Recently, the third "Shenzhen Vocal Music Season China Vocal Talent Training Program" activity with lei Jia, famous singer, vice chairman of the Chinese Music Association and doctoral tutor as the initiator and artistic director, was successfully concluded, and the series of course videos of "China Vocal Talent Training Program • Master Open Class" have also been produced and launched for free on several major video platforms such as Tencent, Youku, iQiyi, and Sohu.
In August 2008, Lei Jia participated in the "Olympic Music Torch Relay" activity and sang the Olympic music national ceremony "Song of the 56 Nationalities of China", so it was well known to the national audience. Since then, she has starred in a series of classic opera works such as "White Haired Girl", "Mulan", "Ballad of the Canal", "Daughter of the Party" and so on, which are deeply loved by the audience. She also held a special concert of national folk music "Journey of Roots and Roots", which made useful explorations in the artistic and temple-like aspects of folk songs.
While constantly improving herself, Lei Jia has also been paying attention to the future development of her vocal career. She launched the "Shenzhen Vocal Music Season", together with vocal educators, composers, conductors, theorists, opera directors and experts in various fields such as art directors, to guide vocal learners and build a platform to help young vocal music talents realize their dreams.
As a veteran practitioner in the vocal music industry, Lei Jia's own learning experience has enabled her to better appreciate the confusion and confusion of vocal performers entering the artistic path. "I was fortunate to have received careful guidance and selfless help from many teachers and artists of my predecessors when I was growing up, so I knew the importance of the artistic path leader and platform. That's what motivated me to start the vocal season. ”
Adhering to the original intention of injecting high-quality young strength into the vocal music industry and lighting up the artistic road for young performers, Lei Jia and many industry experts launched the "Shenzhen Vocal Music Season" activity for three consecutive years. The third event in 2021 is based on the teaching structure of the previous two sessions, adopting the mode of "promoting learning with competition, promoting performance with learning, and applying what you have learned", inviting industry experts with rich theoretical and practical experience as guides to help young dreamers take off.
The masters of this open class gathered to quickly build a thinking on the processing of works with diversified teaching, and the students also responded warmly, saying that they had benefited a lot. Student Li Beibei said that Teacher Huang Ying's open class is frank and vivid, and the teaching methods are colorful; Teacher Shi Yijie's open class is to the point, clear and clear in point of view, and has a unique understanding of the style of the work; Teacher Liao Changyong's open class is interesting, and can use unique appeal to quickly bring the students to the artistic conception of the work, and naturally follow his ideas to understand the connotation of the work.
In the past three years since the Shenzhen Vocal Music Season was held, a large number of vocal talents have been trained, and Lei Jia also invited Chen Yingzhu, an outstanding student of the first session, to the stage of the National Centre for the Performing Arts, as a female lead singer to perform the opera "Daughter of the Party", interpreting the voice of the heroine "Tian Yumei". Chen Yingzhu said: "Teacher Lei has been constantly showing me that it must be exploded, the word head must be bitten clearly, and the speed of biting the word must be accelerated in order to express the emotions and emotions of this track." I am very grateful and cherish this opportunity. Lei Jia believes that it is the responsibility of an art practitioner to carefully promote the younger generation, "I am also on my growth path, and I often trouble my teachers." This is an artistic inheritance, but also a spiritual inheritance. So I also hope to be able to help these young people as much as I can, to help them grow. ”
At the same time, Lei Jia also combined his own experience and put forward the call to "learn from books, learn from the people, and learn from the masses". Lei Jia looks forward to a high-quality professional vocal talent team with full theoretical and practical coverage in the future, and playing a new chapter in Chinese vocal art.
