Chapter 57: The Piano
"Your Excellency Albert, you have the ability to keep such a beautiful woman at home. www.biquge.info"Master Claude, the value of a man can be seen from the women around him, guarding an old woman all his life, wouldn't that life be too boring..." Albert smiled and took Illya's white and tender little hand and touched it gently.
"Haha, Lord Albert, you have a point. Meng Fan laughed unconsciously, and a touch of shyness appeared on Illya's pretty face on the side.
When Albert led his mistress Elijah away, many nobles and celebrities from Coldwater City came over to greet the lord.
"Lord Claude, I'm Coldwater City..." A male guest was standing in front of Meng Fan to introduce himself, and suddenly, Meng Fan heard a familiar voice.
Turning his head, Meng Fan looked at a corner of the banquet hall, the voice came from that side, Meng Fan walked towards the corner of the banquet hall, the guest who had not yet finished introducing himself to the lord stood stupidly in place at a loss.
Meng Fan walked quickly to the corner of the hall, where a young musician was sitting next to a large black instrument, the musician's hands were beating quickly on the black instrument, and the melodious music came out of the black instrument.
Staring at the black instrument in front of him, Meng Fan's eyes showed a look of surprise, the black instrument placed in the corner of the banquet hall was a piano.
On Earth, Meng Fan is a student who has just graduated from the Conservatory of Music, and in the Conservatory of Music, Meng Fan's musical instrument major is piano, and Meng Fan felt extremely excited to see the musical instrument he learned on the Qinglan Continent.
"Lord Claude. Tiberius walked up to Meng Fan's side, "Tiberius, there is a piano here." Meng Fan turned his head in surprise and said.
"Piano?" Tiberius had a strange look in his eyes, "Lord Claude, are you talking about this instrument?" Tiberius pointed to the black instrument being played by the musician.
"That's right. Meng Fan nodded, "Lord Claude, this piano is called Flosa, it was created by Master Flosa, the greatest inventor in the Qinglan Continent, and it was also named after Master Flosa. Tiberius's words made Meng Fan stunned.
What was in front of him was a black piano, how did it become a Flosa, but soon Meng Fan reacted, he was no longer on the earth, and it was understandable that the names of some things on the Qinglan continent were different from those on the earth.
Meng Fan stared at the black piano in front of him, "Lord Claude, the Flossa Qin is the most difficult instrument to master on the Qinglan Continent, the Flossa Piano has a very wide vocal range, and this instrument can basically play all the tones..." Tiberius introduced on the side.
Of course, Meng Fan is aware of the characteristics of the piano, on the earth, the piano is known as the "king of musical instruments" and enjoys the most honorable status among all musical instruments.
"Flosa?" Meng Fan interrupted Tiberius, the name Flosa Meng Fan had heard of, many things on the Qinglan Continent were invented by this person who lived five hundred years ago.
For example, the magic lamp that relies on the Philosopher's Stone, the Wind Mill, and various clocks including the silver pocket watch that Meng Fan carried, Flosa is known as the greatest inventor on the Qinglan Continent, and during Flosa's lifetime, he invented dozens of items that changed the lifestyle of the people in the Qinglan Continent.
"Tiberius, is there a violin on the Qinglan Continent?" Meng Fan looked at the brown-haired man in front of him, "Violin?" Tiberius had a confused look on his face.
"It's the kind of instrument that is pulled with a bow on your shoulder..." Meng Fan gestured with his hand, "No, Lord Claude, there is only a harp on the Qinglan Continent, and there is no violin like you said. Tiberius shook his head.
There is no violin, but there is a piano, which is not the same as the history of musical instruments on earth, and the violin should be invented before the piano.
On the earth, the piano, known as the "king of musical instruments", only appeared around the 18th century, and many musical instruments on the Qinglan continent are still in ancient times, which does not meet the conditions for the appearance of pianos at all.
"Master Claude, I have been given a biography of the Master Flosa, a very difficult instrument to play with both hands, which was the last work of the Master Flosa, who was going to name it the piano, but later generations named it the Flossa in honor of the great inventor. Tiberius stared at Meng Fan and said slowly.
"So, Lord Claude, I was surprised that you handed over the name of the piano as soon as you opened your mouth just now, but I didn't expect that Lord Claude and I also knew something about the life of Master Flosa..." Tiberius looked at Meng Fan.
"Haha, I also saw it in Master Flosa's biography..." Meng Fan touched his head a little embarrassed.
At this moment, there is an idea in Meng Fan's heart that has been verified, five hundred years ago, the master named Flosa who appeared on the Qinglan Continent crossed over from the earth like himself, and Meng Fan was not the first earthling to cross over to the Qinglan Continent.
Soon, as the last note fell, the musician sitting at the piano breathed a long sigh of relief and looked up, and the young musician found that the lord was standing behind him.
"Master Claude. The young musician stood up and saluted in a panic, "What's your name?" Meng Fan looked at the musician in front of him and asked.
"Schubert. The musician replied in a whisper, "Schubert, you play the piano very well." Meng Fan walked over to the black piano and gently swiped his fingers over the keys, "What's the name of the piece you played just now?" Meng Fan asked as he looked down at the black and white keys.
"Back to my lord, that song is ** heaven. The young musician Schubert spoke, "Spring?" Meng Fan had never heard this piece before, "Tiberius, did this Flossa master compose a piece after he invented the piano?" Meng Fan turned his head to look at Tiberius behind him.
"No, Master Claude, Maestro Flosa, who died shortly after the invention of the piano, is a very expensive instrument that takes a long time to master and which can be played by very few musicians in the Kingdom of Gilgias. Tiberius said, glancing at the young musician.
"Yes. Meng Fan raised his head, "Schubert, will you play the song Moonlight?" Meng Fan looked at the young musician and asked, "Moonlight?" Schubert's face showed a confused look, it seems that this musician doesn't know the Moonlight Song, the history of music development on the Qinglan Continent is different from that on Earth.
