Yan Lipin, the founder of the six famous Dan Yan sects of Yu opera, is a person with life energy, this is the deepest feeling I have about hosting the 100th anniversary of Yan Lipin's birth party, on the stage of a thousand delicate boudoir women, maybe everyone feels that there is no connection with the extremely strong life energy?
A woman born in the old society of son preference, the family was poor and had to go to study drama, but at that time it was a profession that was despised, born in 1921, in 1930, only 9 years old, she was sent by her mother to the Kaifeng Yicheng class, and worshiped the Xiangfu artists Yang Jinyu and Ma Shuangzhi to learn drama. At the beginning of the following year, Yan Lipin took the stage to perform her first play "Hitting the Golden Branch". Through 65 years of artistic life, there is always the euphemism of the Yan school in the grass pavilion song stage in the field; let China's highest art temple also have the subtle freshness of the Yan school; Mr. Yan Lipin, through his own stage practice, let every expression be appreciated by elegance and customs, let Qin Xuemei, Hu Fenglian, Cui Yingying, Yan Lanzhen... These names are forever engraved on the hearts of ordinary people.
Mr. Yan Lipin has never been married in his life, dedicated himself to the stage, no children, the birth of a hundred years old, her disciples, re-transmission disciples on the stage mentioned that she is still emotional and will shed tears, this love is not inferior to family affection, even more intense and long-lasting, these need is extremely strong energy density ah.
In Mr. Yan Lippin's artistic career, Master Mei Lanfang played an important role. Master Mei Lanfang praised Yan Lipin's "Luoyang Bridge" and "Female Virgin Flower" in 1953, and then invited her to Tianjin to see a play. In Tianjin, Yan Lipin observed Master Mei Lanfang's "Cosmic Front", "The Legend of the White Snake", "The Noble Concubine Drunk" and "The Phoenix Returns to the Nest", and listened to the master's teachings and benefited a lot. Her talent and hard work touched Mr. Mei Lanfang and she was accepted as an apprentice.
Yan Pai is exquisite, because Mr. learned a lot of the strengths of Peking Opera, "learn art first, establish art first establish character", Mr. left a good story of art morality, she became famous and set rules for herself: do not sing hall meetings, do not sing powder opera, clean self-love, these artists who have deeply affected the opera industry, really can be called virtue and art. As one of the most representative Danxing performance artists of contemporary Yu opera, Mr. Yan Lipin has won the love of countless audiences with his clean and self-righteous, noble and flawless life and pure and extraordinary artistic achievements.
The reason why Mr. Yan Lipin can achieve such achievements is inseparable from her mind of "picking the essence of a hundred flowers and brewing her own sweetness", and in Mr. Yan's eyes, there is no portal view at all, as long as it is suitable for me. For the development of yu opera career, she boldly proposed to her disciples: The art of opera can only develop if it is better than the teacher, and it should come to the fore, and the generation is stronger than the next. Her disciples, under the nourishment and care of the spring wind and rain of her mentor, all stood in a mainstay posture, supporting the splendid Yan Pai art, continuing the passing on of the torch of Yu opera.
I previously hosted "Wulin Feng", and "Pear Garden Spring" on a floor office, watching young colleagues on the opera like a fascination with the look of puzzled, last night when the lights came on, the appearance is handsome and exquisite, the plot is fascinating, I instantly and the fans of the play heart, know the reason for the fans of the longer love and loyalty, this is the charm of the opera art ah.
I wish that the art of opera will enter the hearts of more ordinary people, and I wish that the art of Yan Pai will be carried forward.
