<h1>In my mind, the king loves love and loves love</h1>
<h1>Chang Qizhao</h1>
1960 was my first year in pear orchards. I love opera, and since then, I have had the privilege of swaying in the ocean of Jin opera art, bathed in the splendor and fragrance of the big pear garden.
In the early 1960s, Teacher Wang Ai'ai released the first record of "In April, the South Wind Blows Mai Er Huang". At that time, like the fans who loved the "love cavity", I was fascinated by her pure voice and was attracted by her beautiful voice cavity. Since then, Wang Ai'ai has become an idol in my heart.
Empress Wang of Jin opera loves love
"In April, the South Wind Blows Mai Er Huang" is a very beautiful classic singing segment. Charming sound rhyme, pure taste, exquisite and exquisite vocal cavity makes people intoxicated.
The beautiful "love cavity" does not know how many fans have been dumped, and I do not know how many Jin opera fans have been attracted. This record, once released, attracted great attention from Fans of Jin Opera. People praised, people applauded, people called her the sound of nature, the charm of Jin. Since then, Teacher Wang Ai'ai has become famous. With the continuous advent of famous songs and dramas such as "People Say That Shanxi Has Good Scenery", "Fenhe River Water Rushing Lala", "Three Upper Peach Peaks", and "Ode to Longjiang", her singing voice and her reputation have resounded throughout the land of the Three Jins, and the reputation of Jin, Hebei, Shaanxi and Mongolia has been full of fame.
On June 22, 1980, I began to cooperate with Wang Ai'ai, a teacher I had admired for a long time. Since then, he has formed an indissoluble relationship with Teacher Wang's "love cavity". At that time, the drummer for her was the Jin opera generation drum king Chen Jinyuan teacher, the famous violinist Zhang Buxing teacher for her to play the piano, my wood (梆子). I remember that the repertoire that was often performed at that time was "Counting Grain?" Dengdian Temple】【Ming Gongjue】【Jinshui Bridge】 and other traditional repertoire. These plays are all the best plays of Teacher Wang Ai'ai, and they are also the favorite traditional plays of Jin opera audiences. Teacher Wang Ai'ai's wonderful singing and the heartfelt accompaniment of colleagues in the Jin Theater's Wenwu Field can be described as a combination of pearls, which can be called a classic of contemporary Jin opera. So that every performance caused a sensation. To this day, when I think about it, the beautiful singing voice is still evocative, and the wonderful accompaniment is still exciting. How many years have passed, in retrospect, is still unforgettable.
Shanxi Jin Theater Martial Arts (1983)
I remember that people commented on Wang Ai'ai's singing: "This is the most exquisite art, this is the most intoxicating spiritual enjoyment, this is the most beautiful Zizi cavity, this is the most beautiful natural sound." Of course, as an accompanist on the stage and a participant in the classic interpretation of the stage, the feelings are incomprehensible to others. On the stage, the accompanying musicians and performers are the closest, and we are the "special audience" who appreciates Teacher Wang's performances the most times.
Teacher Wang Ai'ai's singing style and vocal cavity characteristics, from the use of skills to the sculpting of rhymes, meticulous and delicate. It fully reflects her unique understanding of the art of the sound cavity of Jin opera and her serious attitude towards art. Her line cavity best embodies the characteristics of the word is round, the taste is beautiful, and the retraction is free. She applies the scientific vocal method to the art of Jin opera singing, which reflects her solid foundation and extraordinary achievements in the art of Jin opera vocal cavity, which can really be described as a master of opera art.
Teacher Wang Ai'ai's singing art is not only well-known in the three Jins, but also fascinated by Jin opera lovers in Shaanxi, Inner Mongolia and Hebei. I remember the scene when I was in Yunnan to comfort the troops participating in the battle on the laoshan front. Officers and men of the unit come from all over the country, and although the languages are different and the appreciation habits are different, teacher Wang Ai'ai's singing has aroused strong repercussions from the officers and men at the frontline. Her unique style of singing and vocal rhyme clearly gave every word and every word to every soldier under the stage, so that the officers and men of the army understood the beautiful melody of the art of Jin opera from her superb singing, and understood the deep affection of the people of Shanxi to the soldiers. This feature is rare in local dramas, and it is also the biggest feature of love and love.
