"Roses and oranges, orange yellow, angrily placed in the streets and alleys of the city, like the pulsating morning glow, gently wiping the face of the city..." On the afternoon of January 15, the famous soprano singer and "model of the times" Zhen Enfeng sang a melodious song for the sanitation workers on the banks of the Xi'an moat in the cold winter. For more than 20 consecutive years, she has volunteered to sing for the grassroots masses during the Spring Festival, and this year, the 81-year-old Zhen Enfeng also did not "break the appointment".
Spontaneously using songs to send the warmest New Year's wishes to the grassroots masses - "singing for the people", in the eyes of Yan Enfeng, "it is a matter bigger than the sky". Zhen Enfeng told reporters that the stage of the masses is the most important and cordial stage in his heart, "As long as I am here, I will sing a good song to everyone." "On the same day, I heard that Teacher Zhen was going to come to sing to everyone, and the sanitation workers who were not in the class nearby came together. Although there are not many people because of epidemic prevention reasons, it is still difficult to hide the excitement and joy on the faces behind the masks, "When I was a child, I heard the songs of Teacher Zhen Enfeng, "Shandan DanHua Blossoms Red and Colorful", and I did not expect that today Teacher Zhen Enfeng came to us to sing face to face and make people happy. ”
On that day, Zhen Enfeng not only sang "Fragrant Yellow Roses" for the sanitation workers, but also taught them to sing word by word. This song also has a special significance for Zhen Enfeng herself - "Fragrant Yellow Rose" is a song co-written by Zhen Enfeng and sun Shao, who is also a famous artist, and the famous poet Dang Yong'an during the epidemic last year, and specially sent to the frontline sanitation workers in the city. In the past, every cold winter month, Zhen Enfeng and Sun Shao always helped each other to enter factories and mines, go to enterprises, go to schools, and go to the countryside... Volunteer singing for the masses, sending blessings and passing on positive energy with songs, last summer, Sun Shao died of illness, and "Fragrant Yellow Roses" became the last work of the old man before he died. Ms. Yunfeng said that her wife must also hope that this year's New Year, this song can be sung to sanitation workers. "This song is our New Year gift to everyone, you have worked hard day and night for the city!" Before singing, Zhen Enfeng said affectionately to the sanitation workers.
"Orange and orange, the fragrance of the four seasons, writing the beauty and civilization on the window of the times..." Zhen Enfeng sang loudly, the sanitation workers hummed quietly, and the singers listened to the music and harmony, singing lively and lively. Sanitation worker Wang Guoping said: "There are such famous artists who write songs and sing songs for our sanitation workers, and everyone's hearts are particularly warm, and I hope that Teacher Zhen will take care of his body and sing more beautiful songs for us." ”
For more than 60 years, Zhen Enfeng has insisted that "where there are masses, there is a stage." "Leave your own song among the people." In 2015, the Central Propaganda Department awarded Yun Enfeng the honorary title of "Model of the Times". (Text/Xi'an Newspaper All-Media Reporter Sun Huan Photo/Reporter Shang Hongtao)
