Chapter 889

Chapter 889 Solo Performance “I feel that I should focus on learning how to deliver a compelling performance in my future training.” Tessa was all praise for the performances.

“You have made great progress in both your violin skills and your sense of music, but it still wasn’t captivating enough, so you should pay more attention to it in your later training sessions.” Sofia nodded as she was pleased that Tessa could accurately pinpoint her weakness.

Tessa nodded in understanding. As the concert went on, Tessa paid full attention to the performance as she was eager to learn from them.

Soon, it was Group Six’s turn to perform. As Susan held on to her violin, she walked in together with her members with her chest out and head held high. After she was in position, she glanced at Tessa before looking at Sofia determinedly. She vowed to give a stellar performance to wow the audience so that Sofia would acknowledge her talent.

Soon, the performance started. Susan calmed herself down and performed while applying the knowledge that she had learned thus far. It could be said that her performance was perfect.

She had managed to tweak her musical style to be integrated with the orchestra, which made it sound harmonious while preserving her own flair at the same time. Sophia, who was an excellent musician, naturally noticed Group Six’s change in style and was rather surprised to see that the change actually came from Susan. It was out of her expectation that Susan could adjust her style in such a short period of time. Did she receive guidance from someone else recently?

On the other hand, Tessa furrowed her brows as she watched the performance because Susan’s style reminded her of Kathleen’s, as both seemed very similar.

Not long later, Group Six ended their performance and bowed to the audience before leaving the stage. Before that, Susan purposely glanced over at Sofia, wanting to observe her expression, but she couldn’t tell anything after seeing Sofia’s expression, which made her doubt her own performance. Feeling frustrated, she went back to backstage.

“The group performances have ended, but if you haven’t had enough of it, don’t worry because solo performances are coming up,” the emcee went onto the stage and announced.

The following performers were outstanding musicians from each group. Of course, Marjorie and the others would be performing too, as they were Sofia’s protegees, which made them popular within the orchestra. It was their performance that managed to amplify the night’s atmosphere, and each performance was remarkable.

“What do you think of your seniors’ performance?” Sofia suddenly looked at Tessa and asked.

“They were incredible! I’ll have to work harder so that I’ll be as good as they are.” Tessa confessed her heartfelt admiration.

“I’ll need to work harder too.” Gregory nodded because he seemed to be motivated by what he saw.

Looking at how earnest and motivated they were made Sofia pleased. Soon, it was Tessa’s turn to perform, and she went backstage in advance for preparations.

“Let’s welcome Tessa Reinhart on stage for her solo performance.” After the announcement was made, Tessa, who was donned in a black maxi dress and high heels, walked onto the stage with poise. She looked stunning when the spotlight shone on her.

Tessa was naturally nervous since it was actually her first time performing her own piece in front of all the orchestra members. However, when she noticed Nicholas and Timothy in the audience, it gave her the courage to perform. Her worries had all together dissipated, especially when she saw Gregory cheering for her from his seat.

Right after, she positioned the violin on her shoulder and started playing it. As the melody progressed, it transitioned from soft to loud, as if depicting a story of a couple from knowing each other to having a misunderstanding and finally reconciling.

The vibrato within a few phrases denoted the couple’s quarrel, but after that, it transitioned into a sweet and upbeat rhythm which was intriguing.
