The English name of the waltz is "waltz", if it is transliterated, it is a waltz.
As a dance music, the waltz is generally melodious and light, and has changed into many forms since its development in the 18th century. Among them, the origin of the Vienna-Waltz is the most traditional and authentic.
At first, Mozart wrote fifty short and powerful "German Dances", and then Schubert made more than two hundred warm and famous waltzes on this basis. After Strauss and his son made improvements, Vienna waltzes truly Into the world's vision, let the whole world set off such a warm and jubilant waltz style.
Viennese people like waltz very much, to what extent? Presumably at any concert of a local orchestra in Vienna, if more than two waltzes are not played, the concert is a failure.
And this "Blue Danube" is the most classic existence in the hearts of Viennese.
"The Blue Danube", formerly known as "On the Beautiful Blue Danube", is known as the second national anthem of Austria. The rhythm is harmonious and the notes are varied, and each active musical note is like a shining wave on the Danube, glowing with the brilliant brilliance of a diamond.
Such a song that everyone is familiar with, it is natural to play it beautifully, but if it is played well in junior high school, it will be even more difficult!
The more popular the rhythm is, the harder it is for people to feel the highlights in the music. Before the end of the rehearsal every afternoon at the Parleson Theater, the whole orchestra will play "Blue Danube" together. Their piano sounds are dignified and atmospheric, but for the old audience of Parleison, not much has changed over the years. .
Today, in the splendid concert hall, the violin is playing at a very soft pitch, and everyone's bow is drawn at a very low frequency, which vividly depicts the situation of the spring breeze blowing the Danube and all things waiting for the dawn to wake up.
On such a stage, most of the audience's eyes focused on the young man at the forefront of the team.
The young man who was standing beside the podium just now was looking down slightly at the moment, looking at his left hand carefully. His left hand was slender and thin, pressing on the strings at an extremely fast frequency, but his right hand pulled the bow with a very cautious range, playing a gesture of nervous anticipation.
In the past, the Parison Theater was full for a month in a row, and many old audiences knew it, and even many of them contributed countless performance tickets to the theater. At this moment, their ears are listening to the beautiful and moving music, and their eyes are focused on the young people on the stage.
Oh, such an audio-visual feast combined with ears and eyes is really good!
No wonder the venue was full before!
When blond hair and blue eyes filled most of Europe, a young Chinese man with black hair and black eyes really seemed like a breath of fresh air, making them feel the subtle and elegant oriental beauty. This young man has handsome and delicate eyebrows, elegant conversation, and calm temperament. I really like it!
What's more, he can play such a wonderful tune!
In "Blue Danube", the theme B of the second waltz was originally supposed to be an ensemble piece in B-flat major, singing the scene of girls laughing and playing under the Alps in a graceful and euphemistic tone.
But in Mr. Walls' arrangement, just after Theme A ended, the whole orchestra fell silent, only the flute was still playing softly.
In the surprise of the audience, a brisk and joyful violin splendidly sounded!
The dazzling and outstanding young man danced the bow and performed a completely different "Blue Danube" with great skill!
Originally, "Blue Danube", as a waltz with extremely low difficulty, can be played freely by almost anyone who has studied the violin for more than three years. This song does not want to suppress the musicians with super difficulty, but wants to pass the wonderful melody to everyone.
And at this moment, the difficult bow jumping like magic made the audience in an uproar!
They stared blankly at the handsome young man playing attentively and earnestly. His fingers seemed to have life, and they danced like butterflies. Although the fingering is simple, the difficult skills of the right hand make people sigh. Before the audience can accept it, only the next second...
The young man's left hand plucked the strings!
Left-handed plucking, this can already be regarded as a skill at the performance level.
They've never seen such gorgeous dazzling tricks! No... I've never seen someone play "The Blue Danube" in such a dazzling manner!
The lightness that should have been expressed by the trumpet, now played by the violin alone, is not abrupt at all, but is more soft and moving, which is in line with the softness of the girls; the intense enthusiasm that should have been performed by the cornet is now It is deduced by the violin's right hand jumping the bow, but it is even more shy of a girl!
Such a brilliant change, it is almost impossible for people to say a "no", and they can only listen in jaw-dropping! Look!
A ten-year-old little girl stared at the most outstanding big brother on the stage, pulled her mother's sleeve, and whispered, "Mummy, this doesn't seem to be "The Blue Danube"... "
"Shh!!!"
The young mother immediately covered her daughter's small mouth and continued to listen carefully to the performance in the concert hall.
