Old-time musicians

In fact, as the three of them read more and more messages and notes, they gradually discovered that

There is far more discussion about this impressionist art exhibition than the performance, even if the current timeline is only the first day, even if the current message area is under the concert poster.

And when it comes to 30% of the concert, it’s basically a good review of the finished film, the premiere of the great new steel collaboration, the timeless charm of “Lee”, and even Miss Lausanne’s new vocabulary, which is carefully chosen for the best.

Probably because of the symphony, so many gentlemen and ladies in formal attire performed it with all their heart, and the collision and blending of woodwinds, brass, strings and pianos under the conductor's baton could hardly be accused of being "inelegant" or "immoral".

But more intuitive art

For 70% of the comments about the Impressionism Art Exhibition, there is a considerable proportion of criticism.

"The word impression makes me tell myself; since I have felt the impression, there must be some impression in it. What a free and easy craft! The rough wall paper is also better than Reno Claude's "Seascape" "Gradient" is more complete, maybe I can also try to paste the photo directly."

There are also cautious praises: "I saw Pissarro Cumier's paintings. He is an example for us to stick to our own principles. He explores real tones in his paintings. This is worthy of our praise. People will start to respect this person." A true tone.”

But the following was posted mercilessly: "No, no, no, studying the shape of things, perspective and the relationship between light and shade are the three most important things. They are the indispensable foundation of art. Color and brushwork can make the work more charming and appealing. I like it, but it just makes the work more charming and lovable.”

Fan Ning's collection of "The Concert After Lunch" can be said to have directly attracted more than half of the firepower on its own.

Discussions on the topic of Marais' painting were posted in a new area, and some were posted directly under other people's notes.

There are several bunches of large candied haws hanging.

There are not many sharp voices who directly denounce it as "obscene", but there are also many who are euphemistic or implicitly sarcastic.

"Forgive us that we cannot think that this is a very pure work. A young gentleman wearing a suit and holding a violin under the tree is sitting opposite a girl wearing only the shadow of leaves. This is only a minor issue, which is more eye-catching than the picture itself. What is suspicious is that the purpose of the painting is obvious. Mr. Edouard Mallet, who has depraved tastes, hopes to become famous by shocking the citizens."

Joan looked at the "After Lunch Concert" that had just been carried by the staff, her face flushed and she curled her lips: "I also think this painting looks a bit disturbing to me, but Carolan's vision should not be the same. problematic"

"The question now is, what to do with these messages?" Sheeran cleared her throat and pretended to be calm, "Are you sure you want to keep or even publish a collection? Caroln, you have a good relationship with the mainstream media. I don't think it's necessary. through this"

"No, these are all very exciting points of view and very exciting discussions." Fan Ning shook his head with a smile.

If the response on the first day of the world's first Impressionist art exhibition was a chorus of praise, then Fanning might have felt tainted and dazzled.

"You see, these critics were not refuted, but the refuting people were refuted, and after being refuted, they started to defend their views. How wonderful and amazing!"

Xilan and Qiong carefully read the contents on the "candied haws skewers" and their eyes gradually widened. The two little girls had never seen such a direct conflict and real-time "war" on this topic:

"The purpose of the painter? No, do not interchange the concepts of "purpose" and "theme". For the public, the theme of the painting is everything, but for the painter, the theme is just an excuse for the painting, "Music after Lunch" "The Meeting" is just an opportunity for Mr. Marais to draw the female body, nothing more."

"That's right. M. Mallet's talent consisted of simplicity and propriety. Rejecting all acquired science, rejecting all ancient experience, he understood art from the beginning: by carefully observing the object, he made himself brave It was his purpose to face the subjects directly, see them as blocks and contrasts under natural light, and then paint what they saw.”

"Okay, let's assume that our purpose is to appreciate the female body, then why don't we appreciate the warm light created by Master Ashir through layers of translucent pigments and oils? Those shaping methods embody the "fire that does not fall" "The teachings make their bodies look soft and tactile. Looking back at the human body in Mr. Mallet's paintings, not only is the posture unflattering, but she is also illuminated from the front by a dazzling light, making her skin look so pale, creating a brown color. The shadows are so abrupt”

"So what's the problem with all this? You needed to draw a body, so you chose the two women who appeared before you; you needed some bright, glowing dots, so you drew the canvas and the bouquet; you needed some black blocks What does it mean to have a black cat and a violin case at the far end of the perspective? You don't know, and neither do I, but I know that the impressionists Mallet and Claude succeeded in painting it. Paintings belonging to painters, even paintings belonging to great painters, vividly and powerfully interpret the essence of light and shadow, objects and people in a special language."

"Gentlemen! I believe that what we are worried about is not the content, but the technical treatment: when we discuss the human body, we should discuss the image of a religious woman with an elegant posture, reserved behavior, and holy face, rather than a prostitute-like woman with a proud, artificial and indifferent demeanor without any sense of classical beauty, especially with flowers, musical instruments, and a pile of stripped clothes carefully painted next to her!!! This makes it difficult for us to believe that those who call it "appreciation" have a higher moral standard."

