1. Sound and painting blend to create a audiovisual feast

Wagner once said: "Opera is a drama with music." In addition to the success of an opera, there is an excellent script blessing, and it is inseparable from the music that fits the development of the story. The two complement each other and are indispensable. Most of the modern Chinese national opera music is mainly based on the Western symphony band. How to tell the Chinese story with Western bands is a test of composer skills. The national opera "Yan Yan Team" both reflects the excellent intentions of the production team in terms of script creation or music fit.

The prelude is a key role in the opening music of an opera, playing the theme of the whole play. The prelude to the "Yan Yan Team" is mainly based on the symphony band. The fixed sound drum and the copper tube instrument group started the magnificent melody. Essence Subsequently, in the string group, there was a crying ensemble, and a green lotus leaf on the stage was connected. The piano -like piano dial is embellished in it, showing the full water village temperament. In the fog and fog, a curved boat in the lotus fields from far and near, and the lake wandering ripples ... The realistic set of scenes, high -definition LED screens and holographic screen projection, perfectly intertwined the stage of the stage and technology, the entire stage, the entire stage Like a flowing Danqing ink painting, the audience was pulled into the beautiful scenery of the Pearl Pearl of North China at once. Above the boat, the return of Baiyangdian Anti -Japanese Hero Liu Diansheng. A song of "Return to Bai Yangdian" has exhausted the revolutionary aspirations and determination of the Red Army soldiers and completed the task. The whole sighing melody begins with soothing and smoothness. As the description gradually fluctuates, the prelude music is to be perfectly connected with the first scene music, which also leads to the start of the entire drama background and the beginning of the story.

How to show this magical soldier with music? The composer adopts a variety of singing forms such as rotation, chorus, and lead singer to conceal the images of the alerts of the planes under the lotus leaves and reeds. The unpredictable lotus leaf soldiers are like the sharp blade of the enemy's heart, playing a vital strategic role in the entire North China anti -Japanese guerrilla battle.

The composer also created a personality fun for the protagonist. As soon as the prelude music sounded, he knew which character appeared: the pretty and integrity, the heroic Yinglian, the playful and cute Xiaoling, the friendly mother, and swinging uncertainty Liu Jincai, Master Shen, who is profitable ... One by one, with distinctive and unique characters, accompanied by music with different styles of music, the plot is fascinating and progressive, and the theme of sublimation is sublimated. When Xiaoling's arrested plot advanced to the stage of tension, the sigh that scolded the traitor to sing the audience and enjoyed it. When Yinglian brought the enemy into the ambush circle, the plot entered the climax. When meeting each other ", when he was brave, the audience also left a sorry for tears.

The theme song "Yan'er Fei" runs through the whole drama. Sometimes the entire chorus, sometimes one or two fragments appear. With the different storylines and emotions, the accompaniment instruments, rhythm, speed, harmony of the theme song are different. It constantly evokes the memory of the audience and plays the finishing touch of the thought of sublimation center. The melody and cordial and rustic lyrics of the mouth of the mouth sang the heroic spirit of the fighters of the Yan Yan team bravely killed the enemy, and also filled the warriors' tenderness of the heroes of their hometown and their loved ones.

The whole work of "Yan Yan Team" has gained excellence from music creation to actor singing, from script design to stage performances, and from props dance to technology. Let the audience feel the revolutionary feelings of Yan Yan soldiers in the blend of the audio and painting, so as to achieve the dual fit of visual and hearing.

Second, tell the story of Chinese revolution with traditional Chinese music

Although the whole work is mainly Western symphony, it always reveals the shadow of local traditional music: Hebei folk song minor tone, drama evaluation, Baoding old tone, Allegro, traditional percussion Xunzi, and three stringed music ... In the framework, the entire opera is full of Yan Zhao's local colors. For example, the composer in "The Wind Blowing the Lotus Ten Miles" was re -created based on the melody of the Hebei folk song "The Beams of the Mountains". The melody sounds kind and beautiful. In "Let's Meet", the composer also joined the vocal board of Hebei Xunzi "Tightly Solding Singing", and then with the gongs and drums to pass the door music, pushing the plot to a climax. The integration of local folk songs and opera has achieved natural smoothness, and the rap of dialects has no sense of disobedience, and it also shows the composer's deep skills of local traditional music and song writing. On the stage of the "Thirteen Art Festival" this year, we also saw the national opera works of revolutionary themes such as "Yimeng Mountain" and "Red Ship". These works are not only excellent themes, but also novel interpretations, and their music also has distinctive local characteristics: Hunan's folk song flower drum opera, Shandong's fast book Yangge, Hebei ’s old -fashioned drama and other traditional Chinese music, which gives the special texture of opera music, and also gives composers to compose composition Home creation brings an endless art source.
