King of Classical Music

Tchaikovsky's "Sixth Symphony in B minor" has an alias, called "Pathetic Symphony".

Different from Beethoven's "Pathetique" piano sonata, this "Pathetique Symphony" does not have the strong and fortitude of the former, and is always low and depressed. Tchaikovsky described the epitome of his life into it, leaving behind The last swan song of -

Six days after the premiere of the piece, Tchaikovsky committed suicide by taking poison.

This piece is divided into four movements, of which the third movement can be regarded as the most joyful and enthusiastic. busy scene.

Bo Ai is undoubtedly very good. According to Kedoli's words just now, it seems that the orchestra has not rehearsed the third movement yet.But Qi Mu sat in the auditorium and listened, but he didn't feel that something was wrong at all. Except for some occasional mistakes in emotional expression, there were very few typos, rushed shots, missed shots, etc., which were pitifully rare.

If this level is placed in an ordinary orchestra, it must have been rehearsed for at least two days.

——Qi Mu couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

The absolute sense of pitch and super ear power allow Qi Mu to distinguish every sound in the orchestra. He can feel that the orchestra has been a little rusty from the beginning, but it has gradually become harmonious in the end. The movement is played as if it has been trained countless times.

And all of this...Qi Mu knew that it was definitely not just because of the excellence of this band.

He turned his head to look at the man standing on the podium. From Qi Mu's position, he could only see Min Chen's tall and straight back. He watched the man gently raise his baton, and the cello played a gentle melody. The sound; he pressed his arm down again, the stringed instrument suddenly stopped sounding, and the wind instrument played.

A conductor can control the music of the audience, and an excellent conductor can make the music of the audience compose according to his wishes.

Off the stage, the young man couldn't help but raised the corners of his lips and laughed.

On the stage, Min Chen frowned and looked towards the clarinet in the woodwind group.One of the brown-haired men who was hanging his clarinet trembled nervously, and quickly looked at the score in front of him more seriously.

There was another terrible wrong sound next to his ear, Min Chen narrowed his eyes dangerously, and looked at a woman with a ponytail in the first violin group.The latter immediately trembled all over, his back straightened.

The entire third movement is only a short 9 minutes, but everyone in the whole Bo Ai except Kedori, I am afraid that everyone has raised their hearts, for fear that they have made a mistake.As for those who have already made mistakes...

They had already prayed silently in their hearts.

At the end of the song, the clarinetist who made a mistake for the first time looked up at his conductor in grief and anger, waiting for the other party's accusation resignedly.

But what everyone didn't expect was that this handsome and noble man gently put down the baton in his hand today, then raised his head to look in the direction of the clarinet, and said softly, "Roger, are you catching a cold today?" ?”

The man named Roger nodded quickly: "Yes, Commander, I had a cold today, so I accidentally just now..." As soon as he said this, Roger shook his head violently, and explained again and again: "No! Mr. Bertram, even if I have a cold, I shouldn't make the mistake of coughing, if the cold is really serious, I should ask for leave!"

Roger can remember that the last time Martha had a cold, during rehearsal, not only slipped the bow in her hand on the strings, but also sneezed heavily, forcing the whole piece to stop suddenly.At that time... how did the conductor say——

"If you have a cold, drink plenty of water. Do you burn out your brain or have no brain at all, so you insist on coming to the band with your illness?"Go home now! 』

However, Roger admitted his mistake so frankly today, and was ready to be reprimanded, unexpectedly he heard a gentle voice: "Well, you should take a good rest when you are sick, Roger, Remember to drink plenty of water, don't make the cold worse."

Roger: "...Huh?!"

Bo Ai everyone: "...???!!!"

But after a while, Min Chen turned his head to look in the direction of the violin group, and asked softly, "Alice, did you miss a note in the third verse just now?"

With a mournful face, Alice kept apologizing: "I'm sorry, Mr. Bertram, I'm not very familiar with the third movement. I'll practice it fluently when I go back tonight, and it will definitely not delay the progress of the orchestra! I'm really sorry! "

Min Chen nodded calmly, with a gentle tone: "You have performed very well, Alice, it's just that you missed a small overtone, which is very high, and it's understandable for you to make mistakes all of a sudden. Don't worry, let's train slowly."

Alice: "...Huh?!"

Bo Ai everyone: "...????!!!!"

Speaking of which, Commander...did he take some wrong medicine today?

Recalling how Dorenza and Allen used to guide the members, Min Chen gave instructions to everyone in the orchestra with no expression on his face but a gentle voice.This situation is like the earth rejuvenating and the ice and snow melting, making the members of Bo Ai feel the warmth from heaven.

Min Chen nodded in satisfaction, then turned to look in the direction of the auditorium.This look...

The temperature dropped by ten degrees! ! !

I saw Qi Mu's shadow on the auditorium seat in that simple style, needless to say, there is not even a ghost!

Kedori coughed dumbfoundedly, and said kindly: "Oston, it seems that just after the end of the music... Daniel called him out." The implication is that when you start to comment, People are gone.

