His private persona, however, was in sharp contrast to these wildly frenetic performances.
If he was quiet in private and in contrast he was noisy when he conducted his performance as maestro. So C is the answer in the first blank
The other blank must be in line with his calmness.
The correspondence was full of reflective thoughts so D
And his family life was serene or calm or joiful. Not a turmoil which means chaos or pedantry
I hope now is clear
let me know sir if you need further explanations.
Always follow the flow of the sentence and its shifts
