There is no doubt that Mozart's shadow is hidden in the protagonist of the story. Perhaps the word "Tibetan" should not be used, after all, the shadow is too obvious-abandoned by the world, but using genius music to soothe all beings.
"A man who does not exist" is his summary of his life. One can actually live without leaving any evidence of survival.
yes. evidence.
A birth certificate. a name. an identity.
This is evidence.
his breath. sound. image. music. Can't prove its existence.
Even when he is present, the only protagonist of eternity. He was born to dominate everything with music. With flying fingers, command those men and women who are prominent or ordinary in the world. Dominate everything, but stay out of it.
He is looking for life in the eyes of every dreamer.
He has no dreams. Or, his life was a dream.
The "originator of jazz" with diamond-encrusted teeth, an extremely expansive and mighty existence, is a great existence that the world is eager for, but in front of him and his piano, it shrank into dust.
The piano is his weapon. The source of his magic. Evidence of his existence.
So, as a baby, he appeared with the piano. His life seems to have started from here. No home, no parents, no relatives. He was born on the piano. The piano is at sea. He was born at sea.
He never heard the call of the sea. The farmer told him: When you hear the call of the sea, your life will change forever!
But for him, the sea is the end of life, and the boat is the only place to stay. He was on the ground in a stormy boat. How can one imagine another life on land.
The land is calling him. Like the sea calling to the farmer. He hopes that one day he can hear the call of the sea like a farmer.
He didn't understand that the call of the sea, the call of the land, was the call of the unknown.
The farmer stepped out of the field. He couldn't get out of the boat.
Even if there is the girl who looks at the sea and listens to the call of the sea. Let his heart move, and play the "tenderness like water" tune. Make him long for an ordinary life.
He returned to the ship at the last moment. He longs for another kind of life, the life that exists on land that belongs to every ordinary person. But it was the unknown that scared him, and he didn't have the confidence to master everything there. He was only used to life on a boat. He was only used to using his piano at sea, to dominate everything.
The storm shook the ship like an autumn leaf, and he used the piano to treat seasickness for the maladapted from land.
On land, what does he use to treat his maladaptive?
It is better to go back, go back to everything he is familiar with, and be the protagonist forever.
Because
ships are limited, cities are endless.
The sea is limited and the land is endless.
Life is limited, dreams are endless.
The keys are limited and the music is endless.
We dominate the finiteness of everything. At the same time afraid of the endless.
