musicians of old

Hearing this understatement, Walter was stunned.

And everyone in the inspection team, including He Meng, including the senior officials of the church and the royal family, looked at the students Scheler taught him with a kind of interest.

Fan Ning's tone of explanation was completely like "Why are you so unpromising": "As my student, your ambition should be higher... I am not interested in fame and fortune, but the Harvest Art Festival is only two years away. There's nothing wrong with you charging more while you're young, after all, your level of command is full of praise from even the high-sighted chiefs of the special patrol agency..." He Meng glanced to the side as he spoke. , Anna, and the other investigators nodded politely.

For some reason, Miss Nightingale began to find it funny again. Brother Walter is obviously ten years older than the teacher. Although the talent in the field of art sometimes has nothing to do with age, the teacher's tone of heart every time... The key is, why? The other people's response eyes are all a matter of course, and they are not surprised?

"...Besides, you have won the laurels now. Keep an eye on the top ten orchestras in the world, and at least seek a permanent conductor position. Isn't that a little bit passable?"

"But teacher." The dizzy Walter still wanted to explain something, "Actually, the time and development momentum of the team are also very important. As a team that has been ranked No.11 in the world for about a year..."

You can't fucking talk, can you say a few words less.Fanning looked at Walter, who was wearing a laurel leaf crown and flushed from drinking, and finally his heart began to twitch:

"San Porto Philharmonic, music director, next time you go here, stop talking."

What a joke, there could have been another great musician of the "Scheler family" who was evenly matched with Fanning. Why does this guy have to bang his head against the wall, and he can't even hold him back?
He directly reported that the first troupe of the Western Continent, which was comparable to the Vienna Philharmonic in his previous life, was the music director.

"?" Walter shivered instinctively, feeling that he was about to wake up, and said quickly, "Teacher, if you have an idea to be the director of the San Porto Philharmonic, get me an assistant conductor, then I will Willing to return to the Western Continent early..."

"Mr. Scheler should have created many touching works during his wandering career on the border of the Western Continent, right?" He Meng's chatty question came out from behind Fan Ning just right again.

Yet another investigation question that implies the past.

Fan Ning made a leisurely memory.

"I think the answer is certain." Archbishop Fields, who is also a member of the investigation team, is full of confidence, "After all, Mr. Scheler wrote "Winter Journey" and "Song of Rückert" in a short period of time in the southern country. ", and now we have started the creation of an unprecedented large-scale orchestral suite, and those who have a little understanding of their charm will have more fantasies about the past and future of Mr. Scheler's artistic career."

Everyone couldn't help nodding. Indeed, to measure whether a "Forging Lion" has the potential to be promoted to "New Moon" in the future, there is another factor with considerable weight-quantity!
Any master does not become a master just by relying on a few masterpieces, but a long list of works, and quite a few masters can be labeled as "highly productive".

This is also a good example, illustrating the relative independence between the "style" of a work of art and the "style" of an artist: just like every Beethoven symphony has an interval between "Forged Lion" and "Torch Bearer". Varying attainments, also the piano sonata, also the piano concerto, also the string quartet, also countless violin works, but also art songs, operas and large religious works...

However, if only one or two of the above works are born, or belong to different individual composers, the "style" of these composers will mostly stay at the level of "forging lions" and cannot go further.

The "new moon" is definitely not that simple, it is a rising celestial body!The reason why Fan Ning has been judged by so many people as high potential is because while maintaining the high quality of his works, he has shown an extremely high creative speed in just two years. However, even so, he still wants to take that step. Need more work and accumulation of time.

"Naturally, I also wrote some songs, which are also vocal divertimento." Fan Ning seemed to have finished his memory, and smiled lightly, "When the famous singer is in the finals, you will hear that my lovely Miss Nightingale will sing for everyone. The rendition... well, it’s not strictly a premiere, but it’s very close, I’ve sung for some old people in the past, it’s not complete, and it’s not really a public work.”

"It's exciting." He Meng felt that the level of security was further improved, because as a troubadour, Scheler's main genre was different from Fan Ning's. He preferred to create art songs depicting "court love". Of course, for He also has a strong ability to control the common touchstone of serious music such as orchestral music.

The liaison officer Anna on the side once again tried to understand Scheler's past creation volume by insinuating: "This famous singer finalist, it is said that at least 3 songs are prepared, but that is just a threshold for entry. In fact, if you want to win the championship, you must now The degree of competition, maybe seven or eight capitals are not enough..."

