musicians of old

Chapter 473
In the distant front streets and back alleys, some unexpected situations appeared, and on the sacristy stage, with the gesture of the master conductor, the position of the choir changed rapidly.

The left side and the left rear are combined into one, the right side and the right rear are combined into one, and the choir seats at the original rear and the separated choir members are also combined again.

Superficially, the number of zones has been reduced from six to three, but in reality a more subtle subdivision occurs within, with each zone being a full four-part choir.

"Hosanna! Hosanna!"

"The sound of cheers resounds through the sky!"

The twelve-part chorus composed of three choruses of four parts alternately presents and imitates the cheering tone of the 23rd part!
Bach wrote 4 sub-pieces for the "Holy Scripture", namely "Holy One", "Hosanna I", "Blessed Sutra", and "Hosanna II".In the teachings, "Hosanna" means the cheers of the people when the "unfallen fire" rises again. At first it meant "ask for help" and "ask for salvation", and later it was extended to the meaning of praise and exclamation.

It is the same as the previous song "Holy", it is also based on the 3/8 beat of D major similar to Paspier's dance, and even the composition of the melody motive is quite similar, making the previous "heaven and earth full of glory" The jubilant mood rose to a higher level again.

"Blessed is he who comes in his name."

In the 24th score "Blessings of Blessing", the tenor sang an idyllic aria, and the flute and violin provided melodious accompaniment. Some kind of simple and soft rationality, wandering quietly in the idyllic atmosphere of grain plants and flower beds middle.

This is an interlude sandwiched between "Hosanna" before and after, with a mysterious temperament of narcissism, and soon the cheers of the 25th part arrive, forming a radiant and exquisite ABA arch reproduction structure.

"Hosanna! Hosanna!"

"The sound of cheers resounds through the sky!"

Those high-level church leaders who are always paying attention to "whether they use allusions", "whether they are elegant", "whether the style is pure" and "whether they are full of theological metaphors" find that every note from the "Creed" to the "Sacred Scripture" is Still perfectly in line with the teachings.

In such a complex nested structure, all ideas and inspirations are presented very clearly.

"This is definitely a masterpiece that can only be composed under the personal teaching of "Unfalling Fire"!"

Sitting on the left of Roy, the presiding judge, Meraltine, a thin figure with a stern face and a flaming cross on his white robe, is a three-fold powerhouse of understanding, but at this moment he feels his knees are a little weak
Not only because of the music on stage.

He already felt that a dozen people had been promoted in this square.

Yes, among the more than [-] people, there are already more than a dozen newly promoted sages!
Theoretically speaking, people who can enter the square, especially those in the front area, have a higher proportion of people with prominent backgrounds or talents, and the enlightenment effect they can get is better, but there are greater enlightenment effects farther away from the square. The base number, I am afraid that the same number will be quite a lot after the statistics are counted!

Melaltine's gaze under two thick eyebrows flickered in thought: "Lavoisier has naturally become the top candidate for the priest this time. There is only one position reserved for him, and no one else occupies his position. I don't know. How far this person is from the limit of the high rank, judging from the 'Lebic Rescue Operation' reflected that night, it will not be too far."

"What's more important is that there is no difficulty for him to be evaluated as a 'Forged Lion', and the Special Patrol Office can't express any objection, which means that there will be no hindrance for him to use the key of my church'Light Shadow Gate' in the future."

It is almost doomed for Lavoisier to become a master of understanding. Thinking of this, it seems easy to explain the reasons behind the repercussions and criticisms that Lavoisier caused when he first arrived.

Melaltine, who can be the presiding judge, is definitely not a soft-hearted stubble.

First of all, it is a highly vigilant security. Secondly, if such a genius is really killed by the Special Inspection Office, he will at least assassinate three or five lower-level so-called geniuses in the Special Inspection Office, and give equal revenge!

This latter gesture of determination must be made.

In fact, the pope who is standing on the stage now has similar ideas with him.

"Even, even, with Lavoisier's perception, is there a possibility of self-created key climbing? It is said that such a person needs to complete the discussion on the structure of the Hui Tower when he passes through the door for the first time. Thousands of years There are only a handful of them, but my church is not without precedent, the ancient Saint Sebastian who bathed in light."

If you can really create your own key and have terrifying strength and potential far beyond the same realm, then the revival era of the Church of the Holy Sun
The jubilant and enthusiastic chorus subsided slightly, and the alternating preludes of the first and second violins brought the music into a broad, long and meditative state.

The mass ceremony has finally entered the last link, which is also the most peaceful and joyful link, the "Lamb Sutra".

At first, its prayer consisted of three identical petitions, and the content of the call to the Lamb of God was "Have mercy on us", but later the words and sentences of the third prayer were slightly changed, "Have mercy on us" was changed to "Give me mercy." Peace", forming the AAB three-segment lyrics that are still in use today.

In fact, Bach made a more dramatic treatment when composing the music.

He divided the "Lamb Sutra" into two sub-songs "Lamb of God" and "Give Peace". In order to highlight the hard-won prayer for peace at the end, the material in the first section was greatly elongated, using close connection and response techniques "Calling and requesting" again and again——

"Lamb of the Lord who takes away the sin of the world, have mercy on us."

"Lamb of the Lord who takes away the sin of the world, have mercy on us."

In the balanced continuo, this contralto aria of 26 parts sings the only G minor with a flat in the mass.

This may also be a hint of "coming back to normal" depiction, making the audience eagerly look forward to the arrival of the following "peace" prayer.

Until the finale of the 27th double fugue comes as promised.

"Lamb of the Lord, who takes away the sin of the world, give peace"

It lasted nearly three hours, from the "Mercy Sutra", "Glory Sutra" to "Creed", "Sacred Sutra" and then to "Lamb Sutra", this large-scale and magnificent religious masterpiece finally came to an end. The ceremonial links such as reading oaths and the Eucharist also came to an end smoothly.

All the orchestrations returned to the big band in a silent manner, and the voices of the four chants of the three choirs came from all directions like a warm tide, like the pure, peaceful and boundless source of the "Great Wheel of Light" in mid-air .

What surprised and moved the listeners was that the finale had exactly the same melody and harmony material as the sixth part, which embodies "praise, praise, adoration, and exaltation".

Just because of the lyrics, some half notes are changed to whole notes, or quarter notes are changed to half notes.

Even later, they found that even the number of bars was 46 bars.

"The sixth part, that is the emotional center of the "Glory Book". He wants us to hear 'Glory be to the Most High' again at the end of this mass." tears flashing,

"This Lavoisier, he is not asking the Lord to give him peace, but to thank the Lord for giving peace to all those who really trust him. It is an empty mass music, a pious work filled with divine brilliance, flesh and blood, and humanistic care."

"On the surface, it looks like the five-stage shelf of a regular mass, but in fact it includes all the special situations defined in the scriptures. This is the crystallization of my Janus's inheritance for thousands of years, and it is an insurmountable peak in the history of religious art!"

The Pope was filled with emotion. He looked at Lavoisier, who was listening with his eyes closed all the time, with a calm face under his seat, and then at Galinitz on the stage.

The conductor also closed his eyes and smiled, holding the baton lightly, letting the last chant sound slowly dissipate in a peaceful and quiet environment.

The sky is cloudless and clear, and the sun is shining in winter, and the wind is blowing.

There was the rustling of clothes.

First came the presiding judge, Melaltine, and then dozens of high-ranking church officials.

From the front row of seats to the entire square, from the main street to the end of the street, the crowd stood up and stood in silence.
