In the grand and majestic concert hall of the Opera House, the lights are brilliant, focusing on the stage, lighting up the appearance of this famous opera orchestra.

Dozens of people sat neatly in their seats, violin, viola, cello...the bow was drawn, trumpet, medium, trombone, clarinet...all the musical instruments sang in unison, the majestic but not solemn "Virgin Mary" Song" rose melodiously.

"Ave Maria" is a piece by Schubert, the early representative of classical romanticism.

Many people in the world know that Mozart's life is short, with only a short life span of 35 years, but he left behind thousands of world-famous songs. But few people know that, in fact, Schubert's life-

Only 31 short years.

In this very short 31 years, the talented music master has written more than 600 songs, 18 operas, 10 symphonies and more.

God is never fair, he favors his beloved human beings. He devoted countless efforts to stalwart geniuses such as Mozart and Schubert, letting them bring heavenly music to the world, but he cherished them and wanted to bring them back to heaven early.

And this "Ave Maria" has inherited the preference of the Viennese who like waltzes the most. The tune is gentle and lingering, as if a mother gently stroked your cheek with a gentle hand, delicate and soft, giving you a small cradle slowly shake.

Old audiences at the Parison Theatre who have listened to "Ave Maria" for more than ten years are naturally familiar with this song to the core. They can even learn that Mr. Walls likes to have a harp in a ditty at the end of the first stanza, and that the female chorus is unique to the Pallison Theatre.

But this time, what they didn't expect at all was... The principal violin actually stood on the left side of the conductor Mr. Walls, with no intention of returning to his seat!

An old man sitting in the front row sternly looked at the young man who was standing on the stage and did not play through thick presbyopic glasses. He was white-haired, with his hands folded on the crutches in front of him, and if anyone in the Parison had seen him, he would have exclaimed, "Oh! My dear Mr. Derant!"

De Langte is a loyal audience of the Parisien Theater. As an authentic Viennese, De Langte has followed his parents since the age of four and came to the Parisien Theater to enjoy the operas that are shown every week.

This old gentleman is in his 70s this year, his health is not very good, and he does not know how many times he will be able to come to the theater in the future, but he is really an old man who has watched the Parison Theater come to what it is today, and his qualifications are probably better than Hua Mr. Russ, they are even deeper.

At this moment, Mr. De Langte's sophisticated eyes were fixed on the young man on the left side of the stage.

In the operas in the past few months, he also heard that the performance level of the theater orchestra is very good. Although he rarely saw the newly appointed Principal, Mr. De Langte couldn't help but have a little doubt about Qi Mu. .

Can such a young child really be the chief of a good Parison

And now, this apparently adapted "Ave Maria" has also made Mr. De Langte pay more attention to this handsome young man. He wanted to see how capable this weak-looking child was, and what a brilliant "Ave Maria" can be shown!

Qi Mu was unaware of Mr. Derant's fiery and fiery gaze under the stage. He listened carefully to every sound in the orchestra behind him, from the sound of the timpani farthest away to the sound of the violinist closest to him.

Mr. Walls raised the baton lightly, and after another slide of stringed instruments, Qi Mu raised his right hand, placed his bow lightly on the strings, and turned his head to look at Hua, who was beside him. Mrs.

The next second, Mr. Walls looked at him with encouraging expectant eyes.

Suddenly, the bright and comfortable violin sound came out slowly!

When the sound of the violin appeared, there was a burst of surprise in the audience. The surprised low voice quickly disappeared in the quiet concert hall, and everyone carefully appreciated the violin version of the vocal singing brought by the chief.

The sound of the piano was soft and beautiful, as if the holy light had descended, standing on the clouds and spreading the radiance of benevolence all over the earth. Behind the sound of the piano, it is not completely bright, and there is also a trace of pain, but the continuous singing in the high-pitched area suppresses such a short-lived hidden pain behind the optimistic and positive background, which makes people feel happy.

The whole orchestra accompanies behind this wonderful violin sound. If the music of the orchestra is like a child chanting softly, then this unique violin sound is like a beautiful and gentle woman who sings a moving tune with the most charming smile. , while reaching out to give you a hug.

No matter how indifferent and cold-blooded people are, when they hear such a song "Ave Maria", they can't help but move.

This is Schubert's work, short but delightful.

This is also the sound of Qingyue from the ensemble of the Parison Theater, giving people the most unbearable joy.

This is the young chief who stands at the forefront of the orchestra, interpreting the wonderful sounds of nature with the smooth and moving violin sound!

