Centennial, golden bell. The 13th Golden Bell Awards for Chinese Music opened today (16) in Rong.
Guzheng player Wang Zhongshan
Wang Zhongshan, president of the Guzheng Society of the Chinese Music Association, is a famous guzheng player in China, and at the opening concert of the Golden Bell Award tonight (16th), he played "Noisy Lantern Festival", which integrates local opera materials such as Yu opera, Yue tune and opera, imitating the melody with a rough and unrestrained melody, and cooperating with the Symphony Orchestra to vividly express the noisy and festive atmosphere of the Lantern Festival. Speaking of the recent phenomenon of "Chinese music fever", Wang Zhongshan believes that guzheng is an ancient musical instrument, and it is a very good thing to use ancient instruments to express the style of the times, "Very serious guzheng art is presented in an entertaining way, and at the beginning it was difficult for me to accept. But then I slowly discovered that it is also very good to use ancient instruments to express contemporary style. Like in many film and television dramas, a lot of music played by guzheng, pipa and guqin is very well integrated. Wang Zhongshan said frankly, "I believe that with the continuous development of China and the deeper understanding of Chinese culture by young people, 'Guole fever' will not only become a temporary 'hot', but also a normal 'hot' in the future." ”
Golden Bell Award for Chinese Music
As the director of the jury of the Guzheng Group of the 13th Chinese Music Golden Bell Awards, Wang Zhongshan said: "At present, the two instruments set up by the Golden Bell Awards of Chinese Music, guzheng and erhu, are the most oriental, and the number of learners is also the largest. In particular, guzheng, which has a history of more than 2,000 years of development, has a large number of practitioners and a large number of students. Now that we have entered a new era, guzheng has also gained new life in the new era. We also hope that through the ancient instrument of the guzheng, the dialogue in a modern way can show an open and confident traditional Chinese music. ”
