——Today’s two chapters are merged and updated together, so as not to whet everyone’s appetite.

In order to write it out, I haven't had lunch or taken a nap yet. I went to eat something first and then came back to correct typos and so on.

Asking for a monthly ticket~

…………………………………………………………………………

Municipal Square, around the Crystal Wall.

Seeing several famous singers coming out together with the adult choir and children's choir, standing behind the band in a semicircle, the people around them were filled with astonishment.

"What's this?"

"Why is Mr. Fabbrini here too?"

"Isn't the last piece not a symphony but a chorus?"

…

They were full of expectations just now and were only surprised at this time. They had no idea what was going on and why there were singers, choirs and children's choirs appearing at Lucien Evans's concert, and the repertoire was clearly

It's a symphony in D minor!

Listening to the buzz around her, Betty asked her sister Joanna doubtfully: "Will Mr. Evans's symphony include a chorus section?"

"How is this possible? No symphony has ever had a chorus! This is not an oratorio!" A nearby Aalto citizen strongly expressed disbelief. He was a senior symphony lover.

Seeing her sister being questioned, Joanna snorted softly: "Mr. Evans is famous for change and innovation. Does his previous "Destiny" and "A New Country" perfectly fit the traditional symphony structure?"

Similar debates took place across the town square, making people increasingly curious about Lucien Evans' last symphony.

In the chant hall, watching Fabbrini and others filing out, Christopher sighed: "He really wants to add a vocal chorus part to the symphony. What a bold innovation. I wonder what the effect will be?"

Although Lucien's rehearsals were kept secret, the Aalto Musicians Association was not big, and Fabbrini and others were not unknown people, so most musicians and musicians guessed that Lucien was going to perform in the symphony.

boldly uses the chorus to match.

Because they are used to Lucien's changes in each piece of music, the musicians all adopt a wait-and-see attitude. As long as it is not as outrageous as "Renewed Kingdom", they are looking forward to innovation in the form of symphony, especially Christo

A kind-hearted elder like my husband is watching all this with joy, hoping to bring new inspiration to his music creation.

"It is said to be very good, but rehearsing alone and performing in front of a large audience in the choir hall are two different things. The effect may be a hundred times better!" Natasha said with confidence, as if she had composed the music and was about to take the stage to conduct it.

It was the same as herself, and at the same time she complained a little in her heart, "This guy is really good at keeping secrets. Obviously, in the past three years, there have been prototypes of these two symphonies, and one of them is almost completed, but he didn't even mention it.

Is it to create surprises?”

In her opinion, it was obvious that the two grand symphonies "From the New World" and "Ode to Joy" could not have been composed in just over a month after Lucien returned to Aalto, and Lucien also admitted at the time that he composed

Part of the movement.

Othello shook his head: "But there has never been an attempt at vocal chorus in a symphony. How it will perform in the end is still uncertain. It is an unknown mystery."

At this time, Lucien, who was wearing a straight tuxedo, as handsome and quiet as the moonlight, walked out from the backstage with a short baton, and saluted everyone around him by pressing his chest.

The discussion in the Psalm Hall or the Municipal Square suddenly stopped and completely subsided.

This is the charm of a top musician.

…………

Turning around and standing in the center of the band's semicircle, Lucien raised his hands in a gesture of quietness and preparation.

I habitually closed my eyes and recalled all the sufferings and meditations in the past. I recalled that I arrived at the port of the Kingdom of Holm after a long and arduous journey. When I came out of the dark and depressing wooden cargo box, I saw him wearing a black double-breasted gown and a high-rise hat.

In the scene of Lazar wearing a top hat, the weather was bright and he had a bright smile, like a divine sunshine that pierced the darkness and hardship and heralded the coming of light!

Without the accumulation of life and emotion, it is difficult for a conductor to master the music well.

The baton in the right hand and the empty left hand rise and fall gently, seeming to capture the feelings and melody from the distance, from the beginning. The low music plays, as if vibrating from the heart, a scene that is deep, calm and serious.

The hazy distant scenery seems to pop up before everyone's eyes.

Victor only felt that his soul had an uncontrollable trembling feeling under this vibrato. He didn't know whether it came from the excitement of this melody or the awe caused by the seriousness and depth it contained.

Such a trembling feeling passed through everyone's heart, including the cardinal, who all had an initial, profound, and intuitive impression of the music. It was grand and serious, and seemed to contain a vigorous and unstoppable force.

It also indicates the coming danger, which is the difficulty and pain that everyone cannot avoid and will experience from birth to death!

Then, the power contained gradually grew, the music became vigorous and powerful, and the unusually distinct rhythm shocked the soul. The other theme was depressing and severe, and it seemed that everyone was unwilling to face the difficulties and difficulties that came.

Destined from the beginning, the two themes are repeatedly entangled, allowing the entire first movement to embody the unyielding struggle and the cry of never giving up that run through "Destiny" and "Pathology".

There are some gentle or high-spirited melodies mixed in, which not only use the temporary calm during the struggle to set off the hardship and tragedy of the battle, but also seem to reveal the sacredness and inevitability of overcoming suffering, defeating enemies and defeating darkness!

The sixteen-minute first movement passed quickly as the audience was so focused that it ended with a temporary victory in the struggle. They burst into thunderous applause and expressed their love for this movement without reservation.

"The beginning is so grand and solemn, deep and solemn. This movement is really outstanding, and the structure is rigorous and solid, very perfect, almost a movement without flaws!" Othello, who likes solemn music, did not frown like before in "A New Kingdom", but

He was praising him with the most flattering words he could think of at the moment.

