Chapter 37 The Holy Lord has mercy on us! (4K 2-in-1)(1/2)
"Rumble, rumble——"
The sound of a heavy, stone-like giant moving was heard.
There are four secondary music seats on the side and rear of the sacramental altar on the field, which slowly separate from the main body and extend out.
Including the original main position and the original choir seats in the back, six areas were actually formed!
"What kind of establishment is this?"
Musicians in solemn formal attire holding instruments, and chorus members holding music books in their arms filed onto the stage from several directions, and the procession did not stop for a while.
The spectators could see that although there were many people, the orchestration was simple and not that of a symphony orchestra.
But does Kashunich’s Passion need such a battle?
Fan Ning looked up thoughtfully, then looked down at the contents of the letter.
"I came to San Porto and listened to the Baptismal Festival of the Holy Sun Church. Well, I mentally reviewed the methods you taught me to analyze medieval styles and polyphonic music to see if I could get some unusual feelings.
I find that I can't see through you more and more. You said you were promoted before, but I don't understand where you got the key and quota. Did you invent the key to the "Gate of Enlightenment" yourself? Otherwise, why did you
When you were still in school, were you planning to establish a league and a college?
Well, if someone told me that he had other ways to advance to become a Deeper, I would definitely think that he was a liar, but you, maybe you really do.
But I really didn’t plan to ask now, guess why?
Of course, it's because you not only become fast, but also very confident. I still have a long way to go before my inspiration reaches the limit of a high level, and now it's useless to make an appointment!
"
Fan Ning found this last sentence inexplicably funny.
He thought for a while, finished his reply, and then continued to look ahead intently.
Gradually, more than a hundred string musicians, six flutists, six double brass players, nine trumpeters, four harpsichords providing continuo and four harpsichords were gathered on the podium.
musicians, two timpanists, and more than 300 choir members!
Yes, there is more than one San Pelto Philharmonic Orchestra on stage.
Taking into account the unparalleled playing time and the divine atmosphere of this work, combined with the mysterious characteristics of the actual venue and altar, as well as the objective needs of a large range of believers to listen, Director Galinitz modified the parts to varying degrees.
doubled!
Janus has five of the top ten top orchestras in the world, and three of them are based in San Pelto. At this moment, all the musicians in their corresponding parts have been transferred over by the church!
These spectators still don't know about the change of repertoire. Naturally, they don't know why and are doubly surprised.
The scene was quiet and solemn, but actually my heart was turbulent.
More than four hundred and nearly five hundred people!
Last year's "Resurrection" premiere in the Northern Continent was recorded in history. There were only a little over 200 artists participating, right?
"The Holy Sun Church is good at enlightenment, and their advantages are very easy to take advantage of. Remember to take advantage of them more.
Or to put it more seriously, even people who do not believe in God can feel what the true piety and enthusiasm of human beings are, appreciate the beauty of harmony reflected in the movement of polyphonic voices with each other, and lament that human beings can actually rely on their own actions.
With its power, it builds the inner spiritual world as sublime as a pagoda.
High-level limit? It's very simple. You don't need to wait so long. The division method of levels one to nine is for mystical research, not for you to climb step by step.
Unless you haven’t learned the appreciation method I taught you.”
Luo Yin looked at Fan Ning's reply and blinked repeatedly to think.
It feels so confident, it feels so confident.
Suddenly the Pope’s voice echoed throughout the set and the entire Holy City:
"The repertoire of the baptismal ceremony has been changed. Antoine Lavoisier, premiere of "Mass in B minor."
"What?" The reminder card in Bishop Tucville's hand spun and fell to the bricks.
"Ah" Luo Yin raised his head when he heard this.
Many people in the seats straightened up instantly.
Those military representatives, royal dignitaries, and aristocratic nobles who had expressed "criticisms" did not speak out for a while, nor did they not speak out.
Everyone abided by the etiquette, there was no discussion, they just exchanged glances quickly.
In my heart, it was like a thunder exploded in the quiet night.
The speed was too fast, and the Pope did not provide any explanation, neither the identity nor the reasons, nor the process of how this decision was made.
Even the high-level bishops of these churches did not know this in advance.
The premiere of what work can replace the original Kashunich?
Is there any risk of blasphemy?
Was Lavoisier also a composer in the Middle Ages? Is the "Mass in B Minor" the latest lost work to be unearthed? Even among the spectators, or among the listeners on the street further away, there are still some people who have no idea that Lavoisier was a composer in the Middle Ages.
Candidates for the priesthood this time.
But after hearing this news, no one had time to fully digest it.
Because, the conductor Galinitz on the stage opened his arms directly, ready to clap, and fell heavily!——
"The Holy Lord has mercy on us!"
