Chapter 106: Music Dream Monthly Pass)

——Double the last day to ask for monthly votes.

…………………………………………………………………………

"Brons" used to be the estate of Natasha, Countess of Violet, and the coachman was no worse than that of Phyllis "Bern". The carriage drove smoothly and unusually through the crowded streets of Alto, slowly heading towards the musicians in the administrative district.

Association, Lucien in the carriage did not feel the slightest bump.

"Alto has become so lively." Through the half-opened car window, Lucien felt the unprecedented hustle and bustle in Alto. The number of people walking on both sides of the avenue was several times the usual number at this time.

On the road, many strange carriages can be seen, because the coat of arms on their carriages is not familiar to Lucien. "This is the coat of arms of Viscount Taran of the Holy Herz Empire. This is the coat of arms of Bai Feng of the Kingdom of Syracuse."

The coat of arms of Baron Lin's family... Haha, I can definitely be considered a heraldry scholar."

Natasha's study has books devoted to the heraldry of nobles, and these books occupy a large part of the study. Therefore, although Lucien has not read them all, through his strong memory and retrieval and comparison, he can basically read the common ones.

I know all the coat of arms.

After looking at these slightly exotic carriages, Lucien turned his attention to both sides of the avenue, where minstrels and street performers could be seen every ten meters or so.

"Uncle Joel?" Lucien suddenly discovered that at the corner of the street, Joel was playing the "Ur" harp happily. Although he was missing two fingers on his left hand, it did not affect his ability to play this simple instrument.

Ordinary music.

Instructing the coachman to stop the carriage on the street, Lucien walked up to Joel, looked at him with a smile, and listened quietly to him playing a warm and romantic serenade.

Pedestrians around him cheered and applauded, and some took out copper coins and threw them into the hat in front of Joel.

But none of them recognized that the quiet young man smiling and listening nearby was the talented musician they had been talking about before.

After finishing playing, Joel said to Lucien humorously: "It's hard to stay at home for a long time with nothing to do."

John gained Sir Wayne's favor, and Lucien often found various reasons to take care of them. Joel and Alyssa could live a very good life even if they didn't have to work.

Lucien did not feel embarrassed at all by Joel: "I can see that you are very happy, Uncle Joel. It is a wonderful thing to be able to simply enjoy the joy brought by music." Joel was very happy with the copper in the hat.

No attention at all.

"You're right, the arrival of the Alto Music Festival rekindled my enthusiasm, so I took to the streets to play again, but it was no longer for life." Joel got Lucien's understanding and was even happier, "I seem to have returned to

In the past, not long after I came to Aalto, I was just like them, full of musical dreams and simple dedication to music. After so many years, I finally found this beauty again." He pointed to the unfamiliar minstrels nearby.

Poet and street performer.

They are completely different from their colleagues who have been in Aalto for a long time. They are all working hard to play their own music to passers-by and show off their singing voices, hoping to get appreciation and recognition rather than money.

Lucien liked this simple beauty very much: "When I saw them, my mood became happy."

"So this is why I like the Aalto Music Festival." Joel laughed, then picked up the seven-string "Ur" harp and played a soothing and melodious piece of music.

Lucien watched him immersed in the dream world of music without disturbing him. After standing quietly for a while, he took a walk nearby and enjoyed the performances of minstrels and street performers, occasionally throwing out a few copper coins.

Expressing his affirmation, Lucien has been at home analyzing magic for too long, and Lucien misses such a lively, lively and noisy scene.

And from their different flavors of music from different countries, Lucien is also absorbing the essence and perfecting a piece of music he created.

Lucien did not plagiarize this piece of music, but adapted it from the third movement of the "Violin Sonata in G Minor" which is one of the most difficult in the world. After Lucien adapted it into a piano piece, he changed the rhythm, dynamics and speed.

A lot of modifications and treatments have been made in order to give a dazzling performance at my concert.

Since there is no similar piece of music on earth to this sonata, Lucien adapted it slowly by himself, which can be regarded as a truly his own adaptation. No matter what, in what may be the first and last music performance in his life

During the performance, Lucien still hopes to have something of his own.

Walking slowly on the street, Lucien found that he really fell in love with this vibrant city. The melodious music and lively and bustling scenes were all so beautiful: "It would be great if there was no church."

"Sir, are you coming to our concert? It's free!" Suddenly, a man in his twenties ran past, and he sincerely invited Lucien, his green eyes full of enthusiasm and expectation.

Lucien asked doubtfully: "Concert?"

"Yes, sir, we rented a big house on the street to hold a concert and invite everyone to listen for free!" The man with shaggy brown hair introduced quickly, "By the way, I am Piola, from the band.

First violinist, would you like to participate?"

Lucien was just about to take advantage of the time before two o'clock in the afternoon to listen around, so he smiled and nodded: "Where is it?"

Piola cheered: "The thirtieth audience member!"

Then he took Lucien and turned into a street and entered the lobby of a two-story civilian building.

There is a simple temporary stage in the center of the hall. On it are two violins, a viola, a cello and a harpsichord borrowed from an unknown source. A lady with long black hair and a light blue dress

, a plump adult girl was sitting on the piano stool taking care of the instrument, and there were already more than 20 concert-goers around her.

