Chapter 227: The Electronic Version of "Dingjun Mountain"
Chen He looks majestic, but his band is not the huqin and gongs and drums on one side, but the modern instruments on the other side, guitars, basses, drum kits, keyboards, accompanied by flickering lights, giving people the feeling of being in a discotheque.
Most of the audience below are young people, and they are too familiar with this state, so they can't help but excitedly stretch out their hands and start swaying to the rhythm.
"This epistle came at a good time,
Help me Huang Zhong succeed.
Standing at the gate of the camp the three armies called,
The big and small children listened to the root seedlings: "
The singing voice of this section is the same as that of Peking Opera, but with the music behind, it makes people have a very special feeling, as if Peking Opera sings like this, which is also very good.
"The head is full of drums, and the war rice is made;
Two drums, tight robes;
Three-way drum, knife out of sheath;
Four drums, the soldiers handed. ”
At this time, the orchestra of Peking Opera also urged the huqin and gongs and drums, and the combination of Western and Eastern instruments made everyone feel that this combination was not abrupt, and even echoed each other.
With two kinds of music, and with the choir, it actually brings everyone a feeling of autumn soldiers on the battlefield.
The audience in the audience was excited, I didn't expect Peking Opera to be able to play like this, what is this, electronic music Peking Opera?
But there is such a doubt in the hearts of many people, is this still Peking Opera?
Mei Wenjiu's home.
Li Zhengsu frowned slightly, watching the "bells and whistles" performance on TV, although he was a little unhappy in his heart, he didn't say it.
Mei Wenjiu watched this kind of performance on TV with some appreciation, but there was no look in his eyes.
After Chen He's performance, Li Zhengsu took a deep breath, looked at Mei Wenjiu, and said, "Master, what do you think of this?"
Mei Wenjiu pondered for a moment, showed a meaningful smile, and said, "Susu, what do you think?"
Li Zhengsu didn't expect the master to kick the ball back again, so he couldn't help but show a wry smile on his face, shook his head and said, "I don't know, I never thought that Peking Opera still has this form! Is this still Peking Opera?"
Mei Wenjiu said with a smile, "Back then, in the magic capital, in order to attract customers, the Golden Phoenix Troupe filmed a series of scripted plays, the god list, not only Weiya on the stage, but also various lighting special effects, and some of the actors on the stage did not wear costumes, do you think this is Peking Opera?"
Li Zhengsu opened his mouth and said with a wry smile, "Of course I know, the result is that the Golden Phoenix Troupe is famous, although there are no particularly outstanding characters, but in those years, no troupe can surpass them, but, Master, is that also Peking Opera?"
Mei Wenjiu looked at Li Zhengsu with some seriousness and said, "Susu, I handed over the Meilanfang Peking Opera Troupe to you and made you the head of the troupe, but I don't want you to be locked by this position, I found that over the years, your art has not made much breakthroughs, is it because this position of the head of the troupe has involved too much of your energy!"
Li Zhengsu was a little puzzled, but still said, "Master, the affairs of the Peking Opera Troupe are indeed very busy, but I have never put down my practice." ”
Mei Wenjiu shook his head and said, "Su Su, I didn't mean that, my expectations for you are more than these, your current achievements are far from my imagination, and I found that your ideas have been a little solidified in the past few years, there has been no breakthrough in art, standing still, you are now at this age, although you have passed the peak, but it is the time when your art is the most mature, and it is the time when you should have a breakthrough, but I haven't seen your progress, Su Su, to be honest, I am disappointed!"
Li Zhengsu hurriedly stood up and said with a guilty face, "Master, I disappointed you, Su Su was wrong!"
Mei Wenjiu looked at his most beloved apprentice, and also sighed, and said, " Su Su, since my father founded the Meilan Fang Peking Opera Troupe, to my generation, it is just a success, I am already dying, I can only tell you my lessons and lessons, let you take warning, I put my hope on you, your talent, your efforts, are all a momentary choice, I was in you, and even saw the shadow of my father, so I put all my hard work on you, I hope you can make a breakthrough and bring the art of Meipai to a peak. ”
"Hey! Mainly because my body is not as good as before, I handed over the Peking Opera Troupe to you, so that you can bear this pressure, delaying your growth over the years, I decided, Susu, from now on, you step down as the head of the Meilanfang Peking Opera Troupe, let go of these burdens, return to the original intention, and re-study, in my lifetime, I will guide you well, I hope you can make a breakthrough, and I can also look under Jiuquan!"