The five voices in the choir directly burst out with the strongest sound like the cry of the soul!
The introduction to the chorus in B minor, which has a tragic color, makes a metaphorical sadness instantly sweep over the audience.
The audience's whole body seemed to be filled with dark matter, but behind the misty tragedy, the soaring female voice and the melody of the violin were like the first holy fire lit in the dark abyss!
"Song of Mercy" is one of the oldest mass music. In the "Litany" of the early church in the third history, the clergy led the singing, and the believers responded, forming the original "round singing" vocal form. Later, it gradually changed from "Litany" to "Litany".
” to become independent.
In the doctrine of "Unfallen Fire", its prayer contains three paragraphs: "The Holy Lord has mercy on us", "The Holy Son has mercy on us", "The Holy Lord has mercy on us", each prayer is
The hymn is repeated three times, nine times in total, as a metaphor for the core secret of the "Trinity" in the church. Since one or three verses of the lyrics are the same, ancient musicians naturally composed the same melody, with changes and contrasts in the middle. This may be an ABA song.
The important religious origin of the style.
But in Bach's "Mercy" of "Mass in B minor", he creatively composed an independent part for each section. At this moment, it is the first part "Holy Lord Have Mercy on Us".
The introduction ignites spirituality with a fierce fire of grief, and then the atmosphere returns to darkness, and the first fugue is played by purely instrumental music.
The antecedent in the theme repeats the B sound in the shape of "chanting", and the two groups of wedge-shaped molds mean "praying". After a semitone descending "sigh" tone, the big jump type of six degrees upward metaphors the glory of the Lord. "Amazing".
The "glow wheel" standing in the sky washes away the brilliant halo, radiating the huge and pure power of form hidden in the "Compassion Sutra" to an area of more than five kilometers in radius.
The audience's hearts have begun to tremble.
As the first presentation of the theme ends, the second and third paragraphs of "chanting-praying-sighing-exclamation" imitative voices enter one after another, and transition from restrained instrumental music to sacred vocals, eventually forming a five-part song. A solemn fugue with an interlude.
"The Holy Son has mercy on us!"
In the second part, the music enters the slightly brighter key of D major.
With two violins playing in unison, two sopranos recited the middle prayer.
They either sing in parallel in three or six degrees, or imitate in four or five degrees. The fusion of double beats and triple beats, and the expressive use of appoggio, make this duet full of graceful and graceful natural melody.
"The Holy Lord has mercy on us!"
The four-part chorus begins again, with bass continuo, flute and double brass accompaniment in soft tones.
The third part is marked with the "Albreve" expression term unique to the early Baroque - the prototype of the 22 time signature (¢) - the music should be played twice as fast as the notation, giving the dull F sharp minor a few twists. Enthusiasm for solemn march.
"The legacy of the ancient monks is indeed the legacy of the ancient monks." Tukweil, who had come back to his senses, clenched his fists when he heard this. He also sighed with emotion, as well as the Inquisitor Melaltin and several others who were sitting in the church's senior seats. A bishop.
They are all people with a profound understanding of doctrine, and they can hear the "stileantico" (ancient style) that is everywhere in this third part. Father Lavoisier uses the almost strict rules of the third historical melody system to comprehensively The writing that controls each part of the fugue, from the theme characteristics, the entry method, the advancement technique, and even the careful preparation and resolution of the dissonances, does not follow the purest ancient formula.
It's like the sun and moon are changing and time is flowing backwards.
This romanticist may be a little "conservative" in his eyes, but he perfectly presents the pious mood of "asking the Lord to have mercy"!
A young prince who had expressed strong criticism after hearing about Lavoisier's "making a list" was now in a state of crying.
There was no other reason than that I had just tried to enter a dream through a music ritual, and then I discovered that after five years of practicing the dream control method, today I saw the light of migration and first recognition.
And this is only the first part of the "Compassion Sutra"!
"I opposed him, and then he promoted me!?"
As the young prince reflected on his regrets, the drumsticks fell, the trumpets sounded, and the strings played sonorous and powerful steps.
“Glory to the Lord!”
The mass ceremony entered the second stage of the "Gloria Sutra".
It was incorporated into the regular mass by the church later than the Sutra of Mercy, but it has a long history as well. The holy and joyful D major of the 4th part sweeps away the darkness and sadness of the previous B minor and F sharp minor.
At this moment, all the heavy clouds in the sky have dispersed, and the joyful glory spread across the Holy City under the blessing of the "Glow Wheel" altar.
Among the people standing on the streets, some were driven away by the warm air from the severe cold, some felt that their unbearable pain was relieved, and some people's groggy minds became clear!
They all bowed their heads in the direction of the field and murmured praises for the miracle!
