The concert "Everything Grows - 24 Solar Terms Symphony Suite" original by the China Broadcasting Arts Troupe was recently staged at the Shunyi Grand Theatre. In the nearly two-hour performance, the elaborate large-screen video closely echoed with the 24 solar terms, accompanied by the artistic mood and atmosphere created by the live lighting and dance, the grandeur and thickness of the symphony, the colorful colors of traditional Chinese ethnic instruments such as bamboo flute, three strings, gong na, guzheng and so on, the agility and elegance of pop music, supplemented by the singer's emotional chanting, the passionate interpretation of electroacoustic instruments, and the graceful multitude of dancers, leading the audience to immerse themselves in the dreamlike music and painting movements.
Yang Qing, a young composer of the China Broadcasting Art Troupe, has given the "24 solar terms" different personalities from a unique perspective, flexible and light like "spring equinox", soft and feminine like "cold dew", hot and light like "small summer", cold and resolute like "big cold"... Different styles of seasonal music flow with the four seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter, showing the characteristics of the era of "innovation, integration and diversity". As a cultural brand carefully planned by the China Broadcasting Arts Troupe for five years, the concert "All Things Grow - 24 Solar Terms Symphonic Suite" not only expresses the artist's awe and deep feelings for the natural time sequence, but also expresses the sincere praise of traditional Chinese culture.
Liu Xuejun, head of the China Broadcasting Art Troupe, chief planner and creator of the "Twenty-Four Solar Terms Symphony Suite", introduced: "24 solar terms" embodies the philosophical idea of the unity of heaven and man in ancient China, and is the crystallization of the wisdom of agricultural civilization, and the reason why we have mobilized so many forms of expression and creative means is that we hope to use the way of storytelling to present the "24 solar terms" on the stage in a simple and simple way with the language of art, which is loved by the people and the public, and nourishes their hearts with traditional Chinese culture.
After the performance of "All Things Grow - 24 Solar Terms Symphonic Suite", the Spring Festival Heyi Shunyi Cultural Benefiting People Performance Season has staged 8 wonderful performances on 6 stations including concerts, cross-talk, magic and other performances, and held 2 public welfare activities.
