Culture Conquers Foreign Worlds

Having seen the symphony orchestra formed by Griffin, Harvey somewhat understood Morphy's mentality of mocking Griffin.

The side hall that can accommodate hundreds of people to practice playing is full of people. They are holding various musical instruments, including violin, viola, cello, trombone, trumpet, etc., and their attitudes are casual, chatting and laughing, plus men and women, young and old. There are all of them, each wearing casual clothes, and the whole symphony band looks like it was just pulling people in on the side of the road to make up the count.

A formal orchestra usually has a black suit, and there are no female players. Even during the practice period, they will remain silent to prevent their own voices from affecting others.

Griffin entered the spacious side hall, and the side hall was quiet. The symphony members watched Griffin and Harvey and Diana behind him, speculating about Harvey’s identity. Some musicians seemed to recognize Harvey. , Stood up from his seat in surprise, and excitedly discussed the reason why Harvey came here with his friends around.

Griffin stood on the podium at the bottom of the room, his sharp eyes swept over everyone and shouted coldly: "Now, everyone is quiet."

The voice could hear the suppressed anger. I think that Morphy was very angry just now, and now I see this scene even more angry.

"These two are my guest, Mr. Harvey Adrian and his wife, Ms. Diana. They came here today to see our orchestra's performance. All the members sat back to their original positions and prepared to play the "Symphony of Destiny" again. Griffin picked up the baton on the table and waited for all the musicians to take their place. He raised his hands and swung it under the gaze of all the musicians.

"Humhhhhh~!" The heavy and powerful ensemble music sounded in unison, and no matter how many times it was heard, it seemed as if a heavy object hits the heart, making the heart nervous.

Standing on the podium, Griffin waved his hands, his movements were fierce to express the tense atmosphere created by the tune of "Symphony of Destiny", sometimes swift and sometimes gentle, he led the rhythm of the symphony, and the music sitting on the stage The movements of the hands are unified, the bow is slow and fast, and the left hand dexterously flicks the strings. The simple and unified movements make people feel a strange beauty.

Symphony is not only an art that can be listened to, it is also an art that can be seen.

After the performance, Griffin's straight body suddenly lost its strength. When he came down from the stage, intensive sweat leaked out of his forehead. He took out a handkerchief and wiped it, completely unhappy with the performance.

"I have to admit that I am still old." Griffin smiled bitterly to himself, and he looked a little rickety when he relaxed.

This performance may be very good to ordinary people, but as a conductor, he can hear the discordant tones, who did not pull up the violin treble, the bass was too fast, who did not have enough energy when playing, and who could not follow. The rhythm of the upper ensemble, etc., as Morphy said, this symphony orchestra is at best a second-rate level and is not qualified to play the "Symphony of Destiny".

Harvey and Diana stood up and applauded for the performance. Griffin announced that he would let the musicians practice freely and then took Harvey to another conference room.

After sitting down, Griffin seemed to be a teenager suddenly old, and his expression was so gloomy and ashamed that he didn't dare to face Harvey.

Harvey said with relief: "Mr. Griffin, you don't have to be like this. It is a great thing to be able to form an orchestra and successfully perform "Symphony of Destiny" in these few months."

Griffin sighed and shook his head: "I know the situation of the orchestra myself. If I continue like this, I will play "Symphony of Destiny" for an indefinite period of time. How can I play "Symphony No. 9"? I am ashamed of my selfish thoughts, but I beg You gave me the right to play, but now I messed up myself."

"In my opinion, this is considered to be a very good performance. Mr. Griffin really wants to play these two symphonies, so that he will not disappoint my friend's idea. I still remember the score of "Symphony of Destiny". Is the first sentence written?"

Griffin looked complicated and nodded: "It is the soul of this symphony, how could I forget it."

Harvey solemnly said: "Mr. Griffin, I think you may not know why this symphony is called "Symphony of Destiny"? Why is there such a sentence on the score?"

"My friend, you can tell me directly."

Harvey has a sonorous and powerful voice, and his words contain deep admiration: "Because Mr. Beethoven was already suffering from ear problems when he was composing this "Symphony of Destiny". You know how much this is for a musician. The painful thing, he distanced himself from his relatives and friends, and wrote this symphony by himself. He understood everything that happened to him, but a musician who was favored by the **** of music suffered from fate."

Griffin looked stunned, recalling every syllable in the symphony sheet, and muttering to himself incredibly: "Stroke the throat of fate..."

The meaning behind this sentence is more than Griffin thought.

He asked again: "The Ninth Symphony?"

"Yes, the "Ninth Symphony" was created after Mr. Beethoven could not hear the sound at all."

"No wonder so...No wonder so..." Griffin looked agitated, got up and walked around, thinking for a while, with deep admiration: "I can't imagine what happened to Mr. Beethoven, but Mr. Beethoven is undoubtedly a real musician, and only with such a tenacious and noble spirit can he create such a symphony! Mr. Adrian, thank you for your encouragement. Mr. Beethoven wrote this after defeating fate A symphony score, and I just sing his greatness. If these difficulties cannot be overcome, then I am indeed not qualified to play these two symphonies."

Harvey smiled and said, "Mr. Griffin, in my opinion, there are other reasons for the uneven quality of your symphony orchestra. These reasons should not be a burden to your orchestra.

Griffin looked at Harvey in surprise, his face solemnly said: "What do you see."

"You seem to lack support, especially financial support."

The clothing is not uniform and the quality of the staff is uneven. Even the musical instruments are brought by the musicians. This is enough to explain the current dilemma of the Griffin Orchestra. If there is a large amount of financial support, they can be replaced with uniform clothing, and uniform instruments can be eliminated at will. Those who are not serious and attract more professional musicians to join.

Griffin confessed with a solemn face: "Yes, I emptied my life savings and only bought the right to use the side hall. Every well-known orchestra has the support of some large chambers of commerce or nobles, but there is no support. People are willing to bear the high price for an obscure symphony orchestra."

"I am here for this~www.readwn.com~ I am willing to persuade Count Henrietta to provide you with financial support, but I still need your help on some things." Harvey can represent Karen. The Weir Chamber of Commerce provides financial support for Griffin, but now the Cromwell Chamber of Commerce is in a period of rapid development, and its foundation is unstable. The photographic crystal industry, the photo printing machine industry and the subsequent record players to be launched require a lot of investment. Manpower and material resources are not suitable for continued large-scale foreign investment.

Griffin stood up excitedly and bowed deeply to Harvey: "Of course! Please say, please allow me to express my high respect and gratitude to you."

Harvey told me about the need to record the "Symphony of Destiny" and "Symphony No.". The right to use these two pieces of music was originally in Harvey's hands. This approach is not a requirement. Second, Harvey needs Griffin’s symphony orchestra practiced many choruses and symphonies that appeared in "Frozen" while practicing. "Frozen" is an animated cartoon, and there are no strict requirements on the accuracy of performance, as long as it is formal All the performances of the symphony orchestra are qualified.

This is not a problem at all. Originally, the symphony orchestra practice is not all practice of a piece of music, the most important thing is to run the cooperation with each other.

After reading the score for "Frozen" by Harvey, Griffin changed his slumped face and nodded in agreement.
