Chapter 394 Music Without Borders (Seeking Monthly Pass)
Harvey, the person in charge of the City Casino Concert Hall, walked onto the stage with a smile. Under the attention of the media and the audience, he retained the students of the Military Art Symphony Orchestra, especially Zheng Qian, shaking hands and greetings. It was simply
It was like seeing a huge treasure.
Then he warmly invited Kazmer and the Warsaw Philharmonic Orchestra to the stage.
"It is a great honor to invite the teachers of the Warsaw Philharmonic Orchestra to our Basel City Casino Concert Hall. Although it is just a simple music exchange meeting, the performance of the two orchestras today was perfectly presented.
Exceeding the performance level of the world's top orchestra, their performance today can attract the attention of the entire world music world. I am very happy to be able to witness this moment today..."
Harvey said enthusiastically that he was very happy today because, as he said, the entire industry around the world has paid special attention to the entire Basel City Casino Concert Hall because of the exchanges between these two top orchestras.
This is the best free publicity. Although the City Casino Concert Hall is famous enough, compared with the Vienna Golden Hall and the Amsterdam Concert Hall, which are often reported, the Basel City Casino Concert Hall is obviously a little less famous.
Weaker.
They are also among the three major concert halls in Europe, and the Basel City Casino Concert Hall is naturally unwilling to always be one step behind.
When he learned that the Warsaw Philharmonic Orchestra of Poland and the China Military Symphony Orchestra were starting to hold exchange meetings, Harvey immediately sent someone to get in touch with both parties, and finally reached an intention to cooperate.
All the ticket sales tonight will go into the pockets of the two major orchestras. The City Casino Concert Hall will not take any penny, all they want is the fame effect.
The media and photographers at the scene have also recorded the thrilling scenes of today's exchange meeting.
I believe that after it is broadcast on major streaming media platforms, there will be explosive discussions.
After all, even Harvey was shocked by the "Symphony of Destiny" played by the Military Art Symphony Orchestra. Even now, he still feels a numb shock in his heart.
On the stage, Kazmer began to look directly at Zheng Qian for the first time.
He looked at Zheng Qian and sighed.
What a young face!
Originally, East Asians were born to be younger. If he hadn't known that Zheng Qian was already twenty-four years old, Kazmer might have thought that Zheng Qian was just a teenager based on his past experience growing up as a European.
"I admire you very much."
Under the eager attention of the audience, Kazmaier said calmly: "Being able to create a work like "Symphony of Destiny" shows that Mr. Zheng indeed has the ability to stabilize the world's top composers, and I also like it very much."
This piece of music opens the floodgates of fear, terror, and trembling, and awakens the essence of romanticism—the longing for eternity.”
Harvey was a little confused. As expected, the eloquence of these great musicians was so wonderful. Almost every great musician was a well-known music critic, because in this field of classical music, only musicians understand musicians.
He couldn't help but said: "Mr. Kazmer, what is your evaluation of "Symphony of Destiny"? Is it really able to be remembered forever? We want to hear what you think when you hear this great piece of music?"
As soon as these words came out, the whole place fell silent.
This exchange meeting was full of excitement even before it started, causing a huge stir in the entire European music scene. Almost all people in the industry were paying more or less attention to the concert.
Under such circumstances, Kazmer's evaluation of the Military Art Orchestra and "Symphony of Destiny" is crucial.
At this moment, Kazmer stared at Zheng Qian and said slowly for a long time: "This is the only symphony that can capture my heart from the beginning. With its passionate music and heroic melody, it inspires people to be brave and brave with their destiny."
To fight! It is also the intertwining of power, drama, emotion and fantasy.”
"The whole piece of music ebbs and flows, exuding the tragedy of heroism, so the aesthetic part becomes more sad and moving, and the climax becomes more majestic..."
Kazmer became more and more fluent as he spoke, and he was immersed in the aftereffects of listening to "Symphony of Destiny".
Finally, under the astonished eyes of the audience, Kazmer came back to his senses and said: "I know what Mr. Zheng wanted to express when he created this piece of music. You have to seize fate by the throat!"
"I don't know what kind of pressure Mr. Zheng was under to create such amazing music, but I am very happy to be your pressure."
"The world needs Mr. Zheng to let your talent shine freely."
"If you want..."
Kazmaier said as he took a physical test: "Our Warsaw Philharmonic Orchestra welcomes you, Mr. Zheng, to join us."
