The old temple and the old drum shook the sky, and the bank of the Yellow River was over the New Year. I am now in the Party group service center square of Yinjia Village, Laomiao Town, Fuping County, and I can see that the local people use the unique way of celebrating here to welcome the arrival of the New Year.
Reporter Zhang Kaixin: The fierce drum beat, the warm drum sound, makes people's blood surging with blood, so next, let everyone experience the enthusiasm of this drum with me.
Reporter Zhang Kaixin: Hello
The crowd: Hello
Reporter Zhang Kaixin: Just now I saw that you beat the drum very enthusiastically, so please can you simply teach me how to beat this drum with both hands.
Crowd: Okay, start with your left hand first, hit your left four times with your left hand, start with your left hand, take one hand at a time, hit it to the left, then to the left, and then to the right. Right hand to the right, left hand to the left, five more up and down, then left hand, then left, right hand, then left hand.
Reporter Zhang Kaixin: One-two-three-four-five, that's right.
After the simple experience, I feel that although it sounds very warm and exciting, it is still a little difficult to knock on my own, it is not difficult to watch, but it does require years of technical practice, then it is also very difficult for the masters to have such a deep foundation.
The old temple drum is a folk popularity rate of high scale and large masses of self-entertainment art form, the lineup of up to more than 50 drums, more than 100 drummers, plutonium and flag bearers, etc., magnificent momentum, drumming sound, drummers as big as 80 years old, as young as five or six years old preschool children, there are men and women, beautiful and powerful, is the unique intangible cultural heritage of our county.
Tian Dapeng, the third generation inheritor of the old drum of the old temple
In the early 1990s, we set up the Fuping Laomiao Laogu Art Group in Yinjia Village, and only about a dozen people participated at that time. After more than 30 years of development, it has now developed into a gong and drum team of more than 100 people. On behalf of counties and towns, he has participated in the CCTV Avenue of Stars and the Heart to Heart Art Troupe for public welfare performances, which have been highly affirmed by leaders at all levels in central provinces and cities. In the new year of 2022, I hope that more people will participate, step onto a bigger and higher stage, serve more people, enliven the cultural life of the masses, and at the same time better pass on the intangible cultural heritage of the old temple and the old drum.
