Chapter 14 Crazy Proposal (4K 2-in-1)(2/2)

."

Fan Ning looked as usual: "Rehearsal is to rehearse the musicians, and the conductor is also to conduct the musicians. The ability to select and employ people is a kind of commanding ability."

"...Since I agreed to the school, and my name has been permanently written on the record of the permanent conductor of the orchestra during this period, then there is only one goal: the performance results and the related ranking of the orchestra...I cannot guarantee that in the future, St. Leni

What is the ranking of the Asian Symphony Orchestra, but in the annual evaluation of the Imperial Culture and Media Committee in the year 913 of the New Calendar, it must get the first place among the student orchestras."

"..." The old professor was stunned by Fan Ning's words.

After a while, he murmured: "You are crazy. If you had looked at the rankings of the Santa Lenia Symphony Orchestra in the past ten years, you would not have set such an outrageous goal..."

The top three rankings of the Imperial Student Symphony Orchestra have been firmly occupied by the three imperial giants of the Imperial City: "Imperial Royal Conservatory of Music", "Tioline National Conservatory of Music", and "Santa Ramburg University" for many years, and the quantitative rating is still far away.

It was thrown far behind.

As for the University of San Legia? and the Eagles Conservatory of Music compete with each other for the fourth and fifth positions all year round... Of course, the top ten universities are all top-notch music majors.

"The Santa Lenia Symphony Orchestra should not have been of this level a long time ago." Fan Ning said calmly: "A hundred years ago, this was the place where Master Meyer and Master Tarakani premiered their graduation concerts.

Except for Master Gilres of the Kingdom of Holy Janus, the other two all came out of here... Why should it compete for the top spot in some student orchestra?"

"Although the nature of the student orchestra determines that the musicians who grow up will graduate quickly, it should at least occupy a place in the world's first-class professional symphony orchestras."

Professor Commons' eyes changed.

Although he still did not accept Fan Ning's ideas in the field of symphony, five generations of his family's musical family had all studied and taught at the University of San Lenia. Fan Ning's words gave him a similar sense of glory and excitement that had been dormant for many years.

Things like feelings are awakened.

After a brief period of excited reverie, he returned to calm reality: "If you really want to arrange Gilles' Third Symphony, then go ahead and arrange it. But don't take the ranking for granted, even if it takes just over a month for you to arrange it."

It can really make a leap in the performance level, but there are other repertoires... The response from the music industry and mainstream media will not favor us just because of an outstanding "Third Symphony"..."

Fan Ning said: "The repertoire will also be changed in the first half. My newly written violin concerto will be completed soon. By then, this concert will have the gimmick of a premiere..."

Professor Commons looked at Fan Ning with a critical eye behind his thick-soled glasses: "Another orchestral piece that's bigger than four pipes? You chose a two-pipe work for the second half, and you don't necessarily need a large group of people to finish it.

After your work, why don’t you leave midway?”

Fan Ning shook his head: "No, this will be a piece of pure romantic style, similar to my string quartet "Death and the Maiden". I guarantee that it will be favored by mainstream academic musicians. In terms of orchestration,

I will still maintain unity and let dual control do the job..."

"Pure romantic style? Guaranteed to be favored by the mainstream?..." The old professor's expression and behavior changed several times in succession. First, he clenched the pen tightly, his eyes brightened, and then hesitated and doubted.

He had listened to "Death and the Maiden", and he was obviously moved by the suggestion at this moment: "...If the orchestral works you write this time can really reach the level of chamber music before, instead of being like "Symphony No. 1 in D Major"

"It's such a mess. The premiere is indeed a bonus gimmick. If you want to try it, try it. At least this time, try to compete with the Eagles Music Academy..." But as he spoke, he sighed again, "But

Don’t even think about the top three. Even in terms of attendance and box office revenue, we can’t compete. Their popularity has been accumulated for a long time... These are all factors that affect the annual evaluation ranking.”

Attendance and box office revenue?…By the way, this is a commercial show, and the pricing plan is also an important part.

Fan Ning's heart moved and he continued to look at the handwriting behind the old professor.

"There are 2,760 seats in the performance venue. The regional price ranges are: 6 pounds (exclusive ticket), 4 pounds, 3 pounds, 2 pounds, 1 pound. The average price is 25 pounds. The total box office is 8,970 pounds?..."

So Fan Ning made a suggestion: "Change the price plan to 18, 12, 9, 6, and 3 pounds."

As soon as these words came out, Professor Commons' serious and old-fashioned face was completely unbearable.

"I always thought you were crazy, but now I realize you are indeed crazy!"
