Tian Denian (1889-1978) was a native of Chang'an, Shaanxi. Qin Cavity Flower Face Famous Artist, 14 years old to learn art, first learned primary school students and then changed to work flower face, and then traveled around the class to perform. In 1952, he joined the Northwest Academy of Opera. In 1958 and 1959, Tian Denian twice performed with the Shaanxi Opera Troupe Jinjing and toured thirteen provinces and cities, and the rough and fiery Qin cavity flower face performance aroused the admiration of the audience in the north and south of the river, and thus his reputation was greatly shocked.

Tian De, who is young and virtuous, is an authentic face, whether singing, composing, or typhoon, he is calm, majestic, solemn, and calm.
Tian Lao's singing, according to the comparison of the scholars, although the purity of the timbre is slightly inferior to That of Zhang Shouquan Zhang Lao, the overall qi rhyme is extremely similar, it is the authentic Qin cavity big flower face singing style, the dragon groans and the tiger roars, and the atmosphere is majestic. Tian Lao has been practicing art for more than 70 years, and in 1902 he entered the Shuangsheng class to learn art, and after 1921, he took classes in the Xianyang Tian Yangmin Opera Class, the Jingyang Haiwazi Drama Class, the Restoration Society, the Folk Music Society, etc. In 1928, he formed the Xinxing Society with Chen Jingmin and became the president. From 1944 to 1951, he successively took classes in Shaanxi, Gansu, Ningxia and Qingdao, and performed more than 100 plays, including "The Case of Yanmei", "Bai Dingben", "Yellow River Array", "Jade Tiger Fall", "Guoshiqiao", "Chopping Single Child", "You West Lake", etc. He Zhenzhong and Liu Yiping co-starred in "ErjinGong" Zeng Jinjing, and participated in the first national opera observation and performance conference in 1952. Jia Xiangdao of "Touring the West Lake" won the first prize of the first drama observation and performance conference in Shaanxi Province in 1956, and attended the representative meeting of advanced workers in the provincial cultural system in the same year. The Bao Zheng, Yu Rang, Xu Yanzhao, etc. he played are also full and thick, and the shape is forced to be Xiao, which can be called the reputation of the northwest. He was a deputy to the Shaanxi Provincial People's Congress and a member of the Xi'an Municipal Committee
Didn't Mr. Wang Shaoyou call Zhang Shouquan "the temple of the old-school pure horns"? Of course, those who are "in the temple" can also be understood as "sweeping the tail and pressing the front", because Zhang Shouquan at that time was indeed "not two for a while" and "did not see the person who came". Tian Denian appeared in Xi'an, before and after the 1952 National Congress, I watched Tian Lao's play and knew that his big name also began in Si, so I think that the "old-school Temple of Pure Horns" was Zhang Shi in the former, and Tian Lao after the 1950s. Today I dare to make this certainty, because the old man of time has laid out the indisputable facts for us. So what are the signs of being called "old-school"? I speculate that when it is characterized by "natural simplicity", that is, there is no superfluous thing, real, spoon by bowl, no fake carving, square rules, Tian Lao singing to give people a distinct impression, it is exactly so.
