Chapter 100: These Are the Words of the Master!

Tang Xiulan quietly listened to what Lin Bao said.

Basically, in Lin Bao's point of view, one is to get out of the circle and combine with other art forms. The second is to build its own fixed cultural circle.

In fact, as an opera person, she actually agrees with the second point.

Build your own fixed cultural circle.

At present, unless there is a major change in the form of opera, it is absolutely impossible for opera to reproduce the momentum of tens of thousands of empty alleys a few decades ago.

The best way to do this is to find a way to build your own cultural circle.

In fact, not only opera, but also modern poetry, traditional literature, and traditional skills, have been like this over the years, and they have been circled on their own side.

And among them, the focus is on the increase of fresh blood, as well as the increase of new audiences.

Especially the latter.

It goes back to the previous question.

It needs to be accepted by the audience, but the current audience, especially the young audience, is largely unacceptable to the content and form of opera.

Then there is only a Lin Bao one, which has changed in content and form, and even combined with the current pop art.

However, if this is the case, then is opera still opera?

Isn't the things handed down by the ancestors spoiled?

For others, change it. But for them, the inheritors, it means that they betray the inheritance and lose the true content and excitement of the opera.

This is also the unanimous view of the majority of people in the opera industry at present.

I want to change, but I don't want to lose it.

You can't lose it!

If you lose it, you lose your essence!

......

Looking at Tang Xiulan, Lin Bao also roughly knew what she was thinking.

In fact, that's what art inheritance is.

What's more, it is this kind of thing that carries national memory and national pride.

Domestic opera people strictly guard the position of opera, do not accept it, do not agree with the adaptation, although it is not self-contained, but to a certain extent, it has also killed a lot of opportunities for publicity.

"Mr. Tang, let me give you another example. ”

Lin Bao thought for a while and said, "A few years ago, cross talk was basically the same as opera, and even worse than opera. In domestic cross talk, everyone is pulled together, and they can even count one or two generations to the same Mr. Inheritance.

But why has the status of cross talk gradually risen in the domestic comedy circle over the years. It is an ancient art, but it can be wildly welcomed by many young people and even girls, no less than chasing stars.

Why?

Because it has been updated in terms of content, there used to be old guankou and the name of the dish when it came to power, and it has become a joke for young people. In terms of cross talk content, it is also constantly combined with popular elements, and the taste is more acceptable to young people.

Now, many of the cross talk predecessors of decades ago, the content on stage, and the rules they abide by are no longer visible. But can you, isn't the current cross talk cross talk?"

When Tang Xiulan heard this, her face also changed slightly.

Lin Bao continued: "Actually, let's analyze what are the similarities and differences between the old cross talk and the new generation of cross talk. What's different is the content, the joke. What is the same is the essence of cross talk, humor. As long as you grasp the humor, then the quality of cross talk will not change.

The same is true of opera, handed down by the ancestors, opera singing, opera style, these are actually outdated, and can even be classics and unique. It's just that in terms of content, it needs to be updated, and it also needs to be combined with popular elements. ”

......

Listening to Lin Bao's words, although Tang Xiulan's stubborn stance on opera has not changed, in her heart, she actually has a little bit of thought about the behavior of opera going out of the circle.

She also knew that the two Rao had different positions.

I look at the problem from the perspective of an opera artist, but Lin Bao looks at the problem from the point of view of artistic inheritance itself.

In fact, many times, outsiders see more clearly than insiders.

After chatting for more than 30 minutes, Tang Xiulan saw that customers kept coming to the barbecue stall, and she ended the conversation in time.

The two of them walked out together.

Walking to the door, Lin Bao hesitated, but still said the last sentence: "Teacher Tang, opera, what you pay attention to is nothing more than eight words, 'no singing, no movement, no dancing'." It's a delicate art, and it's an art that deserves to be passed on, but ......"

Tang Xiulan, who was walking, heard his words, and her footsteps suddenly stopped and stopped.

She didn't listen carefully to Lin Bao's words, but in her mind, the eight words he mentioned before kept echoing.

"No singing, no movement, no dancing!"

She herself, who began to learn opera in her teens, has been on stage for more than 30 years, and knows the opera singing, chanting, sitting, playing, and moving.

Therefore, Lin Bao's inadvertent eight words hit her heart at once.

No singing, no movement, no dancing!

Where there is a little sound, there must be the charm of singing, and where there is a little movement, there must be the meaning of dancing!

At the same time, there is not a single sound that is not a beautiful singing, and there is not a single slight movement that is not a beautiful dance!

One sentence, eight words, all at once summed up the charm of the whole opera!

Tang Xiulan looked at the young man standing next to her with some surprise, and suddenly became awe-struck.

At first, she listened to Lin Bao, and she had only heard some stage dramas from time to time, so she didn't care much about it. But I didn't expect that this young man's understanding of opera was so profound!

Tang Xiulan's teacher, an old opera artist who has passed away, once summed up his life's opera life in a classic sentence in the industry. The general meaning is like this sentence "no sound, no singing, no movement, no dancing".

What kind of insight and understanding of the art of opera is required?

Thinking of this, Tang Xiulan suddenly stood up, and arched towards Lin Bao with a gesture in the opera.

Lin Bao was a little dazed by her sudden action: "Teacher Tang, you are ......"

"No sound, no singing, no movement, no dancing. Lin Bao, your words exhaust the essence of opera and are the words of a master. With this one sentence, I should bow to you. Tang Xiulan said seriously.

Lin Bao hurriedly said: "I'm just blind, what kind of master is it." Teacher Tang, you should be the senior I respect and learn from!"

To be honest, although he has top-notch entertainment ability, through this period of contact with other Rao, Lin Bao himself gradually has a deeper understanding of true artistic cultivation.

Teacher Qian, Teacher Tao, Teacher Xiao, and Tang Xiulan in front of him, although they may not be as good as him in terms of knowledge and understanding, but their respect for education and art is worth learning from him.

Especially the artists of the older generation, as well as the inheritors of some traditional skills in China, although they are not as concerned as the popular culture now, they really do things with a serious attitude towards culture and inheritance.

This kind of seriousness is also reflected in their self-cultivation and demeanor

Through the edification of these arts, a Rao cultivation can really reach such a point.

This is also the purpose of Lin Bao's own music.

......

Leave the eating street and get on the taxi to the airport.

Cao Dalong turned his head to look at Tang Xiulan: "I see that you have a good chat with that son, do you want to come here and get a good harvest?"

Tang Xiulan nodded: "Well, he does have a very deep understanding of artistic content. But what makes me feel even more incredible is that some of his insights on opera are even beyond my feelings!"

Cao Dalong was also a little surprised: "Is it so exaggerated? A 25-year-old young man even commented on him like this as the vice president of the Opera Association?"

"Not an exaggeration!"

Tang Xiulan said, "Although I haven't seen him perform, the kind of incisive understanding of the art of opera is by no means something that ordinary people can come out." Listening to Mr. Qian before, his attainments in music even Mr. Yang Yi paid attention to him. Now it seems that his attainments in opera are not bad! If it weren't for the inright time, I would have thought about talking to him more!"

"Heh, it's great in music, and it's also great in opera, here's it, it's open, right?"

Cao Dalong suddenly pouted and joked.

"Maybe it's like Mr. Qian, he was born different from ordinary people in this regard. ”

Tang Xiulan said, "Only by following such a person can Zige really learn something." I think Zige himself knows this, so he would rather give up the opportunity to participate in the 'Singer's Night' and concentrate on learning guitar with him. This is an opportunity for him!"

Cao Dalong nodded.
