An Athlete Held up by an Entertainment Career

"There is no doubt that the symphony of "Elegy" is excellent and exciting, but I think it is not suitable for public performance.

Music is above language, it is about the melody of death, even I think the composer is abetting death.

He seems to have personally experienced this process, using musical notes to express his detachment from death. Now I have doubts and worries about Joe's mental state.

……

People who are sensitive to music are more likely to be infected by this symphony, and what the consequences will be is worth thinking about.I think it is also because of this that Mr. Maltz did not comment on "Elegy" at the exchange meeting.

Looking at the speeches of the audience on social media, "no longer afraid of death" and "no longer afraid", my God, I seem to see how irrational behavior a group of delicate and sensitive people will do.

......"

This is a comment made by a well-known music critic, and it attracted the attention of many media as soon as it was published.

"Gusu Moonlight Night" made this oriental boy a smash hit on social media. Once "Elegy Song" came out, discussions about him became more heated.

Many people agree with this music critic's point of view, thinking that this symphony has the power to touch people's hearts, as if the God of death is tempting to whisper, and should be banned.

Mr. Maltz's silence at the exchange meeting exacerbated the spread of such views.

What everyone didn't expect was that the first person to stand up to refute was Lucas, the principal of the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra, the music prodigy who had been overwhelmed by Xu Qiao recently.

On his homepage, he angrily accused the music critic, saying that his words were full of self-satisfied narcissism of opinion leaders in the music field, and an attitude towards artistic castration. Most importantly, he completely misunderstood the "Mourning" Song".

Instigate death?No, the attitude of this symphony is completely objective and fair, which is one of the reasons why it is enough to become a classic.

It completely depicts the process of the protagonist's death, like a bystander, recording what the protagonist sees and hears.

From pain and fear to peace and relief, is this abetment?This is a calm record, which makes people look at the process of death more rationally.

Lucas' views won the approval of many people, and the wind began to slowly change.

[Yes, I think that music review is weird, it seems reasonable but I can't believe it. "Elegy" does not give me the feeling he said, I agree with Lucas's words]

[My previous speech was excerpted by this music review article. Here I want to explain that what I said is no longer afraid of death, not that I will choose to try because I am not afraid. On the contrary, it makes me cherish more Everything I have now]

[The media's attacks on it are unreasonable. "Elegy" makes people face up to death, isn't it a good thing? ]

[Don't try death just because you are curious about it, don't choose it lightly just because you despise death. ]

[There is a saying in China called 'How happy is life, how sad is death', which comes from a thinker named Zhuangzi.I think "Elegy" is the interpretation of this sentence. There is no disrespect for life, but only relief for death. ]

[In fact, I feel that being open to death makes me more awed by life. ]

Not long after Lucas made these remarks, Mr. Maltz gave his speech a thumbs up, showing his attitude.

This completely reversed the previous remarks that were unfavorable to Xu Qiao.

Under the attention of the media, this grand exchange meeting finally came to the final round, and the gold, silver and bronze awards will be contested.

At this time, there are only the last ten symphony orchestras from all over the world, and the three-month exchange meeting is coming to an end.

Everyone knows that the competition for the gold medal will most likely be between Chinese folk orchestras and the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra.

What kind of works will they bring for the last feast?

All over the world, millions of viewers turned on the TV or the live broadcast platform, and focused their eyes on the magnificent music hall on the screen.

This time, the Chinese Orchestra took the lead.

On the big screen, two lines of characters slowly appeared: "Nuwa".Composer: Xu Qiao.

Another symphony he completed independently!

Everyone's eyes were complicated. Although they had guessed before, they were still shocked when they saw the column of composers.

What kind of surprises will this young oriental boy present to them?

"Nu Wa".

They don't know much about Chinese mythology, but they have some impression of this name.This is an ancient Chinese deity. It is said that she made human beings out of yellow mud and created the race of human beings.

If "Elegy" is a symphony about death, then "Nuwa" is a hymn to life.

At the beginning of the music, the faint timbre of the hole flute diffused, like someone yawning softly after waking up.There are low-pitched drums, one by one, reminiscent of the deep rhythm of the earth.

Nuwa was walking on the vast wilderness, she stared at the earth, the mountains and rivers were beautiful and magnificent, the rivers and rivers flowed endlessly, a kind of inexplicable loneliness surged up.

As the gurgling sound of the pipa joined in, Nuwa walked to the river and saw her own shadow.

Immediately blessed to the soul, the melody becomes joyful.She dug the yellow mud by the river, mixed it with the river water, and made a clay doll according to her own shadow.When the clay doll fell to the ground, it became an adult. Seeing this, Nuwa squeezed more.

The sound of the pipa becomes choppy and powerful, and the extremely grainy tone makes people feel like seeing a statue of a statue falling to the ground, bouncing towards every corner of the earth.

The stalwart goddess looked at these little dolls, and suddenly felt that the speed of creating humans in this way was too slow.

