Every performing arts industry has its own temple, with the Berlin Philharmonic being a model for symphony audiences in Germany, the Teatro alla Scala in Milan as the supreme throne for opera fans, the Vienna State Opera and the ******** as the music capital of Vienna, the Mariinsky Theater dominating Russia, and the Carnegie Hall dominating across the ocean.

But when it comes to Asia, Suntory Hall, located in Roppongi-1-chome, Neon Tokyo, is a regional leader in terms of seniority and status.

It is a concert hall that Karajan calls a "treasure chest of sounds" and is a well-deserved temple of Asian classical music.........

Cheng Xiaoyu has admired Suntory Concert Hall for a long time, and this time it can be regarded as a wish.

After parking the car, Ijiin Jingmei led Cheng Xiaoyu to the concert hall where tickets were sold, and unlike what he expected, the lobby of the Suntory Concert Hall was overcrowded, and it could be seen that most of them came to buy tickets for the "Berlin Philharmonic" performance in the evening, and most of them were obviously disappointed. There are also many people holding signs and trying to wait for a refund, but it seems that there is little hope. Cheng Xiaoyu was surprised by the warm classical music atmosphere of Neon, and when you think about Neon being the country with the best and most comprehensive music development in Asia, you can understand why.

Standing in the lobby through the glass, you can see a huge TV screen on the left side of the ticket office, showing the inside of the concert hall, where a free organ performance is being performed.

The temperature in Tokyo plummets in December, but the concert hall is warm as spring, and those without tickets are waiting to see if there is a miracle, a few students in school uniforms are chatting, and some foreigners are pacing around in distractions. They didn't have to worry about tickets, so Ijiin Shizumi took Cheng Xiaoyu towards the concert hall, in fact, Cheng Xiaoyu never thought that Ijiin Shizumi was still a classical music lover.

While walking, Jingmei also whispered to Cheng Xiaoyu: "Suntory Concert Hall is the most famous concert hall in Asia with a vineyard layout, and it is the first concert hall designed by Mr. Yasuhisa Toyoda after joining Nagata Sound Design Bureau. It can be said that the building in front of you is not only the groundbreaking work of Toyota Yasuhisa, but also the pinnacle of creation. ”

Cheng Xiaoyu was a little surprised that Jingmei of Yijiyuan knew so much about this building, and said: "Sister Jingmei seems to know a lot about architecture........

Shizumi Ijiin smiled and explained, "I studied architecture in college, and my main focus was on the design of concert halls and theaters.........

Cheng Xiaoyu walked through the long corridor, flanked by photographs of the famous symphony orchestra performing, he stopped, and said in the golden corridor: "Music and architecture are inseparable topics, floating clouds are reflected on the clusters of buildings all the time, the wind whistles blowing, the lights flickering in the night view of the city, the sound of whistles, and the sound of bells in the auditorium and the tower are the punctuation of architecture and music...... Consider Demi Urges, who was an undying admirer of the muse, and Greek mythology was the first to talk about the relationship between architecture and music, and it is recorded that when the muse played the harp, he could make the stone form a wall on its own. ”

Cheng Xiaoyu's ethereal and poetic sentences caused many people to stop and listen, but just such an empty thing without content is not much commendable, and then Cheng Xiaoyu changed his words and said: "The classical art classification classifies architecture as space art, and music as time art. You may object to this distinction, after all, the appreciation of architecture is also in time, and music is even more unlikely to exist without space, and of course this is not only about the acoustics of a concert hall.

It is important to know that classical art is divided into representational art and non-representational art, and music and architecture are both non-representational arts. Music is not like literature, which can concretely describe something, and architecture, which is not like sculpture, which can concretely reproduce something. In other words, architecture and music are both abstract, so where can abstract them overlap?

One can appreciate architecture by moving freely at one's own pace and gaze, but not by listening to a tune. Moreover, time in music is irreversible, but time in architecture is reversible. But does that mean that architecture has nothing to do with music in time?'

