On stage.
The symphony orchestra has taken the stage.
Flute, oboe, trombone, trumpet, timpani and even violin, etc.
From woodwind to brass, from percussion to strings, everyone is ready.
And on the podium before the band.
Wei Shujing held a baton in his hand, was dressed meticulously, and his face was full of seriousness.
Off stage.
All the whispering and talking stopped at once.
Under the gaze of countless eyes in the audience, Wei Shujing waved his baton firmly and forcefully.
“Ding-ding-ding!”
The legendary Symphony of Destiny is played in a public performance on Blue Star for the first time!
dark!
Cold!
majesty!
Four consecutive tragic and powerful notes, accompanied by the immersive sound effect, are like the knock of fate, exploding in the golden hall!
moment.
Countless people changed color!
The second beat that followed was still as powerful as a roar, played in unison by the strings and clarinet, so that everyone in the audience subconsciously tensed up!
First movement!
The theme appears in each part with weak force and in a hurry, as if it is the after-echo of a loud noise, or as if misfortune is spreading everywhere.
Some people got goosebumps;
Some people feel a slight tingling sensation on their scalp;
The scene was filled with a tense and severe atmosphere. All the suffering and misfortune in life were presented in the form of notes in this movement, rushing towards the audience. However, in such despair, there was occasionally joy and the happiness of success, so the pain of failure and the bright hope began to entangle. It seemed to remind everyone in this way:
This is fate.
But fate is unpredictable.
…
On the command platform.
Wei Shujing swept the air with his baton, and a cruel and fierce battle scene seemed to emerge before his eyes. Every note and every melody was fought fiercely amidst the flashing of swords and sabers!
The baton is a sharp blade!
This on-the-spot experience made Wei Shujing's blood boil. He began to devote himself to the performance as never before, as if he was not conducting a band but an army. A firm and simple belief emerged in his mind:
I will defeat fate!
As Wei Shujing came up with this idea, the intensity of the band's performance gradually increased. In the roar of the ensemble, it seemed as if the god of fate was also panicked, so he challenged himself again, trying to dominate everything again.
The baton is raised.
Lighting is the best background.
Two strong chords blocked the roar of the ensemble, and after a moment of silence, loud horn sounds were played in the French horn section.
immediately.
The lyrical second theme presents a sense of tranquility and warmth, a state of mind that longs for peace.
at this time.
The fate theme hiding in the bass becomes more and more stubborn and determined, waiting for an opportunity to retake its territory.
However, a powerful and resolute melody suddenly overwhelmed it with an unstoppable momentum, and the following performance seemed like a struggle of fate...
The first movement ends.
The audience was almost sweating.
The theme of the first movement is not to believe in fate. In fact, the connotation and meaning of the entire "Symphony of Fate" revolve around this point. In simple terms, it is:
My destiny is in my own hands.
It starts with fate knocking on the door, but ends with a fight against the misfortune of fate!
In fact, no one likes to leave everything to fate. Unfortunately, not everyone can be ready to fight against bad luck at any time like the determination expressed in this song, and will never retreat even if the most acute contradictions evolve.
Thinking of the first movement of fate just now...
At this moment, the audience almost instinctively recalled the various legends about "Xianyu".
It is said that he once dreamed of becoming a singer, but he was diagnosed with a serious illness and died soon. Even his originally talented voice was destroyed. However, such a blow still did not make him give up his dream completely. Since he could not sing, he wrote songs for others to sing and became a composer. This became his second best choice...
These legends about Xianyu are almost known to everyone.
Genius combined with such experience seems particularly legendary.
Almost everyone thinks Xianyu is such an evildoer, perhaps it is because of his fate.
"He would rather die than bow to fate, so he defeated fate. This "Symphony of Fate" must be his great creation that was completed based on such an experience!"
There was no deliberate communication.
The performance is not over yet.
The scene was only temporarily quiet, and people were tacitly understanding each other and reached a spiritual consensus in silence.
This is the only definitive explanation!
…
Russell stood up suddenly when he heard the end of the first movement.
Wow!
Russell's blood was boiling, and his excited heart seemed to be led by an invisible big hand, crossing the vicissitudes of life and the wind and rain, rising and rising again in the deep and vast forest!
He saw it!
Under the broad vision!
Those towering branches stand firm and unyielding!
Those trembling leaves are vigorous and tenacious!
Those flourishing fruits are optimistic and persevering!
It is something that cannot be shaken by the wind or struck by thunder. Sometimes it is heroic and majestic, sometimes it is gentle and graceful, and it conveys an indomitable spirit and will through thousands of twists and turns!
This moment.
Russell wanted to cry and laugh at the same time.
Is there anything else in the world that can connect humans and nature as smoothly as music? And what kind of life can ignite the desire to fight in one's heart, so that even if it is broken into pieces, it will still be able to survive
Facing such a song—
Just the first movement—
Russell couldn't help but applaud!
