The time for expedited preparations passed in a flash, and it was November 13th in a blink of an eye.
The rhythm of San Pereto was disrupted by a sudden heavy rain since early morning. But in fact, the rhythm of the entire Harvest Art Festival had been "disrupted" by a sudden news of the premiere of a musical a few days ago.
Many people suddenly realized a problem.
Indeed, in the past month or so, The Rite of Spring, The Art of Fugue, and Twenty Meditations on the Holy Infants have caused a storm-like impact. However, in addition to the reasons of the works themselves and the personal charm of the composers, there is another factor that cannot be ignored and cannot be cut off.
——The giant platform of Turner Cinemas is fueling the trend behind the scenes!
If there were no catalyst-like existence like World Radio, if there were no new form they call "live broadcast", if their theaters had not "fairly" provided channels and exposure traffic behind the scenes, these huge chemical reactions would not occur so quickly and would not be so violent, relying solely on live performances and sermons again and again!
And this time now.
Carloen van Nin's latest musical, Tristan and Isolde, will premiere at the Bayreuth Festival Theater today, November 13! First of all, this date is very subtle, because the 14th to 20th is the last "seven-day celebration" of this Harvest Art Festival, and the musical premiere preview is qualitatively "the eve of the celebration."
As for the exposure traffic of Turner Cinemas, it is no longer distributed to outsiders in a "fair" and regular manner as before.
Instead, it was like a high-pressure water gun turned to the highest setting, pouring water on the head of this musical!
Maybe this is also "fair".
After all, the target of this operation is their own boss.
In fact, ever since Carloen van Nin first arrived in San Pereto and performed an "Adagio", he seemed to have not made any major splash worthy of praise or matching the achievements of "New Moon". Now, the whole world has finally gotten to know Turner Cinemas' incredibly systematic marketing methods and the terrifying power of the huge energy generated by the combined efforts of various channels!
How did this premiere of Tristan und Isolde work?
All the best people in their field found that they could not summarize anything systematically and had no idea where to start learning!
They can only feel the series of ubiquitous crazy changes in the world within a few days, just like the majority of citizens!
It’s everywhere! Big or small, frontal or details!!
Just three days ago, before the morning bell rang, nearly a hundred cities around the world had already posted posters of Tristan and Isolde in various sizes, especially the 20-meter-high velvet curtain hanging on the outer wall of the San Pereto City Hall.
Its outer edge is embroidered with the cinema's logo, golden musical notes, laurel branches and other patterns. The main part is the real shadow of the conductor in the wine cellar-like light and shadow, the virtual shadows of the male and female leading actors in medieval costumes, and the band and sailboats looming in the distance. This huge poster is so designed and visually impactful that it is like a miracle in the morning mist!
In fact, last night the patrolmen had already driven away citizens who tried to cut the edges of the curtains as souvenirs. Even more pitiful were the chestnut trees on Waldstein Street, which had just been whitewashed for frost protection, and most of their bark had been scraped off. Some street performers or third- and fourth-tier musicians composed music on the inside of the bark, claiming that it was a "secret ritual inspired by Carloen Van Nin." No one knew where this completely unfounded "confusing behavior" came from.
The municipal government of San Perto had to post a notice that "anyone who damages the chestnut tree bark will be fined 5 pounds, and anyone who privately cuts off the musical posters will be fined 20 pounds." However, the notice itself disappeared within half an hour. It is said that it was "regarded as ironic art by the citizens, who collected it and sold it to artists to continue to use it as manuscript paper for composing music."
The rollers on the production lines of major printing houses are still turning frantically - San Perto is already printing brochures and posters for the seventh time, in addition to a special limited edition sheet music.
The piano version of the musical Prelude! The composer's signature is stamped in gold on the cover.
The score is a thin book and the price is not expensive, only 1 shilling.
But the qualification to purchase the ticket can only be won through a lottery, and it has now been sold for 10 pounds per copy by enthusiastic music fans!
Then let's look at Fifth Avenue, which is a cross with Waldstein Street and is more characterized by prosperous business: in the window of Gogowa Jewelry Store, a ruby necklace is made into a clef shape, and the label reads "The same style as the male protagonist Tristan (predicted version)".
Another prominent location on Fifth Avenue is the Delancey Stock Exchange, which is decorated in a modern style. While the abstract bronze bull sculpture outside the steps is covered with a medieval-style hoop of the heroine Isolde, the telegraph machine of the Hodbilt Family Construction Company on the top floor is spitting out paper tapes one after another.
"The management of the Bayreuth Theater confirmed that the wooden texture and bronze frame of the resonance dome were produced by the Grosvenor Foundry in which we invested," the company's female secretary read out, "but the factory has temporarily refused to disclose the architectural drawings to the media. They are worried that someone will copy the acoustic structure designed by the employer and thus breach the contract."
The log of the Janus Port Administration recorded abnormal data: of the ocean-going cargo ships that entered the port on November 12, 37% were loaded with velvet cushions for theater seats and velvet carpets for the floor, 29% were tightly sealed performance props that could not be seen at all, and the remaining cabin was packed with "famous singers from the city of Tia in the southern continent" who tried to sneak in - that was what they called themselves after being caught - customs officials confiscated the suitcase of a "singer", which, except for a gold-studded wig, was full of letters of recommendation to Carloen van Nin. They were printed with wax whose authenticity was unknown, and were stamped with the coats of arms of various dukes, princes or masters of art.
Old town.
The fishmonger in the "Kleist Central Market" arranged salmon slices into the shape of the initials of "Tristan" and "Isolde", and a wooden sign next to it read "Kleist's official midnight snack ingredients (rumor)".
As the breathless servants squeezed into the crowd to buy, the lady with earrings was directing the coachman to carry boxes of music scores and auxiliary documents: "Send the Prelude to Prince Anselm's villa! He will hold a private analysis meeting on the eve of the premiere - remember to take Rime Lane, the main street is blocked by a group of freight wagons from the candy factory!"
Finally, even the organist of the Holy Sun Church Cathedral felt that something was wrong.
This old man who rarely goes out suddenly discovered that the seats for morning prayers were just full these days, and he no longer had to add more seats like he did some time ago.
The choir boy secretly told him what he had seen. Everyone was crowded at the door of the record store on Waldstein Street. The Hoffman Phonograph Company set up a listening booth. Through the copper-clad funnel-shaped receiver, people could hear Fanning playing the "Prelude" on the piano himself. An old count fainted on the spot after listening to it. After waking up, he signed a check tremblingly: "I want to reserve 20 vinyl records and put them in my coffin at the funeral!"
The old man playing the organ couldn't help but lament that "the world is going downhill":
"Our Light-Bearer! How come the extravagant festival trend that Saint Lavoisier had finally stopped was brought back by this Carloen van Nin!?"