After Piola brought Lucien in, she smiled apologetically: "Sir, please wait for fifteen minutes. We will invite more friends. During this time, Grace will play the harpsichord for you.

."

Lucien probably understood what was going on. They should be bands from other countries, taking advantage of the Aalto Music Festival to come here to pursue their music dreams. However, because they were not famous and did not have enough money, they could not

Those concert halls rented to Aalto, and even if they are rented, there are not many audiences, so they can only use the form of free and simple concerts to let more people know about them, gain recognition, and build their reputation.

After Piola went out, the girl named Grace played "For Sylvia" on the harpsichord, and the familiar and beautiful melody sounded in Lucien's ears.

This piece of music is simple and easy to learn, and Grace played it well, but Lucien frowned slightly: "The harpsichord cannot produce that pure feeling like the tinkling flow of spring water, or a song-like melody effect.

A little worse."

Due to its other advantages, the harpsichord was not immediately eliminated by the piano.

After playing four or five pieces of music that Lucien was familiar with, Piola and two other men and one woman successively attracted more than 20 guests.

Seeing that the small room had become crowded with guests, Piola decided to start the concert. He walked onto the stage, picked up the violin, and said enthusiastically: "We are the band from the Pearl of the Sea 'Sturk'. I

It's Piola, the first violinist, this is Sharon, the second violin, Green, the violist, Leslie, the cellist, and Grace, the harpsichordist. Welcome everyone to our concert."

It can be seen that they have often held similar free and simple concerts in their original city, so they have rich experience. From the beginning, they used a lively serenade to arouse everyone's emotions.

After that, there were some small works such as Fantasia created by themselves.

Although Lucien himself has no real creative ability, he has been deeply influenced by the Aalto Musicians Association and has reached a certain level in piano playing, so his ability to identify music is still very strong. He nodded slightly: "It's spiritual, there are a few passages

The melody and harmony are good, but they are far from outstanding." Their basic skills are good, and they can become qualified musicians even in Alto, unlike most bards who have developed habits

, I can’t change it even if I want to.

The simple concert ended in less than an hour. Because it was free and because the Alto people really loved music, Piola and the others received warm applause. This made them very encouraged and excited, so they all walked off the stage and prepared to talk to the audience.

Share your own music.

Piola directly approached Lucien, a young man with extraordinary temperament: "Sir, what do you think of our Fantasia in C minor?" He wanted to hear this gentleman's opinion.

"Yes, but I think there are still some flaws in the development of musical logic, attack method and note density..." Lucien said his opinion seriously.

"Ah..." Piola didn't expect to get such professional advice. It took her more than ten seconds to recover, and then she started talking to Lucien eagerly.

The other audience members left quickly after talking about their auditory experiences, so Leslie, Grace, etc. gathered over, looking at the professional exchange between the two with slight surprise, and then joined in one after another.

"Thank you, sir, we have received valuable advice." Grace saw Lucien preparing to leave and quickly expressed her gratitude to him.

Lucien smiled gently and said: "This is considered a ticket to the concert. I have to leave. I wish you a happy stay in Alto."

"Thank you for your blessing. We will definitely be happy, because the Aalto Music Festival is about to start in a few days. In addition to the concerts you can listen to before midnight in each concert hall, the concert in the Psalm Hall will also be held today.

The schedule has been announced. There will be a concert of masses and hymns starting at eight o'clock in the evening on the first day. Many famous musicians will present their own religious works." Piola looked very excited when she mentioned this, "On the night of the 4th

It will be the symphony concert of the distinguished Mr. Christopher, and the night of the 5th will be the first concert of the talented musician Mr. Lucien Evans."

Lucien was slightly confused: "Has it been arranged?"

"Of course, one represents the past and the present, and the other represents the present and the future. The arrangement is really interesting." Sharon, the silver-haired violinist, said equally excitedly, "I can listen to the music of Mr. Christopher and Mr. Evans in person.

Yes, we will have no regrets in spending seven full months from the sea to Alto this time."

During the Aalto Music Festival, concerts at the Chant Hall will be performed simultaneously in the Municipal Square through a special magical array to ordinary people who cannot get tickets.

"Seven months, at the seaside..." Lucien's heart moved, and he chatted with them about the dangers and experiences of traveling. It was not until nearly two o'clock that he said goodbye with satisfaction.

Seeing Lucien's back disappearing through the gate, Grace sighed: "I didn't expect that a random gentleman on the streets of Alto would have such a high level of musical literacy. It deserves to be the capital of music."

"Oops, we were so rude, we didn't even ask for this gentleman's name." Piola patted her forehead in frustration.

After arriving at the Musicians Association and saying hello to Elena, Lucien went to his exclusive lounge to prepare for the afternoon practice with the band.

Not long after, there was a knock on the door. Lucien opened the door and unexpectedly saw Natasha and Camille.

"Lucien, be careful lately and don't go out at night. The Silver Horn has shown signs of activity in many small towns on the edge of the principality." Natasha closed the door and warned Lucien seriously. (