Min Chen: "..."

But for a moment, the man with a cold handsome face picked up his baton again with a cold expression.

"Let's practice again, whoever made a mistake this time, copy the score for me ten times."

Bo Ai everyone: "..."

Say good rest!

It's justifiable to say yes! !

How gentle and kind! ! !

Little angel, why did you leave just like that? ! ! ! !

---------

Qi Mu was called out of the rehearsal hall by Daniel just after the music ended.

Although he didn't understand why the other party suddenly asked him for something, but since the rehearsal of the song was over, Qi Mu got up and followed the other party without hesitation.

There are more than one door to the rehearsal hall, except for the backstage aisle, there are a total of six doors for people to walk through.When Qi Mu followed Daniel and walked out through the middle door, he was surprised to find——

Outside the huge floor-to-ceiling windows, a white jade belt-like river runs through the city gently, dividing it into two pieces.

As if aware of Qi Mu's gaze, Daniel looked out through the glass window and said with a smile: "Oh, that's the Spree River, and you can see the part of it that hasn't yet merged into the Havel River from the Bo Ai headquarters. You I came in from the corridor on the other side just now, so I didn't see it."

The corridor on this side is similar to the one that Qi Mu walked through just now, the only difference is that there are no photos of Bo Ai's previous conductors, chiefs and other members hanging on both sides of the corridor.

In such a well-lit corridor, Qi Mu looked at the sun that had started to set not far away, and asked, "Daniel, long time no see, I don't know... What are you looking for me for?"

Daniel didn't hide anything, and asked bluntly: "Actually... little angel, are you already with Min?"

This question came very abruptly, Qi Mu was also slightly taken aback, and then smiled and said: "Well, we are already together." After a pause, he added: "You can call me Xiaoqi, the name Angel is really It's Mr Farrar's prank."

Daniel immediately widened his eyes sadly when he heard the words, and said, "Oh my God, have you really forgotten, little angel? When I heard your solo for the first time in Huaxia City B at the end of last year, I called you this The name is gone! How could there be anything about Master Fale at that time!"

Seeing the heartbroken look of the other party, Qi Mu was speechless for a while, then he could only nod his head and said: "Yes, yes, I forgot..." After hesitating for a while, Qi Mu tentatively asked: "How about, You still call... this name?"

Daniel nodded heavily: "Little angel, when Min took two days off yesterday, I was still thinking, if you don't accept him... what kind of terrible things we will experience when he returns to the orchestra tomorrow. "

Hearing this, Qi Mu was slightly stunned: "...Min Chen's temper, is it really bad?"

In Qi Mu's impression, the first time he met Min Chen, the other party was very enthusiastic to hold him, so that he did not fall into the traffic and cause a disaster; the second time he met, the other party was even more afraid of bugs He was so scared that he didn't even dare to enter the door of the apartment. Can such a person be scary?

Later, when he was in Hong Kong City, Min Chen kindly told him about Mr. Swell's favorite tunes, and even instructed him how to play them.

Since then, there have been countless similar incidents, which is enough to prove: Even if Min Chen is not a very friendly person, it is not scary, right?

Listening to Qi Mu's words, Daniel's blue eyes widened, and he exclaimed: "God! Little angel, are you praising a demon for being gentle? Did I hear you right? It's not just bad?! I can assure you , the people in the band have already been trained by him so that they dare not even take a breath, okay?"

Qi Mu: "..."

"Didn't you go to the Danube forum? Damn it, I thought that guy Min was not interested in reading other people's evaluations of him. He forgot that you are in Huaxia, little angel. You probably don't know about this forum." Danielton said. After a while, he continued, "In Europe, there is an online forum where classic lovers gather. A few years ago, they made two votes."

Qi Mu smiled and listened to Daniel continuing: "In short, the first vote is to select the conductor with the best temper. You should know No.1. It is Alan Swell from Newell. The other vote is to select the conductor with the best temper. Who is the worst tempered...Little angel, do you know who that No.1 is?"

Qi Mu smiled lightly and shook his head, uttering a name in his heart: ... Auston Bertram.

"It's Min Chen! I asked several friends to register and vote for him. If he wasn't the winner of this vote, those other bad-tempered conductors, such as Eff from the Vienna Symphony Orchestra you know Mr. La, how can you compare with him!"

Qi Mu: "...well, Daniel..."

"All in all, that guy Min has a bad temper. Don't look at his handsome appearance to you, in fact, he has a bad stomach and a poisonous tongue..."

Qi Mu smiled wryly: "Daniel, actually..."

"I know! In fact, you want to say, Min is a demon, right? Little angel, you finally got it right! If he is not a demon, then who else..."

"I am a demon?"

A deep and magnetic voice sounded from behind Daniel, with an elegant and calm tone, not in a hurry.

"...It turns out that you specially asked someone to help you vote back then?"

Daniel: "..."

little angel!Why didn't you say it earlier! ! !

Qi Mu: "..."

I just want to say, you have to let me speak...