…
And in this brief moment of relief.
The performance of the second movement officially begins.
The cruel fate finally revealed itself. It repeated darkly and endlessly in various tones, spying on the gaps and looking for opportunities to break into people's lives and dominate everything about them.
then.
A clarion call sounded.
It seemed to be struggling.
Gradually, the intensity of the music weakened and the pitch ranges were frequently changed.
The tone was low and no longer stable, as if the voice was doubting and wavering about this endless struggle.
Sudden.
The theme of fate breaks in fiercely again, howling wildly, and ends in a climax of explosion.
…
Listening to such music is a supreme enjoyment!
Abigail was completely immersed in the music, and all the pores on her body were vying to relax!
When the soothing melody of the second movement came, the aftermath of the battle in the first movement seemed to be completely soothed.
Those relatively softer notes are like a gentle mother reaching out her hands to comfort her child who has just experienced a fierce battle.
No.
Abigail suddenly felt something.
This is not a one-man battle at all.
This is a battle of millions of people.
The picture that appeared in Abigail's mind suddenly changed.
He seemed to see several warriors who had fought together and began to imagine a better new world in the future after the great war. Although such music sounded gentle, it contained a silent and inspiring power within, as if constantly encouraging the soldiers to move forward.
This is the true face of "Symphony of Fate"!
After experiencing the intense struggle in the first movement, the audience got a moment of rest here, like a dose of healing medicine.
What a grand layout!
What a big ambition!
Abigail suddenly felt that she could no longer see through Lin Yuan!
"I might as well."
For the first time, Abigail was truly convinced and felt inferior to Xianyu!
…
Third movement.
A typical Allegro scherzo.
However, there was no trace of humor or banter in the Golden Hall.
The strong fighting spirit is rising!
The contrast of the staggered notes becomes stronger and stronger!
The soldiers picked up their weapons again and returned to the battlefield shrouded in dark clouds.
The atmosphere of the music suddenly changed from peaceful to dark, as if the warrior was approaching the god of fate step by step, stepping on the blood of the victims, constantly accumulating strength and courage.
The air is as heavy as the mountains.
The warrior did not stop.
There are mountains of swords and seas of fire ahead!
This is the third movement, which is actually somewhat similar to the first movement, but also has some indescribable changes.
Fate is like a wolf in a circle, a tiger in wait, waiting for its time to move.
Suddenly.
The oboe played a slow, sad note.
The tone seemed to be lamenting an unfortunate fate.
At the end of the third movement, man's struggle with fate becomes more intense.
At the beginning, the fate theme stands proudly with strong power and grand sound;
Then a horn-like tone sounded, which together with the ascending sound stream played by the violin formed a force to drive away bad luck.
However.
After several struggles, people still cannot escape the cruel and brutal fate, and the music ends this movement with the unyielding spirit of the fate theme.
…
Wang Luo seemed touched.
In a private room.
As the richest man on Blue Star, Wang Luo could handle business worth hundreds of billions without changing his expression, but at this moment his heart was beating like a drum!
Wang Luo understands music.
Born into an aristocratic family, he learned piano, violin and other instruments since childhood and has very good musical qualities.
now.
Wang Luo seemed to be talking to the secretary beside him, or he seemed to be talking to himself:
“This symphony tells a story of struggle. You can understand it as Xianyu’s unyielding struggle against fate; you can also understand it as everyone’s unyielding struggle against fate; but I always feel that it has a higher meaning, and the fourth movement will be the decisive battle!”
Magnificent!
fierce!
Vigorous!
Just like the blooming of the red spider lily!
The charm of the symphony blooms unrestrainedly!
The fourth movement has not yet begun, but Wang Luo is already amazed!
If he was half joking and half serious when he called himself Xianyu's idol during the previous interview with the reporter, then at this moment Wang Luo had completely become a fan of Xianyu!
Crazy fan!
And at this moment, Wang Luo is not the only one who has fallen in love with Xianyu because of "Symphony of Fate"!
…
It’s also a private room.
The girl with heavy makeup was leaning against her grandfather, smiling sweetly:
"If it's him, then it's not impossible."
This girl, who had shown disdain for the "army of socialites eager to get married" not long ago, now has changed her attitude.
The old man chuckled: "Change your mind?"
"I don't think I would dislike the person who wrote this song. Anyway, in a family like mine, it's hard to have an independent marriage. I might as well choose someone who's more pleasing to the eye."
The girl pouted.
The old man stroked his beard and said, "I heard that he had a blind date with Liu Xin before, but Liu Xin ran away."
"Liu Xin?"
The girl was stunned for a moment, then suddenly burst into laughter: "Grandpa, I want to marry him!"
"But I heard that Liu Xin regretted it after all."