"Hey? The above gentleman's remarks seem to imply that the audience has a depraved part in their subconscious, which is intolerable. People who often hold such remarks are accustomed to standing in front of classical oil paintings, using moral themes to cover up the vulgarity of their appreciation of the human body, and they themselves are not aware of this sexual repression. Look at the logic of this gentleman: putting the same female body in different narrative scenes or lighting environments, so that they have moral differences?"

The two girls were stunned.

The last piece of paper posted on this post seemed to have a certain "destructive power", so no one followed up on this string of "candied haws" so far, and the debates at other angles on the wall continued.

"Look at the collision of these views, I can't help but want to applaud." Fanning smiled frankly, "In this era full of changes, such voices are needed. I will include them in the collection of selected comments and indicate the events, people and time, so that they can be remembered in the long river of art history. And did you notice a detail--"

The two girls looked at the place where Fanning's finger pointed.

"Among these commenters are a large number of media, critics, collectors and academics! Even the names of academic artists appear not only on the negative views, but also on the positive views!"

"You have to know that in the field of art, views are valuable, established authoritative views are valuable, and the confrontation process before the final conclusion is more valuable. Views come from thinking, they are thinking, and everyone has started to think."

"This is only the first day. The value of this frontier will be realized by more and more people, and I think that the investors with the most sensitive sense of smell have already marked the prices of some works in their minds, just waiting to make a move in the middle and late stages of the exhibition."

In fact, these people acted faster than Fanning thought. On the third day when there was no performance, 26 works were suddenly posted with bidding strips.

According to the average number of participating painters, on average, each person has 3 works entering the market.

Their prices are generally between 200 and 500 pounds, and the works in the first "sound and painting combination", "Fountain of Fontainebleau Palace" by Claude and "Rain in the Oak Forest" by Cumier, were bid 1,100 pounds and 1,000 pounds respectively!

When Fanning reminded Claude that his wish of "selling a certain work for a four-digit high price" that day came true on the third day, the expression on the painter's face was so wonderful.

The only one who seemed a little miserable was Marais, whose other paintings had not been bid for the time being.

I don't know if it was caused by the controversy of "The Concert After Lunch".

It was on this day, when everyone was strolling in the open art venue, the mainstream media noticed this "message wall".

Thoroughly, with a sense of importance, rather than some practitioners participating in the discussion in their personal names before.

First, take photos. The image of the starting corner of this corridor was recorded by waves of reporters with photographic equipment, and many people with a keen sense of smell deliberately left a side view extending to the subsequent posters.

This approach seems to be planning to display all future performances of Turner Hall in the form of a timeline? And then let citizens participate in the discussion in the corresponding lower area?

The extended corridor of the Symphony Hall is so large that it is definitely possible from a spatial perspective. At least record the performances in the next five years before going back in a circle.

This Fanning artistic director... when you think he will repeat the idea that was a big success last time, he took a new idea and succeeded again.

And when you think this time it will finally come to the end, he has another completely unexpected move!

This is just like his endless creative inspiration!

Then there is the content. The media has already excerpted some of the wonderful conversations in their urgent reports.

Yes, when Fanning's own "Selected Works" was still at the conceptual stage.

The spontaneous generation of citizens and the secondary forwarding of the media have spread these fierce ideological collision sites from the wall of the symphony hall to countries around the world... Of course, the unprecedented premiere of the "First Piano Concerto in B-flat Minor" has also spread.

There are also many voices that claim to be "rational" or "reserved", and still believe that the ten concerto premieres are "fabricated gimmicks". They believe that Turner Hall's operating strategy is to use "high-quality first and last tracks" to support the voice and gain support, and then use "the number in the middle to fill the workload of a music season."

In other words, although they recognize the amazing creative talent of the conductor Fanning, they do not think that he can maintain the same quality as the first great piano concerto for those works in the ordinary numerical sequence.

When attaching the schedule, some media's information pages are particularly "scheming" to enlarge the font size of "1" and "10", and secretly reduce the font size of "2-9".

So right after "Tchaikovsky No. 1", Fanning arranged "Tchaikovsky Xiaoxie" for the second concert tonight.

Anyway, the artistic atmosphere of the northern continent is similar to that of Russia in the previous life. It is reasonable to play two representative works of Tchaikovsky in a row to open up the atmosphere, right?

The applause and coughs subsided, and Fanning pinched a corner of the score and instructed the band to start the prelude in a chic manner.

The broad lyrical melody of the first movement is presented in a bright and melodious poetic way. It is close to the fragrance of the early spring soil and the intoxication of ice and snow, and gradually brings the feelings of sadness and joy in the changing colors.

And Sheeran, under the spotlight, played a desolate and affectionate piano sound at the beginning, which instantly contrasted the optimistic and heroic spirit of the Hoffman nation with the sensitive and melancholy inner character in a dramatic way.