Teacher Wang Ai'ai's vocal cavity art has a unique style and characteristics. Her performance, singing, body, confession, and physical movements are all extremely exquisite. Her performance is dignified and steady, her body movements are elegant and atmospheric; she has unique vocal conditions; she has a high degree of understanding and modesty and studious spirit; she is good at absorbing the strengths of all; she is good at using scientific vocal methods; she has excellent singing skills and skills. She has obtained the true inheritance of cheng yuying and Niu Guiying, so in the long-term artistic practice, she has formed a unique and wonderful "love cavity", which is known as the "queen of Jin opera" and has become a generation of Jin opera masters and Jin opera art masters. Teacher Wang Ai'ai is not limited to the music design of the composers, the same Jin opera board style, whether it is a tablet, splint, two sexes, or flowing water, rolling white; no matter which composer designs the singing cavity, after she creates it again, once exported, it is always higher than the creator's idea, unexpected by the singer-in-law designer, this is the characteristic of "love love cavity", which is the charm of love cavity. "Love love cavity" represents the highest achievement of the Qingyi vocal cavity of Jin opera.
In Shanxi, there is a widely circulated passage, "A song "The Water of the Fenhe River Is Rushing", singing the north and south of the great river, inside and outside the Great Wall; a board of "In April, the South Wind Blows Mai Er Huang", which is full of praise and fame." My colleague, Liu Shuyue (Monkey Monkey Monkey), a teacher who plays a gong at the Jin Theater in Shanxi Province, has the most down-to-earth sentence: "Since 1960, I have listened to Wang Ai'ai's singing on stage, and I have heard that now that I retired in 2010, I have never listened to the vulgar, listened to tired, and listened enough..." I think this is not only Liu Shuyue's experience alone, he represents the voice of many fans and fans of "love and love"!
I remember that in 1989, the big names of major drama genres in the country performed on the same stage at the Taiyuan Changfeng Theater, and Teacher Wang Aiai, Peking Opera artists Hong Xuefei, Li Weikang, Peking Opera clown artist Zhu Shihui, Yue opera artist Mao Weitao and other big names gathered together to perform together. Teacher Wang arranged to sing in the last one. She sang a passage from "Wang Baojun Left the Cold Kiln to Think For Himself" in "Counting Grain". When the announcer reported the three words "Wang Ai'ai", the thunderous applause and shouts of the whole audience were unending. This applause expresses the weight of Teacher Wang Ai'ai in the hearts of the audience, and shows people's love and appreciation for "love and love cavity". At the same time, it also makes our wenwuchang accompanists feel extremely proud and honored. The list goes on and on.
Teacher Wang Ai'ai is highly moral and highly respected by people. I remember once performing in Niangziguan, Yangquan City, Teacher Wang sprained her foot when she performed on stage, and she was supposed to recuperate at home, but in order to meet the audience's requirements, she let people carry her on a stretcher to the stage and sit in a wheelchair to sing to the people. This scene touched the audience and touched the cast and crew of the whole troupe. She deserves to be a well-deserved people's artist, and she is an artistic master with both virtue and art. In my opinion, the treasure of the Town Courtyard of the Jin Theater in Shanxi Province in the 1940s was Ding Guoxian. The treasure of the town courtyard after the 1970s is of course Wang Ai'ai!
Teacher Wang is bright and upright, honest, truth-seeking and pragmatic, and has a clear distinction between love and hate, which is an example for us to learn forever. The essence of her art and the beauty of her vocal cavity. The art is so high that no one can stand out.
In her decades of stage career, she has created many brilliant artistic images on the stage, which are respected and praised by people. She is an outstanding Jin opera performance artist. I remember people in the industry saying such things, if it were not for Wang Ai'ai's "south wind blowing in April", "The fenhe river is rushing", "people say that Shanxi has good scenery", shanxi zizi is difficult to let colleagues and experts in the national literary and art circles recognize.
Teacher Wang Ai'ai is a landmark artist in the history of jin opera development. She is an outstanding inheritor of the intangible cultural heritage of Jin opera. Her art and her stage achievements have had a profound impact on the prosperity and development and inheritance of Jin opera art. She has many disciples, and all of them are excellent, and many of them are the backbone of today's Jin opera stage. Jin opera "love love cavity" will be carried forward, and the traditional Art of Jin opera will be more brilliant.
Finally, I wish the "love cavity" to carry forward. May Wang Ai'ai teacher always maintain her artistic youth and choose her to make new contributions to the cause of Jin opera! May she smile and be happy and healthy!
