Dawn had just broken in the Eastern Orthodox Cathedral.
"Hurry up, hurry up, the piano and harp are over there, the violin and cello are over there, and the trombone, cornet, and timpani are over there…Get into position, get into position…"
Veronica directed the team members to take their seats in the hall of the cathedral.
The 40 band members found their seats and sat down with their instruments.
The band was divided into four musical groups: String, brass, woodwind, percussion.
Yang Yin was wearing a black tuxedo and holding a baton. He stood on the round platform, slightly above the line of sight of the team members. The team members formed a fan shape and faced Yang Yin, the conductor.
"Alright, Veronica…no, Chekhov, come here!”Yang Yin shouted.
"Boss?"
Chekhov trotted over, somewhat puzzled.
" Take the baton first. Help me start rehearsing for everyone..." Yang Yin handed the baton to Chekhov.
"Alright…"
Chekhov was surprised and pleasantly surprised. He quickly took the baton.
Yang Yin walked to Bishop Vasily's side and said with a smile,""Lord Bishop, the band will officially begin their performance in two and a half hours. Where are the religious leaders and nobles you invited? Are you sure they will all come?”
"Wester, don't worry. The invitations have been sent out long ago. Many people have replied to me and said that they will be there on time. The invitation from the Eastern Orthodox Cathedral is an honor for others, so they will all come!”
"I'm looking forward to it!"
"It's not just the religious bigwigs of the Russian Empire. I have great news for you. Bishop Paul, one of the 12 bishops of Sanctum who is visiting Poland, arrived at our Eastern Orthodox Cathedral yesterday. He will be here on time soon. Wester, I have high hopes for you this time. You must perform well and give this big shot of Sanctum a shocking and unforgettable musical journey!”Bishop Vasily patted Wester's shoulder, looking very serious.
"Lord Bishop, please rest assured. Today, we will definitely give everyone an unprecedented shock, I swear!”
"Yes, I believe you can do it. You are the most talented and youngest musician I have ever seen. In the future, you will definitely be a famous figure in history…"
" You flatter me…" Yang Yin smiled humbly.
"I will never look up to a young man, nor will I look down on a young man. You are very good, and I have high hopes for you!”
"Thank you for your guidance, Lord Bishop. However, Lord Bishop Paul, one of the twelve bishops of the Holy Region, is very……powerful and has a high status?”Yang Yin was curious.
"Of course!"
Bishop Vassily nodded and said seriously,"" Bishop Paul is one of the 12 people in the Holy Region who are only second to the Pope. It is said that there is a lot of support for him to be the next Pope. When he visits any country, he will be warmly welcomed by the king and the archdukes. His reputation and status in the European countries are not lower than my status in Russia. Therefore, if you get his favor, you will be able to go to any country in Europe without any hindrance. No one will dare to stop you…!”
"I see. Thank you for your guidance!”Yang Yin was surprised. In this era, theocracy was still very powerful, especially in Europe outside the Russian Empire.
Even the coronation of the King of Great Britain had to be done by the Pope of the Holy Region.
This was called divine authority!
"As for you, do you have a name for this band?”Bishop Vasily said.
"I got it. Let's call it the Wester Ensemble!”
"It's good to name it after you. When you tour around Europe, you'll definitely become the greatest musician in history. I have no doubt about that!”
At this time, Chekhov began to direct the band's rehearsal.
The preparations for the past few days had already been rehearsed.
However, they had to rehearse for half an hour to get used to the new venue before the official performance. Especially since this performance was very important, and it was the first time the Wester band had appeared, so they couldn't be careless.
The magnificent music quickly attracted Bishop Varys 'attention.
" This music..." Vasily was surprised. He walked up to a member of the orchestra and looked at the instrument in his hand. It was a black clarinete.
"Eh, why is this clarinete so complicated? I remember that the clarinette now only has six keys, but this clarinette is much more complicated. It's already as many as…"
"27 keys and 5 ring keys. This is a brand new claronet system that is way ahead of this era!”Yang Yin laughed.
"Did you ask someone to specially make it?”
"Yes, Lord Bishop. This is also the reason why I am so confident this time. In fact, all the instruments here have been improved by me. They are all far ahead of this era. Through them, the music played will be perfect!”Yang Yin said proudly.
"Is that so? Then I'm looking forward to it. In terms of improving musical equipment, you might have created a new era!”Bishop Vasily praised.
"What are you guys talking about?" Catherine the Second, the Tsar, came with Princess Dolores of Bava. The two beauties were both dressed in gorgeous clothes, and there were female attendants behind them.
"His Majesty and the princess are here. We are talking about the new musical equipment. Look, the instruments used by the Wester orchestra are all brand new and improved. You can see that every instrument is carefully improved.”Bishop Vasily laughed.
"Wester, like how you improved the piano?”Catherine II was surprised.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Yang Yin immediately explained the situation of the instruments in the band to everyone. It could be said that all the instruments in the Wester band were exchanged from the all-rounded music system and surpassed the times.
With such a weapon, as long as Yang Yin wasn't a pig, he would be able to make Wester the greatest orchestra in the world.
"Your Majesty, Your Highness, why are you here early?”Yang Yin was curious.
"I'm just worried about you. That's why I came early!"
"Don't worry, we've prepared everything. There won't be any accidents!”Yang Yin smiled.
"Alright, I'll listen to the orchestra quietly in a while. Oh right, what's going to be played later?”The tsar was curious.
"Mass Solemn in D major!" Yang Yin said.
"Is this music extraordinary?"
"Of course, if you don't believe me, you can ask His Excellency the Bishop. He praised me highly!”Yang Yin looked at the bishop. Mass Solemn in D major was a religious symphony that took four years to compose in his later years. It took him a lot of effort.
This was also the reason why Yang Yin had brought it out. It was because once this work was released, it would definitely cause a sensation in the entire religious world!
