In 2015, we lost a talented singer, Yao Beina. At only 33 years old, she died of cancer at an untimely age, which made countless people's hearts ache. Her death was a huge blow to her parents, who chose to donate her cornea by signing an organ donation consent form before she died. It's a consolation for parents who want a part of their daughter to continue to exist in a different form. Yao Beina's departure left her family and fans with deep sadness and endless regret.
Yao Beina, a female pop singer in Chinese mainland, graduated from the Singing Department of China Conservatory of Music.
The path to growth
Yao Beina, a talented girl from Wuhan, Hubei Province, grew up in a family full of artistic atmosphere, and her parents were masters in the field of music, which had a profound influence on her artistic path.
As early as 1990, Yao Beina, who was only 9 years old, made her public debut. Standing on the stage, although she is young, she is full of confidence and fearless with a microphone. Her performance was not only a complete success, but also made the parents sitting in the audience feel extremely proud.
Subsequently, Yao Beina's fame quickly spread among the children's art circle. Not only has she been frequently invited to record musical compositions, but she has also shone in various children's singing competitions and won many awards. Yao Beina's singing strength is so outstanding that almost all other child stars can only compete for the runner-up.
Academically, Yao Beina also excelled and never worried her parents. In 2000, with the artistic influence of her family and the careful guidance of teachers, she was successfully admitted to the China Conservatory of Music and became a student of Ma Qiuhua and Dong Hua.
Ma Qiuhua, a graduate of Nanjing University of the Arts, has not only won numerous awards in singing competitions, but is also committed to vocal teaching. Her teaching methods are flexible, advocating adapting teaching strategies to the individuality of her students, and she often stresses that "everyone's singing voice should be unique, and never become an imitator".
It was under Ma Qiuhua's guidance that Yao Beina was able to further develop her popular singing style. The teacher's encouragement was like a shot in the arm for her, allowing her to focus more on sharpening her skills in popular music while learning ethnic vocal music.
In her third year of college, Yao Beina even went to South Korea to perform, and her gripping singing won thunderous applause in a foreign country.
With the end of her college career, Yao Beina has become famous, and after graduation, her music career has officially embarked on a rapid development track.
A musical journey
As soon as Yao Beina graduated, she ushered in an important turning point in her career. In 2005, she received an invitation to participate in China's first large-scale musical "Golden Sands", because the director felt that Yao Beina was naturally suitable to play the role of "Jin" in the play. She accepted the opportunity without hesitation. In the play, Yao Beina easily navigated some high-pitched areas that are difficult for ordinary people to reach, and her performance significantly increased her popularity among the public.
Then, in 2006, Yao Beina won the runner-up in the National Young Singer Competition, and although her performance was excellent, she was not complacent, but humbly summed up her experience and prepared for the next challenge. In 2007, her hard work paid off, she was invited to the Spring Festival Gala for the first time, and sang "Beautiful Legend" with Sha Baoliang, which greatly increased her popularity.
Yao Beina was not satisfied with her previous results and was determined to compete for the championship again in the 13th Youth Song Competition. Her singing "Sun and Moon Volley" won unanimous praise from the judges and won the championship with a perfect score. This victory earned her the opportunity to release a solo album. As soon as her debut album "Too Late" was released, it quickly occupied the top of the major music charts.
By the time she was 29 years old, Yao Beina had appeared on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala twice, and participated in singing the theme song and ending song of the popular TV series "The Legend of Zhen Huan". In 2013, he participated in the competition of "The Voice of China Season 2" and was the top eight in the country. Despite these remarkable achievements, she was not satisfied and was determined to continue her pursuit of higher artistic achievements. However, life is always full of unpredictable uncertainties, and although Yao Beina's future is full of hope, it will inevitably face challenges and uncertainties.
Illness and death
In 2011, Yao Beina felt that her body was showing some unusual symptoms, so she decided to go to the hospital for a check-up. After detailed diagnosis by several hospitals, a heart-wrenching news finally came. In Beijing, she resolutely called her parents in her hometown and told them the shocking news. This sudden bad news was undoubtedly a huge blow to Yao Feng and his wife, who were so grief-stricken that they couldn't stop crying, and they couldn't even accept this cruel reality for a while. Uncontrollable emotions led them to buy a plane ticket overnight to rush to Beijing, and when they arrived at the hospital the next day, Yao Beina had already been admitted to the operating room.
Fortunately, Yao Beina has always maintained an optimistic and strong attitude, which has had a positive impact on her treatment. After successfully surviving the surgery and treatment, her body gradually recovered, and she regained her musical career. Comforted by their daughter's recovery, the parents returned to Shenzhen to continue their work.
In June 2014, the situation deteriorated again when Yao Beina was diagnosed with cancer that had spread to her bones and liver. Although doctors and family strongly recommended that she undergo chemotherapy, Yao Beina decided to refuse, considering the physical devastation she had already experienced eight chemotherapy treatments. She knew that after starting chemotherapy, she might not be able to continue working and sing on stage.
So she underwent conservative treatment and chose to continue working. Even at the end of 2014, she had coughed up blood, but she still insisted on standing on the stage and touching every audience with her singing. Until January 16, 2015, Yao Beina passed away due to the aggravation of her condition.
Before her death, she signed an agreement with her father to donate corneas, reflecting her selfless desire to bring light to others even at the last moments of her life. For those who questioned why she continued to work despite her illness, Yao Beina once said: I can have no tomorrow, but I can't live for myself.
epilogue
Life is like a tune, both low and joyful. Yao Beina's music has become an eternal echo, accompanying us and inspiring us to understand the deep meaning of life. Her singing voice will flow endlessly in the years and live forever in people's hearts.
