161 Characteristics of the Cheng School

Since Cheng Xiaolou was the only one who appeared on the stage to explain the law to Liu Fengying and the famous actors in the audience, Xue Pinggui jumped directly after the opening.

Asking and answering questions on stage alone will inevitably seem too embarrassing.

Moreover, this paragraph of white does not have too much technical content, and only plays an excessive role in attracting Wang Baochuan.

It's like the courier who sees the aunt who buys vegetables downstairs in your house and asks, "Auntie, does Li Ergou's family live here?", the aunt who buys vegetables said yes, and then the courier asked again, "Then do you know where Li Ergou is now, there is his courier." The aunt who bought vegetables looked up at her head and said in her voice, "Li Ergou, hey, come down to pick up the express." ”

Immediately afterwards, Li Ergou stretched out his head from the window and ran down with flip-flops in his big pants.

pretending to be a courier to talk to the grocery shopping aunt, Cheng Xiaolou could only skip the blank.

After singing the first paragraph of the opening with a vigorous and delicate old student singing voice, Cheng Xiaolou won the applause of Liu Fengying and others in the audience on the spot.

Just when everyone whispered praise for Cheng Xiaolou's singing and workmanship in surprise, he then sang in an elegant and tactful and intermittent Cheng Pai gossamer tone: "Domon neighbors said to me. Wujiapo came to Wang's Baochuan again, stood in front of the slope and raised his eyes to watch, and an officer stood on the side, pretending to chop vegetables here, and he asked a slave there to answer a word. ”

As soon as Cheng Xiaolou's Tsing Yi singing voice came out, it instantly had the effect of opening his mouth and kneeling.

Although everyone already knew that he was a cow who was born and was hugged by three doors, and they had also watched his video of "Sifan", they heard him at the scene with a tactful voice, low back twists and turns, and intermittent singing, he was still instantly shocked and stunned.

Not only the first-line celebrities who came to play Liu Fengying were suppressed, but even Liu Fengying, who was the first in Tsing Yi, was also shocked.

"What a Cheng Xiaolou, what a Cheng boss!"

Liu Fengying looked at Cheng Xiaolou who was smiling on the stage without blinking, every gesture was made, and every look exuded infinite charm, and her eyes were bright.

Cheng Pai vocal cavity art uses unique comprehensive techniques such as vocalization, pronunciation, voice, and moistening to create a singing voice with a subtle style, deep twists and turns, and intermittent victory.

Although Cheng Yan is known for his graceful throat, he has a unique vigor in the soft melody, which is aggressive and more infectious.

In addition to "softness and rigidity, rigidity and softness", another characteristic of Chengpai's singing voice is the mood and charm of "broken threads" and "intermittent" formed by the control of the size of the voice, the strength of the breath and the use of a variety of air outlets. Its pronunciation is: first collect and then release, first virtual and then real. The second is to use gas to induce sound, to use words and lines to convey feelings.

The pronunciation of the Cheng faction is different from the position of the Mei faction, the Zhang faction, etc., the Mei faction is in the front, the Zhang faction is in the middle of the tongue, and the pronunciation of the Cheng faction is in the back. When Cheng Pai sings, he should always feel that there is an invisible thread above his head that is lifting the voice, so that the voice cannot fall.

The Mei faction and the Zhang faction use the air to support it, and then use the gas to send the words out, rarely singing with reverse cuts, and the sound is also completed instantly.

Cheng Pai uses gas to promote sound, and there are many reverse cut sounds, forming its own unique characteristics.

Danxing four major factions, Cheng Xiaolou especially loves the Cheng faction.

Combined with his decades of study, practice and experience in his previous life, Cheng Xiaolou summed up the ten characteristics of the Cheng School.

The first is the "cough sound" of the Cheng faction. Cheng School singing has a unique vocal method, especially in the use of "cough sound" and "back of the head", forming the deep and dignified artistic characteristics of Cheng Cavity.

"Cough sound" is a vocal method often used by veteran actors, and it is also a decorative sound in music. It is a kind of vocal cord vibrating vocal cord of the air-top larynx, which was originally rarely used in the singing cavity of the horn. However, on the basis of the use of old students, Mr. Cheng Yanqiu creatively absorbed the "cough sound" into the Danjiao singing cavity, so that the cavity was wandering in the throat, holding it but not letting go, which was intriguing.

Whether the "cough sound" is used properly or not depends on the control of qi. If the breath is small, the "cough sound" will not come out, and after it passes, it will form a "smashing ram".

The second is the "ghost sound" of the Cheng School. The so-called "ghost sound" belongs to the category of resonance, and is mostly used for closed accents, and the resonance position is moved back, which is the so-called "back of the head". Mr. Cheng Yanqiu absorbed the characteristics of the old "back of the head", moved the resonance position, and sang it with qi, which enhanced the strength, thickness and sense of solemnity of the singing voice. In the past, some people compared the voice of Peking Opera Tsing Yi to Chen Pimei. It means that Tsing Yi's voice position is Cheng Yanqiu in the back, Zhang Junqiu in the center, and Mei Lanfang in the front, which is not unreasonable in Cheng Xiaolou's opinion.