"It's not just seven or eight songs. In recent years, ten or twenty songs have gone up!" Fields said with a sigh, "If there is such a fierce confrontation, Mr. Scheler plans to let Miss Nightingale use all of her If it is a work, then she is really blessed, and the ears of the audience are also blessed."

Judging from the previous finals, the three songs prepared by the singer in the early stage are only enough to ensure that they enter the top 3 with good quality. The real famous singer award is only the last two places for a male and a female, and the other 8 people are all nominate.

In order to compete for the final champion, under the witness of the audience and the judges, the contestants will compete one after another, round after round, and save the latest and most touching works until the end. Lasting until late at night, it was a great test for the singer's mind and function, and it also had an extremely pleasing drama.

"I have the teacher's "Winter Journey", Mr. Archbishop." Ann smiled happily.

This vocal divertimento was born on a caravan journey, and it has been sung since arriving in Tia City. However, the range of singing is limited at present, and the investigation team has only done part of the chart research. In the final occasion, it will definitely bring you a sense of freshness. , Moreover, the volume of 24 songs is sufficient for continuous confrontation.

"Walter, how is your piano sight-reading?" Fanning asked aloud.

"Very good." The conductor replied truthfully, but added for the sake of rigor, "As long as it is not compared with you."

"very good."

"Do you need me to accompany Miss Nightingale to "Winter Journey" in the finals? The 'Wake Up Song' has come to an end, and I am very happy to help."

Only the final of the Famous Singer Contest is different from the previous competition. In order to ensure the greatest degree of artistic performance, the piano accompaniment will be brought by the contestants.

Although the judges and the audience all understand the principle that "the judge should be based on the singer", the overall sound effect can always give people a preference or prejudice. In theory, the contestants can even invite a master. Willing to accompany a junior for several hours, this kind of strong platform itself is the embodiment of the player's strength.

"Help her record a set of "Winter Journey"." Fan Ning said, "Your Excellency He Meng, they should have the same company here as the West Continent, right?"

"Naturally." He Meng said happily, and immediately said that the church should take the lead in dispatching this matter as soon as possible.

But he had some doubts in his heart.

Support another record company in the Southern Continent, and launch several sets of popular records of "potential artists". Journey" record is not necessary ah?
"Theoretically speaking, this will reserve some goodwill and popularity among the citizens, but compared to that, choosing to meet for the first time at the opera house late at night will be more exciting." Fields agreed At the same time, he also made suggestions tactfully.

To warm up or to shock?Experience tells them that the latter option may work better.

"Choose both." Fan Ning's waving action stunned everyone, ""Winter Journey" is used to record the record, and the final scene will be warmed up with "Song of Ruckert" first, and then I will sing two of my songs. The vocal divertimento I wrote in the Western Continent before, Ann, do you think it is enough, and if it is not enough, I will write a little more..."

"It's mainly Walter. You have to work harder recently. You may have to play fifty or sixty accompaniments. But since you said that you are very good at sight-reading, you must be playing casually..."

Under the stunned eyes of everyone, Fan Ning turned around and strode away: "Luna, tell them to put away the picnic umbrellas above..."

He Meng stood there for more than half a minute, and finally began to quickly make arrangements: "Hurry up and make an appointment with Falla Records in Misin City, as long as Miss Nightingale and Mr. Walter rehearse "Winter Journey" Well, it is necessary to be able to arrange the recording studio immediately and put it into production and promotion."

"Also, the other two vocal divertimentos that were premiered during the competition also asked Falla Records to prepare live recording equipment for me. The early luck came to them. It depends on whether they want to catch it. The record industry in the Southern Continent lagging behind, but since they are selected, they must at least show the highest level in the Southern Continent."

The spirit of the inspector general was inevitably not uplifted.

Fan Ning played a "Ten Concertos" in the opening season, yes, it was very strong, and now Scheler also made a "Vocal Dtimento Trilogy" for the first time, and with the strong push of the discussion group, the sales and influence will be achieved by then It's hard to say who is in front.

First use Scheler's art songs to compete with Fanning Concerto, and then use the follow-up suite of "Awakening Poems" to compete with "Resurrection". The thinking becomes clearer and clearer, and the road becomes wider and wider!
After the crown picking ceremony was over, Walter apologized to Ann again and again, saying that from tomorrow morning, he would accompany the steel partner to rehearse according to the teacher's request.

He was still obsessed with the bunch of Janus waltzes and operetta selections on tonight's tour, and he was in a hurry to go back and take the orchestra to the stage, which showed how bad the music director was in his mind.

