Chapter 53: Funeral of musician
The sky was gloomy, and a little drizzle floated, enveloping everything of Aalto in the rain and mist of veil, as if even nature was in sorrow and could not help crying.
The black hearse pulled by the four bulls moved forward slowly, and more and more citizens stood on both sides of the street in the hazy drizzle, watching them passing with sadness.
The crazy, almost riotous concert in the city is only a few days past, and the melody seems to reverberate in the hearts of everyone who listened to the music. Therefore, after hearing the news of Lucien Evans' death, he has not forgotten They were moved and shocked, and they couldn't control their emotions.
For the part of Lucien Evans who told them the spirit of never giving up, for the precious and pure joy he brought, they rushed to the streets, for Aalto's proud and talented musician Lucian Evans See you off.
The drizzle of rain hit their faces, making them moist, as if mixed with tears, adding to the spirit-giving atmosphere.
If it is a week later, if it is not in Aalto, it may be difficult to have such a spectacular scene. The streets that pass by seem to be crowded with people from the entire city.
He watched the hearse go away, and some people who were full of emotions or adored Lucien Evans rushed into the street, rained, and joined the guard team.
队伍 As a sad, throbbing person in a black coat followed spontaneously from different streets, the team grew stronger and stronger.
When the hearse entered the aristocratic area, most of the nobles who were invited to participate in the funeral of Lucian Evans became stunned, because they saw a crowd of black people around and behind the hearse. "People" like a black tide with a sorrow and grief felt slowly moving forward.
Maybe they have never seen so many people come together except for the municipal broad chalk field of the Alto concert. Because of the same purpose, these nobles seem to have an illusion. When ordinary people are connected, a terrible power erupts, as if unable to stop it, and can devour everything on the way forward.
"Unexpectedly, Lucian Evans turned out to be so popular and worshipped." Aristocrats with knight ranks seemed much calmer in such a scene, and secretly sighed, "If my funeral, so many people can send and protect spirits, That is the greatest glory other than the coming of the true God and the Lord's help. Even if you die, there will be no regrets. "
When the hearse passed, the nobles also joined the guarding team. This is a part of the funeral of truth theology. Those who will participate in the final funeral must **** the hearse to go the last distance, not because they are too worshipped and love Lucian Evans and his music. Ordinary people protect the spirit together.
哥 The cardinal Cossie in front of the golden cathedral looked at the spectacular and horrifying guardian team, his face changed slightly, and a subconscious drew a cross on his chest, whispering: "Only truth will last!"
When Ling Ling entered the golden cathedral, the ordinary people in the spiritual guard team were not willing to leave for a long time, and were covered with mist and drizzle, praying and blessing around the church.
This made bishops and priests feel unspeakable, as if a saint was about to be buried inside.
Uh ...
In the Great Hall, the Ling Ling was placed under the cross, symbolizing that he was a devout believer.
Grief ceased, Cardinal Cossey held a milky holy cross and solemnly said, "Compassionate and merciful Lord, today we offer our prayers for the brothers of Lucian Evans. Take it. We are convinced that everyone who believes in you, accepts you, believes in you, respects you, and follows your path will get your redemption and rest in Paradise Mountain. "
The nobles, musicians, musicians, etc. who filled the auditorium closed their eyes and prayed.
"He is a pure, pious, noble man, and his music, as you teach it, brings strength and joy to the world. May he continue to offer you beautiful praises in your country ..."
After praying, Coser looked at Natasha, Joel, Alisa, John, Victor and others kindly, and looked around the hall with a calm voice: "The Lord teaches us that death is like night, but after night, the light is bright It will come. Death is not to be feared, for all our deceased brothers and sisters will ascend to the mountain of heaven and be with us in a country that can still communicate with each other and pray for each other. "
After blessings and prayers were the reflections of relatives and friends. Joel, Alisa, John, Victor and others came forward to speak, recounting the bits and pieces of Lucian Evans before his death. Others follow the Lord's teachings and comfort others, so that they can restore their inner strength and move better into the future.
I waited until the end of reflection, Natasha walked to Cardinal Gosse.
She was wearing a long black conservative dress, black gauze covered her long hair, and slightly sadly recalled some joyful things with Lucien Evans, and finally said quietly: "He once said to me However, if one day he fails to make a will, he will donate the 'Brons' estate belonging to him to the musicians' custody. "
Speaking of this, musicians such as Othello nodded slightly, and Lucian Evans was indeed a purely music-loving person who could donate most of his property, the estate, to the association.
