Chapter 219 Speech invitation from the Conservatory of Music

Looking at those people who were chasing stars, Fu Tiao really wanted to run away.

Not only did he want to run, but the group of people behind him also had unnatural expressions, and had the slightest idea of ​​​​escape.

After all, if you look at where they are now, they are just across a small bridge, between the Royal Academy of Music and the Royal Albert Hall.

This is a very classical building full of symmetrical beauty.

It is a large building built with brown-red wall tiles that are common in England, and has a bit of a Hogwarts architectural style.

Very solemn.

But in front of this solemn building, a group of people were waving at that place with glow sticks and support light signs. It felt weird to see it.

The person behind Fu Diao had a tense face, covered his face and quickly ran in front of them, reached out and pulled off their support light sign, and whispered with a stiff expression.

"What are you doing? Are you crazy? Bring these things out? Do you know that we just walked from the Royal Albert Hall and just stepped on the bridge and saw you waving light sticks in this place?

How does it feel?"

"What can we do? You are in such a hurry as you said. In twenty minutes, there is no way we can print out a banner for you in twenty minutes, saying that we welcome Teacher Fu Diao to come to the Royal Conservatoire of England for guidance. These support light signs

Or I borrowed it from my friend. Do you know how hard it is to find this support light sign? I also spent a lot of effort to change the name on it to Fu Diao, okay?"

"I know, I know, but..."

The man didn't know what to say. He turned to look at Fu Tiao, who was hesitating whether to turn around and run away. He couldn't help but gritted his teeth and said: "Anyway, you put the things in your hands first and don't wave them around here. It's really..."

It was so embarrassing that even I wanted to run away."

"Fine……"

When everyone heard what the man said, they could only put away the lamp signs in their hands with some lingering thoughts and walked towards Fu Diao.

Lin Xuan, who had been taking Fu Diao on a tour before, also wanted to cover his head a little bit at this time, and said to Fu Diao embarrassedly.

"I'm sorry, Teacher Fu Diao, I made you laugh..."

"No, it's okay. It just feels a little strange. After all, I've never seen such a battle before. It's good to see it occasionally."

After Fu Tiao saw those people put away their light signs, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief and said with a smile.

The same was true for Lin Xuan, who also laughed along with Fu Diao.

Of course, both of them smiled slightly with some scenes.

After seeing that the group of people had packed their things, Lin Xuan immediately stretched out his hand and said.

"Okay, Teacher Fu Diao, please follow us here."

After that, he led the way and took Fu Tiao into the Conservatory of Music.

Fu Diao stood at the door and looked around before following him and continuing inside.

The Royal Conservatoire of England and the Albert Royal Concert Hall are completely opposite. One is on this side of the arch bridge, and the other is on the other side of the arch bridge. The two are probably only less than a hundred meters apart.

Compared with the distance between music conservatories and top concert halls in other places, perhaps the Royal Conservatory of Music is the closest.

This is a big advantage, especially for students.

Listening to the top concerts in such top venues is very helpful for students' growth.

Fu Tiao just thought about it and followed Lin Xuan into the house.

As you can see from the outside, the house is full of classicism features, and you can even smell a hint of history in every place.

To be more precise, it is the smell of decay in the wood.

There is even a squeaky feeling when walking on the corridors in some places.

I don’t know why, but the creaking and creaking sounds of this place don’t bring about dilapidation or other negative emotions, but rather make people feel much more peaceful.

There are also those staggered stairs, which obviously seem a bit unplanned, but they are not messy.

Just like Hogwarts in the movie.

Although this place is not the filming location of Hogwarts, this type of interior decoration is a feature shared by countless English conservatoires.

This feeling is different from the previous music conservatories in Brussels, Berlin, Paris, Amsterdam and other places. I don’t know whether it is the accumulation of history or a cultural mark. Fu Diaozou feels much more comfortable there than in Brussels.

Especially when the Royal Conservatory of Music in Brussels is decorated very old on the outside and very modern on the inside.

When you compare it with the Royal Conservatoire of England, you can feel what cultural heritage is.

The group of Chinese on the side seemed to see that Fu Tiao was interested in their school, and they immediately signaled to each other with their eyes. Lin Xuan, the leader, immediately smiled and said.

