As a rising star in classical music, Huaxia's development on this road in the past two years has exceeded many people's expectations. Two years ago, Bai Ai's orchestra manager Daniel once said that the rapid development of classical music in China is truly astounding.
Just like the rapid economic development of China in the past three or four years, classical music has gained an unimaginable rise in this sleepy land. Especially in the past year, well-known musicians from China have become famous The world, people have to marvel at how terrifying the talent reserve of this ancient country is.
Min Chen was one of them, and Qi Mu was also one of them.
For example, when these two people are about to lead the Huaxia Philharmonic Orchestra to perform at the Golden Hall of Vienna, not to mention those Western music fans who are in high spirits, even the overseas students and staff of Huaxia are all excited to grab tickets directly , which quickly sold out those tickets.
Some Western music fans who have been prepared for a long time have just pressed the button to grab tickets, and the webpage will directly pop up the pop-up window: [Sorry, the tickets you purchased have been sold out. ] Western music fans who have not experienced Double Eleven: "… "
Black Friday isn't that scary, is it? ! !
Therefore, when Huaai's Vienna concert was about to start, under the magnificent marble building, many oriental faces appeared in the crowd. They dressed formally and behaved elegantly, which made many people unable to bear it. The residence looked sideways.
The dazzling lights illuminated the building of the Friends of Music Association tonight. Countless black-haired and black-eyed Chinese people dressed in beautiful dresses calmly stepped on the red carpet and walked into this splendid Roman-style building.
There are many Chinese people in the West, but it is rare to see so many Chinese people entering and leaving the same place, so many people also looked at it in surprise. Some people even sighed silently in their hearts: They are really Chinese people who conquered the world...
And these are all unknown to the musicians who are preparing nervously in the back of the stage at the moment.
This afternoon's rehearsal was very successful. Even Min Chen, who has always been critical, didn't say too many accusations and corrections, so the members were also confident. But when they were actually going to perform, some younger and less experienced musicians shivered a little at the thought that the concert would be broadcast live by National Channel 1.
And when they thought about the legendary golden hall they were about to board, even some of the more experienced old members were sweating on their foreheads, and they were a little worried about the next performance.
Qi Mu naturally understands their psychology very well. Don't say it's them, even when he himself stepped into the golden hall for the first time as the chief to prepare to play, he was very nervous, and he managed to suppress the worries in his heart with reason.
So, seeing these members who endured their nervousness and kept their heads down, Qi Mu simply clapped his hands and said with a smile, "Don't be nervous, our rehearsal this afternoon was very successful, and the concert at night only needs to maintain With our normal standards, there won't be any problems." As he spoke, Qi Mu also poked the calm man next to him, "Besides, don't you believe in Min Chen?"
As soon as Qi Mu finished speaking, he raised his eyes and looked at the man beside him. I saw that the latter was still watching casually and gracefully, but suddenly aware of the young man's gaze, he coughed twice, and then said, "Well, you are not stupid enough to have a big car accident that collectively forgets the sound... Hiss …”
Qi Mu smiled and moved his feet away from the man's instep.
At this moment, the members of Hua Ai have long been laughing, and there is no more nervous atmosphere.
During this week's training, they had already discovered that as long as their serious and demanding conductors encountered this lovely and gentle violinist, they would wilt like frosted cabbage. Many musicians even sighed in private: "Mr. Min and Xiaoqi have a really good relationship!"
Of course, only Sheng Yanhui kept the secret silently, watching these two people show their love in public every day like a blind dog, and everyone still looked like "Oh, this is really a great friendship"!
I am too tired to speak.
…
Probably because this episode of Qi Mu and Min Chen was too amusing, the members who were ready in the backstage all chatted and laughed with ease, and there was no longer an atmosphere of depression and tension.
When it was time to go on stage, they walked past Qi Mu and Min Chen one by one, and after praising each other, they stepped onto the stage in an orderly manner.
From the members of the first percussion group, to the trumpet group, the trombone group, the horn group... all the way to the second violin group, the first violin group. When Sheng Yanhui and Qi Mu nodded and went to the stage, Hua Ai's chief Chen Zheng also greeted him and Min Chen before walking onto the stage.
In an instant, apart from one or two staff members in the backstage, the nearly 100 people who had just left had already walked away, leaving only Qi Mu and Min Chen standing closest to the stage, ignoring each other.
Outside a thick red curtain, there was a monstrous applause. The surging applause like the tide expressed the sincere expectation of the audience, and sent the most sincere blessings to the musicians who came from far away from the east.