The old man was calm and composed.
The girl became happier and happier: "Then I will marry him!"
The old man smiled.
Since I knew some secrets earlier than those old guys, could it be considered as abusing my power for personal gain
But I just added a little fuel to the flames.
Who can take down Lin Yuan will ultimately depend on the abilities of the younger generations from each family.
That unmarried and unrivaled young man of marriageable age, even if he only shows a glimpse of his talent, would be enough to make the elders in each family eager to package up the younger generation and offer him to him, right
And in the conversation.
No one's ears are idle.
The music continues, the fourth movement of "Symphony No. 5" unfolds immediately following the third movement!
The final decisive battle!
…
Fourth movement.
Allegro sonata form.
The delicate and hazy timbre was replaced by a brilliant and victorious sound.
Magnificent!
magnificent!
This is the first impression given by the fourth movement!
Almost from the first note, a clear answer was given.
This is the horn of victory!
Light shines in every corner!
In this rich and diverse chapter, heroes are triumphant!
Three trombones in the middle, a piccolo at the top and a contrabassoon at the bottom fully enrich this victory song with emotions of jubilation, brightness and victory!
In a positive atmosphere.
The melody moves forward relentlessly.
The clear rhythm, extensive use of chords and strong, full sound make the heroic image created by the entire symphony shine brightly!
Who is the winner
It’s the envious fish, the audience, and everyone who has fought unyieldingly, even those who have risked their lives for human peace!
This moment!
Yang Zhongming, who had been listening to the music silently, couldn't help but clap his hands lightly, and then gradually clap harder!
"How do you rate it?"
Zheng Jing next to him couldn't help but speak.
Zheng Jing was still not satisfied: "From the conflict and struggle in the first movement to the victory and joy in the last movement, the last movement is the climax of the whole piece and can be called the finishing touch. It is not only longer and more powerful than the first movement, but also fully echoes the whole piece in conception."
From C minor to C major.
The notes themselves are full of genius design.
Lu Sheng looked at Yang Zhongming again, but Old Yang just clapped his hands and gave four words without thinking:
Shake the world!
Lu Sheng and Zheng Jing looked at each other and nodded seriously.
…
The symphony, which was described by Yang Zhongming as "earth-shaking", also made the whole audience boil!
It is indeed earth-shaking!
This Golden Hall, known as one of the five major concert halls on the Blue Star, always makes every band that performs in it feel extremely proud and proud, and it also allows every composer whose work is performed on this stage to hold his head high.
But this night.
It’s not that I’m proud of the Golden Hall.
On the contrary, it is the Golden Hall that is proud of Xianyu's symphony.
People will never forget that the premiere of "Symphony No. 5" was held in the Golden Hall, just as anyone who has heard this piece of music will have a deep memory of the four consecutive tragic and powerful notes at the beginning.
Lin Yuan walked onto the stage and took his bow with the band.
Wei Shujing whispered to Lin Yuan: "You will become famous all over the world tonight."
Lin Yuan laughed: "Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Wei, but I have always been quite famous."
“This time is different.”
Wei Shujing looked at Lin Yuan deeply.
With fate as the theme, I am afraid no one else in the world can write such a song.
This is not just Wei Shujing's opinion, but also the thoughts of every audience member in the audience.
"Oh My God!"
"My whole body felt numb, like an electric current. I got goosebumps just from listening to it!"
“This song is so amazing!!”
"This may be my favorite music in my life. If nothing unexpected happens, I will never change my mind and fall in love with something else!"
“You are indeed my favorite musician!”
“It turns out that only by understanding the Symphony of Fate can one truly understand Xianyu.”
“Refuse any compromise and fight fate to the end. This is the true meaning of my own destiny. Suffering is indeed the best nutrient for genius.”
"This is an incomparably magnificent work. This is Xianyu's main meal. It's even crazier than last night!"
“He has been deified!”
"In my heart, Xianyu has become a deity!"
“This Symphony No. 5 is the best symphony I have ever heard!”
All right.
The official name of this piece is "Symphony No. 1 in C minor".
However, everyone seems to prefer the more down-to-earth name "Symphony of Fate".
Because this name will remind people of Xianyu's fate, and the spirit of fighting against darkness without compromise and always striving forward...
And with the end of the premiere.
Outside the Golden Hall.
The reporters who had been waiting for a long time were already thirsty and impatient!
However, Lin Yuan, who had just finished his debut performance of "Symphony of Fate", did not know that everyone had already completely linked this song to his personal experience.
But this can be considered a blessing in disguise.
Beethoven wrote "Symphony No. 5" because of his ill-fated fate and similar experience to Xianyu, so this connection is not far-fetched.
As for someone who has a higher interpretation...
That is inevitable, but it is no longer Lin Yuan's responsibility to explain. Let a thousand Hamlets use their imagination.
