China Grand Canal Quyi Cultural Alliance,
Create a new platform for open exchange of quyi
The first China Grand Canal Quyi Culture and Art Festival was jointly sponsored by the China Grand Canal Quyi Culture Alliance, Jiangsu Provincial Mass Culture Society, Jiangsu Folk Writers Association, Huai'an Municipal Bureau of Culture, Radio, Television and Tourism, Huaihe Ecological and Economic Belt Public Cultural Tourism Service Promotion Association, and co-organized by Jiangsu Provincial Group Literature Association Quyi Professional Committee and Huai'an Cultural Center.
Huai'an is the base camp of the "China Grand Canal Quyi Cultural Alliance". On April 10, 2021, the China Grand Canal Quyi Cultural Alliance was established in Huai'an, the ancient cultural capital, under the guidance of the Chinese Quyi Society, and co-sponsored by nearly 60 cultural centers in Six Provinces and Cities along the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal in Beijing, Tianjin, Hebei, Shandong, Jiangsu and Zhejiang. "The establishment of the alliance will create a new platform for open exchanges for music workers and enthusiasts along the canal." Wang Huaisheng, director of the Huai'an Cultural Center, said that Quyi is a special carrier of Chinese national history and national literature, and has its unique charm and connotation. For thousands of years, the grand canal culture has also been integrated into the art form of quyi in its development, and the historical monuments, natural features and cultural heritage along the canal have laid the foundation for the prosperity and development of quyi culture.
Ni Ming, chairman of the China Grand Canal Quyi Cultural Alliance, said that the core of the Grand Canal culture is the culture of "water", the flowing canal water connects and communicates between the north and south of China, the great songs of the Tang Dynasty, the drum words and palace tones of the Song Dynasty, and the hundreds of cultures and styles of music and art such as rapping, drum words, and allegro that arose in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, all of which are inextricably linked to "water". This has allowed the rap art of the Grand Canal to flourish and pass from generation to generation. It is believed that with the continuous linkage and interaction of cultural centers along the Grand Canal, it will also bring a different feeling to public cultural services in the new era.
Ni Ming believes that the Grand Canal Quyi Cultural Alliance is just a platform for the people of the cultural centers along the canal to learn, exchange, interact and evolve with each other, and the activities it will carry out in the future are not only quyi, any cultural and artistic style loved by the broad masses of the people will be the service products we provide, in other words, as long as the people love, we will match.
Innovative Canal Qu art organic connection,
Meet the new expectations of mass culture
It is precisely from the in-depth excavation of canal qu art culture and the tight grasp of the cultural context of the Grand Canal, the China Grand Canal QuYi Cultural Alliance combined with the new needs of the new era, explored the new cultural value of canal qu art, innovatively took the traditional culture along the Grand Canal as the main line, through information exchange, resource links, interactive promotion, cooperative development and other forms, the various forms of qu art along the canal were organically connected; at the same time, it was able to closely connect the provinces and cities along the "drinking canal water" to carry forward the culture of the Grand Canal and enrich the cultural life of the masses. The development of quyi culture and art is the common goal and the link between the two, and we will work together to protect, inherit and utilize the excellent traditional cultural resources along the Grand Canal, and jointly promote the development of the national quyi cause. From hobbies to professional arts, from small to large-scale development, the canal opera culture from the people's amateur, spontaneous, self-entertainment mass culture, to the regional and group characteristics of the social culture, and then to everyone to participate in, everyone to enjoy, everyone to create a public culture.
Since the establishment of the Alliance, with the vigorous promotion of peers and colleagues in cultural centers (stations), multi-level, multi-form, multi-category and multi-regional qu art cultural exchange activities have been organized. The first member congress of the first session of the "China Grand Canal Quyi Cultural Alliance", the symposium of "Chongde Shangyi", the strategic cooperation agreement signed with Jiangsu Huazhikang Group, and the members of the presidium of the alliance went deep into the alliance city of Linqing to visit and collect winds, and the first China Grand Canal Quyi Culture and Art Festival, which was successfully concluded recently, is another innovative and creative move of the Alliance relying on the profound canal cultural accumulation, fully excavating the rich quyi resources, and solidly carrying out mass quyi activities.