"No matter what conditions you put forward or what kind of treatment you require, we will treat them with the greatest enthusiasm and sincerity."
When the entire Warsaw Philharmonic Orchestra heard this sentence, they were stunned, but then they all showed warm smiles, goodwill, and beautiful eyes and looked at Zheng Qian at the same time.
If you can't beat it, buy it?
Many students, including those in the Military Art Symphony Orchestra, were stunned at this moment.
Kazmer spoke English, which everyone could understand to a greater or lesser extent.
Many people even think this is a brilliant idea, or even an invitation they can't refuse.
But the students of military arts were all smiling at this moment.
damn it……
Don’t you know how high my brother Qian’s status is throughout Asia?
How can you, a mere Warsaw Philharmonic Orchestra, recruit Brother Qian?
Want to eat shit?
Zheng Qian didn't have so many emotions surging in his heart. He just nodded calmly: "Thank you Mr. Kazmer for your kindness. However, I have no plans to join any orchestra at the moment. If there is one, it can only be our Chinese orchestra."
Military Art Symphony Orchestra.”
"good!"
There were Chinese people in the audience who understood Chinese and suddenly cheered loudly.
Next, with the Chinese-American taking the lead in applauding and applauding, warm applause began to ring out again.
No one would think that Zheng Qian is ignorant of praise, because he has the confidence and qualifications to say such things.
Even people who don’t know Zheng Qian’s background feel that there is nothing wrong with Zheng Qian’s words. No one does not love their motherland. Every country will provide patriotism education to its people, so with empathy,
The audience even felt that Zheng Qian was worthy of admiration.
Immediately afterwards, Harvey asked Zheng Qian to evaluate the performance of the Warsaw Philharmonic Orchestra.
Although Zheng Qian has been a judge on "Avenue of Stars", he is really a little unsure about the review. However, he still knows the principle of carrying people in a sedan chair, so he just said some words:
"We all know that Mr. Kazmaier, who serves as the conductor of the Warsaw Philharmonic Orchestra, is one of the greatest conductors in the world of music. Under the baton of Mr. Kazmaier, the ensemble skills of the Warsaw Philharmonic Orchestra are brilliant and stylish.
Elegant, rich sound,
And it has excellent response ability. I think that under the guidance of Mr. Kazmer, no matter which conductor leads the orchestra, he can give full play to his strength. It can be said that the Warsaw Philharmonic Orchestra is truly one of the best in the world today.
The best of all symphony orchestras.”
Zheng Qian's comments made Kazmer, who was still maintaining his posture, finally smile.
Many musicians in the Warsaw Philharmonic Orchestra were laughing from ear to ear. They had already developed a liking for Zheng Qian under the power of "Symphony of Destiny", but now after being praised by Zheng Qian, these simple-minded musicians
My hands are almost flying with joy.
The originally tense atmosphere turned out to be joyful at the end of the music exchange meeting.
This scene is something that Harvey and even many people did not expect.
Three hours have passed, and finally, with Harvey's announcement, this music exchange event that attracted the attention of the world's music scene officially ended.
People naturally have their own opinions on which one is better and which one is worse.
However, at least judging from the reaction of the audience at the scene, when "Symphony of Destiny" was played, the balance of the world had begun to tilt towards the Military Art Symphony Orchestra.
Countless people may forget the other pieces of music in this performance afterwards, but "Symphony of Destiny" will definitely remain fresh in their memory.
After the exchange meeting, the students of the Military Art Symphony Orchestra did not leave immediately, because many people were rushing to come and take photos. After all, they were young people from the ancient country in the far East, a land that many Europeans and Americans had never set foot in their lives. For
In China, people have no other channels to obtain news except the negative news they see in reports.
But judging from the current situation, the Chinese are indeed amazing. At such a young age, they can compete with the masters of the world's top orchestras. This is beyond people's understanding of the Chinese.
Therefore, the shock and surprise in my heart were also huge.
After taking some photos, Zheng Qian asked Song Huiming and others to return to the hotel first. He went to the hospital to visit Xu Mingming, who was suffering from abdominal pain, under the leadership of Mr. Gong, a staff member of the Chinese Embassy in the local area.
When they arrived at the hospital, Lou Ze, who had received the news in advance, was waiting in front of the door.