The passionate and melancholy, yearning and implicit chromatic sub-theme, and the affectionate solo cadenza melted the snow on the black land and the floating ice on the Psel River with a certain introspective power, and the flute that returned from silence was like the sunshine projected from the clouds, gradually leading the first movement to a grand finale with the orchestra.

The woodwind group and the French horn blew the wind of sorrow, and the solo violin ran through the second movement with a sad melody from beginning to end.

The audience, who were so excited that they could hardly restrain themselves, were gradually entangled and wrapped in a melancholy mood.

At dusk, the border checkpoint, the gray-brown obelisk, the dead leaves blown by the wind, the dilapidated hotel and church in the distance are soaked in the twilight, and the traveler leaning on the sled gazes at the dim sky in the distance...

The major key in the middle section adds a touch of brightness to the music, leisurely thoughts, and the vast memories are surrounded by a slightly empty depth, just like the deep forests painted by naturalistic painters...

In the finale, the woodwind group and the French horn play the introduction again and gradually return to tranquility.

For such music, you should be grateful after listening to the first one or two movements, but the carnival still comes as promised.

The finale is a very lively allegro. The band leads the dance of the violin with repeated and urgent emotions. The strong dynamic rhythm, extremely variable speed, perfectly symmetrical symphonic sound, and extremely brilliant finale... The emotional audience once again gave the most enthusiastic cheers to Miss Sheeran.

At this time, those "reserved attitude" voices were completely dead.

One note after another was posted on the message wall of the second concert poster by the fans who left.

"I think if the position is reversed and this violin concerto appears at the opening performance the day before, there will be no problem, right?"

Some people who are interested in doing something more hurtful.

He obviously bought the publications and newspapers of the first few days in advance, and directly cut out the "rational speech" articles of some media with scissors!

Then he directly glued it on his message post as a "quote reply".

"Oh my God, who gave this gentleman the courage to question the quality of the "D major concerto" written by a composer who wrote the "e minor concerto"? "

The art world's reputation has changed, and it has withdrawn from the debate on impressionism, and praised Conductor Fanning for becoming a leading creator of romantic music.

On the third and fourth nights, they heard two premieres with great authentic beauty!

The "First Cello Concerto in C Major" performed by Miss Roy, the principal cellist, was sweet or gorgeous, with a courtly atmosphere, optimistic and bright music with humor, balanced and restrained classical interpretation, and impeccable skills... All of this matched her noble and elegant temperament so well, and it was so fascinating!

The "First Flute Concerto in G Major" performed by Miss Joan, the principal flute, was a pure spiritual baptism. Every phrase uttered by the girl was shining with agile and light sparks. Those clever and brisk tonguing and running were coherent, complete, smooth and natural, without any artificial makeup. Every sentence was so sincere and real, and every subtle psychological change was vividly expressed with notes!

"The old symphony orchestra really produced talents..."

The content on the message wall continued to extend forward.

Don Yetus, editor-in-chief of Theoline Cultural Weekly, left a comment on Fanning's professionalism, objectivity and generous praise on the fourth night:

"When the orchestra of this composer and conductor began to play, all the instruments were talking. Each subordinate part may be insignificant in the works of other composers, but after Carloen Fanning's skillful hands, it often became a major part that was crucial. As long as he thought it was necessary to adjust it, it immediately became fascinating in our hearing, and no longer the original rigid appearance... Look, music with counterpoint and music without counterpoint are completely different!"

And when the legendary pianist "Li" appeared again on the fifth night to bring everyone the "Piano Concerto No. 2 in C Minor", the audience was deeply drawn into it by the suppressed, deep and violent power, and when the music unfolded from the pain and sang loudly, more and more audiences shed tears in their seats.

The people of Theolian in the north may really have a sadomasochistic plot like the Slavic people in the previous life.

Without obstacles, one cannot turn to the sun, and without pain, one cannot feel love.

"La Er" has such strong emotions and such deep pain... Fanning and "Li"'s joint performance that night had a really strong impact on the audience's emotions.

When the magnificent picture of the northern land slowly unfolded, the boundless wilderness, the desolate and dilapidated roads, the heavy and low-hanging clouds, the violent shock and the sad and regretful melancholy began to shine together.

The tiny traveler ran between the vast sky and earth, and the surging sorrow was bottomless.

There were many touching things on this night, which appeared on the message wall.

"How noble! The hope it gives is like a gorgeous sunset. Although it is just a glimmer of afterglow before the night comes, it is the most important bright color in life."

And the sincere words left by a music fan triggered a strong resonance among countless citizens and were reprinted by major media:

"Thanks to the "Piano Concerto No. 2 in C Minor", how could I have thought that I, a mediocre person, my sad life, would one day be able to go to the sky to see the glory of the morning sun and the bright moon, and to see the land under our feet. Nothing can't pass. For the first time in my life, I am so close to the glory. Even if everything will be lost and nothing will last forever, I feel that I can be redeemed."
