After introducing Marcus, Victor smiled and pointed at Lucien: "He is the Lucien Evans I often mentioned to you, the creator of the Symphony of Destiny."

"Hello, Mr. Marcus." Lucien followed Victor to stand up and nodded to Marcus.

Marcus with a self-confident smile: "Hello, Lucien, you can call me Marcus directly. When I was in Shaq Kingdom, I often heard about your reputation. After arriving in Alto, I wanted to be the first It’s time to visit you, but Teacher Victor told me not to disturb you preparing for the first concert.”

On the word "first show", Marcus's tone was a little heavy, as if he subconsciously felt that Lucien, who had no concert experience, was not worthy of the title of "musician".

Lucien replied politely: "Marcus, I often hear Teacher Victor mentioning you, saying that you are an excellent musician, and you have already had many concerts at the age of twenty-four."

"The main reason for being able to have so much concert experience is that many nobles have invited me to this tour." This is what Marcus is most proud of. His smile became brighter, and he sat down on the other side of Victor. He showed off his concert experience to Lucien, as well as knowledge from different countries, such as the Syracuse Kingdom, which advocated love and was enthusiastic and open; kingdom.

Lucien was very interested in this aspect, so he casually echoed Marcus and let him talk eloquently.

When the hall became quiet and the concert was about to start, Marcus stopped talking, thinking to himself: "Lucien is not as arrogant and shallow as I imagined, and seems to be easy to get along with..."

Originally, when Marcus knew that his teacher Victor had successfully held a concert in the chant hall and taught a talented musician through the "Music Review" and "Symphony Guide" in the Kingdom of Shaq, he was happy and blessed from the bottom of his heart. But as I read these two newspapers carefully, I saw every comment unabashedly praised Lucien, even the highest level of praise. When Lucien made the comparison, the balance in Marcus' heart became unbalanced, as if his heart was being bitten by countless mice.

"Why don't we wait for him to successfully hold a concert before comparing? Are there still fewer geniuses falling like meteors?" Marcus thought of the strange eyes of those people and the possible whispers in secret, and the feeling he had just had for Lucien A little goodwill disappeared completely. Serving as the court music consultant of the Shaq Kingdom should have been a peak in my life, but because of Lucien's fame and the frequent comparisons made by others, he lived a very tormented life, like a complete loser , "And he actually prepared solo piano pieces in such a perfunctory manner at such an important concert, he is really too arrogant and arrogant, and he is destined to suffer a disastrous failure!"

Marcus's hostility towards Lucien was hidden deeply, but Victor didn't realize it. He saw that the symphony orchestra was getting ready, and the old but hale and hearty Christopher was standing in front of the stage in a black tuxedo, so he, like everyone else, set his sights on Lucien. Keep your back straight and show respect for Christopher with your focused attitude.

In the municipal square, Phyllis, Lott, Piola, Grace and other audiences all held their breath, waiting for the start of the concert full of respect.

Even the most noble people such as Grand Duke Violet, Princess Natasha, and Prince Michel are expressing their respect.

The president of the Aalto Musicians Association, the most famous and authoritative musician in the entire continent, a living music legend, is about to start the last concert in his life!

"Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for participating in my concert. It has been fifty-nine years since I embarked on the road of music, and I am still standing here at the age of seventy. In addition to your support, I also Spurred on by a genius, the path he created allowed me to find my passion for making music again, like an eighteen-year-old lad."

"We age and die, but music doesn't, music never dies."

Christopher gave a succinct speech for his last concert, then turned around amidst the applause, his right hand holding the baton rose slightly with his empty left hand, and the music sounded.

The first three symphonies are selections from many of Christopher's past works, one is rich and full, the other is solemn and noble, and the other is warm and elegant, full of joy and happiness. Under his own command, the orchestra performed these three symphonies very well, making the "guests" in the chant hall and the countless audiences in the municipal square mesmerized.

This is a piece of music that has been performed for many years and is often heard from parents to children. This is the memory of many people's past lives. This is the power of classics!

During the short breaks in the symphony movements and the long breaks between each, it seemed that the whole of Artaud erupted into violent applause.

After finishing the three symphonies, Christopher said a little tiredly: "In the next time, my student Sylvia will bring you her piano sonata, and I will prepare for the fourth symphony."

