Kailian Pond and Kokura
Some people say that when they think of "Rolling The Barrel", they think of Henan opera, they think of Xiaocangwa, and they think of Hailianchi. It can be seen that "Rolling The Barrel" has become synonymous with opera, and the cute and kind Little Cangwa portrayed by the master of opera Hai Lianchi has long been engraved in the hearts of the audience.
Composer Zhu Chaolun once commented on Hai Lianchi: "If you talk about The performance of Teacher Hai Lianchi, it is better than the role of Xiao Cangwa he created. The little Cangwa portrayed by Teacher Hai not only has the humor of a clown, but also exudes the power of kindness and justice, which is why everyone likes this role. The Haipai art founded by Teacher Hai Lianchi is even more unique, and he and I are not a drama genre, but I hope that the descendants of Haipai can follow in the footsteps of Teacher Hai and create a new classic of opera. ”
About Hailianchi's singing voice and performance style
His voice is thick and loud, the range is wide, strong and charming, the words are clear, the pronunciation is accurate, the voice is rich, the voice is colorful, the performance is sincere, the arrogance is magnified, the simplicity is unpretentious, forming his own unique performing art - "Haipai" art.
Hai Lianchi is good at capturing the personality characteristics of the characters he plays in his performances, and combines the actions of life into the traditional opera performance program to make the characters come alive.
Excerpts from the classic lyrics of "RollIng The Barrel"
Xiao Cangwa I left Dengfeng Small County
I suffered from hunger along the way
The difference between the two solutions is like that bull's head horse noodles
As soon as he spoke to me, he turned that face back
Go!
On the way, I only complained about my sister-in-law
You hid over there when I was relieved for my brother
Little Brother Jin and Yunelle rarely see each other
Uncles and nephews can no longer play together
You can no longer watch tricks in the Yue Temple
You can no longer watch boxing in the Shaolin Temple
No longer can pick sour dates to put on the Song Mountain
You can no longer touch the crab to the Black Dragon Pond
Ask how far Luoyang is
Twenty miles!
Oh my mom!
In an instant, I entered the ghost door and closed it
I really don't want to rush any further
I can delay one more day