When the whole song ended, the mother sighed, then released her right hand and clapped. Before she could move her hand away, she suddenly felt a drop of ice-cold liquid dripping onto the back of her hand, and looked down again: "Oh God! My baby, don't cry, don't cry, Mommy still loves you!"
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuy Mommy wants to listen to "Blue Danube", don't want me anymore... "
This performance was just a small episode in the auditorium. When the young mother handed the little bunny doll from the theater to her daughter to play with, the child's crying stopped abruptly and burped loudly.
The mother couldn't help but sigh: The Parison Theater is so prescient! ! !
Under the stage, everyone stood up together, neatly and warmly applauded. On the stage, Qi Mu and Mr. Walls exchanged a hug, smiled and bowed to the audience together.
When Mr. Walls stepped off the podium, a light and crisp "Encore" suddenly sounded off the field, and then, under the leadership of the small audience, the "Encore" rolled like a tide swept across the field. The entire concert hall seems to be about to lift the ceiling!
In this regard, Mr. Walls turned his head to look at Qi Mu, and the young man raised his lips slightly, revealing a confident and gentle smile. Then, the two went back to their place.
Qi Mu sat in the chief seat, and saw Mr. Walls turn around and bow to the audience, and then... he raised the baton!
The sound of encores off the field has gradually subsided, and everyone could not restrain their inner joy, waiting for the band to bring them breakthrough surprises.
And obviously, the next Johann Strauss Jr.'s "Vienna Woods March" really didn't let them down. The warm and moving melody and brisk and clear music brought the concert to a perfect conclusion and won roaring and long-lasting applause.
Off the stage, many music critics who originally only regarded it as a necessary task and went back to write a music review have forgotten their original intentions and applauded from the bottom of their hearts. And the other old parisons were even more excited about the progress of the ensemble.
There were even some old gentlemen like Mr. De Langte who had a relationship with this theater for decades, and their eyes were red. From such a unique Christmas Eve concert, they seemed to see the future of this theater, and saw a better and better tomorrow for this theater!
-Even if I can't witness your brilliance, but when I sleep in the ground, you still stand in the world!
In the spacious and bright concert hall, countless audience members were talking and leaving the venue, with happy smiles on their faces, and even when they walked out of the theater, they didn't care about the cold outside.
It was the most wonderful Christmas Eve concert they had ever heard, and for the first time they felt that they loved the theatre, the happiest thing in the world.
In the backstage of the theater, the musicians returned to the backstage with their own scores, and only the staff were left to clean up the seats, piano stands and podium on the stage.
When Qi Mu and Mr. Walls returned to the backstage together, before he could stand firm, he saw a red ocean rushing around him, and he shouted happily: "Mr. Walls, Xiao Qi! It's safe! Happy night!!!"
Mr. Walls smiled and took out his mascot - Rabbit Little Seven from his pocket. He smiled and pinched the long red ears and said, "Lovely children, I also wish you all peace - peace. Happy night!" After a pause, Mr. Walls said again: "I want to thank you for your hard work during this period of time. It was your hard work that brought this successful concert today. You are all the credits!"
The band burst into laughter.
Mr. Walls waved the rabbit Xiaoqi in his hand and said, "I want to be with our lovely Xiaoqi, thank you for your hard work during this time!" After that, Mr. Walls also called Xiaoqi (rabbit) The two arms were pulled, and a shy expression appeared.
Qi Mu: "..."
It seems that Mr. Walls has brought about such a craze of "playing games with Xiaoqi". After the concert, everyone in the orchestra played tirelessly for a long time, and they looked full of interest.
Only the corner of Qi Mu's mouth twitched slightly and took a few steps to the side, trying to distance himself from this group of people.
But before he could sneak away any longer, he heard the orchestra manager Litto who walked in from outside the lounge opened the door in surprise, walked in, and shouted happily, "Hey, mates! I saw a guy outside just now. Important guest! Do you know who it is?"
Hearing this, Qi Mu was stunned for a moment, only to hear Mr. Walls smile and say, "Little, don't sway everyone's appetite, is that our old friend, the music critic Zaranxi?"
I saw Lit shaking his head mysteriously, and laughed: "No, no, it's not Zaranxi. Zaranxi just told me excitedly that he has to go back to write a music review. For tonight's music Yes, he has 10,000 words to write! And now standing outside this door... well, Nellie, someone you like! Let me hint... this is a conductor..."
Nali screamed, "Oh my God!!!"
