Golden Greenery

Zhuo Yang and Ricardo Muti said goodbye, walked out of the Florence Mayflower Opera House, and chose a direction outside the gate, and walked away from here.

Although it's still midsummer, Italy's sunny days are not scorching at all. The sunlight seems to have a breath of sea, spilling on the arms and cheeks, as if the lovers are touching. The breeze from the Mediterranean Sea seems to be playing with the world, Zhuo Yang walks aimlessly in the light of the wind.

Tomorrow is the last day of August. This season Serie A starts a little late. Tomorrow night AC Milan will usher in the season opener in San Siro. The first round opponent is Bologna.

September is the start of the school season. Freshmen and old students from each university report back to school these two days. Today is the team’s rest day. Zhuo Yang originally planned to return to Hanover Music University today to see if he could do something for his younger students. The professors did not like the mess, but the mentor Mr. Norman let him come to Florence Visit Mr. Muti.

It has been two years from Hanover to Milan, and the reason for leaving two years ago was because of the limitations in creation. In order to broaden his horizons, to see more scenery, to meet more people and more things, to travel through music, read thousands of books and travel thousands of miles, Zhuo Yang left Hanover and also left Fort Maddie.

But two years passed in a hurry, it can't be said that there was no progress, but Zhuo Yang couldn't really make a breakthrough in his creation, and he didn't have a music of his own.

In the past two years, Zhuo Yang has piled up many etudes, some of which are still of high quality, and the professors have praised them. If Zhuo Yang can become an admirable piano master after many years, the few etudes will rise and follow Liu Fang Baishi. If Zhuo Yang can’t, then they will be little known, and slowly disappear, as if never before.

Etudes are just a combination of various performance skills and emotions, and can be long or short, do not emphasize the layout, and are not a complete movement. It is like a writer who is growing and tempering, using imitation and reference, or even plagiarism, a pile of chicken soup and beautiful texts and seasonal novels.

If Lu Xun did not have "The True Story of Ah Q" and "Diary of a Madman", the world would not know that he still had many spicy essays, and there would be no Lu Xun in the world, only a teacher named Zhou Shuren.

Zhuo Yang needs breakthroughs in feeling and perception, and needs a deep touch on the world around him and even the universe. He needs this change to bring him irresistible creative impulses time after time.

Zhuo Yang wants to create a movement from the soul, and that is the music that really belongs to him.

However, two years later, Zhuo Yang has never been able to find a breakthrough point of inspiration. The colorful buds in the garden have never met the last ray of sunshine that can make the flowers bloom.

Zhuo Yang often talked about his own troubles with his mentor Professor Norman, and Karl Norman was helpless about this. He suggested Zhuo Yang to leave Hanover more than two years ago. At that time, Norman did not expect that. There are no works in the belly, but there should be one or two jerky and slightly childish songs.

So Norman remembered Ricardo Muti.

The 67-year-old Ricardo Muti is one of Italy's most famous conductors and composers. He is currently the chief conductor of the Chamber Orchestra of Florence Mayflower Opera House, and also serves as a number of Opera Houses in France and Italy. And the honorary conductor of the band.

Mr. Muti attended the Milan Conservatory of Music when he was young, and traveled to European classical music after graduation. When he began to try to create, he also encountered Zhuo Yang's current predicament. In the course of ten years, Mr. Muti has never been able to compose a piece of music that can satisfy himself.

At the age of 38, Mr. Muti suddenly learned a trick and wrote ten high-quality music pieces in a year and a half, covering a wide range of styles, successfully dwelling among the well-known contemporary composers, and becoming a piece of classic music. .

Ricardo Muti's experience may inspire Zhuo Yang in a difficult situation. Professor Norman and he are friends in the industry. When I contacted by phone, I learned that he had just been stationed in the Mayflower Opera House recently, and immediately took this line for his students. Let Zhuo Yang visit him to see if he can get some pointers and lessons.

After receiving the news yesterday, Zhuo Yang was full of anticipation for this meeting with the master, much like when he was still in Class C Maddie a few years ago, he learned that he would meet Sforza and Klose the next day. The captivated mood of becoming a famous star. However, after seeing Mr. Muti humbly asking for advice, Zhuo Yang was somewhat disappointed. It was far less rewarding than playing with Sforza and Klose in the German Football Association Cup that year.

Ricardo Mutiruja is humble and approachable, but he is not very talkative. He even has some indifference. In the exchange between the two, Zhuo Yang is leading the topic, otherwise he will fall into an embarrassing cold field. Mr. Muti couldn't explain why he was there. He talked on and off for a long time. The core idea is actually one word-wait!

Let Zhuo Yang wait patiently. He himself had waited for ten years. Zhuo Yang was only 23 years old, and then he continued to wait until the day when it came to fruition.

In addition to this, ~www.readwn.com~ Mr. Muti didn't give any advice, it seems that this trip was run in vain. Originally planned for a whole day of communication, it soon became boring, and Zhuo Yang could no longer find any topic near noon. After courteously inviting Muti to have lunch together — it is reasonable to say that Zhuo Yang is a guest, it should be Muty's invitation — Zhuo Yang resigned as if relieved.

The scheduled flight back to Milan is at more than five o'clock in the afternoon, a minibus from Milan to Hanover to Stockholm. There is nothing wrong with returning to Milan, Zhuo Yang did not go to change the sign in advance. He loved the city of Florence, and took advantage of the rare afternoon leisure to walk slowly.

In addition to two league away games, Zhuo Yang also visited Feileng Cui twice before today. Once, he was dragged over by his teacher and niece Fia Meta last spring to see the Renaissance painting exhibition at the Uffizi Art Museum. meaning. That day Fia Metta tried to stay in Florence for the night, which was her lovely and cunning purpose, but was eventually tricked into the train back to Milan by Zhuo Yang Huayan.

Another time, last fall, Zhuo Yang made a special trip to Michelangelo Square’s own left bank branch alone to admire the fantastic dream flower alley opposite. Autumn is the most colorful season. Zhuo Yang likes autumn and that flower alley. He sat quietly and watched it all afternoon.

After walking through the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore, I went back to see the quiet and elegant Piti Palace Popoli Garden. Although it was not yet autumn, Zhuo Yang decided to go to Michelangelo Square and take a look at the enchanting flower alley. .
