The opera "Sister Jiang" sang Haikou, so that the red classics continued to circulate

Since the 1960s, the opera "Sister Jiang", created and performed by the former Air Politics Cultural and Labor Troupe, has been sung for a long time. A few days ago, a song "Red Meizan" once again echoed in the Hainan Provincial Song and Dance Theater, closing for the 2021 (22nd) Hainan International Tourism Island Joy Festival.

This edition of "Sister Jiang" was produced by Red Baidai (Beijing) Culture and Media Co., Ltd. according to the 2007 rearrangement version of the former Air Politics Cultural and Labor Troupe, and the original team of the fifth generation of "Sister Jiang" was assembled again. Soprano singer and fifth-generation "Sister Jiang" actor Wang Li starred in this time, and sun Shaolan, the second generation of "Sister Jiang", also returned to the stage.

With the development of the literary and artistic undertakings and the times, how to pass on a large number of classic literary and artistic works created and performed by the former military cultural and industrial troupe is a topic that the industry has been discussing. Chen Xiaotao, a tenor singer of the former Kongzheng Cultural and Labor Troupe who played Fu Zhigao and Jiang Zhangzhang in the opera "Sister Jiang", believes that it is better to start with "Sister Jiang". "Whether it is the script or the music, the content or the form of the performance, 'Sister Jiang' has been tested by the market for half a century as the peak work on the Chinese national opera stage, and although it has been rehearsed several times, it has never been far from its national soul." Chen Xiaotao analyzed from the singer's point of view, drawing on the "help cavity" form of Sichuan opera, which is one of the most unique attempts in the creation of "Sister Jiang", which is very in line with the environmental atmosphere and story temperament of the fierce underground struggle in the work, "We must retain the artistic characteristics of the red classic works and let them be passed on without deviation." ”

As the artistic director of this edition of "Sister Jiang", Chen Xiaotao said that starting from Haikou, in the future, the crew will take this original classic opera to more cities across the country, especially to perform in the hometown of the martyr Jiang Zhujun and the place where she worked and sacrificed. Red Baidai (Beijing) Culture Media Co., Ltd. will also continue to be committed to the excavation and inheritance of red classic works such as opera and dance drama.
