The lively and spacious Isaac Stern Auditorium was Carnegie Hall\u2019s main concert hall, bearing a background of warm beige and red. The building\u2019s milky white marble structure and special sound equipment made concerts here a first class music experience. As soon as they entered, everyone felt its warmth and romance.\u00a0<\/p>

At that moment, the auditorium\u2019s more than 2,800 seats had been filled with people one after another. Onstage, there were twice the number of chairs as before! Obviously, Wei Ai and New Ai intended to integrate the members of their two orchestras.\u00a0<\/p>

After the audience entered the venue and the warning tone sounded, the auditorium gradually fell silent. The first musician appeared on one side of the stage. Applause broke out immediately. The audience warmly welcomed the outstanding musicians.\u00a0<\/p>

A total of 70% of members from each orchestra had been selected for this performance. The two parties entered and sat in staggered order, creating a veritable ensemble.\u00a0<\/p>

Once the two deputy concertmasters entered the stage, it was the concertmasters\u2019 turn.<\/p>

Qi Mu took a deep breath as he prepared to step out from beyond the curtain, but someone grabbed him. He turned his head in surprise and saw the bearded concertmaster. With a smile, he said, \u201cThis is our home court, of course we have to go first. Little Seven, please don\u2019t make me embarrassed.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>

Qi Mu was stunned, then smiled and nodded. He watched Hooke\u2019s disappearing figure but was moved in his heart: he said it was to keep from embarrassing him, but in fact\u2026 Hooke was taking care of him. As he understood, the more important person appeared last. Hooke was encouraging and supporting him.<\/p>

But for the moment, Qi Mu lifted his head confidently and walked onto the stage.\u00a0<\/p>

Overwhelming applause filled the concert hall as if to welcome this top orchestra from afar with its greatest strength, but also to welcome the outstanding, young violinist of Wei Ai.\u00a0<\/p>

After Mr. Boswell took the stage, the famous conductor led the orchestra to bow to the audience. He didn\u2019t explain why there were two concertmasters onstage, so he stood as his own conductor. He stood, raised the baton, and created sound!<\/p>

There could be two lead violinists onstage, but there could never be two conductors onstage. For tonight\u2019s concert, Mr. Boswell would serve as conductor for the first half, and Mr. Dorenza the second.\u00a0<\/p>

The violin played cheerfully and easily, and the familiar music made the audience smile.\u00a0<\/p>

This piece was the \u300aSpring\u300bmovement of Vivaldi\u2019s \u300aFour Seasons\u300b, also known as \u300aViolin Concerto in E Major<\/a>\u300b.<\/p>

The world-renowned Italian composer was born into a fine musical family. His smooth and happy life was accompanied by notes that always jumped easily. As a representative of the Baroque style, Vivaldi\u2019s music had a strong classical color. It was orthodox and dignified, but also lively and light.\u00a0<\/p>

\u300aFour Seasons\u300bwas Vivaldi\u2019s most famous masterpiece.\u00a0<\/p>

Onstage, the stringed instruments played attentively and conscientiously. Their bows pulled up and down with great rhythm and the wonderful sounds of the instruments poured out, flowing from its holes and bringing beauty and fragrance to the audience.\u00a0<\/p>

Vivaldi was the first musician to use music to describe the four seasons. In his music, the liveliness of the violin was like a bird singing for the spring breeze, while the naughty onomatopoeia of the viola seemed to be a loyal puppy barking along.\u00a0<\/p>

The first movement of \u300aSpring\u300bwas a happy, beautiful allegro, which had the moving alias, \u201cThe Song of the Birds\u201d. In the concert hall, the euphemistic stringed instruments played leisurely. The musicians skillfully danced their bows to create each staccato.\u00a0<\/p>

The cello hummed slightly, like a rainstorm about to hit. The wind instruments rumbled like the spring rain under the thunder and lightning. It was the joy of the stringed instruments that caused the dark clouds to dissipate, their music floating back up again.\u00a0<\/p>

The beating notes flowed throughout the concert hall. They happily danced hand in hand, sharing the joy of spring with everyone in the audience.\u00a0<\/p>

Mr. Boswell raised the baton, and the two excellent concertmasters led the first violin group to make the music rise sharply. Mr. Boswell hurriedly held down the baton, and the suddenly lighthearted sound seemed to brew.\u00a0<\/p>

Finally!<\/p>

All the instruments played in unison, and all the instruments came together to form a joyful ocean of music!<\/p>

