Mr. Conte can be stubborn at times and his views are more academic.
Of course, in fact, there is no virtuoso sect in the mysterious world now, and Mr. Conti’s view is the mainstream view in this world.
The development of the virtuoso movement required many factors, such as the violin's make, the way it was held, and the performance setting's transformation from the palace to the music salon to the concert hall. In the development process of the mysterious world, there is no chance for Paganini-like characters to appear.
At least in the Fifth Age, no matter in the Northern or Southern Continent, there was no Baroque violin with a beautiful and elegant way of holding the violin but restricting the movement of the left hand. This is the fault of Emperor Russell. Although Emperor Russell may not have made much achievements in the field of music due to his original musical literacy, he has a strong sense of presence when it comes to musical instruments. Whether it is the violin or the piano, behind their appearance there is the participation of Emperor Russell.
Before the time of Emperor Russell, only violin prototypes similar to Viol were developed. And Emperor Russell successfully made a violin. Because the violin made by Russell the Great had better sound and could use more playing skills, the violin gradually replaced the originally developed violin system and was sought after by many musicians.
At first it was at the palace concert. The violin quickly spread in the concerts of aristocrats from various countries because of the aristocratic style of showing off. After Emperor Russell the Great initiated the Industrial Revolution, violins spread to middle-class households. With the gradual rise of public concerts, the violin has also become a frequent guest in concerts. Likewise, the piano and violin have developed in much the same way.
The opposite of what happened to the piano and violin was the guitar. Compared with the piano and violin, the guitar seems a bit too "people-friendly", and its function sometimes overlaps with that of the fenepot. The arrogant nobles thought that "we have the lute" was enough, so the guitar became a niche instrument. In the past two hundred years, there has never been an opportunity to successfully develop it. Perhaps this has something to do with the times.
Unfortunately, because the industrial revolution initiated by Emperor Russell was too fast, the time in between was shortened rapidly, and the violin was not able to develop more mature techniques in such a short period of time to wait for the genius to flourish. Although the civil class in the great changes are keen to use the popular concerts of the aristocrats to show their status, they do not have enough time to settle down and cannot immediately have enough appreciation ability to appreciate those high-tech music. Those who have just left the palace concerts Violinists only cautiously explored the methods of holding music salons and public concerts. Although music is a common language for all human beings, there is no doubt that the emerging citizen class prefers more infectious music.
It is a pity that in this era, there is no leader like Paganini who can not only show off his skills, but also make his playing burst out with powerful appeal. Up to now, in the entire field of violin, it has undoubtedly become a matter of political correctness that technique cannot harm musicality.
Agnes laughed enough and picked up the piano. She removed the fast and long-span string crossings in the earlier and later parts of the passage, and instead expressed them through other forms of variations, leaving only the middle part. part.
In fact, the reason why she used such a fast and long-span string-crossing technique before was because she found that her endurance had greatly increased, and she was not tired at all by using fast and long-span string crossings, so she accidentally used it too much.
Mr. Conti listened carefully to Agnes's performance, tapping his hands from time to time.
“That sounds better,” Mr. Conti said with a smile.
Mr. Conti took the piano from Agnes and said, "I think we can try this for bars 10-14."
He played bars 10-14 again, then looked at Agnes.
Agnes thought carefully for a while and said, "Maybe we can try it..."
Before Agnes finished speaking, there was a knock on the door.
All three people in the room looked at the door, and Agnes walked over and opened the door.
Outside the door was Marcono, who pressed his chest and saluted.
"Mr. Conti, Agnes," he hesitated slightly and said, "Someone came to Mr. Aurelio Pagani and said that he had not finished handling the matter today and asked him to go back and deal with it."
Agnes subconsciously looked at Aurelio, who had been sitting there for a long time. He was now frowning. Agnes felt that if there were not two people in the room that he was not very familiar with, he would have started wailing by now.
Agnes couldn't help but curl her lips. She looked at Aurelio and said, "It seems that father is not willing to grant you this holiday. You'd better go back as soon as possible."
Aurelio sighed and said: "Okay. But, you will do it later..."
"As long as the carriage comes to pick me up," Agnes said with a smile.
"Okay, then I'll leave first." Aurelio did not hesitate after hearing this. After all, he also knew that ordinary people could not hurt Agnes at all.
He bade farewell to Agnes and Signor Conti, and went downstairs, followed by Marcono.
Mr. Conte did not close the doors again.
Mr. Conti sat down on the sofa and said, "It looks like your brother is very busy."
Agnes smiled and said, "It's mainly because my father is busy. Aurelio took over some of his father's affairs, so he also became busy."
Mr. Conti didn't say anything. He looked at Agnes and said, "Let's continue discussing your two pieces of music. You just said how you plan to modify bars 10-14?"
Agnes smiled and took the piano that Mr. Conti had just placed on the coffee table, continued the previous topic, and played bars 10-14 according to her own ideas.
Mr. Conti smiled and said: "Your idea is very good, you can try it. We will set this section as this for the time being. We will go through the entire piece first and then look at it as a whole."
"Okay, then, I want to deal with sections 18-26 like this..." Agnes smiled sheepishly and talked about her next revision ideas.
...
Agnes put down her violin and looked at Mr. Conti.
The modifications of the two pieces of music have basically been completed, and Agnes has just played them completely again.
Mr. Conti, who was listening to Agnes's performance seriously, seemed to be in a daze. Even when Agnes stopped playing and looked at him, he didn't know it. He just looked blankly in Agnes' direction.
"Mr. Conti." Agnes called softly.
Mr. Conti came back to his senses, smiled a little apologetically, and said, "I'm sorry, I accidentally got distracted just now."
