2014 Brother and sister ensemble
The lazy warm golden sunshine slowly falls down, mixed with the refreshing smell of sea water and the faint fragrance of grass roots, lingering slowly under the nose. The green mountains and plains are spread out in every corner of the field of vision, the vast sky and the vast The ocean has become wider and smoother in the whole world, and the mood has also become open and clear. I can't help but want to close my eyes and wander in the faint warmth and geniality..
The breeze blows, bringing warm water vapor, which falls lightly on the surface of the skin. It is slightly hot but not irritating. It just gradually relieves the tension and stiffness of the muscles. A melodious and moving melody floats along the wind. , clear musical notes scattered messily all over the floor.
That's...Chopin!
Who is playing Chopin??
Arthur Hall couldn't help but stopped, with a little surprise on his face. He looked left and right, trying to find other potential sources of the melody, but in the end he landed on the wooden villa directly in front of him. , this was the only answer. He stepped forward again, pushed open the front door with doubts on his face, searched the room with exploratory curiosity, and followed the source of the melody..
Then, Arthur saw Renly and Edith.
Renly was wearing a simple white casual shirt, with sleeves rolled loosely to his elbows. His messy hair and unkempt beard made him look a little unkempt, like a wandering artist, sitting barefoot at the piano. In front of him, he showed no restraint or embarrassment at all. The melody flowed slowly under his slender fingers. It seemed that no situation could affect his comfort and spontaneity in immersing himself in music..
Renly was always like this, always unexpected, always unexpected, always unreasonable, Arthur shouldn't be surprised, right??
But this time the situation was slightly different. Arthur heard that Renly had suffered from a severe flu and returned to the Hawaii set after completing the Asia promotion trip for "Interstellar". He fell ill immediately afterwards, with a high fever that did not go away, and he was unable to immediately join "Jurassic World". "The filming work, Arthur immediately realized the seriousness of the problem - otherwise, how could Renly delay the filming of the movie? This also means that Renly really has no way to hold on..
As usual, even if he is worried, Arthur will not take any action. The relationship between their families is not that close. At most, they can only send a greeting through the housekeeper or nanny. That is all. As for the condition, that is what everyone needs. The problem they face alone is not a life-or-death moment that requires surgery anyway, so why should they panic? Even if it is, there is no need for them to panic..
But now the situation has changed slightly. Arthur, Renly and Andre are working in North America and have become an important part of Sisyphus Films. After all, the two brothers are different. After repeated hesitation, Yas Se still bought a ticket from Los Angeles to Honolulu..
Arriving at Honolulu International Airport, Arthur met Edith who had flown from London..
For this encounter, both of them were very surprised. They did not expect each other's actions at all, but they both kept their mouths shut. They did not ask the other party why they came to Honolulu. They just silently separated and drove their rented vehicles. After leaving the airport, it was as if they had never met each other from beginning to end, but deep down, they both knew that the two people came for the same purpose, which undoubtedly meant something..
Sure enough, now Arthur saw Edith here with Renly - she seemed to have arrived a little earlier than Arthur.
Arthur cast a confused and surprised look at Edith: What is going on? Why is Renly playing Chopin even though he is sick? Is there anything wrong with Renly's health anymore??
No one expected that just when the whole world was going crazy for Renly, just when the whole world was marveling at Renly's miracles, Renly was... pretending to be an artistic young man? What's going on with the piano playing while he's seriously ill? Is it too much??
So everyone says that there is a huge gap between fantasy and reality. Never bring the screen image into reality, otherwise you will soon be disillusioned with your idol. Arthur fully agrees with this. Look at the blue sky in front of him. Li will know - please, this is not a male god but a madman, okay??
“Wake up! "Arthur really wants to shout loudly to all the Quixotes: Do you know that the object of your worship is a lunatic who is from a literary youth to a middle school student? Please wake up quickly.!
And...why did Edith also pick up a violin and start tuning it??
Arthur rolled his eyes, he couldn't believe his eyes.
But Edith ignored Arthur's doubts at all and concentrated on adjusting the strings of the violin - not only ignored the confusing scene in front of her, she had no intention of asking the reason, and was even ready to join in..
Is this really okay??
