In the bright spring light, the reporter gave a jinhua Daoqing primary training class in Jinhua City, Zhejiang Province, and the lecturers were Zhu Shungen, a representative inheritor of Jinhua Daoqing at the national level, and his son Zhu Yuewen, and the father and son carefully taught jinhua Daoist skills to 20 students.
"Today is the fourth class, we are still practicing the basic skills beat the beat, the master said that the basic skills must be practiced solidly." Student Hu Dajie said, "We are all lovers of Jinhua Daoqing, and we usually practice, but we have not received formal training. The master said that he could teach singing in the next lesson. ”
A bamboo tube, two simple boards, knocking out the crisp fishing drum accompaniment of "chirping, chirping, chirping", followed by the sound of Taoist rap, "Without the Communist Party, there would be no new China..." is a familiar melody, and the details are somewhat different. "This is 'Without the Communist Party, There Would Be No New China', which is sung with a unique Jinhua rhyme," and of course there is a difference." The singer, Zhu Yuewen, the inheritor of the Taoist sentiments in Jinhua City's Jindong District, explained the reporter's confusion.

Daoqing, derived from the Tang Dynasty Taoism in the Taoist temple sang the rhyme, for the poetry praise body. According to the "Introduction to chinese Taoist Art", Zhejiang Daoqing has a long history, since the Song Dynasty moved south, Wulin became the capital of the Southern Song Dynasty, people who did not want to submit to the rule of the Jin people fled south, and the Daoqing drum words that came out not long ago settled in the southern country with the footprints of these people. As a national intangible cultural heritage project with a thousand-year history, Jinhua Daoqing has been sung by the attention of the cultural and tourism departments and the efforts of many artists, influencing generations of people, and has now become a mobile cultural landscape of rural cultural auditoriums.
At the end of April last year, Zhu Yuewen participated in the five-day "Study Party History, Sing Taoist Sentiments, and Feel the Gratitude of the Party" Jinhua Quyi Inheritors Research and Training Activity and the Fifth Jinhua Daoist Forum. During this period, nearly 30 trainees used Taoism to sing 5 red songs adapted by Zhou Mingqi, vice chairman of the Zhejiang Qu Artists Association and expert on the protection of intangible cultural heritage in Zhejiang Province. "I grew up listening to my father's sentiments, singing classic red songs with my feelings, which is particularly kind and meaningful." Zhu Yuewen said, "After that training, I started to open the Jinhua Daoqing Primary Training Course in the urban area with the encouragement of my father, and officially opened on June 19 last year, with 1 class per week and 10 lessons per session, and now the fourth training class is being held." ”
At the same time, Zhu Yuewen also set up jinhua Daoqing "Zhu Yuewen (Master) Guangnan Middle School Studio" in Jinhua Guangnan Middle School, teaching students of Guangnan Middle School once a week. "Whenever I face the students' curious eyes, I can't help but think of myself." Zhu Yuewen introduced that at the age of 13, he began to sing Taoist love with his father, and at the age of 19, during the rebellious period of youth, he chose to go out to work, so he and Daoqing "parted ways". At that time, he went to Shanghai to do fabric business, and returned to Yiwu after staying in Shanghai for more than ten years. A few years ago, I liked to sing, and when I performed on stage, I actually performed on the same stage as my father's apprentice. Watching them sing Taoist sentiments, there are so many villagers who like to listen, and gradually understand that this is because of the emotional resonance generated by the nostalgia of the countryside. Therefore, Zhu Yuewen returned to his hometown of Jindong District, took over his father's mantle, and embarked on the road of Taoist inheritance again.
"Jinhua ham incense spraying / Double Dragon scenery is resounding / Dongyang wood carving craft is good / Hengdian culture is incredible / Yongkang ancient called Lizhou City / Hardware capital is famous / green mountains and green water beautiful homeland / natural oxygen bar out of Pan'an ..." A Song Jinhua Sentiment "Jinhua is a good place" let the reporter feel the green water and green mountains of Jinhua, the charming scenery and the cultural feast on the land of Bawu.
Zhu Yuewen said: "'Jinhua is a good place' was created by me in the first half of 2019, singing the local scenery, celebrities and specialties of Jinhua with Taoist sentiments, which is easy to understand and unforgettable after listening, which is a work that I am more satisfied with, and my father also feels refreshed after listening to it. ”
In November 2021, Zhu Yuewen also opened a tea house called Poyang Shutang in Zhu Town, Lingxia, Jindong District, and whenever the market was held in the third, sixth and ninth towns of the lunar calendar, the Poyang Shutang was opened for free, and he sang the sentiments for the local people together with his father and students (recently suspended due to the impact of the new crown pneumonia epidemic). "Daoqing is a rural sound, and I have loved to listen to it since I was a child, and I am deeply inspired to serve the local people in this way." Zhu Yuewen said: In the lively singing, the music of the countryside, the narration of nostalgia, and the relief of nostalgia are endless.
Zhu Yuewen's father, Zhu Shungen, has been engaged in Taoist performances since childhood. Zhu Shungen, 81 years old this year, told reporters: "I have been singing Taoist love since I was 15 years old, and the more I sing, the more I want to sing, the more energetic I sing, and singing Taoist love is the happiest thing." "As a representative inheritor of national intangible cultural heritage, he has the responsibility and obligation to inherit the Jinhua Taoist sentiments." He believes that inheritance is a must, and innovation is also in line with the requirements of the times. Now, his apprentices have set up their own bookstores, and he will go to the venues.
Zhu Yuewen is well aware of the gap between himself and his father, and he is also well aware of the responsibility and mission he shoulders. "In the past few years, I have been taking students with my father because we live in the countryside, but many people in the urban area also want to learn Taoism, so last year we started to open Taoist teaching points in the urban area." Zhu Yuewen said, "My idea is very simple, since I have embarked on this road, I must do my best to pass on the Taoist sentiments and carry them forward." ”