Compared with the bright lights on the stage, the light in the backstage is obviously slightly darker. Qi Mu held his violin in his left hand. He raised his head to look at the man beside him, only to see that the latter was looking down at him. The two looked at each other for a long time, and Qi Mu smiled lightly.
"This is my first time working with you at a concert, Min Chen."
The handsome and elegant man hooked his thin lips with a light smile, gave a soft "um", and nodded, "This is the beginning."
Qi Mu also raised the corners of his lips: "Well, we will definitely have more opportunities in the future."
The two hugged gently, and the hot temperature passed along the thin clothes. In the eyes of other staff members, such an ordinary and simple hug was just an act of encouragement and had no profound meaning. However, when Min Chen was about to turn around and take the stage, there was a tacit lightness in the palms of the two of them. A light tick, but it contains infinite ambiguity and beauty.
As the specially invited conductor of Hua Ai, Min Chen stepped onto the stage before Qi Mu.
When this tall and noble man appeared on the stage, the applause suddenly increased several octaves, and some people even cheered excitedly. Music fans from China are excited because this person is Min Chen, while other Western music fans know that Min Chen is from China, but they are more familiar with his other name—
Auston von Bertram.
This name represents the most perfect and moving music!
This name is the most powerful guarantee for an excellent concert!
On the splendid stage, Min Chen walked steadily to the podium. However, he did not immediately board the podium, but turned to look behind the curtain, gently stretched out his hand, bent slightly, and made a gentlemanly invitation.
The next second, a handsome and beautiful young man appeared on the stage!
"Qi Mu!!!"
"Little Seven!"
"Min Chen!!!!"
There were overly excited fans shouting in ecstasy that they had come to Vienna from China in order to hear a concert by this young man and that man.
Two years ago, the name Min Chen represented the highest level of Chinese classical music. Whether among composers, conductors or pianists, this name is what all musicians look up to, and they are proud of this man.
And now, another Chinese man has come to a place where he is shoulder to shoulder with this man!
Qi Mudan walked onto the stage with a smile and gave the man a brief hug in front of the crowd. This hug was different from the sneaky hug in the backstage just now. It was just a hug of "wishful cooperation between the specially invited musicians and conductors", without too deep meaning.
But even so, many audience members applauded excitedly and sent their heartfelt blessings to these two outstanding musicians and the outstanding orchestra behind them with thunderous applause.
When Min Chen and Qi Mu turned to face the audience together and led the entire orchestra to bow together, the roaring applause gradually subsided a lot.
At this moment, Min Chen also stepped onto the podium, holding the silver baton placed on the shelf. Qi Mu, on the other hand, walked to the front of the orchestra and stood on the left side of the podium, then calmly put the violin on his shoulders, then turned to look at the man standing on the podium.
Under the dazzling spotlight, it was a golden stage. On this stage, the nearly 100-member symphony orchestra is almost all young faces, full of vigor. They were wearing uniform black close-fitting dresses, not a suit, but a Tang suit that imitated a suit!
Exquisite and delicate jade-white buttons, plackets and cuffs bordered with gold thread, and the gorgeousness hidden under the black attracted everyone's attention. The costumes of the band members are gorgeous enough, but as conductors and violinists, Min Chen and Qi Mu's costumes are even more difficult to look away from!
I saw that under the light, the young man's fair and beautiful face was like white jade, but after it was matched with the deep black, it was even more radiant. Starting from the fragile and high collarbone, this dress formed a great contrast with the band members behind him—
It was a silver dragon hovering about to fly. It was the exquisite Suzhou embroidery that the most skilled embroiderer spent three days embroidering with silver thread stitch by stitch. The silver dragon circled from the young man's fair neck, and ended up hiding at his left waist. In addition, the full outfit has no tricks, but that alone is enough to make people amazed.
Similar to Qi Mu's dress, Min Chen's dress has a long golden dragon.
The long dragon wants to fly, soars for nine days. The dragon body with one gold and one silver seems to burn people's eyes, and it is unparalleled in beauty.
In the silent admiration of the whole room, Qi Mu gently placed the bow on the strings. At the moment when his eyes met that handsome and noble conductor, in the peaceful and quiet concert hall, a sentence suddenly echoed in everyone's heart—
This is really a beautiful painting!
The next second, the man on the podium twitched his thin lips, raised the baton in his hand, and the sound of the piano suddenly sounded!