Under the stage, everyone was immersed in such a quiet and beautiful atmosphere, unable to extricate themselves. Only Mr. De Langte, who was sitting in the first row, slowly loosened his frown and showed a smile of praise.

No wonder the choir that had been standing behind the orchestra in previous years suddenly disappeared. It turned out that the voice of the violin replaced the charm of human singing!

This kind of adaptation is too good, and it is very difficult!

The human voice is not the sound of musical instruments, it is very easy to express the ups and downs of emotions, especially the voice of a whole choir, which expands the feelings of each person a hundred times, far from "1 + 1 = 2" Effect.

But... the sound of this child's piano is comparable to the chorus of the past few years!

Mr. De Langte nodded in relief, and his pupils trembled slightly as he listened to the rest of the music in the orchestra.

This band is growing so fast!

They can use the most suitable and appropriate music to play a moving "Ave Maria" with their chief! Such a speed of progress is something that Mr. De Langte has not seen in the past 70 years! It reminded him of the only person in the band who changed...

Mr. De Langte looked at the young man standing in front of the stage: Could it be because of him? !

If a principal is of a high level, it can only be said to be an excellent principal; but if a principal can influence and change his orchestra, then this is an extraordinary principal!

If this child really brought such a big change to the band, Mr. De Langte really wanted this child to stay here forever.

It's a pity that he also knows that what such an outstanding kid needs is a more powerful stage, and Pareson can only give him so much - Pareson can't keep him.

But M. De Langte still smiled softly: either this way or this way. This kid has got off to a good start for the band, and maybe when he dies in a few years, the theater will get better and better! It's a shame he may not see that day...

In the huge concert hall, the music is full of music, which is intoxicating. When the entire orchestra played the last note, the entire field suddenly became quiet, and only the soft and gentle sound of the violin at the front was heard.

It is like a ray of spring breeze, blowing through everyone's heart.

When such a moving melody ended, the audience was shocked and did not return to their senses. Only an old man with white hair sitting in front of the crowd stood up tremblingly with a cane and clapped his hands. , while shouting vigorously: "Bravo!"

The next moment, the roaring applause seemed to overturn the roof!

In the place where the lights condensed, Qi Mu and the conductor Mr. Walls shook hands with a smile, and then bowed to the stage together. When Qi Mu returned to the lead violinist's seat and sat down, the applause had been ringing for more than five minutes before it slowly ceased.

Although the applause has stopped, the audience off the field is even more excited.

They are looking forward to the different performances that this band will bring to them!

No one knows what wonderful musical effects the next "Emperor's Waltz" will produce!

If Schubert is the pride of the Viennese, then the Strauss and his son are undoubtedly their most revered great man!

This "Emperor Waltz" by Johann Strauss Jr. is the bedside music of many audiences, even in Vienna's cafes, restaurants, squares, churches... You can hear this gentle song everywhere Beautiful waltz.

On the stage, Mr. Walls raised the baton lightly, and the familiar sound of the piano suddenly rose.

The brisk and clear beating notes roamed throughout the concert hall, and the gentle and delicate music seemed to be children playing on the street, which made the audience under the stage couldn't help but raise their mouths, and even some active young audience were still amused. He waved his small fist and moved the little rabbit in his hand.

After the end of the prologue, the music that gradually became serious and serious gradually flowed out, depicting a magnificent scene for the audience. It seems that we have returned to medieval Europe hundreds of years ago. The great emperor is waiting to take the throne. Young men and women from all over the country are excitedly dancing on the dance floor to congratulate the new emperor.

This is the most classic Viennese waltz style. It is solemn yet lively, solemn yet light. It is full of Viennese feelings, and it is enthusiastic and vivid. It depicts the beautiful scene when the Austrian emperor ascended the throne.

This is their own Austrian music, and the audience listened with smiles, and many even tapped the melody with their fingers on the handle of the chair.

When the last familiar tail sound lands, there is no need for any leadership, and the audience stands up and applauds in unison, giving back their joy and excitement to this outstanding orchestra!

If "Ave Maria" brought them an unexpected surprise, then "Emperor's Waltz" calmed the slightly excited mood in the venue just now, and also allowed the audience to calm down and wait for the last one. performance of the first song.

On the stage, after thanking the audience for their applause, Qi Mu raised his head and looked at Mr. Walls.

The next second, the young man's fingers gently pressed the strings.

The entire audience held their breaths, this song is—

"the blue Danube"!