The third is the resonance cavity of the Cheng School. Mr. Cheng Yanqiu is not blindly singing, but uses the power of qi and the control of the pronunciation part of the singing method to make the vocal cavity dignified, deep, with a certain vertical tone and thickness, find out the resonance position, and then appropriately suppress the frustration, throughput and retract, form a unique Cheng cavity art.

Fourth, the bright voice of the Cheng faction. In Cheng Xiaolou's view, if the voice conditions do not meet the style of the Cheng School, you can't learn the Cheng School, which is really a misunderstanding. Cheng Pai can also use bright sound, but Cheng Pai bright sound must pay attention to thickness and strength when using it, and it cannot be false and bright, so that the bright sound can be harmonious and unified with Cheng Yan's somber and dignified style.

Fifth, the voice of the Cheng faction. Cheng Pai is very particular about the use of qi, that is, singing with dantian qi, it is not appropriate to use the method of chest breathing, the focus is not on the larynx, the vocal cords must remain relaxed, and the focus is on the use of qi. When a play is sung, you have to feel numb in the back of your neck, empty in your lower abdomen, and your voice doesn't feel tired.

Sixth, the breath of the Cheng faction. Cheng Pai not only has a high cavity to be full of energy, but also a low cavity, especially the kind of long cavity that is as thin as a gossamer and continuous, completely relying on the abundant dantian qi, although the tone is low, but the amount of energy is more than that of the high cavity. Lack or less use of dantian qi is often difficult to reflect the wonderful transformation of Cheng cavity. Breathing in Peking Opera breathing and vocal training: sucking, lifting, pushing, and sending, which is obvious in Cheng Pai singing.

Seven is the breath of the Cheng faction. Cheng Pai's singing breath cannot be extended indefinitely, and there must be a breath in the cavity, and it is necessary to ventilate and steal air. Cheng cavity is very particular about the air port, and the ventilation and stealing of air cannot be obvious, so that it is difficult for people to perceive, as if one breath is endless, so as to maintain the integrity, fluency and roundness of the singing voice and emotions. Cheng Yan pays great attention to the preparation and eruption of breathing, and at the same time maintains the beauty of the singing mouth. Sing it to the end in one breath, let alone Cheng Xiaolou, even if Mr. Cheng Yanqiu is alive, it is absolutely impossible to do it.

Eight is the moistening of the Cheng school. Cheng Pai's singing voice has always paid attention to the word "circle", and strives to keep the entire vocal cavity integrated, without edges and corners, seamless, smooth and free, and retracted and released. The "circle" of the Cheng school not only refers to singing, but also refers to reading, doing, dancing, playing, and water sleeves, all of which require the integration of "circle" and beauty.

That kind of angular performance style is generally not welcomed by the Cheng faction, which Cheng Xiaolou performed particularly well on the stage.

Nine is the pronunciation of the Cheng school. Cheng Pai bites the word singing pays attention to the anti-syncopation, and the singing cavity and the door are mostly syncopated, and the Cheng Pai anti-syncopation is the three parts of the prefix, belly and tail of modern Chinese pinyin. Before the word prefix is exported, the gas should be on first, secretly accumulating momentum, using the air to lead the word sound, release the word head, to the word belly, then the gas is full and the sound is all out, and the end of the word is slowly raised, and the rhyme is closed.

Some words, especially the spout words, need to use the method of air resistance, the qi is lifted up first, and the containment is not released, and when it reaches a certain level, it rushes out with the sound of the words.

The syncopated tones in the Cheng Pai singing voice and the passage are the signature sound shapes of the Cheng dialect.

The last point is the system requirements for the Chengpai acoustic cavity. To sing Cheng Pai well, you must be familiar with the plot characters and emotions.

For example, Cheng Xiaolou sang the first "Suolin Bag", in which the delicate and lazy fear of flowing water, the loud sound of the Spring and Autumn Pavilion is bright, and the thin for a moment is like a gossamer, and the day's dripping heartiness, the four singing voices of "Suo Lin Bag" sing out the joys and sorrows of the same character, and the singing treatment has a unique charm.

At the same time, the lyrics of the Cheng School are precise and catchy. It fully embodies the literary, philosophical and speculative nature of Cheng Yan. In Cheng Xiaolou's view, without a certain literary level and aesthetic level, it is difficult to sing well in the Cheng School.

At this point, the Cheng faction needs to be repeatedly experienced and figured out, "the poignant place is lingering, the grievance is angry, the trough is accumulating, and the plain is showing the spirit."

At first, when Cheng Xiaolou sang Cheng Pai Tsing Yi, he only knew that he blindly pursued the most significant "gossamer" characteristics of Cheng Pai, but as he grew older and had more experience of life, he slowly understood the meaning of the three-cross mantra of "seeing lingering in poignant places, complaining and angry, accumulating great momentum in the trough, and showing spirit in plain places".

It is precisely because of these thirty words that Cheng Xiaolou has truly entered the hall in Cheng Pai Tsing Yi, and has gradually reached today's master level.

Life is like a play, and drama is like life.

Although he sings the story of the people in the play on the stage, he is not expressing his feelings in this life.