Natasha continued: "He hopes to use all the proceeds of the estate to create an award and a competition. The award is a tribute to the best musical work in the continent within three years. It will be selected by all the official members of the Aalto Musicians Association. The competition It is also an all-continent piano competition held every three years to promote the development of a new musical instrument such as the piano, inspiring and inspiring more piano lovers to truly embark on the road of music. "
The Bronx Manor was given to Lucian by Natasha. It is worth thousands of quintals, and the income is also good. The annuity is about one hundred quintals, which is equivalent to a famous musician's annual The total income, three years together, has reached 300 quintals. For many impoverished musicians or piano enthusiasts who have just set foot on the music road, even if only half, it is a very, very generous bonus.
"Mr. Lucien Evans has a golden heart. He is concerned about the development of music and those who are new to music." Othello stood up on behalf of the Musicians Association to thank the donation. "I propose to award and The competitions are named 'Evans Music Award' and 'Evans All-Continent Piano Competition'. At the same time, the Aalto Musicians Association has decided to make an outstanding contribution to the development of music or write an immortal classic master standing stone statue. "
"They will be built on the top of Cassia Mountain next to the Belem River, so that everyone who comes to Aalto and every playing child can see them, and then know the bright names."
Christopher and Victor and others nodded: "I have no opinion."
The neat but warm applause sounded in a funeral atmosphere, a noble character and a love for music for a great musician.
At this time, Natasha added: "I also donated the proceeds of a private estate belonging to me, so that the prizes of the" Evans Music Award "and the" Evans All-Continent Piano Competition "will be stabilized to 300 gold. Thaler. "
"Thank Your Royal Highness for your generosity." As for Natasha's request, Othello did not object because the competition bonus was the same as the music award bonus, because the three hundred Kintals would definitely score first, second and third prizes, otherwise they would start The role of encouraging and inspiring the latecomers is no longer available.
Joel, Alisa, John and others did not have any objection to Natasha's unauthorized disposal of the "Brons" manor. They believed that Her Royal Highness would not forge last words for a manor and that manor was given to Lucian by Natasha. of.
Only Cardinal Cossack frowned slightly: "'Evans Music Award'? This form is similar to the 'Holm Crown Award' and" Immortal Throne Award "by evil magicians. It seems that Lucian is from the princess His Highness or the professor was inspired. "
However, under such circumstances, he cannot speak out, and there is nothing worthy of attention in an award in the field of music.
With the establishment of the "Evans Music Award" and "Evans All-Continent Piano Competition", the funeral funeral has been completed. The people participating in the funeral led the choir singing hymns and blessings in unison to make the atmosphere of the funeral sacred. solemn.
He waited until the end of all the processes, and the Cardinal Cosher sprinkled holy water on the coffin to clean all the ugliness and crimes brought on the earth.
The coffin was again lifted to the cemetery near the Golden Cathedral, and Natasha, Joel, John, Alisa, Victor, Felice and other relatives and friends of Lucian followed, other nobles, music The family left the Golden Cathedral and returned home.
As soon as I walked out of the church, the aristocrats were startled by the crowd still wandering around. How many people were waiting?
Seeing the nobles coming out, people waiting for the last part of the funeral flocked to the nearby aristocratic cemetery and saw the black coffin put into the grave across the iron railing.
The rain stopped for a moment, and a few rays of sunlight shone through the clouds. When the church guards filled the soil into the tomb, the sadness and sorrow again filled.
The tawny mud drowned the maggot a little bit, as if to cut off the last connection between the dead and the living. Elisa, Felice and Alina burst into tears and couldn't help crying, Joel, John, Victor Natasha and her eyes closed with soreness.
The people who saw this scene couldn't bear the atmosphere of repression and farewell, all followed to close their eyes, and some people even cried.
Suddenly, a girl's hoarse choking voice sounded:
"Happy angels are holy and beautiful, and the bright light shines on the earth." ...
The joyful and solemn song seems to be very out of step with the solemn and sad funeral, but the spirit it contains is so consistent. Lucian Evans keeps yelling, just to tell everyone face Don't give up your sufferings, but you must keep on going to the light and joy.
As a result, people gradually became infected, and more and more people sang along:
"On this beautiful earth, all sentient beings rejoice." ...
The singing became louder and louder, and it was introduced into the cemetery. Felice and Elena cried even more sadly when they heard it, but Natasha sang along, leading them to soothe their hearts and inspire them with this singing voice. Life.
"All people, no matter whether they are expensive or not, are holy."
哭 Crying and choking, they sang this song to say goodbye to Lucian.
"Happy angels are holy and beautiful, the bright light shines on the earth ..."
With a touch of sorrow and hope, the song of mixed quietness and tears sounded repeatedly and refused to stop.
In the chanting, the tombstone was erected after the burial, with a short epitaph written by Natasha:
"There is an angel of music buried here."
Uh ...
The night is quiet and quiet, inside the aristocratic villa.
John sat on the sofa with his family and didn't sleep for a long time. (To be continued. [This text is provided by @ 小艾 332335]. If you like this work, you are welcome to ◤start◢◢ to recommend and vote, your support is my greatest motivation.)