Natasha echoed with some pride: "If the next three movements maintain the same level, then this one will undoubtedly be the top symphony, and can be accepted on the same level as "Destiny" and "Dawn of War".

A classic that is worshiped by those who come after us. This concert was truly rich to the extreme, and two of them were new works. I’m afraid it will be difficult to have something similar happen in the future.”

But Grand Duke Violet was slightly confused and said: "No matter from every aspect, the first movement is worthy of your praise, but I always feel that something is missing, missing that shocking and explosive feeling?"

"Indeed, this movement is close to perfection in terms of technique, structure, and melody, but it is not as full of breathless terror and urgency as the first movement of "Destiny."

It’s not like the first chapter of “Pathetique” or “Moonlight” that gives people a unique inner feeling.”

Christopher spoke about his senses, "It is grand, deep, and severe, but it lacks something memorable. It is like a volcano that contains terrifying power. It occasionally erupts, but it still remains."

It didn't meet everyone's expectations, it didn't flow out naturally, and it gave people an increasingly depressed, low, and dark feeling."

"Mr. Christopher said exactly what I feel, but because of this, I am more and more looking forward to the explosion of a certain movement later. This is the key to whether it can become a true classic." Victor is not anxious, still not.

He awaited the next three movements with suspicion, but he also had a faint sense of darkness and depression.

Count Hayne, Count Rafati and Cardinal Gosser who were sitting next to them found it difficult to intervene in their musical discussion, but this did not prevent them from agreeing with Christopher's senses. Although the struggle in the first movement ended with

A grand victory ending with temporary victory over the enemy and darkness, but they still feel that they are walking alone in the darkness, and there are still many sufferings and dangers ahead.

This is a feeling shared by everyone.

Soon, the second movement began under the conductor of Lucien. Contrary to the tradition that this movement must use the slow form, a lively and bright melody was played, as if chasing the enemy through the previous victory, as if the darkness had briefly disappeared.

, being able to see the bright blue sky and bright sunshine gives people an exciting feeling.

"He really broke the tradition again." Christopher smiled kindly as if he had expected it, with the indulgent smile of an elder doting on his younger generation.

Othello frowned slightly, but quickly let it go, because he felt that it was very appropriate to use the lively Allegro movement to take over the solemnity of the first movement. He couldn't think of a better way, and the changes in the structural arrangements between the movements made it easier for him

Accept it a little bit.

People in the municipal square noticed this change as long as they had a little understanding of the symphony, but they were more focused on listening to the essence of the music. They also liked the second movement equally and felt that the melody was beautiful and the atmosphere was just right.

Since the second movement is so outstanding and consistent, it proves that structural changes are necessary!

The victorious advance continues, but darkness seems to be coming quietly again, and enemies seem to be surrounding them from all directions. The rapid melody brings a nervous feeling to everyone.

In this uneasy mood, the second movement ended. The audience encouraged themselves and encouraged Lucien to burst into enthusiastic applause again. It seemed that the warmer the applause, the less lonely they would be, and the more they could unite together.

Together, we can defeat darkness and evil.

Few symphonies can receive such warm applause at the end of each movement!

After the applause, no one spoke. The feeling of depression and darkness deep in the heart became more and more intense. The deep volcano stopped erupting, as if it was accumulating amazing and terrifying power.

After a short rest and reflection, Lucien waved his baton again and asked the entire orchestra to follow his emotions and play the third movement.

The quiet and serene melody echoes softly, beautifully and gently, making people fall into quiet contemplation.

No musician commented that the structure of this movement is no longer Allegro, but a beautiful Adagio, as soft as a song. After the fierce, exciting, tragic or uneasy struggles of the previous two movements, everyone urgently needs a

Time for quiet reflection, to think about why you are fighting, to think about the meaning of your fight, to recall all the hardships and efforts throughout the struggle, so as to accumulate new strength and gain brilliant and joyful victory!

Does everything you do go smoothly?

Have you ever felt the inner joy after overcoming difficulties?

Are you hit by difficulties everywhere in your life?

Will you fight bravely when facing them, or will you give up in frustration?

…

In quiet thinking, Victor once again recalled the difficulties of life. He never became a musician smoothly:

Forgetting everything, he locked himself in the room to create music, and went against his inner preferences by socializing with nobles and gentlemen from the Musicians Association, thus 'praying' for a concert to come, but what he received was the blow of failure.

The audience left without mercy, and most of the people around them mocked maliciously. I was almost defeated by the difficulties and darkness. Fortunately, with Winnie's encouragement, I was able to stand up again and work ten times harder to regain the honor of the concert.

She took the opportunity and gained success, but before she could fulfill her promise, Winnie was called by the Lord...

Natasha thought about the past. She was of noble birth, had top bloodline, and had a harmonious family. She seemed as happy as being favored by the God of Truth. However, life would never be smooth sailing. In a short period of time, her brother died in war and her mother passed away.

He closed his mind, shouldered a heavy burden, and completely devoted himself to the hard training of the knight.

And when he found his own chivalry, walked out of the shadow of the past, and ushered in a beautiful relationship and a new life, a cruel betrayal that could have been avoided befell him. For the sake of all those who supported and loved him, he

I had to endure the pain and killed my lover, and was almost killed by my cousin's men. Fortunately, Lucien, a good friend, saved me regardless of life and death...

Lucien, who was in command, was also thinking about the various tribulations. The dark past events lingered in his mind. They were so depressing and dangerous, but they gave him rewards for moving forward, allowing him to run towards the light and chase the sun.
To be continued...
