In fact, he feels that both the definition and characteristics of "ge" are very consistent with his long-standing artistic values.
Especially the last point that Viadlin made, about the evaluation of art in the long history.
During his lifetime, Bach was considered an old organist who "liked to write in outdated genres" and was not as famous as his sons. After his death, he and his works were long forgotten by the world.
Van Gogh believed that the sunflowers he painted should be worth 500 francs, but in fact no one cared about this price. The only public auction record in his life, "The Red Vineyard" was sold for 400 francs.
The two men were opposites when they were alive. One was considered "old-fashioned" and "old-fashioned" and the other was considered "weird" and "deviant." However, later history proved that they were both pioneers.
Only those who are enthusiastic, diligent, loyal to what they want in their hearts, and have a reverence for art can live forever in another way.
Viadlin's gaze went from top to bottom, passing through the highly staggered cross-corridors of the church: "People's research on the mystical theory of 'G' has gone through a tortuous process. They discovered that ancient scholars found in the hidden classics
Interpretations of similar definitions vary widely, some are incomplete, some are difficult to understand, some are too emotional, and some even have value judgment tendencies that are contrary to human beings' consistent aesthetics, and are considered to be dangerous hidden knowledge recorded when they are contaminated by evil gods."
"The division method adopted by the current discussion group is based on the 'Seven Doors' theory of the Third Imperial Court School, combined with the inspiration of the concrete elements in the metaphorical mural "Cow Slaughter Picture" popular in that period, and through the modern mysterious
It was formed after learning optimization and adjustment.”
Hearing this, Fan Ning's heart moved. The third historical metaphor mural?
Judging from the name, this is most likely the image on the stone tablet that he saw deep in the underground building. Unexpectedly, Viadlin also knew that what he heard at the joint dream meeting of the Special Patrol Department
For several terms, similar elements can indeed be found in the details of "Cow Slaughtering Picture".
"The principle behind the naming method of 'Gate' does not need to be delved into because it involves the hidden knowledge of higher levels. However, you have already half-stepped into the threshold of a high level and are about to form an intuitive impression of Huita. The division of 'Gate' itself at each level
Methods, we really should have a comprehensive understanding..."
...
In Viadlin's explanation, not everyone possesses "character". People with "character" do not always survive after death.
Those who live a mediocre life without any output must have no "cognition and remembrance by the world" from the beginning to the end.
Even if an artist has produced a certain amount of "quality" during his lifetime, as he dies, he may be gradually forgotten by the world and gradually decline to the point of "not being in the mainstream", or he may be said to have lost his "quality".
". Of course, there are also cases where the artist is gradually understood and valued by the world after his death, and the "level" rises instead of falling, or it is said that the "level" rises.
Under the premise of clarifying these points, there are seven levels of "grid" at or above the "flow" level. According to Viadlin's explanation, their names are all metaphorically named to correspond to the "big court school"
"Seven Gates" is a term used in the occult theory -
The first height: "Moth". In Fan Ning's understanding, the world's recognition corresponding to this height is probably close to someone who "begins to leave his own footprints in his artistic career" and becomes a "moth"
"It means that together with thousands of similar people, he will devote himself to the pursuit of lofty things in a small way, and will not hesitate to burn out his inspiration.
A considerable number of musicians, singers, painters, poets, diligent composers and conductors, teachers with rich academic experience and qualifications, and a very small number of geniuses in their student days who have left a deep impression on their peers and appreciators are all here.
One level.
The essential difference between "Moth" and the unpopular "Ge" is that the former has received complete art theory and practical training, and has profound insights in a certain field. The former's art theory can influence people, and art teaching can educate people.
, the work or performance can move people, but the latter cannot.
The second height: "Groom". It roughly corresponds to the "young artists" recognized by the world, and also includes many highly respected "old artists", "old professors" and "old scholars". Fan Ning had accidentally discovered this long ago.
The word "groom" and "sower" in Lungalia are the same word, which means that this person has begun to output something with a personal imprint into the world.
The essential difference between the "Groom" and the "Moth" is that the former has begun to follow free will, explore an artistic path of his own, and has gained recognition from a certain range of audiences, turning from an artistic "craftsman" into a complete
Art has a "home", but the latter does not and cannot.
The third level: "Blade Holder". It roughly corresponds to the "famous artist" recognized by the world. It means that the artist has turned the illusory free will into a weapon in his hand, and is determined to create himself with a fighting posture.
and changes in the nature of people in the world.
