Chapter 1034

Ryleigh was startled.

Charles walked up to her and patted her on the shoulder. "Ryleigh, we can't expect others to fight for us. When everyone else is looking down on you, the more you have to prove it to them."

Ryleigh's confusion was instantly cleared after listening to Charles's guidance.

She smiled, thanked him, and then left his office. "I understand now, thank you."

Looking at her leaving his office, Charles gave off a satisfied grin.

In the next few days, Ryleigh brought in a few students from the orchestra department.

They obviously looked a little bewildered.'

Ms. Hill, why did you summon us here?'

Ryleigh looked at the music manuscripts in her hand and laughed. "Let's start a hand!"

One of the girls looked even more confused. "A hand?"

Another girl sighed. "What kind of band can we form? The students from the solo instruments department will surely laugh at us for playing music for a funeral when they see us rehearsing." "Yeah, thanks to them, we're often not in the mood to practice recently."

Ryleigh glanced at all those dispirited students and clapped her hands once." Those who tell you that the orchestra is only suitable for playing music for a funeral are all blind. They're the ones who don't know how to appreciate what great musicians have left behind for us. So, if we don't do something to prove them wrong and pop the massive and egoistic bubbles that they surround themselves with, they'll only treat us even more like rubbish!"

The students were caught off guard, probably because this was their first time seeing Ryleigh being so inspiring.

"Pfft!" The two female instructors" peals of laughter came from the door, and there were several students from the solo instruments department standing beside the instructors.

"Ms. Hill, the only person that you're proving wrong with what you just said is you. The orchestra department is already at death's door,

so why even struggle?"

Ryleigh's expression dimmed. "Who told you that the orchestra department is already at death's door?"

One of the female instructors crossed her arms and smiled arrogantly. "Isn't this a known fact? How many people have your department recruited this year? Has your department managed to recruit more than 100 students?

"Most of the talented students have applied to pursue their dream as a soloist. Didn't the piano and violin solo major take up 40% of the total application this year? Even the number of students that the other solo majors recruited is several times higher than what the orchestra department has. The only thing that awaits the solo instruments department is a bright future. Is that something that your department can compare with?"

The students of the orchestra department who were standing below the stage looked aggrieved when they heard those comments. Nobody would want to hear that what they majored in was worthless. Ryleigh released the fists that were hanging on her sides and chuckled. "It's said one can never master everything in music. You don't even fully understand the music that great musicians had left behind for us, yet you've already started to belittle their creations.

"Did the 12 years of compulsory education teach you only to worship what's new and forget everything that was left behind so that we can learn from them? All you've done so far is humiliate the classical music that we people from the orchestra department learn to play in the name of love for music, and to what purpose? Proving to the public that the modern music you soloists play is superior? Is this your upbringing?"

The female instructor's expression changed. "Ryleigh Hill, what I've put forward are the facts. You'll have to accept it eventually even if you don't want to."

"Why should I accept it as it is!?" Ryleigh pointed to the outside, and her voice sounded sonorous and powerful. "Are you acting so arrogantly only because the musical pieces that have been shortlisted by the academy to be submitted to any international music summit over the years are all from your department?

"Then I dare you to answer this question of mine. What would you tell any foreign media if they were to ask you about any musical masterpiece in the history of music that you've played before this? Are you going to tell them about the jazz, soul music, or blues that you soloists love so much?" The rehearsal hall was silent for a moment, and the students from the solo instruments department looked at each other and did not dare to utter a word.

As for the female instructor, she choked on her saliva as she was probably shocked by Ryleigh's dominance throughout the whole debate. She then opened her mouth, "You, what kind of fallacy are you trying to-"

Ryleigh jumped on the stage, pointed to them, and refuted, "Is this a fallacy? This is the truth! Jazz originated in the Afrenikan-Zlokovian communities of New Oakdale, Letherbridge, in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Soul music also originated in the Afrenikan-Zlokovian communities found throughout Zlokova, while blues music originated from the deep south of Zlokova around the 1 860s. These three genres are known as the three major musical genres of modern music, and you don't need me to tell you that."
