‘After all, it is the Berlin Philharmonic..’
When the second chorus of the year-end concert was over, people stood up and cheered without regard for who went first..
To the Berlin Philharmonic, which allowed me to spend the end of the year richly with family, lovers, and friends..
I applauded generously..
Beethoven's String Quartet No. 14, expressed in Furtwängler's deep contemplation, and the Berlin Philharmonic's main repertoire, Beethoven's Symphony No. 9, seemed to prove why they are called the best in the world..
However, what is disappointing is that nothing has changed since before Bae Do-bin returned..
This means that Bae Do-bin has successfully integrated into the Berlin Philharmonic, but there were also quite a few people who wanted to hear his devil-like voice..
As they were about to leave their disappointment, Furtwängler, who had left, came back on stage..
People were puzzled, but sat back down in anticipation of an encore..
just as expected.
After taking a seat with some of the musicians, Furtwängler once again greeted the audience..
The audience who shared their gaze with the people who were present were very happy..
Because Dobin Bae was standing next to Furtwängler among the violinists..
They could hear Bae Do-bin's performance, which was the only disappointment of today's concert, so they politely waited for their performance..
Antonio Vivaldi's Violin Concerto No. 4 in D minor.
The famous song now known as ‘Winter’ is starting to create anxiety..
1Movement not too fast (Allegro n on molto).
The string players along with Bae Do-bin moved their bows briefly, foreshadowing the impending passion..
Bae Do-bin concentrated on playing the violin, moving his left hand as if flicking it..
As the number of instruments played increases, the volume and weight increase..
In an instant, all instruments stopped playing..
Dobin Bae's short solo performance.
Canon began to sing Bae Dobin's message out loud more effectively than any other instrument..
Are you ahead or behind?.
People gradually became excited by Bae Do-bin's violin, which showed off his skills by making small variations..
And before long.
passionate ensemble.
Even when played at tremendous speed, Dobin Bae's violin perfectly expressed the clarity and depth of the sound..
That persistence.
It seemed as if the cold wind of midwinter had passed by..
Everyone in the audience who received the unexpected gift stood up and applauded..
An article was posted about the Berlin Philharmonic's concert at the end of the year..
This happens every year, but this time too, the rich musical world of Wilhelm Furtwängler and the Berlin Philharmonic continued to receive favorable reviews..

【4Details of the 2021 Berlin Philharmonic year-end concert, which had its first encore in 2021]
As these articles come up.
People's reactions were slightly different..
Bae Do-bin, Berlin Philharmonic's 'Winter' on the encore stage’.
10It took less than a minute, but people in the field began to mention Bae Do-bin's winter through their social media..
The powerful performance was captivating and talked about, and one person discovered that Bae Do-bin's violin was the 'canon' used by old concertmaster Nia Balgray..
The media reacted explosively..
ㄴ Bae Do-bin was truly amazing at the year-end concert. He completely melted into the Berlin Philharmonic and shone brighter than anyone else during the encore stage..
I heard that the violin Bae Do-bin played is a canon.?
ㄴ I don't have the eyes to recognize musical instruments, but if that's true, I think the Berlin Philharmonic actually recognized Bae Dobin as Wilhelm Furtwängler's successor..
ㄴ It’s speculation..
Did Nia Balgray give it to Bae Dobin as a gift??
ㄴ I also think the same way. Nia Balgrey's Canon is not just a luxury item. It was a treasure of the Berlin Philharmonic and its gal Nia Balgrei was the heir to its tradition. I think it probably means a generational change..
I didn't even know it was at the Berlin Philharmonic.
ㄴ I also think the same way. Canon cannot be compared in value with other violins. The Canon is probably the only instrument that receives state-level security whenever it moves..
Why did Nia Balgrey have such an important item??
ㄴ It was donated to Kara Jan and the Berlin Philharmonic from Genoa before and after World War II..
ㄴ There are many people who don't know that Nia Balgrei has been with the Berlin Philharmonic for 20 years, but before she joined, she was called the second coming of Jascha Heifetz. His hometown was Genoa, and he was also a great musician. He was perhaps the man most worthy of Paganini's canon..
ㄴ The Canon sounds so good that it seems like a waste to have in an orchestra, and it stands out. I don't think he would have been able to control it if he hadn't been a player as good as Nia Balgray..
ㄴ In the end, the story goes that Bae Do-bin inherited the treasure of the Berlin Philharmonic..
ㄴ Although the Berlin Philharmonic, Furtwängler, and Bae Dobin are also reticent, it seems safe to say that this is in fact a process of succession to the throne..