Fanning was taken by church people to see the house.

The villas where these great musicians or poets laureate once lived are all located in the outskirts of Tiya City. There are great differences in style and scale, but without exception, they are all places with lush flowers in front and villages with mountains and rivers behind them.

While touring, looking at and picking out his favorite vacant villas, Fanning naturally asked which musicians had lived in them, and he was trying to find out whether Viern lived in this area.

It was impossible for Fanning to let others think that Scheler was deliberately investigating Viern. In his plan, for the sake of caution, even if it was confirmed, he would not choose that house to live in.

But in fact, this plan failed to be used. He went around all the vacant villas and failed to ask.

Now Fanning was a little uncertain.

Of course, there are some possibilities. For example, the former residence of Viern 40 years ago is not vacant now. For example, a villa has been inhabited by many people for a long time, and the accompanying priests just answered one of them casually. two.

It's normal to show some curiosity about their past, and it's not appropriate to ask too much.

In the end, Fanning chose the place where the classical guitar master Esta Tone once lived according to his actual preferences.

The terrain of the sea of ​​flowers in front of the field of vision here slopes slowly upwards. Looking up, it seems to be open to the end of the world. There are several cool lakes formed by the convergence of gurgling streams on the side, and the far end of the Steinach Mountains on the back is magnificent. , Tail veins, cooking smoke curling up, walking in it seems to be inspired by the endless magical creations of nature both in mind and body.

After doing some docking on their own needs, a large and efficient repair and cleaning team started to work.

Since the maintenance of the church's house is already very good, and their efficiency is extremely high, it may take more than a day to move in at the longest.

Taking advantage of this gap, Fanning set off for the Eleanor Court Art Archives.

There is an open-air corridor in the courtyard of the main entrance. After awakening in midsummer, the clear water flowing from the fountain also becomes a rich and sweet wine.

When Fan Ning was looking at choosing a villa before, he casually chatted, "It is said that the repertoire scores that have achieved awakening over the years will be regularly loaded into the art archives." The other party immediately confirmed this, saying that his "Poem of Awakening" is no exception, and enthusiastically He sincerely invited him to visit the royal family's art archives when he was free.

Therefore, when Fan Ning was only ten meters away from the door, he was warmly received by the staff.

"As early as when Mr. Walter just held the ceremony, we reprinted the transcript of your little girl student's score, and it will be kept together with the deeds of Walter's command to realize the awakening in our viewing room on the third floor. In the corridor."

"I admit I have a greater interest in seeing what they look like."

The sun shone through the cracks in the colored windows of the archives, leaving swirling and shining beams of light on the marble floor. While listening to the introduction, Fan Ning admired the magnificent interior of the southern-style building.

Suddenly, at the corner, he bumped into a pretty but indifferent lady in a long brown dress.

Behind them were two gentlemen with briefcases.

During the time when the two sides looked at each other, Fanning always gave this "strange lady" a polite, melancholy and alienated smile in accordance with Scheler's character, but after passing by the three of them, a huge feeling surged in his heart. doubt.

"Inspector Norma Gunn?"

Regarding the appearance of the Inspector General in the Southern Continent, Fan Ning had already expected it in his heart. After all, He Meng had already arrived, and it was reported that the two of them were not present at the fund donation meeting in the Northern Continent a few days ago.

But why did she appear on this occasion?

Some kind of unexplainable strange premonition lingered in Fan Ning's heart. He went up to the third floor calmly, stood in front of the glass display corridor, and first bent down in front of the score and deed record booth of his "Awakening Poetry" Watched for a while.

Then, accompanied by the staff, he started to move towards the past year area, moving sideways while stopping to watch.

New calendar 913 years, 912 years... 900 years, 899 years...

"Can I take it out and flip through the score?" He pointed to the booth area of ​​the 894th year of the new calendar.

"No problem, Mr. Scheler." The other party agreed very happily.

"Thank you." It was a violin concerto, and Fan Ning carefully read it for about 10 minutes, and then handed back the materials.

898 years, 897 years... 891 years, 890 years.

Fanning continued to talk, to read, and he spent a longer time on an opera.

Finally, his steps moved again.

877, 876, 875.

"August 875, 8, New Calendar, Louis Viern, "Prelude."

"Why is there no music score here?" Fanning's pupils contracted imperceptibly.

When the staff heard the words, they smiled embarrassedly, and replied politely:
"We have just been notified by the church that this year's sheet music file was taken away by the inspector. Well, it is the lady who passed you by more than 40 minutes ago."
