After seeing Griffin's Symphony Orchestra, Harvey understood that Murphy mocked Griffin.

The side hall, which can accommodate hundreds of people, is full of people. They hold all kinds of musical instruments, such as violin, Viola, cello, trombone, trumpet and so on. Their attitude is casual, chatting and laughing. In addition, there are men, women, young and old, each wearing casual clothes. The whole cross band seems to be pulling people in at random on the roadside.

Regular orchestras usually have a black suit, and there are no female performers. Even during the practice period, they will keep silent to prevent their voice from affecting other people.

Griffin enters the spacious side hall. The side hall quiets down. Members of the symphony orchestra look at Griffin and Harvey and Diana behind him and guess Harvey's identity one after another. Some musicians seem to recognize Harvey and stand up from their seats in surprise. They also discuss with their friends excitedly the reason why Harvey came here.

Griffin stood at the command desk at the bottom of the room, his sharp eyes swept over everyone, and he said coldly, "now, everyone, keep quiet."

I can hear the suppressed anger in my voice. I think I was angry by Murphy just now. Now I'm even more angry when I see this scene.

"These two are my guests, Mr. Harvey Adrian and his wife, Ms. Diana. They are here today to see the performance of our orchestra. All the members are sitting back and ready to play the symphony of destiny." Griffin picked up the baton on the table and waited for all the musicians to take their places. He raised his hands and suddenly waved them under the gaze of all the musicians.

"Deng Deng Deng ~!" The heavy and powerful ensemble music sounds together. No matter how many times you listen to it, it's like a heavy object pounding your heart, which makes you nervous.

Griffin, standing on the podium, waves his hands fiercely, showing the tense atmosphere created by the melody of symphony of fate, sometimes fast and sometimes gentle. He leads the rhythm of the symphony. The players sitting on the stage have unified actions, the bows are slow and fast, and the left hand skillfully plucks the strings. The simple and unified actions make people feel a strange aesthetic feeling.

Symphony is not only an art that can be heard, but also an art that can be seen.

After the performance, Griffin's stiff body suddenly lost strength. When he came down from the stage, his forehead exuded a lot of sweat. He took out his handkerchief and wiped it. He was not happy at all.

"I have to admit that I am still old." Griffin said to himself with a wry smile, and his body looked bent as he relaxed.

This performance may be very good to ordinary people, but as a conductor, he can hear the disharmonious tones in it, such as who didn't play the high violin, who played too fast bass, who didn't have enough strength when playing, who couldn't keep up with the rhythm of the ensemble, and so on. As Murphy said, this symphony orchestra is second rate at most, He is not qualified to play the symphony of fate.

Harvey and Diana stood up and applauded for the performance. Griffin announced that he would let the musicians practice freely and took Harvey to another conference room.

After sitting down, Griffin seemed to be a teenager, pale and ashamed to face Harvey.

Harvey comforted: "Mr. Griffin, you don't have to. It's a great thing to form an orchestra and successfully play the symphony of destiny in these months."

Griffin sighed and shook his head: "I can't be more clear about the situation of the orchestra. If it goes on like this, playing" Symphony of destiny "is far away. How can I play" Symphony No. 9 "? I'm ashamed of my selfishness. I begged you to give me the right to play. Now I've screwed it up. "

"In my opinion, it's a good performance. Mr. Griffin really wants to play these two symphonies. In this way, he doesn't live up to my friend's idea. Remember the first sentence in the score of symphony of fate?"

Griffin looked complicated and nodded: "it's the soul of this symphony. How can I forget it?"

Harvey said seriously, "Mr. Griffin, I don't think you know why this symphony is called" Symphony of fate "? Why is there such a sentence on the score? "

"My friend, you can say it directly."

Harvey's voice is sonorous and powerful, and his words contain deep admiration: "because Mr. Beethoven had ear disease when he wrote this symphony of fate. You know how painful it is for a musician. He alienated his relatives and friends and composed this symphony alone. He knows what happened to him very well, A musician favored by the God of music is suffering from fate. "

Griffin looked stunned, carefully recalled every syllable in the symphony score, and said to himself, "hold the throat of fate

The meaning behind this sentence is more than Griffin thought.

"What about Symphony No. 9?" he asked

"Yes, Symphony No. 9 was written by Mr. Beethoven after he could not hear the sound at all."

"No wonder so... No wonder so..." Griffin got up and walked back and forth for a long time with deep admiration: "I can't imagine what happened to Mr. Beethoven, but there is no doubt that Mr. Beethoven is a real musician, and only with such indomitable and noble spirit can he create such a symphony score! Mr. Adrian, thank you for your encouragement. Mr. Beethoven wrote this symphony after conquering his fate. I just praise his greatness. If I can't overcome these difficulties, I'm not qualified to play these two symphonies. "

Harvey said with a smile, "Mr. Griffin, in my opinion, there are other reasons for the uneven quality of your symphony orchestra, which should not have been a burden to your orchestra."

Griffin looked at Harvey in surprise and said, "what do you see?"

"You seem to lack support, especially financial support."

The fact that the costumes are not uniform, the quality of the staff is uneven, and even the musical instruments are brought by the musicians themselves is enough to explain the dilemma of the Griffin orchestra. If there is a lot of financial support, they can change into uniform costumes and musical instruments, or they can easily eliminate the musicians who are not serious and attract more professional musicians to join.

Griffin nodded with a heavy face and admitted: "yes, I have emptied my life savings and just bought the right to use the side hall. Behind every well-known Orchestra, there are some big chambers of Commerce or noble support, but no one is willing to bear the expensive price for an unknown Symphony Orchestra."

"That's why I'm here. I'd like to persuade count Henrietta to provide you with financial support, but I have something else I need your help." Harvey can provide financial support for Griffin on behalf of the Cromwell chamber of Commerce, but now the Cromwell chamber of commerce is in a period of rapid development, and its foundation is not stable. The photographic crystal industry, the photo printer industry and the record player to be launched in the future all need to invest a lot of human and material resources, so it is not suitable to continue to invest a lot of foreign investment.

Griffin stood up excitedly and made a deep bow to Harvey: "of course! Please say, and allow me to express my high respect and thanks to you. "

Harvey will need to record "Symphony of fate" and "Symphony No. 9". The right to use these two pieces is in Harvey's hands, which is not a requirement. Second, Harvey needs Griffin's Symphony Orchestra to practice many choruses and symphonies in "ice and snow" while practicing, "Ice and snow" is a cartoon, there is no strict requirement for the accuracy of performance, as long as it is played by a regular Symphony Orchestra, it can be qualified.

This is not a problem at all. Originally, Symphony Orchestra practice is not all about practicing a piece of music. The most important thing is to run in and cooperate with each other.

After reading the score of "ice and snow" given by Harvey, Griffin changed his decadent state and nodded in red.