Cheng Xiaoyu asked a question, of course, not expecting an answer, and immediately he said: "Obviously not, controlling the pace of people's appreciation of architecture, can we also say that we have made the building have the same irreversibility of time as music? We can study the medieval churches in Europe and give an example, the most representative type of architecture in Europe: the Christian church, enter the church from the main entrance of the building, and then go to the depths of the church, because this is the route for people to get close to God." So, from the entrance of the church to the altar forms an axis, and visually there is also a main axis. The column then divides the rhythm, like the drum beat in a pop song, where stained glass and other details are the melody that changes in the rhythm. Some people may think that the time to appreciate architecture is free, and the time of music is rigid, but I think this is misled by modern music. Music back then wasn't like music now, where the same song was performed to the second. In early European music, there was only a beat, and the speed of the beat was mastered by the performer himself. So, in fact, under the condition of a limited route, the time that people experience in the building is very similar to the time they experience when listening to music. ”

Standing in the corridor of the Suntory Concert Hall, he was not at all like the calm and wise appearance of his age, but more like a professor standing on the podium, a camera with a camera, still filming, and many people watching.

Then Cheng Xiaoyu talked about the relationship between Gothic churches and music, and the relationship between "When the Roses Will Bloom" and the Cathedral of Florence........ These arguments are at the forefront of research even in the era of memory, and only a few people have been exposed to the views, after all, there are too few people who are familiar with the two arts of music and architecture, but Cheng Xiaoyu happened to have listened to the lectures of Igarashi in this area, so he could just take it out and pretend to be b, but this b is too high-level, and ordinary people can't understand it at all, if Su Yuxi is here, he will definitely be able to extend and discuss this topic with him, because there are too many things worth studying.

After Cheng Xiaoyu finished his tirade, there was applause around him.

As a lover of classical music, she naturally understands that the connection between architecture and music is mathematics that exists in the dimensions of space and time, returning to the one-sentence principle that Pythagoras said that "everything is a number". And Cheng Xiaoyu's words hid this subtle feeling, and the taste hit her heart from time to time.

This made Shizumi stand in front of the huge and brilliant wooden door of the concert hall and said with emotion: "People, I still have a desire to understand the rules of the world, however, aren't these theories that people create by themselves first, and then play with themselves?" Cheng Xiaoyu's talent amazed her, and she was even disappointed that she couldn't catch up.

didn't wait for Cheng Xiaoyu to react, after speaking, Yijiyuan Jingmei pushed open the door, the door gradually opened, and a huge pipe organ made by Austria's top pipe organ manufacturing bureau Riegerelbau, composed of 74 stops and 5898 pipes, was also slowly presented in front of Cheng Xiaoyu's eyes.

The sound in my ears is "Saint-Saëns' Symphony No. 3 - Organ" (Saint-Saëns' music is highly recommended, I personally think it is a must-listen for symphony beginners), and the same huge orchestra and organ compete to roar, magnificent, this moment to Cheng Xiaoyu's shock is incomparable.

This magnificent symphony is as straight as heaven, and Cheng Xiaoyu struggles to distinguish and decompose every note in it, so that beauty and truth disappear.

Watching a top symphony orchestra perform, not only does the music perform at a very high level, but the movements of the conductor and musicians also rise and fall gracefully with the rhythm of the music, and they themselves constitute the beating notes, as well as the brilliant and colorful instruments.

The whole scene also shows a strong sense of beauty, and the whole scene itself has become a flowing painting.

Before the main dish of the "Berlin Philharmonic" was served, Cheng Xiaoyu enjoyed such elegant and brilliant music, which really surprised Cheng Xiaoyu, he didn't expect that even the music he enjoyed for free could move his heart so much.

This reminded him of a sentence, if you really care about the sound quality, throw away the CD and headphones in your hand and go to the concert hall!

After losing their minds, the two of them found a place to sit down at random, waiting for the arrival of the next wealthy feast in a gluttonous feast.

The videographer holding the camera was stopped outside by the staff of the concert hall, even if he showed his NHK work card, it didn't help, until Ijiin made a phone call, and the matter was quickly resolved, if Cheng Xiaoyu knew that Ijiin Shizumi graduated from the "Sacred Heart Women's University" and noticed these details, he might know something about Ijiin Shizumi's identity, but he is not omniscient, let alone prophetic, so the story is still moving towards the future on a predetermined track.

After the organ performance, there is still an hour and a half before the "Berlin Philharmonic" debuts, and Shizumi Ijiin plans to take Cheng Xiaoyu to have a casual meal, and then come back to enjoy the performance of today's highlight, the "Berlin Philharmonic".

Unexpectedly, when I returned to the concert hall, there was a little accident.

(Has anyone guessed the identity of Miss Ijiin - why spend so much ink writing about a person who doesn't appear in the profile!) (To be continued.) )