"Teacher Fu Tiao, do you know? In fact, our Royal Conservatory of Music is not the only one in London. In Chinese terms, there should be two Royal Conservatoires of Music here."

"two?"

Fu Diao didn't expect that he would actually say that, and couldn't help but ask: "Why two? Different campuses?"

"No, actually it's not."

Lin Xuan shook his head and explained to Fu Diao.

"This is actually a matter of translation. Both schools are translated as the Royal Conservatory of Music. If you use English, you can actually tell the difference between the two conservatories at a glance."

Lin Xuan took two steps forward, pointed at the school logo next to him, and smiled teasingly at Fu.

"Teacher Fu Tiao, look at this. It says Royal College of Music, abbreviated as RCM, which is translated as Royal College of Music."

"Yes, I know." Fu Tiao nodded.

Lin Xuan followed.

"Actually, it would be more accurate to call it the Royal University of Music, but because this place only teaches music, it is normal to be called the Royal College of Music. The name of another Royal College of Music is slightly different from ours.

It’s called…”

Lin Xuan paused and said in a very standard manner: "Royal Academy of Music, RAM for short, which translates to the Royal Academy of Music, is affiliated to the University of London."

Lin Xuan took Fu Tiao to visit the school, followed by a group of people, causing many people around to look at them curiously.

Perhaps because they saw many familiar faces among them, they, a small group of about twenty people, were not expelled.

Fu Diao didn't expect that there was such a saying.

Indeed, if translated, these two conservatories are indeed called the Royal Conservatory of Music.

The distinction can be made clearer in English.

but……

Fu Diao couldn't help but asked curiously: "Is there any difference in strength between the two families?"

Lin Xuan shook his head: "In fact, there is not much difference in terms of strength. It's just that the teachers in some majors are biased. Both of them are very good conservatories. The communication between our two conservatories is also extremely smooth, so there is no difference."

I didn’t say anything about the imaginary intrigues and the like. We are a music university here and we want to overpower the music school next door.”

Speaking of this, he couldn't help but laugh and added.

"And in China, everyone actually recognizes it as the Royal Conservatory of Music. If you say you are a Royal Conservatory of Music, you may be considered a pheasant university."

"That's it."

Fu Tiao nodded thoughtfully and fumbled with the decorations on the side.

According to Lin Xuan, it is a bit unbelievable that two extremely top conservatories are actually close together, and the degree of professional relatedness is so high.

Even the Hanns Eisler Academy of Music in Berlin and the University of the Arts in Berlin are not as closely related as they are here.

Hans Eisler is actually more like a pure music academy, just teaching music.

Berlin University of the Arts is not just about music, they also have many other majors, such as fine arts, drama, and dance.

They are the only two art universities in Germany.

Even the two schools of Hua Guo, Hua Guo Yuan and Central Yuan, teach in completely different directions.

One prefers traditional Chinese musical instruments, and the other prefers classical music.

Fu Tiao was a bit surprised that the two conservatoires of music, RAM and RCM, could be so similar, and could only be separated based on their professional strengths.

This music conservatory looks very big from the outside, but when you walk inside it is not particularly big. After just walking a short distance, you can basically see the entire music conservatory.

That leaves only the piano rooms below that I haven’t looked at one by one.

After Fu Diao breathed a long sigh of relief, he nodded thoughtfully.

"The King's Conservatory of Music is really good. It feels more traditional and classical to me. If we just talk about classical music, England may be more classical than Germany."

"Hahaha, although our school looks relatively classical, in fact the truly classical ones are in Germany."

Lin Xuan followed Fu Diao and laughed. After taking a look around and seeing that no foreigners were paying attention to them, he immediately explained.

"Because basically all the classical music talents in England went to France and Germany after graduating from undergraduate degrees. The brain drain was extremely serious, so these two music schools were founded. First RAM was founded. As for our RCM

That’s what happens later.”

Speaking of this, Lin Xuan seemed to feel that Fu Tiao had the idea of ​​leaving, so he couldn't help but ask.

"Teacher Fu Tiao, um, I want to ask, that is, many of us here come to England to learn piano and vocal music. There are relatively few other instruments. Could you please tell us a few words?
