Beethoven Reborn - Episode 167
Beethoven Reborn Episode 167
38. hardworking person⑴
We headed to an Italian restaurant recommended by Jihoon Choi..
It was a two-story building made of white brick, and we sat in a garden with red flower beds and parasols..
Nina is still lively.
“Nina, how have you been??”
“i love it! At the last concert, there was a kid who gave a rose, right? I don't know how cute it was.”
Since the 17th Chopin International Piano Competition, Nina Kevehiri has given more concerts than ever before..
I worked more than ten times a month, and my area of activity went beyond Europe and even entered North America. There was no life I was more envious of than that..
Even though it's tiring, being a musician is a job that only becomes meaningful when you meet the public..
“Because my sister’s playing is really cool. It really looks like a gem.”
‘……When did you stop talking??’
Choi Ji-hoon's condition seems to have improved a bit, perhaps because he is mainly active in Poland, Germany, and Italy..
“Has your flattery increased? It wasn't bad.”
“Ahaha!”
Nina smiled as if she wasn't feeling so bad..
To have a headache.
“But Unit 1, you can take your time like this.?”
“What?”
“Isn't there an audition? The boss said.”
I think Himura told me.
“Yes, soon.”
After hydrating his throat with ade, he added:.
“If I can't do it, who will? don't worry.”
“Hmm.”
After hearing what I said, Nina Kebehiri waggled her eyebrows and made a meaningful expression..
“I don't know what a concertmaster does, but he has to play it well too.?”
“sure. It's the most basic. I have to play solo and, above all, I have to act as a leader. General and professional knowledge of the orchestra is also required..”
This is why I want to study modern musicology and music history even when I go to college..
“Then isn't Charles Braum more likely??”
Nina crossed her legs and drank the ade..
“I don't know anything else, but Charles Braum's orchestral career is much longer. Although my experience as a concertmaster is short, I do have it..”
“My older sister, Dobin.”
“Besides, I don't know if I can take some time off. I don't know if it's your piano, but if the violin is the same as before, it won't be able to beat Charles Braum.?”
“well.”
“He turned out to be a really great violinist. If I had known this would be the case, I think it wouldn't have been a bad idea to be with him when he called..”
“sister!”
Choi Ji-hoon suddenly woke up..
“calm down. sit down.”
I tried to calm him down, but Choi Ji-hoon was a little excited..
To him, I am a close friend, brother, and teacher..
It's the same for me. I understand that you get angry when people say bad things about me..
There is no way Nina Kebehiri would say something to upset me..
Just as I was dazzled by her piano, she also thinks of me as her benefactor..
Because he is someone who understands my music well..
At least that means I sincerely think so..
However, my pride does not allow me to say here that I will win..
Anyone can speak.
“Will I wake up??”
After breaking up with Nina Kebehiri, Jihoon Choi couldn't hide his discomfort while driving..
He just didn't say anything, but he was fussing, and I was a little nervous because he got his license as soon as he turned 17..
As a smart guy, he easily passed the difficult driver's license test in Germany..
“why are you so hot?”
“Nina is trying to give me advice. Whether it's Charles Braum or audition, don't think about it easily..”
“I could have said something nice.”
That's right.
The conversation stopped for a moment, so I looked out the window and opened my mouth..
“I'm a little glad that you're so angry, but if you want to have a good relationship with Nina, you need to be more mature..”
Considering the age difference between Nina and Choi Ji-hoon, you will feel like you are looking at your youngest sibling..
“It's not a mature thing to react when people say bad things about you. It was Nina’s fault just now..”
“is it. I took it a little differently.”
“……in what way?”
“No one ever told me I wouldn't win or that I would fall.”
“That's natural.”
“of course. I think so too. so.”
Because it’s Choi Ji-hoon.
I shared a little about what I've thought about over and over again while taking a break for the past four years..
“So I think it's a little boring.”
I'm afraid to be more honest.
Currently, there are only three people in the world that I consider musically equal..
Ryoichi Sakamoto, Wilhelm Furtwängler and Marie Jans.
Except for Hans Jim, they are all veterans in their 70s, and although they say they are 100 years old, they too will pass away someday..
According to the laws of nature.
Then, in that world, I can understand the depth of my music to its core, without anyone to interact with it..
I will live without anyone who recognizes the real me..
To be honest, I'm scared..
Wouldn't it be great if Hans Jim, Michael Blehatz, Gauwang, etc. took a step or two off of their current state?.
Maybe it will be possible when Nina Kebehirina Choi Ji-hoon gets older??
If Chae-eun really devotes herself to music, it might be possible..
But all of this is hypothetical, and as I got older, I felt lonely as the modern masters grew older..
It's because of that that the first thing that came to mind when I was fucking hazed was the death of Wilhelm Furtwängler..
so.
I hope to find someone who shares the same musical world as me, or at least is equal to me in the field I specialize in..
at the same time.
I wonder what kind of person would dare to look over me.
Because it's true.
It is truly difficult..
“ ah.”
“why? Did I leave something behind??”
“no.”
Ishihara Rin asked me for an interview yesterday, but I forgot..
* * *
Berlin Philharmonic Secretariat, Camilla Anderson's office.
Wilhelm Furtwängler looked at the pile of documents and nodded with satisfaction..
“Huh. I received quite a few resumes..”
“300There were so many people gathered around. Everyone is famous.”
“cancer. When it comes to selecting our musicians, it has to be at that level. Where should I check?.”
“Do you really need to check it yourself? I think it would be better to share it with the musicians..”