The sound of harp, drum, pipa, and zither became more and more urgent, and the music became louder. Nuwa threw the rattan into the yellow mud, stirred it, and then waved it in all directions.

When the yellow mud on the rattan falls to the ground, it becomes a human being, and the number of humans on the earth increases rapidly.

They danced and laughed, married men and women, and passed on from generation to generation. The traces of life marched to every corner of the earth, and the stretching music made every audience close their eyes in a daze.

The melody is really beautiful.

After the long and clear sound, the music gradually changed.

The strength is strengthened, plucked strings, strings, and wind are repeated several times, and the volume becomes intense and rapid from low to high.

It was never a race of perpetual peace, and it was never a people of much favor.

The audience watched the people in the music experience the sky collapsed, the rivers stopped flowing, the sun was shining in the sky, and the flood was raging...

A pipa solo.Xu Qiao used a lot of techniques of full wheel, sweeping, and pushing and pulling strings, and the sound like tearing silk echoed in the ears of the audience.

They don't need to be favored, they continue to fight for survival, and they grow stronger in countless disasters.

……

The flowing notes are continuous, showing the vitality and pulse of the ancient oriental nation, revealing the breath and ups and downs of the yellow land.

Very oriental charm, magnificent and unique, magnificent symphony.

The sun and menstruation pass through the sky, rivers and rivers travel across the earth, and what lasts forever is the movement of life.

"..."

Maltz, who was in the middle of the judges' seat, let out a long sigh of relief. He finally understood what Xu Qiao had said to him earlier, and he understood what it meant after listening to this song.

How can a person who can make such a tune succumb and die so easily.

Xu Qiao has a stronger will than anyone else, and he is strong enough to stand side by side with the most outstanding music masters in history.The music of this era will shine brightly because of him.

The last note falls.

Silence, endless silence.

After a long time, someone in the jury sighed softly: "It's incredible..."

Incredible.

This is a symphony that can make even the most unimaginative person imagine the magnificent picture.

It is a movement of life, a movement of life for a nation or the entire human race.

Everyone in the folk orchestra looked at each other, with tears of excitement in their eyes.

They did it, and the folk orchestra will no longer be a "bad imitation". They let the world see the brilliance of folk music.

This will be a highlight in the history of folk music.

[Oh My God……]

[Is this really a symphony that humans can compose? ]

[It's so good, I can't find any adjectives to describe it]

[How can those stupid music critics think that Xu Qiao has the idea of ​​committing suicide, the vitality of this symphony is too tenacious]

In the lounge, Lucas calmed down after listening to "Nu Wa".

He knew that there was no suspense for the gold medal of this exchange meeting.

After being slightly shocked, he and his companions accepted this fact.

"It's time for us to go on stage." Lucas smiled, "Enjoy the stage."

Everyone in the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra punched each other, and the expressions on their faces became relaxed.This group of performers passed by the Chinese orchestra who stepped down, with relaxed smiles of admiration on their faces.

The audience is still guessing, which symphony Lucas will choose?

I saw two lines of words appear on the big screen: "Symphony of New Life".Composer: Lucas.

It's a new symphony!

newborn.It is also a symphony about life.

Xu Qiao and Lucas, these two talented performers and composers, were surprisingly unanimous in their choice of repertoire at this exchange meeting.

First death, then new life.

This has to be regarded as a good story.

Because there is no obsession with the gold medal anymore, the performance of the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra was completely relaxed and devoted, and achieved an even better performance than expected.

After the performance, Lucas no longer had the previous arrogance on his face, and he bowed deeply.

The judges looked at each other and sighed.

Symphony composition is complex.First of all, the composer must be familiar with the performance skills of each instrument, and then the orchestration, harmony, musical form, polyphony... these must be taken into consideration.

The creation of such a large-scale symphony is a great squeeze on the brain. Without a deep musical foundation and strong willpower, it will never be successfully completed.

There is a saying that a person can only write nine symphonies in his life, which is enough to explain the difficulty of his creation.

But Lucas completed, "Natural Symphony", or "Lucas Symphony No. [-]", this is undoubtedly a symphony that is enough to be included in the textbook level.

Emotional and powerful, it ends with the sound of church bells and a hymn-like melody that touches the heart.

As expected of Lucas, who is known as a musical prodigy, he already has the demeanor of a contemporary music master.In any previous exchange meeting, he is enough to become the focus of everyone's attention.

But this year, there was one Xu Qiao.

From the first "Moon Night in Gusu" to the last "Nuwa", the three new symphonies are better than the other, overshadowing the light of all orchestras.

This session of the exchange meeting is destined to be the stage of the folk orchestra, and it is destined to be the stage of Xu Qiao.

He is a genius of genius, and those who can compare with him are not in this exchange meeting, but should look to the past and the future.Perhaps only in this way can we find a music master who can stand shoulder to shoulder with him.