Seeing Christopher going down, the nobles and musicians in the chant hall looked a little depressed, as if they had lost something, while in the municipal square, there was more admiration.

"It's really a classic work. Mr. Christopher is worthy of being a living music legend." Piola said to Sharon with a smile.

Sharon nodded earnestly: "I grew up listening to the three works just now, and it is the most honored thing in my life to be able to personally attend Mr. Christopher's concert."

"Great musicians who can be called 'masters' are rare even in the long history, but I think Mr. Christopher is qualified to be called so." Grace and others are also full of respect and admiration .

Sylvia, who was dressed in a white evening gown, looked like an angel descending to the world, walked to the stage, sat by the piano, put her slender and beautiful hands on the keys, and started her performance.

This is her teacher's introduction and help to her.

The beautiful display of the fast-slow-fast three-movement sonata, combined with Sylvia's beauty-like appearance and temperament, made everyone intoxicated again.

Lucien closed his eyes and listened quietly, feeling a little regretful in his heart that Sylvia's piano sonatas hadn't gotten rid of the influence and limitations of past music and musical instruments. Pros, are nice but still stuck in the past works.

However, it was her first time to perform in the chant hall, and it is already very good to have such works and performance.

At the end of the ten-minute sonata, Sylvia received warm applause, which made her a little excited, and she raised the hem of her skirt frequently to pay tribute.

During the applause, Lucien suddenly felt a gaze focused on him, so he looked back and happened to collide with Natasha's smiling purple eyes.

Natasha nodded with a bright smile, and Lucien understood what she meant, and thanked himself for guiding Sylvia's piano arrangement, creation and performance.

"Worthy of being the most beautiful musician." In the municipal square, countless men and women had this idea spontaneously when Sylvia played.

After a break, Christopher returned to the stage. After bowing, he turned around with a serious expression and waved his baton.

The two bright and powerful notes at the beginning cheered up everyone's spirits, and then the melody unfolded, creating a feeling of being on the battlefield, with great momentum.

When the trumpets sounded, everyone seemed to be full of enthusiasm, as if a magnificent picture of war appeared in front of them. Under the leadership of countless heroes, priests, knights, etc. united as one, charged forward like a tide, cut down The head of the giant smashes the tower of the evil magician and destroys all the demons and demons that have come to the world.

Followed by a sad movement, as if mourning a hero, beautiful and soothing, followed by a vigorous development, and a tragic, grand, and warm epic victory melody.

After the 40-minute symphony ended, Victor and the others came to their senses and stood up one after another, giving Christopher the warmest applause.

This is a theme music, this is an outstanding, excellent symphony!

In the twilight years of his life, Christopher was able to break through himself. He not only accepted the new music concept brought by Lucien, but also created immortal works!

"Master, Mr. Christopher is a veritable master!"

Piola excitedly announced to his companions that this was the most touching piece of music he had heard since the Symphony of Destiny. At this moment, he was full of reverence for Christopher, wishing to kiss the back of his hand.

Sharon, Grace and the others couldn't control themselves, and replied with a slight trembling: "The master never disappoints!"

"He showed us the epic War of the Dawn!"

Grand Duke Violet stood up from his seat and applauded, Natasha stood up and applauded, Michelle, Verdi, Hein, etc. all stood up and applauded, crazy applause, long applause reverberated in Alto, this is a tribute to a musician Tribute to the last great performance of the legend!

"Ladies and gentlemen, my concert is over. This is the last concert of my life. Tomorrow will be Lucien Evans, an outstanding talent who brings a new concept of music, to hold the concert of his life here." first concert."

"The last one, the first one, what a wonderful coincidence, maybe this is the Lord telling us that the music will never stop."

Following Christopher's words at the curtain call, all eyes in the chant hall were on Lucien.

This is not only the master's compliment, but also his earnest expectation. It is not hard to hear from his words that he hopes that Lucien will become a music legend in the future, a master who leads the development of music, and what kind of performance can Lucien show tomorrow?

Even unrelated strangers felt tremendous pressure at this moment, pressure that they couldn't bear.

Lucien, who had already stood up and applauded, bowed deeply to Christopher gratefully and respectfully.
