Anton Dvorak was one of the greatest Czech composers of the nineteenth century.
The music master who experienced the Czech national revival movement published his first musical work at the age of 18, and wrote the famous "The Bells of Zignes" at the age of 24. Since then, he has composed countless compositions in his life, making great and glorious contributions to the splendid culture of classical music.
Like the name of the Symphony No. 9 in E minor, it is clear that this is Dvorak's Ninth Symphony.
This piece is a symphony composed by Dvorak when he was the dean of the New York Conservatory of Music in the United States. Almost as long as the name "Dvorak" is mentioned, everyone will think of this "Ninth Symphony" ".
This song also has an alias called "From the New World".
This is a symphony full of hope and light, with a passionate melody and an indomitable theme. For hundreds of years, it has inspired countless warriors who have struggled with darkness and inspired them to never give up.
When he heard the name of this piece, Qi Mu suddenly realized, "Are you going to perform the fourth movement?"
At this time, the elevator door had opened, and a few people walked out together, only to see Hu Ke nodded and said: "Yes, Xiao Qi, we finally chose the fourth movement. Everyone has no doubts about the choice of the music, but the lineup of instruments is not. There are many different opinions."
When it came to this, everyone had already walked to a solid wood door. Hook, who was very happy just now, was already sad, he sighed heavily and said, "Mr. Dorensa, Mr. Tuckerman, Mo Mr. Thor, and Xiao Qi... I don't need to say more, you will probably understand when you go in. "
As soon as the words fell, in the surprised expression of everyone, Mr. Hook pressed the door handle as if resigned, and then gently opened the door. First of all, the door just opened a slit, and it seemed that a little sound came out, and when the slit got bigger and bigger...
The sound wave, which almost formed a solid body, rushed out of the door!
"French, trumpet and clarinet, "Ninth" is the theme of wind instruments, if we want to match our anniversary theme, there must be a concession from one party! 'Night of Strings' is our promotion this time The main point of the promotion has been publicized for so long, how can the theme suddenly change?!"
"But which orchestra have you seen that dare to use stringed instruments to perform "The Ninth"? Dali, don't take it for granted, you dare to say that you have heard someone perform "The Ninth" with stringed instruments?!!"
"So what do you think, Luca? At the end of the concert, let's finish off with a brass-themed tune? God, 'Night of Strings' on posters and tickets, Strings Instruments Can't you see?!"
"Then you can tell me now, what are you going to use instead of the horn? Instead of the trumpet? Instead of the clarinet?!"
…
I saw that in the spacious and bright conference hall, the lights were shining brightly, and the windows were bright and clean. A ten-meter-long conference table divided the entire New Philharmonic Orchestra into two parts. Both parties insisted on their own opinions and were arguing fiercely, and neither was willing to let the other step.
In the center of the conference table, sitting in the middle of the conference table is Mr. Swell, who is smiling indifferently. Seeing this gentle and gentle conductor, Qi Mu suddenly remembered: "Hu Ke, how could New Ai have a dispute? Is there anyone in the world who has the heart to refuse Mr. Swell's proposal?"
After hearing this, the bearded chief said with a complicated expression: "Yes, Xiao Qi, I don't think anyone would have the heart to refuse Mr. Swell. But... Suppose Mr. Swell thinks their proposals are pretty good?"
Qi Mu: "..."
After arguing for a while, someone finally discovered the arrival of Qi Mu and the others. Mr. Swell was very happy and gave his old friends a warm hug, and when he saw Qi Mu, the smile on his face became even brighter: "I really didn't expect that two years later. Goodbye... Under such circumstances. Xiao Qi, it's a pleasure to see you again."
After hugging, Qi Mu replied with a smile, "I'm also very happy to meet you, Mr. Swell."
After a few chats, Mr. Swell greeted Qi Mu and the four to sit down at the conference table. Qi Mu had just pulled out the chair and hadn't settled down when he heard someone shouting loudly: "Well, Master Dorenza is here! Master Dorenza has a deeper understanding of "The Ninth" than us, let's ask What does Master Dorenza think!"
"Okay, okay, let's ask Master Dorenza for his opinion."
"Oh, Mr. Dorenza must agree with us that there are people in the world who delusionally play the theme of "The Ninth" on a stringed instrument? It's ridiculous."
"Is that what you say, Luca? I said Mr. Dorenza would agree with us!"
"Then let's see, Daly! What do you think we should do, Mr. Dorenza?"