The essential difference between "Blade Bearer" and "Bridegroom" is that the former has formed a mature and strong personal style, and his artistic reputation resounds throughout his country and spreads around the world, while the latter does not and cannot.
For those who can still maintain this level after death, or who have fallen to this level from other heights, their works and achievements will be recorded in documents with search or index functions. They can be found on the IMSLP music score collection network of Fan Ning's previous life.
Or the "Music Bible" and other reference books, at least the "Blade Bearer" composer; those who have been dead for hundreds of years and can still find one or two pictures of his paintings in some corner of the Internet, at least
He is a "Blade Bearer" artist.
The fourth level: "Lion Forging". It roughly corresponds to what the world recognizes as "great artists". This is the level nominated by the discussion group for "Boethius Artists", which means that the artist's works or interpretations have the "
"Power", its style can produce a transcendent "sublime aesthetic".
The essential difference between "Lion Forging" and "Blade Bearer" is that during his lifetime, the influence of the former has spread all over the world, and wealth and honor in the worldly sense are readily available. Even after a period of time after death, people around the world will spontaneously set off
There are countless commemorative events, but the latter does not and cannot.
Take composers as an example. Hundreds of years after their death, their names can still appear in Fan Ning's previous college textbooks such as "History of Western Music". You can even find some unpopular recording resources on the Internet, at least "Forged Lion"
Artists, but they are usually second- and third-tier knowledge points that are “difficult to memorize and remember.”
The fifth height: "Crescent". It roughly corresponds to the "great master of art" recognized by the world. This is the height at which the discussion group awarded the official title of "Boethius Artist", which means that the "style" of the master is like
As great as a newly rising celestial body.
The essential difference between "Crescent Moon" and "Forged Lion" is that the former not only creates relatively high-yield outstanding works, but also has an influence that has not faded away from the field of vision after hundreds of years of countless outstanding works, but has become more lasting.
, people of later generations commemorate them every day, appreciate or perform his works all over the world every day, and shed tears in countless moments and gain comfort, but the latter cannot.
The "forged lion" is the pride of a country or nation, and the "crescent moon" is the eternal wealth of all mankind. No amount of gold can be used to exchange for one more masterpiece by the master.
Whether here or in previous lives, the most well-known group of music masters and art masters are the existence of "Crescent Moon". And those "lion-forged" composers who will be considered second- and third-tier in a few hundred years, except for extreme enthusiasts and
Music scholars and most people will not listen to these "unpopular" works.
The sixth level: "Torch Holder". It roughly corresponds to the "Master" of art recognized by the world. Its weight is extremely important, surpassing that of "Master". There are only one or two people in each art period who can reach "Torch Holder" in this world.
There are only musicians with a high degree of "conformist", or only a few people such as Gregory, Kashunich, and Gilles. Romantic musicians who have only developed for more than half a century, no one dares to be evaluated in this way.
The essential difference between the "torch bearer" and the "crescent moon" is that the former is indisputable, opening up a new era, leading artistic changes, inspiring countless "forging lions" and "crescent moons", and having a profound influence on the entire human history of mankind.
They are all pioneers who have had a profound impact, and if the latter evaluates it this way, it may face the controversy of "over-praise" or "one's own opinion".
In Blue Star, there are only a few musicians who can reach the level of "torch bearer", such as 3B: Bach in the Baroque period, Beethoven in the classicism period, and Brahms in the romantic period.
There is no dispute about the "form"; perhaps there are also Wagner, who has a very special position in the history of opera, Tchaikovsky, the master of the national music school, Debussy, the founder of impressionism, and Xun Xun, the founder of modern music and expressionism.
Berg, the "character" of these people is different.
The seventh height: "Father". This height is only theoretical, and there is no secular term that can correspond to it. In other words, if the ignorant have to recognize such an existence, they will think it is a god. According to the Grand Palace School
The height of mysticism is enough to allow mortal creatures to pass through the "door of the dome" and become a being comparable to the Lord of Witnesses.
With his previous achievements and response, Fan Ning is considered to have risen to the top of the "Groom" and is infinitely close to the "Blade Bearer".
And now, he has performed the "Gothenburg Variations" perfectly in front of four profound masters, three "crescents", and many other "qualified" artists. The subsequent series of reactions will elevate Fan Ning's "qualified" to the highest level.