Then, Edith found a transition section and joined in the performance just right. The melodious strings immediately enriched the piano music. The combination of singing and harmonizing made the grace and elegance of Chopin's melody more mellow and moving. , as if you can see the hem of the skirt dancing on the dance floor, the switching of footsteps and the turning of the body, disturbing the sunlight on the ground, and the interweaving of the seasons of midsummer and late autumn becomes smart and charming..
Arthur stood there, with a smile showing a little helplessness, but he gradually understood.
Then, Arthur turned his head and looked around. The entire wooden main house of the villa was full of the atmosphere of an artist, with hand-painted oil paintings on the walls, handmade ceramics on the coffee table, handmade low tables in the corners, etc., etc. Every detail in every corner reflects the unique taste of the owner; and the most eye-catching thing is undoubtedly the dazzling array of musical instruments in the space on the right..
In addition to common musical instruments such as violins, guitars, and basses, you can also see large and niche instruments such as harps. There are also a wide variety of musical instruments such as French horns, saxophones, and flutes. Different from professional hobbies such as collecting guitars, I would rather be a professional composer and arranger..
After looking at it for a moment, Arthur also made a decision, took the initiative to step forward, moved the heavy cello from the listed instruments, sat down on the square chair next to him, and began to lower his head to tune the strings..
Hereditary nobles have a tradition of learning musical instruments, not to learn skills, but to cultivate their sentiments. At the same time, they can polish the edges of their emotions and find ways to calm themselves in the melody. This is an indispensable part of noble education. .The Hall family is naturally no exception..
Elf plays the harp, Arthur plays the cello, Edith plays the violin, and Renly plays the piano..
Once, in order to perform in front of guests, the four brothers and sisters of the Hall family also practiced ensembles, and gathered the strength of the four people to give a wonderful classical music performance to the guests. This undoubtedly showed that the down-and-out aristocrats still adhere to the historical glory and class superiority. The best way, the profound foundation is evident.
Arthur still remembered those times. The four siblings were forced to practice ensemble music together. Elf was always serious, Renly always had his own way of doing things, and he and Edith always sat next to them eating melon and watching the fun. If If it can be paired with afternoon tea, it will be a drama without a script..
It was also at that time that he and Edith vaguely realized that something was wrong. It was obviously Elf and Renly who were fighting each other, but somehow they ended up being scolded. Elf rarely complained in front of George and Elizabeth. , but always habitually mentioned him and Edith, and then Edith would push him away to block the gun - as a gentleman, he had no way to condemn Edith, and in the end he could only lust after her. If he faces the "punishment" without tears, George and Elizabeth will give him mental pressure with serious faces. It is not a scolding, but it is better than scolding..
Both he and Edith felt something was wrong but couldn't explain why. Later they realized that it was Renly who had quietly diverted the trouble away..
But the problem is that they can never find the crux of the matter. If they choose to fight back, the end result is often their own misfortune. The depressing thing is that even if they tell others that Renly is the devil, watching That innocent face but no one believed them.
Looking back now, it was really a wonderful and happy time.
It’s not that he misses those years when he was scapegoated and framed, but the troubles of those youth were always so simple and pure, such as missing thirty minutes of cello practice, secretly changing the cook’s whiskey into wheat tea, and deliberately changing the tutor’s music scores Correcting mistakes, worrying about how to unmask Renly's demon, being depressed about not being able to eat the steak that he wanted for dinner...these trivial things took up all of their lives, and as they grew up, they also gradually As we get further away, our worries become more and more complex and heavy..
The first to break the tradition of the ensemble was Renly. Of course it was Renly, and it could only be Renly.
From one day onwards, Renly refused to play for any guests or practice in an ensemble. Even if he was locked in a small dark room, he would always find a way to escape..
This behavior completely angered George. He directly demolished Renly's study, but unexpectedly found a large number of professional performance books and video tapes. Only then did they know that Renly had secretly begun to explore the world of performance for a long time. This made George and Elizabeth extremely angry, thus opening up a period of history of the Hall family..
In fact, Arthur was secretly happy at that time, because they finally stopped playing together. The day after day practice was definitely a torture. Obviously, the cello was not his interest. Renly's rebellion made him succeed. The earth escaped from the prison, and it was hard to avoid secretly rejoicing in my heart..
Today, after more than ten years, Renly and Edith played together again, awakening the memories hidden in the depths of their minds. Although he didn't understand why, Arthur still joined in, just like Edith generally.