As soon as these words landed, everyone's eyes in New Love turned to Mr. Dorensa, who had just sat firmly. Even Swell nodded with interest and looked at Dorensa, who was sitting beside him, as if waiting for the other party's answer.
Stressed Mr. Toronto: "… "
After a long while, the gentle and kind master wiped the sweat oozing from his forehead and asked tentatively, "First of all, can someone tell me... what happened?"
Next, Hook took the initiative to explain this "Dispute Incident from the New World" from beginning to end.
Indeed, no one would object to choosing this positive and lively melody "From the New World" as the finale of the concert. The song is uplifting, it's perfect to encourage people to work hard, and it fits with Mr. Swell's idea of "playing for the victims of Utah."
However, the problem is precisely in this song "From the New World".
All the members of New Love have tacitly decided to use the fourth movement of "From the New World" as the performance repertoire. However, there is a problem. In the fourth movement, the main theme is performed by the horn and the trumpet. , and the sub-theme is the clarinet - all in all, wind instruments.
On the publicity posters and tickets that New Love has long released, the theme of this concert is printed in large fonts: the night of stringed instruments.
A concert with the theme of "stringed instruments" ended with a tune on the theme of wind instruments
Not to mention what the audience will think at that time, even Qi Mu thinks it is too inappropriate!
After listening to Hook's explanation, Mr. Dorenza frowned in embarrassment and said, "The choice of music is good, the theme of the concert is also good, there is really nothing to change, and there is indeed a conflict. Then... What do you think, Swell?"
Mr. Swell said bluntly: "If I had any good proposals, Toronto, I wouldn't have been waiting for you."
Mr. Dorensa, who was actually put together by an old friend: "..."
Being stared at by nearly a hundred pairs of eyes from all of New Love, even Mr. Dorensa began to feel troubled. Even Aberk Dorenza couldn't think of a solution for something that could keep a big band quarreling for a long time.
The gray eyebrows are getting tighter and tighter, just as he was thinking, Mr. Dorensa suddenly caught a shadow in the corner of his vision. A flash of light flashed in his mind, and he asked, "Xiao Qi, you young people have many ideas, what advice do you have?"
As soon as the words came out, all the dark eyes turned to Qi Mu again.
Qi Mu, whose smile was completely frozen at the corners of his mouth: "..."
Is there such a thing as you, Mr. Dorenza! ! !
Under such strong pressure (dozens of eyes watching), Qi Mu thought about it for a long time, then pulled out a smile with difficulty: "Indeed, the theme has already been publicized, so it can't be changed, but it has never been used by anyone. String instruments have played the theme of the fourth movement of "From the New World"..."
"Xiao Qi, have you come up with a solution?" Hu Ke said in surprise.
Qi Mu: "..." Where did you see that he came up with a solution!
Depressed in his heart, Qi Mu opened his mouth and planned to admit that "I really have nothing to do", but the next second he was stunned, and suddenly recalled a very familiar scene in his mind. It seems that there was once a group of quarrelsome orchestra members in the conference hall of a theater who were anxious to get some kind of innovation, and then they chose...
"Isn't it really possible to use stringed instruments instead of wind instruments?"
The young man's suddenly high voice made everyone stunned, only to see this handsome and beautiful young man with a smile and raised his lips under the bright and warm sunlight, and began to narrate a story: "Mr. Swell, Mr. Dorensa , before I worked at Viai, I was the principal of the orchestra at the Palaisen Theater in Vienna. Our theater holds a concert every Christmas Eve, and last year, we faced such a problem... "
When Qi Mu finished speaking, Mr. Dorenza nodded heavily: "Yes, Xiao Qi, I still remember the time you used the violin solo instead of the vocals to sing. Ode, I have a hard time believing you guys could come up with such a creative adaptation."
With Mr. Dorensa's approval, other New Zealanders who were still skeptical were relieved.
I saw Qi Mu continue to explain with a smile: "Yes, Mr. Dorensa, since the violin can sing in place of the human voice, then... why can't stringed instruments replace wind instruments? We are currently facing only two questions. First, how to Arrangement? Second, what lineup of string instruments should be used instead of wind instruments?”
Mr. Swell nodded slightly: "Well, you are right."
"From the New World is about a positive and optimistic mood and a high-spirited momentum. Indeed, wind instruments can express this more easily."
"But one violin is not enough, what about two? What about a viola and a cello?"
"Without taking the first step, no one will know what the next situation will be. Maybe ... it's actually very easy."