Camilla Anderson said worriedly.
He is a healthy person, so he is no different from 10 years ago, but considering his age, it was too much work..
“Is that possible? Don't worry, get off work first today. Oh, it's Mr. Dobin's resume..”
Furtwängler picked up Bae Dobin's resume and began to look at it..
Since he already knew the general information, Furtwängler wanted to know what attitude Bae Dobin was taking..
【About Me】
I want my heart to beat.
You can do that again with the Berlin Philharmonic..
Wilhelm Furtwängler silently read that short self-introduction over and over again..
10Bae Do-bin, who conquered the world and became the biggest star in the music world at the age of 12, also had concerns..
A genius who is not satisfied despite receiving so much attention and love, tries to move forward..
Not even Wilhelm Furtwängler could tell what was in front of him..
“what's the matter?”
Furtwängler just looked at the resume for a while, so Camilla asked curiously..
Camilla, who received Bae Do-bin's resume from him, was also able to feel a little bit of the worries of the genius of the times..
“You seem very lonely, Dobin..”
“joy. It's insincere. Sincerity. It's only two sentences.”
Wilhelm Furtwängler grumbled for no reason..
* * *
“Hey, aren't you really taking it too far??”
“sorry. I really forgot.”
“I'm sad that I forgot that..”
I was so busy writing my resume and meeting Nina Kebehiri that I forgot my appointment with Rin Ishihara..
Since last year's end-of-year concert and the start-of-the-year concert were quite tight, I rented a guest room on the third floor of my house and unintentionally left Rin Ishihara unattended..
Ishihara seems to have waited for the promised day to keep an eye on me..
I was able to ask for forgiveness only after feeding her, who was very upset..
“Even though I was very busy working with Himura, we kept in touch well. After she became independent, it became really difficult to even meet her..”
“Himura did a good job.”
I ended the story roughly and got to the point..
“Now, what are your goals as the concertmaster of the Berlin Philharmonic??”
“I haven't even auditioned yet..”
“It's going to happen anyway?”
It's not wrong..
“First, you should become familiar with the Berlin Philharmonic. Me too, the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra..”
“There are still many reviews saying that it has blended in well. Could you please explain more clearly??”
“Right now, I'm just adjusting things unilaterally and the chef is helping me. It's Furtwängler's orchestra. That's inevitable because I don't know everything about the Berlin Philharmonic yet..”
You can say you know the Berlin Philharmonic only when you know each and every performer..
“So, if I become a movement leader, I plan to learn about that first. And in the process, the Berlin Philharmonic will also get to know me..”
Furtwängler is a necessary task in order to add paint to your own color..
That's how long he and the Berlin Philharmonic have been together..
“hmm. Good. I feel like I'm steadily moving forward.”
Rin Ishihara smiled slightly and asked a question that had already been heard quite a few times..
“Next, about Charles Braum. He is a person who is evaluated as being as great as you in terms of experience and skills. What do you think about him??”
“I do not know.”
“ Ex.”
“Because it's true. He never went to his concerts and had no contact with him. It's natural that you don't know.”
“Why was there such a provocation before? I told you that I didn't appreciate the Firebird..”
“You seem like a childish person..”
“Actually, everyone thinks that way. He would be a really cool person if he didn't have that side of him, but I don't know why he's so obsessed with you. King Gau did the same thing in the past. Is it possible that everyone is targeting you or me??”
“I don't know about that, but having goals is probably a good thing for that person..”
I finished speaking, but Ishihara was just looking at me blankly..
“why?”
“It's really amazing. I think you're getting old too quickly.”
When it comes to age, I have a lot in common..
Actually, compared to me before I died, a lot has changed..
I learned how to love in a happy family, and now that I have some free time, I can consider many things..
In the process of studying modern knowledge, I felt many things..
Ishihara Rin's expression is not accurate, but I also understand it..
The more I get used to life as Bae Do-bin, the more I change little by little..
“So last question. When are you going to release the piano concerto you said you made during your hiatus??”
“When I first performed on stage as a concertmaster..”
“That's a great plan.”
Rin Ishihara closed the notepad..
This is her signal that the interview is over..
“Well, it may not be a very pleasant memory for you, but I remember you as Tamaki Hiroshi.?”
Rin Ishihara asked after drinking the remaining coffee..
I shook my head.
“That's why when creek.”
I frowned because I couldn't think of anything, so Rin Ishihara sighed and explained in more detail..
A kid who was ruined by a selfish and stupid group. A cocky guy came to mind..
“yes. Why is that person?”
“After that, I worked pretty hard, but the reviews weren't good both in Japan and in other countries. It can't be helped. Because I was involved in something like that..”
“But I guess I had an accident recently and can no longer play the piano. He was once the best prospect in Japan..”
It appears that the wrong actions of adults ruined a promising talent and ultimately led to its downfall..
Although he was a cocky guy, he would have had the will and talent to represent Japan at the Creek Competition..
It's a pity.
“It happened last year, and I haven't been in contact with the media for a while. From what I heard, he became closed-minded because he hurt his arm and started swearing in the past. … … That guy posted something on his SNS a while ago..”
Rin Ishihara touched her phone and showed it to me..
I think it was posted by a guy named Tamaki Hiroshi..
“I can't believe I can see Dobin Bae sitting at the Berlin Philharmonic again, Rae..”
“I guess you were the hope and goal for that child too..”
Charles Braum and Tamaki Hiroshi.
And the fans looking at me.
suddenly.
I remembered what Hong Seung-il told me..