In the early hours of the morning in Berlin, a handsome and indifferent man sat on the sofa, watching the concert live on TV. The deep, dark night outside created a quiet atmosphere, and the music flowing from the stereo made the exciting melody echo throughout the room.\u00a0<\/p>

When all the melodies came together to form a grand, lively climax, even Min Chen couldn\u2019t help the upward tilt at the corners of his lips. \u201cHis grasp of the point, ah\u2026 Mr. Boswell is really good at this warm melody.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>

His voice fell and he didn\u2019t speak again. He continued to listen carefully to the sound from the speakers, as if he wanted to pinpoint the unique, beautiful violin of the young man onstage. But, after listening carefully for a long time, his face grew darker and darker. At the end of the piece, Min Chen couldn\u2019t bear it. He made a phone call and said, \u201cDaniel, I need you to change the speaker tomorrow.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>

\u201c…You dare to call me at one o\u2019clock in the morning for this kind of thing?!!!\u201d<\/p>

\u201cI\u2019ll keep listening to the music. Please handle this tomorrow.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>

\u201cBelieve it or not, I\u2019ll kill you tomorrow\u2026\u201d\u00a0<\/p>

Hanging up the phone decisively, Min Chen raised his head again, watching the concert.\u00a0<\/p>

Although\u2026 he couldn\u2019t tell his young man from such mixed elements, at least he could see his face, right?<\/p>

Well, the live director of the concert was very good, and he gave a lot of shots to his family.\u00a0<\/p>

\u2026<\/p>

Qi Mu, far away in New York, naturally didn\u2019t know that the man on the opposite end of a television was secretly preparing to replace the speaker. After\u300aSpring\u300b, he played Rossini’s \u300aSix String Sonata<\/a>\u300b, Debussy\u2019s \u300aAfternoon of the Faun<\/a>\u300b…<\/p>

At this point, the first half of the concert ended, and Dorenza took over the baton and started on the passionate second half.\u00a0<\/p>

Brahms\u2019 \u300aHungarian Dance No. 6<\/a>\u300bwas used in the opening, with Mendelssohn’s \u300aA Midsummer Night\u2019s Dream<\/a>\u300bused as a link. After the two pieces ended, amidst the audience\u2019s thunderous applause, Dorenza smiled and bowed. Finally, he looked at the two concertmasters sitting beside him.\u00a0<\/p>

Onstage, Qi Mu and Hooke looked at each other, then stood together.\u00a0<\/p>

An uproar overtook the auditorium. Everyone watched in astonishment as the two concertmasters rose.\u00a0<\/p>

The all knew New Ai\u2019s lead violinist Hooke, and beside him was obviously Wei Ai\u2019s new lead violinist Qi Mu. The young, handsome violinist was known for his outstanding violin technique, with music full of emotion and dynamism.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>

It was nice that they were both concertmasters\u2026 but, why did they both stand up?!<\/p>

Even if they wanted to make a festive piece with the violin as the main body, it still wouldn\u2019t make both of them stand, would it?<\/p>

No, no, what splendor was this? Wasn\u2019t the next piece \u300aFrom the New World<\/a>\u300b by Dvorak? Where did they get the colorful violin theme?!<\/p>

Rustling came from under the stage as many audience members flipped through the repertoire they received when they entered the auditorium. They carefully read the delicate, handwritten letters, confirmed the last piece was \u300aFrom the New World\u300b, and became even more confused.\u00a0<\/p>

They may not be familiar with other symphonies, but when it came to \u300aFrom the New World\u300b… how could anyone not have heard it before?<\/p>

Since \u300aFrom the New World\u300bwas going to be played, why did the lead violinist need to rise?<\/p>

No one answered the audience\u2019s questions. After shaking hands with Dorenza, Qi Mu and Mr. Hooke were ready to take their rightful places. Dorenza lifted the baton from the podium as Qi Mu and Mr. Hooke stood together at his left, placing their bows lightly on the strings.\u00a0<\/p>

Under the bright, dazzling lights, a tall, handsome young man stood upright, waiting for the music to begin. In contrast to the bearded concertmaster, the young man was so beautiful that the audience couldn\u2019t take their eyes off him.\u00a0<\/p>

With his fingers on the strings, he held the little princess tenderly in his arms.\u00a0<\/p>

He saw Dorenza lift the baton, and in the next second, the enthusiastic voice of his violin rang out!<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
