musicians of old

Chapter 85 The idea of ​​the ending

Fanning's fingers moved on the score, explaining to Sheeran the most important "narrative framework" of the last movement.

The little girl sitting next to her got a little closer, looking at the music notes carefully.

There is a short introduction before the final movement, first an explosive unison, and then a series of rapid passages played by strings.

"Human Motive", or "Giant Motive", is blown by the trombone from the sixth bar, but only four notes are played before it is roughly interrupted by "Devil Motive", and the strange descending chromatic fragments are sequentially from The woodwind group, the string group, and the brass group played out, and the timbre ranged from soft, to sharp, to ferocious.

Naturally, the two had never heard it played before, but they felt the hairs on their bodies stand on end just by anticipating the effect in their hearts.

Afterwards, the two fell into disputes and struggles. The "Devil Motive", which symbolizes fate and evil thoughts, wandered and deformed among the various voices, and the "Giant Motive" was always presented with an incomplete melody, as if lingering.

It was not until the 54th bar that the full version of the "Giant Motive" was finally presented. The French horn, trombone, oboe, and clarinet were played in unison, and they fought back with a heroic attitude of resistance, launching a tragic fight with the "Devil Motive".

The first appearance of "Psalm Motivation" is the 388th bar, which is blown by seven French horns, symbolizing divinity and purification. After a series of development, summary and sublimation, the final music ends in a brilliant forte.

From the sense of hearing, it seems to be a triumphant ending.

But in the blank space at the end of the score manuscript, Professor Anton wrote the following two paragraphs:
"Where we've been at the end, the end of the piece is only apparent, and a false end in its entirety. My intention was to show the kind of struggle that sometimes people think victory is at hand when in fact it is. Out of reach."

"The sense of hearing is indeed brilliant, but the motivation of the giant of resistance has actually disappeared in the end. Victory has nothing to do with him. His time has either passed or has not yet come."

The ink notes of the two passages vary in shades and thickness, and appear to have been written on different dates.

"I can feel that this has created a strong philosophical meaning." Fan Ning looked back at the score silently again, replaying the last movement of this song with 731 bars in total, and the actual performance time may be close to 30 minutes.

However, the previous movements are all blank, after all, Professor Anton did not complete it during his lifetime.

Neither did I have time to find a suitable early perspective, nor did I have time to establish a logic of music material changes that runs through the overall situation to form a large-scale symphony structure.

It is equivalent to a novel with only a beautiful ending.

Fan Ning knew that if he wanted to make his debut in the graduation concert, he would not have to recall the classical music works of his previous life and just splice them together bluntly.

On this basis, I must actually expand Mr. Anton's idea into a complete set of symphony movements.

At this time Sheeran said: "Father is proficient in Turangalian and has a deep understanding of Noa language. He chose to use giants as a metaphor for the last movement. He should have noticed the meaning of this word... Speaking of which, that dynasty Named themselves after 'Turangalia', I think apart from the meaning of 'Holy Dynasty', it is also because they feel that they are descendants of giants."

"If they think so, it's ridiculous." Fan Ning said, "According to the descriptions of ancient scholars, the meaning of giant is not 'tall human' at all, but a group of huge elemental creatures..."

Speaking of which, in the abstract meanings represented by each aspect, there are indeed some categories close to elements, such as fire, storm, and frost.

The age of giants, some books say it is the second history, some say it is the first history, but they are all too far away and closer to legends-for it, popular mythological readings are more frequently mentioned than serious historical documents high.

Judging from the historical point of view recognized by the academic circles, human beings gradually dominated the world in the middle and late stages of the second history. Before that, no one could explain the seriously fragmented history.

"Caron, you haven't learned what you have learned yet." The little girl sitting next to her smiled at this moment, "Turangalian is seriously lacking in adjectives, which leads to relying on metaphors. If they express themselves Calling themselves descendants of giants, I’m afraid they are still saying that they have the positive characteristics of giants: majestic heroism, almost long life, power to control elements, etc. Of course, these characteristics may also be their wishful thinking.”

Fan Ning showed an expression of sudden realization: "That's why the teacher chose giants as metaphors for his works."

In this way, the source of inspiration for this movement can be explained.

Myths, epics, literature, philosophy... are indeed often regarded by artists as nourishment for creation.

But unfortunately, the teacher was obsessed with the mysterious chords in the fragments of the sound sequence, and the inspiration first grew morbidly, and then the pleasure of listening would use the "Secretary Mystery" to rob him of the light of his first acquaintance.

And this mystery comes from the classic "Original Mystery" of the Blood God Cult, which is a part of the anonymous document that records the "Turangalia Illusionary Art".

Fan Ning once again clarified the next key points: investigate Mr. Anton's referrer Spin Cecil for auctioning the fragments of the music series, investigate his Onyx Culture Media Company, and the "broker" in the underground party.

Judging from the results of my investigation to the Turner Museum of Art the next day after time travel, the most likely scenario for the fragments of the audio series should be one of the guides left by my father.

But it was taken away by others long ago, and it went to the Prudence Auction House, and then to Mr. Anton.

Could it be this secret organization did it too?

Fan Ning returned to the original topic: "I think the source of the name is so reliable, so what aspect is the secret history about?"

"Regarding the Real and Probable Causes of the Fall of the Turangalian Dynasty."

"The real cause of demise." Fan Ning's eyes flashed, "The existence of the two main dynasties in the third history is particularly uneven. The Noah dynasty lasted for more than 3 years, and the Turangalia dynasty lasted for more than 100 years. Well, the common point is the process of destruction. Very quickly."

Sheeran said: "The royal family of Turangalia controls a powerful organization of sages called the 'Grand Court School'. This organization has a wide range of research on the Lord of Witnesses, but the study is the most profound, and it is dedicated to What I want to follow is a type of Lord of Witness that is completely different from the type we are currently familiar with..."

Distinct types? Fan Ning thought of "watching death" and "flow" worshiped by the Transcendence Club.

Could it be that this is the same category?Or is there more types of Lord of Witness?
The secret history is always obscure, scattered, ambiguous, and even paradoxical, but the truth that is destined to exist behind the thousands of clues always attracts those who know it to find out.

"It is said that the 'Great Court School' has been investigating the reasons for the sudden collapse of the Noah Dynasty before them. They are afraid of stepping into the footsteps. They have discovered and acted, and the evidence is valid. They are not as short-lived as the Noah Dynasty. , but continued prosperity for more than 1400 years..."

"The 'Grand Court School' regards the Lords of the Witnesses as the source of strength for the Turangalians, and as the protectors who kept their kingdom from falling to the end of the Noah Dynasty. The people of Turangalia are looking for a place. They firmly believe that this world full of imperfections is just a broken product that will eventually collapse, and that place is the ultimate refuge revealed by the Lords of Witness.”

"The ultimate refuge? This type of description is like a common element in the secret teachings of the church, and it may be fictional on a certain basis of reality. So in the end, did the 'Great Court School' find it?"

"From some documents, it is speculated that that place really exists, and they finally found it." Sheeran replied.

"Then who are they?" Fanning couldn't help asking.

"Then, the 3rd history ended, and they perished."
