Nicolas
is a French teacher, is also a Morricone fans. In 2009 he found our website,
upload a lot of quality music。(see here
and here)
We have maintained close ties over the years. In 2012 he and his wife travel
to China, specifically to Nanjing for visit the author, so forged profound
friendship.On March 12 of this year, he sent an e-mail and telling me that
he will send a souvenir to me. Sure enough, today (April 20) I received
a registered mail sent from Paris |
|
|
I
carefully open the packaging, take out a 42X60 cm picture made by scented
cardboard from the cylinder, maybe a poster. Printing Ennio Morricome's
name and photo in the two sides. Two lines words in the bottom-- One big
font is MY LIFE IN MUSIC,small font is THE MODERN ART ORCHESTRA AND THE
KODALY CHOIR |
|

There are
also a autographed letter by Nicolas and his wife in the the cylinder,
the date is March 15,2014 and from Paris (Left)
Look at this piece of truth feellings gift from thousands of miles
away, I gradually recall the scenarios that they come to Nanjing.
It was their first trip to China, The whole journey was orchestrated
by their own: entry from Shanghai on july 23, 2012, by Nanjing
(this is mainly for to see me and specially arranged) and then
to Guilin, Xi'an, Beijing, last return to Paris on August 11,2012,
totaling 19 days, completely taken independent travel way (For
this point, I admire their travel experience and courage, because
they don't understand the Chinese words) Staying three days in
Nanjing from July 28-30. According to their opinion, mainly visited
Dr. Sun
Yat-sen's Mausoleum, Confucius
temple, the Nanjing massacre
memorial hall and Qixia
mountain scenic area. Nicolas tell me, because they all are
teacher, so they pay great attention to the memorial which has
great historical significance. In order to better received them,
I deliberately invited an old friend Mr. Li-gang to help, he is
a very capable English and French translator, In the past we have
been together abroad for many times. Now he opened a foreign trade
company in Zhejiang province. For the past friendship, he gladly
accepted my request, put down his business, from Zhejiang hurried
back for help. His idiomatic French will must make them happy.
Here a few photos selected for the historical remember (According
to Nicolas requirements in the past, here only published a few
of his personal photos)

Two years passed quickly.
We have kept in touch. They still continue to travel use their holiday.
Last summer they go to the British Guernsey, in the winter christmas they
arrived to French overseas territory Martinique Island located in Central
America. But in his emails, he always mentioned in the China, especially
Nanjing's deep memory. Friendly feelings among peoples is precious, Morricone's
work to bring strangers and thousands of miles away people together .This
is perhaps another
prove of magic of music!
