Melancholy Cello Surreal Artwork

A cinematic surreal scene of a lone figure beneath a giant glowing cello, useful for editorial art about classical music, sadness, and hope.

Prompt
Create a cinematic surreal digital artwork in a wide 16:9 canvas, depicting melancholy giving way to hope through classical music. In the center background stands one enormous upright cello, taller than the architecture, split visually into two contrasting halves: the left half is charred black, cracked, smoky, and partially ruined, while the right half glows warm amber-gold as if lit from within, with sparks and radiant dust bursting outward. At the bottom center, show exactly one small seated human figure, a solitary young person with hair in a bun, wearing dark loose clothing, sitting on the reflective wet floor with head bowed beside the glowing cello, creating a strong sense of scale and loneliness. The environment is a ruined monumental interior or stage, with broken plaster walls, tall vertical panels, stormy darkness on the left, warm luminous mist on the right, and a glossy cracked floor reflecting the figure and light. Include exactly two staircases: one dark staircase receding upward on the left and one red-orange staircase rising into the golden haze on the right. From the cello, let flowing musical staff lines sweep dramatically to the right with scattered musical notes, like sound becoming visible. Add exactly six prominent abstract geometric accents on the right side: one red diamond near the upper right, one yellow circle at mid-right, one red circle below it, one small dark blue dot near the music staff, one black-and-gold vertical rectangular block beneath the diamond, and one thin vertical red bar near the top edge. Use a painterly mixed-media style combining photorealistic lighting, distressed collage textures, cracked concrete, smoke, golden particles, and expressive brush marks. Color palette should contrast deep charcoal, slate blue, and black on the left with ivory, ochre, amber, and red-orange on the right. No text, no watermark, no frame; emphasize dramatic chiaroscuro, emotional silence, and the feeling that a cello sonata is transforming sorrow into light.