Li Zhengsu burst into tears, held Mei Wenjiu's hand with both hands, knelt in front of his lap with admiration, put his head on his knee, and whispered, "Master, thank you, Master!"
Li Zhengsu felt that he was still like the ignorant little girl at the beginning, the first time she saw her master, she looked at this great man in the Peking Opera industry with admiration, and called Master in a low voice.
Mei Wenjiu touched Li Zhengsu's hair with his hand, as if he was touching Li Zhengsu, who was more than ten years old, and Li Zhengsu in his eyes seemed to have returned to his beginning, and sweetly called himself a master, which made Mei Wenjiu smile happily.
In the studio of Beijing TV Station.
The electronic music version of "Dingjun Mountain" made everyone present extremely high, it is conceivable that this song will definitely become the first choice of major discotheques, it is too burning, and there is also the content of Peking Opera, which makes the value of this song suddenly double, and the price is also high to the horizon.
Li Fan and Chen Mei glanced at each other, both of them are about thirty years old, and they usually listen to classical music, or folk music, and it is really the first time to listen to this kind of electronic music, but this feeling is quite difficult to describe, and it is very complicated in the depths of my heart.
But the audience below does not have this kind of entanglement, a group of young people in their twenties, is the main force of the discotheque, today let everyone listen to such a hi and so burning electronic music song, suddenly let everyone be touched, it turns out that electronic music does not have to be an English song, it does not have to be the kind of meaningless nonsense song, the palace-level Peking Opera in everyone's heart, can also be added to the electronic music to become so beautiful, this is the best!
Pei Yanzhi didn't have any expression after listening to this song, because he still had no bottom in his heart, this was the first time he really integrated Peking Opera into pop music, although the singing method of Peking Opera in it has not changed, but it has been added to the electronic music, and I don't know if anyone will really like it.
There will definitely be defenders who stand up and criticize themselves, but Pei Yanzhi does not value those people, but the 200 audiences at the scene, as long as he sees the number of votes waiting for them, Pei Yanzhi probably knows whether this adaptation can be successful.
Li Fan and Chen Mei were also cautious in their comments this time, because they also saw that Pei Yanzhi was targeting the Peking Opera industry this time, adapting Peking Opera, and it was such an earth-shaking adaptation, which was to break the current situation in the Peking Opera industry, and many people would definitely stand up and accuse Pei Yanzhi of not respecting Peking Opera and respecting the rules, after all, Pei Yanzhi's current status is high, but there are also many enemies.
Li Fan and Chen Mei also commented casually, and it ended hastily.
Chen He in the audience also knew Pei Yanzhi's thoughts, so when Pei Yanzhi asked him for his opinion, he made it very clear that he would follow Pei Yanzhi, and he could play in the second round, because his works were the most subversive.
The other four Peking Opera actors, Pei Yanzhi also got them some very "out-of-the-ordinary" Peking Opera songs, two of them made it clear that they were not suitable for singing like this, and they still hoped to be able to sing regular Peking Opera.
Pei Yanzhi didn't force it, and after studying the voices of the two of them very carefully, he found them two classic Peking Opera singing segments, and taught them very carefully the breath and details they needed to master, which also made the two of them like a treasure, and their hearts were also full of guilt for Pei Yanzhi.
But Pei Yanzhi said with a smile, "This is your right to choose, if you don't like it, you don't like it, don't force it, this is your own way, you have to stick to it which way you choose, don't be confused by foreign things, you are willing to adhere to the traditional Peking Opera, I agree very much, because the tradition must be inherited, and I also chose innovation on the basis of inheriting the traditional Peking Opera, if I don't have the foundation of tradition, I will come to these innovations, then everything I do will be in the air!"
The two Peking Opera actors also nodded firmly, everyone has their own ambitions, and they can't be forced, and these two people don't have any mistakes.
Adhering to tradition is the right way, and innovation is also the right way.
