Vienna is the capital of Austria and the music capital of the world, and it was the center of the Austro-Hungarian Empire.

It was the heyday of Vienna, and during that half-century it became the center of Europe, giving it the character and size of the city, which it has maintained to this day. Until then, the history of Vienna can be ignored.

The tragic First World War destroyed the empire of 50 million people and completely destroyed the glorious Habsburgs, but after the war, Vienna remained Vienna for the rest of its life, and the music of Johann Strauss still played in the sky above the city.

Vienna is a symbol of Europe, because it does not belong to any people, to anyone, it belongs to a vanished era, a dream built by generations out of marble, sandstone, and, more fashionable, cement. In 1914, when the Austro-Hungarian Foreign Minister, Count Berchtold, was asked what nationality he was, he angrily replied: "I am from Vienna!" ”

Vienna's music also belongs to the whole world.

There are many, many New Year's concerts around the world every New Year's Eve period, but the most famous one can only be the Vienna New Year's Concert. Every New Year's festival is attended by many famous musicians who hold their own personal New Year's concerts in different concert halls, but no one has ever held a solo concert at the Musikverein in Vienna on New Year's Day.

Every year on New Year's Day at 6 p.m., the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra performs a magnificent movement in the Golden Concert Hall, with Johann Strauss as the timeless melody of the movement. For more than half a century, even the smoke of the Second World War has not interrupted its holding.

The New Year's concert in the Golden Hall introduces the New Year to the whole of Europe and the world, saying goodbye to the old and welcoming the new, just like the Spring Festival Gala in China.

Therefore, on New Year's Day, belonging to the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra, any individual or other orchestra can only perform in the back row, and it is not a question of how much money it costs.

To be able to have a performance on the evening of the last day of the year-end is already quite a high standard, because in principle, this time belongs to the time when the Philharmonic Orchestra will practice for the next day's New Year's concert. Helen's sister Hélène Grimaud was able to give a solo piano concert at this time, both because of her high reputation as a female pianist and because her concert in the name of Mozart was part of Austria's commemoration of the great musician.

This year is the 250th anniversary of Mozart's birth, FIFA has to rub the nobility of the sages, how can Austria, the motherland of Mozart, be indifferent, the entire commemoration will last for six months, across the year.

Zhuo Yang has been very interested in Mozart's music in recent years, and has done a lot of research, which is not common in the field of classical music.

Mozart's music is recognized worldwide as beautiful, pure and comforting, a bit like chicken soup for the soul. In the serious music industry, his music is not as profound as Beethoven, Haydn, Schubert and others. Mozart's music is full of comfort and straightforwardness, happiness is happiness, and sadness will accompany you to cry. Like a child, Mozart's music is sincere and clear.

The biggest names in the industry studied Mozart with great fanfare, afraid that his peers would laugh at him for being shallow, but Zhuo Yang was not afraid because he was young. People who are only 21 years old, I am not shallow, who is shallow? If I'm as deep as you old gangsters, I'm going to be in for hell.

When I first listen to Mozart's concerto, I am greeted by a strong warmth, the coloring of the music is bright and moist, and the drama required by the concerto relies on the calmness and chic of the development of the theme to appear, everything is so natural and casual, but it is simply fascinating.

Compared to Beethoven's ocean-like turbulence, Schumann's "pencil sketch-clear" touch keys, and Rubinstein's volcano-like performance, listening to Mozart, you need to taste the magical legato "like oil flowing".

In Zhuo Yang's view, Mozart's music, like Tang poetry, cannot be analyzed, and if it is analyzed thoroughly, the poetic taste will be lost. It is the affirmation and support of the emotional turmoil that is difficult to control, the rebirth of the whole body and the whole body, the movement of the ability to comfort and watch, the shortcut to the end of the mountain that changes its appearance, the joy of enjoying the taboos, and the brilliant mark of its individual life!

The pianist Horowitz once said in his later years: Mozart is my No. 1, this is the twilight of life to achieve the highest level of return. When Mahler was dying, the last word he spat out was "Mozart".

How beautiful it is to return to the road of childhood! Mozart perfectly illustrates what it means to get back to basics.

If Zhuo Yang is now alone in the Golden Hall, it will be a little difficult, there are not so many deep reserves, and he can't fool these golden ears who look like staves, but as a well-known young pianist to serve as an assistant guest, it is not a problem.

Zhuo Yang performed two pieces of Mozart only once, "Piano Concerto No. 23# - Adagio Adagio" and "Piano Sonata No. 11# in A major (KV.331) Third Movement", the third movement of KV 331 is the well-known "Turkish March".

At the end of the concert, 2007 was less than three hours away. The crowd in the Golden Hall gradually dispersed, and when it left, it was as quiet and orderly as it had come. There was a family of three in the crowd leaving, a middle-aged couple with their daughter, a beautiful girl like the rich fragrance of magnolia flowers in the moonlight, and her face won the love of God.

His father was a calm and handsome man, and the city was the glory of his ancestors and the last glory of their family. A hundred years after his family's demise, he now lives in the tiny country of Liechtenstein, where he is just an ordinary official obsessed with art and stamps. However, as long as he returns to Vienna, his old surname will still make everyone in the country look at him.

"That young Chinese man just now is amazing, I didn't expect him to play the piano so well. What do you think? CoCo。 The father asked his daughter.

CoCo walked between his father and mother, holding one arm affectionately. "Hmmm! He's better than he was at his first solo concert three years ago, when dad you should have gone to Hanover with me and my mother. ”

"This Zhuo Yang is very interesting, the last time I watched him play football, CoCo, you know that Dad doesn't watch football games very often, he is a layman." His father, Franz Joseph, said: "But even a layman like me could tell that he was playing very well. ”

"Hmm, Franz, why didn't I know you had ever watched Zhuo Yang play?" The mother asked curiously.

"Hey, didn't I go to Lisbon with CoCo last May, and I happened to meet His Royal Highness Prince Ergul, and His Royal Highness invited me to go with CoCo, and it was a League Cup final." Franz Joseph said: "Zhuo Yang's "Concerto No. 23#" is not the best I have ever heard, nor is it the most powerful rendering, but he is the purest "23# Concerto Adagio" I have ever heard. His playing is like a stream reflecting each other, like a spring flowing down a snow-capped mountain, although cold and biting, it is clear and pure. ”

"Only a person with a truly pure heart can play such pure music. Zhuo Yang, he's amazing. ”

"This young man from the East is very good, he saved Midel in Hanover that year, and Ophelia said that now the Swinburn family is very close to him." Mother Matilda Arabella said. Ophelia in her words is CoCo's aunt, the only sister of her husband Franz Joseph, and the mother of Midel Swinburne and Jefferin Swinburne.

"Yes, Mom. Midel loves him! "Under the neon lights of Vienna at night, CoCo's smile blooms like a flower. Hearing her father and mother praise Zhuo Yang, she had indescribable joy in her heart.

- Brother Zhuo Yang, do you know? I'm coming to your concert again.