Fans of the Berlin Philharmonic have accepted this fact..
Those who visited the Berlin Philharmonic holding their father's hand are now in their 40s and 50s and are joined by their children..
Since Maestro Wilhelm Furtwängler had been in power for over 20 years, everyone vaguely thought that a new person would appear at some point..
There were several candidates..
Talented figures such as Daniel Barenboim and Sonlerj Gergiev were mentioned as candidates..
In fact, he had a personal relationship with the Berlin Philharmonic and Furtwängler..
10After encountering the angel and devil at the Berlin Philharmonic a year ago, public opinion began to change..
Still, many classical music fans have not forgotten Dvořák's New World, when Dobin Bae conducted the Berlin Philharmonic when he was six years old..
21Bae Do-bin's ability to interpret music and tune the notes were so outstanding that he was praised as the best symphony performance of the century..
There were many people who hoped that he would grow up and lead the Berlin Philharmonic in the future..
On the contrary, at some point it became a wind..
Bae Do-bin's brilliant talent did not leave him alone, and Berliner Philharmonic fans could only feel disappointed..
But finally.
Bae Do-bin appears after a long wait and is recognized by Furtwängler for his capabilities as a music director..
I inherited the ‘Canon’ of Nia Balgrei, the Berlin Philharmonic’s treasure and Berlin’s most beloved concertmaster..
My heart felt warm again.
Meanwhile.
There was a man whose heart warmed in a different way..
Charles Braum was the best violinist in England and is currently considered one of the best classical musicians in their 30s along with King Gau and Seunghee Lee..
He clenched his fist while looking at Bae Do-bin's article..
“This is fun. I didn't get the Firebird, but I got the Canon.?”
Charles Braum, who had wanted to compete with Bae Do-bin several times in the past, once again recalled memories of the past..
I don't know how long it took to catch up with Bae Do-bin's violin..
I wanted to be recognized by Bae Do-bin..
However, he did not receive any attention from Bae Do-bin, and now even his lover Firebird seemed to be ignored..
No matter what anyone says, the Firebird, made by master Stradibody during his prime, is without a doubt the best violin..
It could not be said to be better than the Canon, which was used by Paganini, the devil's violinist, and is now called a treasure of the Berlin Philharmonic, and indeed, a treasure of mankind..
Childish stroke. A feeling of improvement. Lack of qualifications.
And Charles Braum himself wanted to be recognized by the violinist he thought was the best..
Charles Braum sang with his lover.
“ Already?”
The next day after the year-end concert.
Camilla informed me that the concertmaster audition for the Berlin Philharmonic will be held in a month..
“Already? I've been waiting since Mr. Balgray retired. Do you know how difficult it was to make a schedule because of that??”
Even if I auditioned, it was obvious that I would be the one, so for me, it was a matter of becoming a concertmaster two months after returning..
That's why I felt like it was already.
Come to think of it, it was definitely a long wait for the Berlin Philharmonic..
Maybe, even though I didn't say it, I wonder if Furtwängler was really waiting for me..
“So how does the audition proceed??”
“Basically, make it public. Wilhelm will make the decision, but I'm just trying to show that he's transparent..”
Wilhelm?
I knew Furtwängler and Camilla got along well, but this was the first time I called him by his name..
Camilla may not have realized it, but they continue talking casually, and it seems like they are having a good emotional exchange even though the age difference is quite different..
“Then I will participate too..”
“Fill out the application form and send it by email..”
“It would be me anyway.”
I'm used to computers, but when they ask me to fill out an application form, it's annoying, so I complain, and Camilla laughs..
“well? It won't be easy?”
Camilla, who doesn't even know me, says something like that, so I wonder if there's something there..
“Charles Braum applied. He is a great violinist and has a lot of experience. He also has orchestral experience..”
“who is that?”
“uh… … I really don't know?”
Camilla asked again, and I was thinking about it again, and I think there was a guy I had a heated argument with at some point..
“You're the owner of the Firebird..”
“Ah, the firebird.”
He's the guy who started a fight after buying a Firebird that he didn't buy before..
I had Nina Kebehiri play music to help me find the treasure that is her..
“I'm not the type of person to be pushed around by that kind of chaff..”
“well. Cheer up anyway.”
I had to go home now, so Camilla and I got up and packed up..
“Then I'll go first..”
“okay. Go in carefully.”
“yes. Then have fun on your date with Chef..”
“uh? uh?”
Camilla shouted as she looked blankly at Bae Do-bin leaving the room..
“Dobin! How did you know? Is it Noia? noisy?”
