On April 18, the large-scale symphonic choral concert "Blue Sky Praise" jointly created and produced by the China Opera and Dance Theater and the Aviation Industry Group was staged at the National Centre for the Performing Arts, and nearly 1,000 spectators watched the performance on the spot.
Zhou Guoqiang, assistant general manager of the aviation industry, director of the Party Building Cultural and Propaganda Department, and spokesman of the press, said that "Blue Sky Praise" is a vivid practice of the national academy and the national military enterprises joining hands to carry forward the spirit of serving the country with aviation. While showing the achievements of the new Chinese aviation industry in the past 71 years, the drama also shows the self-confidence of aviation culture that astronauts have accumulated in the course of hard struggle.
Wei Yinjiu, secretary of the party committee of the China Opera and Dance Theater, said that the Aviation Industry Group is a state-owned mega-enterprise managed by the central government, and the new Chinese aviation industry has gone from scratch and from weak to strong under the leadership of the party. As the largest, most artistic and oldest state-level art theater in the theaters directly under the Central Committee, China Opera and Dance Theater has the responsibility and obligation to display national strength in the form of art and promote the construction of a cultural power. China Opera and Dance Theater will further deepen multi-field cooperation with the aviation industry, give full play to their respective advantages, and join hands to create more outstanding literary and artistic works.
Wu Yue, head of the Aviation Industry Staff Art Troupe, said after the performance: "The 14 songs of "Blue Sky Praise" were written into the hearts of aviation people, and everyone especially liked it, and many colleagues listened to it almost every day, and every time they listened to it, they were full of emotions. ”
It is understood that "Blue Sky Praise" is a large-scale symphonic choral music work carefully planned and created by the backbone of domestic outstanding artists and front-line employees of enterprises, and is a successful attempt to creatively tell the story of Chinese aviation, pay tribute to the spirit of aviation, praise the aviation industry, and praise aviation heroes.
