood." Fan Ning stared at one of the chief inspectors who drove him out of the Northern Continent with a half-smile.

He was thinking about how to deal with the group of people in the Special Patrol Office and how to deal with it. The ideal situation is to delay the investigation process without blindly avoiding it. The way to master the rhythm as much as possible.

"Mr. Scheler is a person who follows his heart." He Meng smiled, "Actually, after you decided to support students, we all want to know if you have any needs to help with creation. After all, bay leaves Gifts such as crowns, gold trophies, Jerez wine, and immortal nectar will be given to the poet laureate, but as a composer, you actually have more decisive achievements... This is also an important reason why I just wanted to meet and congratulate you."

Do you want to get acquainted first through some gifts?
"I'm not interested in money." Fanning said frankly without thinking, "Why don't you come and buy a villa."

Not interested in money but want a suite?
If someone else said this, it would be a cold joke or a hypocrite, but the person who said it was...

"Art history proves that the success of many great musicians' creations has been influenced by their residences and resting resorts." Archbishop Fields asked with a smile, "I don't know, Mr. Scheler's favorite resort. How is it?"

I am not afraid that he will ask for it, but I am afraid that he will not ask for it.

This Scheler is indeed a wonderful person.The high-ranking members of the church and the royal family also sighed in their hearts.

"It's pretty good here." Fan Ning slightly raised his head to look at the scenery, "Give me a house in Fox Lily Field."

Since Mertraun in the Northern Continent has a "Composer House", it is not impossible to have one on the outskirts of Tia in the Southern Continent. Of course, their styles will be very different, so that there will be one more point of comparison among the public in the future. ... Fanning thought with some evil in his heart.

"Hahaha, I don't know if it's a coincidence, or Mr. Scheler already knew about our church tradition."

Fields' words made Fanning glance at him questioningly.

"Because the main church of my Fanghui Temple is located deep in the Fox Lily Field, the church has regulations that private building of houses is prohibited in the Fox Lily Field area! But there are exceptions, and the exception is naturally the poet laureate in history or someone who has reached a higher attainment New Moon Poet, now even Mr. Walter enjoys this courtesy, let alone his teacher, hehe..."

"After the ceremony is over later, I will send someone to accompany Mr. Scheler around several good places with seas of flowers and streams, which are suitable for holiday creation. In these places, you will see some elegant and enthusiastic works with a sense of age. Villas, you can choose according to your own preferences."

After explaining here, the archbishop smiled quite interestingly:
"Speaking of which, this is indeed a courtesy that many troubadours or music lovers yearn for."

"Because these villas built in the Fox Lily field in the suburbs of Tiya are almost all the former residences or former residences of a great musician or even a music master in history who once rested and vacationed!"