The top of the "Blade Bearer" is infinitely close to the "Forged Lion", which is why the three masters agreed that he can be nominated as a "Boethius Artist".
After clarifying the concept and level of "lattice", the previously mentioned relationship between "the prosperity of human art" and the "speed of diffusion of abnormal areas" can be explained in a simpler and more intuitive mystical language——
"The more high-level "grids" there are, the slower the abnormal area spreads."
No wonder Pogorelic said that having one more person with a "crescent" height will buy a lot of extra time.
The influence of many masters is eternal. After death, if the world's understanding of them remains unchanged and their memory is immortal, the "Crescent Moon" will still exist in the world.
Even for musicians whose creations are more market-oriented and focus on superficial gorgeousness and elegance - such as the extremely popular operetta Dominic, the virtuoso pianist Uccillo, and the former Lee Viadlin - as long as they
Being able to bring spiritual enjoyment to the world and reaping repercussions, his "character" can still be raised to "Forged Lion" or even "Crescent Moon".
After their death, we don’t care whether their artistic influence will fade or whether their “style” will decline. At least they played an important role during their lifetime.
An extremely important value for scholars who study musicology or art history is that they may be able to rediscover the precious value of some artists who have been buried in history.
——The "style" during his lifetime was comparable to that of Bach, who was at the level of a "blade bearer". Who would have thought that he would become a "torch bearer" a few hundred years later? Although there was Mendelssohn who discovered the "Matthew Passion"
It's accidental, but in the final analysis, history will eventually judge fairly what a person leaves behind in the world.
After Viadlin descended to the church ground, Fan Ning still bent his hands on the railing of the steps of the lighting pavilion, and was alone in trance for a long time.
He felt that at this time, there was a sense of freedom and understanding in the spiritual level.
Many things that I was feeling, confused, or wanted to express before have now been confirmed on a deeper level.
However, he still has other confusions. The "Boethius Artists" selection mechanism was born more than half a century ago for the evaluation needs of "Ge" and to integrate resources and build momentum to help artists create a response faster, but he doesn't know
Why is it directly related to the promotion of the mysterious side in recent years?
In this regard, Viadlin said that after he is officially promoted to a high level and successfully completes the performance, he will take him to the headquarters of the Guidance School to learn some things.
After the condolence performance below was about to begin, Fan Ning walked around the criss-crossing corridors and back to the church ground.
"Why are you sitting here?" As he approached the reception table, Fan Ning found Luo Yin sitting next to the bench behind him, looking at him with a smile.
"Waiting for you to share with me the feeling of a successful performance." Luo Yin said.
"Okay." Fan Ning sat down next to her.
"What does it feel like?"
“Comfortable.”
"All right..."
The sound of tuning instruments on the sacrament table made the two people immediately fall silent.
Several singers, with the cooperation of a small orchestra, took turns performing more than ten art songs with Bassani's poems as lyrics. After these meaningful and long small works ended, the choir slowly entered. Bishop Mill took advantage of the short time to
Given the opportunity, he made a simple introduction, one of which impressed Fan Ning deeply.
"Everyone must follow his inner free will and produce the truth again and again, otherwise he will wither. Bassani has spent his life pursuing the truth. Even if it is not the ultimate truth, at least it will not be judged as disqualified by history."
Tarakani's large-scale religious work, "Requiem in A Minor" began to be played. This was what Fan Ning heard on the gramophone of the Woodpecker Office when he first came into contact with hidden knowledge. It was used to stabilize the sanity of the mystical prayer.
Wen's music.
Backed by the heavy rhythm of strings and the sound of bells, the woodwind instrumentation and horns played a gloomy and melancholy prelude, and then the choir, accompanied by the organ, sang a dark, scary, and trembling hymn theme.
The Church of St. James the Sun is undoubtedly a building with top-notch acoustics. The listening experience at the scene made Fan Ning's blood surge all over his body and his scalp became numb.
Vocal music is indeed an instrument that touches people's hearts directly. Certain impulses begin to emerge from deep inside and become stronger and stronger.
Luo Yin was obviously aware of it. During the screen change, she leaned over and asked softly: "Mr. Fan Ning, can I ask what you are thinking about?"
Fan Ning looked at the solemn display of the choir on the stage and responded slowly:
"What if I want to add a chorus to the last movement of my next symphony?"
