Recently, an old mezzo-soprano singer Guan Mucun took the stage again and collaborated with popular stars such as Karen Mok and Jiang Xin to perform classic repertoire. As one of the top mezzo-soprano in the mainland music scene, Mr. Guan Mucun's life experience is extremely bumpy. How did she break through the obstacles of life and finally bloom gorgeously? Let's step into her music world and enjoy the beauty of this prosperous world.
The mezzo-soprano's hard road
The mezzo-soprano, known as the "singing idiot" in ancient times, is a rare and profound art. Their voices are not as delicate and soft, cheerful and bright as the sopranos, but they are calm and introverted, thick and powerful, singing the taste of the world and the breath of the earth.
This innate talent is destined to make the living space of mezzo-soprano singers narrower than that of ordinary singers. Teacher Guan Mucun is an outstanding representative of this kind of "one in a million", and her life path can be called "one in a million" hardship.
Born in a poor family, ill-fated
In 1951, Guan Mucun was born in an ordinary family in Xinxiang, Henan. Although their mother's love for music was passed on to her daughter, they were never able to receive formal musical training from poor families. Guan Mucun can only rely on some songs passed down by his mother to lay the foundation.
Fate seems to be particularly harsh on this girl. Her father died when she was a child, and she and her mother depended on each other. After graduating from high school, she worked as an ordinary worker in a steel file factory, and gradually drifted away from her dream of being an artist. In this way, Guan Mucun stayed there for 7 years.
The turning point came to be discovered by the pioneers
In 1977, a chance finally revealed the light of this buried "diamond". At that time, the Oriental Song and Dance Troupe and the Tianjin Song and Dance Theater successively threw olive branches to Guan Mucun to open the door to art for her.
It stands to reason that with the fame of the Oriental Song and Dance Troupe, it was the best choice at that time. However, considering that he is a native of Tianjin, Guan Mucun chose the nearest Tianjin Song and Dance Theater. In this way, she transformed from an ordinary worker to a professional singer.
The singing touches people's hearts, and the cause is gradually emerging
In the theater, a colleague named Shi Guangnan first discovered Guan Mucun's strength. He asked her to try to sing the phrase "Sing with a tambourine and sing", and the magnetic voice instantly amazed everyone present.
Since then, Guan Mucun's acting career has been on track. With her unique alto charm and indomitable tenacity, she soon became well-known in the mainland and even overseas resounding concerts, and was known as the "alto queen".
Love has experienced ups and downs
Unfortunately, career success does not lead to happiness in personal life. In the 80s of the 20th century, Guan Mucun married film and television actor Wang Xingjun. The two met and fell in love, and each other thought they had found a soulmate.
Who knew that after marriage, Wang Xingjun began to be jealous of Guan Mucun's achievements and fame far above him. As a wife, Guan Mucun paid more attention to his career and neglected to take care of his family, which caused the rift in this marriage to become wider and wider, and finally ended in divorce. After the separation, she took her son to Beijing alone to study.
Fans become confidants and are reborn hand in hand
In the difficult days when Guan Mucun was raising children independently, a die-hard fan named Jiang Hong broke into her life. Initially, Jiang Hong just wanted to invite idols to attend an event. After seeing Guan Mucun's downtrodden situation, his heart was instantly touched by what happened to his idol.
So, Jiang Hong decided to put down his career and stay by Guan Mucun's side wholeheartedly to provide her with all-round care. He told his friend: "It is my honor to be an assistant to Guan Mucun. In this way, a once loyal fan turned out to be Guan Mucun's lifelong confidant.
Regain confidence and fight again in the art world
With Jiang Hong's help, Guan Mucun finally got out of the haze and regained his enthusiasm for his career and confidence in life. She put more attention to her music career, and because of this, she became more and more popular all over the country.
To this day, Guan Mucun, who is past his prime, is still one of the brightest alto stars in the music scene. Her cooperation with young idols such as Karen Mok and Jiang Xin continues to refresh the public's impression of her - a master with extraordinary temperament, who is infecting a new generation of musicians with her unfading strength.
An epiphany that never withers
Mr. Guan Mucun's life can be described as tortuous and bumpy. From being abandoned to being pioneered, from the peak of her career to emotional abandonment, and then to returning to the stage and radiant, she used her tenacity and strength to write a "short-lived" life legend.
It is this kind of hard work that makes Mr. Guan's singing full of bits and pieces of life. Every time she sings sincerely and high-pitched on stage, it is as if she has captured the whole world. This kind of courage and core is probably difficult for the younger generation of singers to achieve.
Finally, I would like to offer my most sincere greetings and blessings to Mr. Guan. May your artistic path go farther and farther, never stop, never wither!
