Chapter 422 Air on the G String
The chatter offstage gradually died down with these words.
Hathaway’s displeased expression gradually improved, and she looked at Tessa in pleasant surprise.
She felt that it was a good decision on her part to accept Tessa as her protégé.
And so, amid the surprised audience, Kathleen was in disbelief over what was happening. With the deep and eloquent melody enveloping the room, the audience couldn’t resist but close their eyes and immerse themselves in the music with how poetic the melody was.
“It’s Bach’s Air on the G String.”
Finally, someone said the name of the song.
Yet, as though Tessa did not notice what was said, she closed her eyes as she immersed herself in the music while performing the one-string piece in her own method, flawlessly demonstrating the high level techniques she possessed.
The bigwigs of the music industry were stunned.
‘Air on the G String’ was considered a difficult piece to perform with the violin.
Due to the restriction on the other three strings, the musician had to play the piece mainly on the G-string. With the varying range of tone as the accompaniment, it created layer after layer of sound, as it allowed for a richer variation in the melody.

“Amazing. I can guarantee you that she has definitely practiced single-string performances before.”
“Definitely. To play a single-string piece on the G-string requires a high level of force.”
“She looks pretty young to me. For someone as young as her to have mastered the technique in playing a single-string piece, I’m sure playing with all 4 strings available would further shake us to our cores.”
“It’s a shame that her violin strings snapped. Otherwise, we would be able to witness her skills in playing with 4 strings.”
Kathleen listened to the admiration of the audience and had never expected for the prior incident to have become the catalyst for Tessa’s current achievement.
Consumed in anger, Kathleen clenched her hands into fists while her gaze was filled with discontent.
Meanwhile, Hathaway’s close friends were singing Hathaway’s praises for having an excellent judgment in accepting such a good talent as her protégé.
Naturally, some of the guests were envious of her.
“Hathaway, just what kind of luck did you stumble upon for you to have such a talented student?”
“With such talent, given time, she’ll definitely become a master.”
“I’m suddenly feeling the temptation to poach a talent.”
Listening to her good friends expressing their envious thoughts, Hathaway failed to keep a hold of her expression as she had a triumphed look on her face.
“She is my protégé. You won’t be able to poach her away no matter what.”
Hathaway’s friends were speechless, feeling downhearted at her confidence, which was why they decided to just ignore the pleased yet carried away woman, and focused on appreciating the music.
After some time, Tessa’s performance came to an end, which prompted thunderous applause from the audience.
Tessa then flashed a courteous smile and bowed to the audience before leaving the stage with her violin in hand.
When she was in the backstage resting lounge, tears started to well in her eyes as she stroked the violin in her arms with a heartache.
The other members of the orchestra had heard about what had happened onstage, which was why they came over and tried comforting Tessa.