"Xu Mingming has ureteral stones, which is not a big problem."
There was a touch of excitement in Lou Ze's expression: "How is it? I heard from Teacher Gong that the "Symphony of Destiny" performed by our military art shocked the whole audience?"
"It's not that exaggerated." Zheng Qian waved his hand, paused, and then said: "But it's not much different."
When Lou Ze heard this, he burst into laughter and immediately gave Zheng Qian a bear hug, as excited as a child.
The diplomat next to him, Teacher Gong, smiled and said: "I witnessed everything that happened on the spot. The conductor of the Warsaw Philharmonic Orchestra said it himself, and he admired Zheng Qian very much..."
Teacher Gong relayed what Kazmer had said about Zheng Qian, and Lou Ze kept applauding.
"This guy is quite discerning!" Lou Ze said excitedly, "Now the reputation of our Military Art Symphony Orchestra has been established."
"There are more than 30 media reporters on site."
Teacher Gong said: "There are seven or eight photographers who specialize in shooting and recording. This exchange meeting attracted much attention a month ago, and it will definitely make the headlines of major newspapers in Switzerland tomorrow."
Zheng Qian hummed, then asked carefully about the cause of Xu Mingming's illness.
It turned out that what Xu Mingming had was not acute appendicitis, but kidney stones.
The reason why it hurts so much that I can't straighten my waist and makes me sweat profusely is because the kidney stone fell into the ureter.
A small stone blocked the narrow ureter. Zheng Qian felt kidney pain just thinking about it.
"It was shattered with an instrument." Lou Ze said with a smile: "The main reason is that I don't exercise much and drink less water. The doctor said that the problem is not serious. There are often similar cases in European and American countries, so their medical experience
It’s very informative, and it’s also very good at treating Xu Mingming. However, because the performance was delayed, Xu Mingming was still wiping tears in the ward. I suggest you not to go, to protect your child’s self-esteem.”
Hearing this, Zheng Qian was relieved. Hearing that Xu Mingming was crying because of self-blame, he stopped going in for a visit.
That night, under the introduction of Teacher Gong, Zheng Qian and others held a celebration banquet at a restaurant in Basel to celebrate the great success of this performance.
Although the first half of the performance did not achieve the desired effect due to Xu Mingming's reasons, overall it was still very smooth.
Especially the appearance of "Symphony of Destiny" shocked everyone present as expected.
This alone can almost make the Military Art Symphony Orchestra invincible.
This is the effect everyone expects.
The next day, as expected, the video of the exchange meeting held by the Military Arts Symphony Orchestra and the Warsaw Philharmonic Orchestra at the City Casino Concert Hall in Basel, Switzerland, was immediately broadcast on major music channels throughout Europe.
At the same time, countless music critics who participated in the concert hall performances also began to make crazy reports in the media.
Everyone praised the Military Art Symphony Orchestra, especially the killer song "Symphony of Destiny", which some music critics even called the greatest music in the world.
Of course, there are also people who hold different opinions.
However, even the most conservative music critic calls this piece of music "one of the greatest pieces of music of the 21st century!"
Many great musicians who did not come to the scene also watched the performance video of "Symphony of Destiny" for the first time.
Then, almost at the same time, all the great musicians spoke out:
"The performance of "Symphony of Destiny" is indeed shocking, and it is also an epic classic movement. However, judging from the performance of the entire piece of music, the emotion of this "Symphony of Destiny" is too full, and it makes people feel uncomfortable from the beginning.
The shocking and constant climax can indeed capture people's hearing, but this does not conform to the rules of symphony creation."
"Perhaps, before Mr. Zheng composed "Symphony of Destiny", he had already composed more symphonies, and after composing many symphonies, he naturally wrote this "Symphony of Destiny" that shocked the world!"
"I am Abraham Pullman, music conductor of the Dresden Staatskapelle..."
"I am Matthew Mohr, cellist of the Czech Philharmonic Orchestra..."
"I am Terrence Sawyer, pianist of the New York Philharmonic..."
"I am the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra..."
"I am the Toronto Symphony Orchestra...
"..."
"Music has no borders. We hope that for the development of the world music scene and the common expectation of all musicians, we hope that Mr. Zheng can continue to publish a series of symphonies he has created in the past in Europe and North America as soon as possible..."
"Thank you Mr. Zheng for your contribution to the development of the world music scene!"
