When it comes to folk songs in northern Shaanxi, I think the first singer that everyone may think of is Ah Bao, or Wang Erni. Of course they all sang well. But if you really want to talk about the original, I think it is still necessary to count The Grace Phoenix.
Who is Eun Seol?
Many friends are actually not very familiar with this name. First of all, many people will not pronounce this "贠" word. The word 贠 has two pronunciations, one pronounced yuán, but when making a surname it is pronounced yùn. Xian Enfeng once sang too many popular folk songs in northern Shaanxi, such as "Shandan DanHua Blossoms Red and Colorful", "Five Brothers Herd sheep", "Turn over and say goodbye", "Song of Supporting the Army" and so on. We basically sing these songs, and we must have heard the version of Zhen Enfeng and praised it, but because the media will not promote much of Zhen Enfeng, more fans have a relatively limited understanding of Zhen Enfeng.
Today, Yaqing wants to tell you about the artistic life of the people's singer Yan Enfeng.
A native of Xi'an, Shaanxi, She was born in 1940 in Dacha, Xi'an. Like many famous singers, she has loved singing since she was a child, and God has given her a natural voice. And it is precisely because of this good voice that When she was 11 years old, She enfeng embarked on a completely different path from other classmates.
That year, she had just graduated from elementary school, and Yu Jingru, the leader of the Shaanxi Broadcasting Chinese Orchestra at the time, went to Yan Enfeng's school and said, "We want her." In this way, Zhen Enfeng went to work.
She was so young at that time, of course, everything could only be arranged by adults. The brothers and sisters in the group, let her sing and sing, let her record her, she recorded, and behaved very well-behaved - she has always been a good obedient child.
At that time, the conditions of radio stations were very limited, and even the recording equipment was not complete, so what should we do to broadcast literary and artistic programs? Then sing live. It was in the studio, a microphone was erected, and then the band and the singers gathered around and performed for the audience. And the regiment that Zhen Enfeng was in, all he had to do was to see the sky and sing into the microphone. This is a real live broadcast, no flaws are allowed, the requirements are very strict, but it is also very exercised. So soon, Zhen Enfeng grew up.
At first, She Enfeng sang entirely in her voice, and with her pure and sweet singing, a large number of listeners became her fans. Later, she began to consciously learn singing skills and applied these skills to practice, forming her own unique singing style. Later, many people said that when they listened to Zhen Enfeng singing, they knew it was her as soon as they heard it, why? Because it is highly recognizable.
Speaking of the origin of Zhen Enfeng and the folk songs of northern Shaanxi, it should start from 1953.
At that time, the organization arranged for her and Sun Shao to learn to sing northern Shaanxi folk songs to Bai Bingquan, a master of folk songs in northern Shaanxi who had starred in operas such as "Liu Hulan". From Bai Bingquan, Zhen Enfeng learned about the origin and characteristics of northern Shaanxi folk songs and felt the unique charm of northern Shaanxi folk songs. It was from this time that she fell in love with northern Shaanxi folk songs.
After this, Zhen Enfeng sang "Shandan Dan Blossoms Red and Bright" on a bigger stage, so that more audiences understood and liked the folk songs of northern Shaanxi, and at the same time, they also found happiness in life - she and Sun Shao were happily married and became husband and wife.
Zhen Enfeng is a real singer who has come out of the mountains, and her voice is clear and clean, like a mountain stream that does not contain any impurities. This kind of sound, because it has not been artificially modified, it seems particularly real and makes people feel very close. In 1958, with such a voice, Zhen Enfeng became a blockbuster at the first national quyi performance and won the recognition of more audiences.
Also in 1958, 18-year-old Zhen Enfeng met her 28-year-old sister Guo Lanying. As soon as Guo Lanying heard Yan Enfeng singing, he liked it very much and immediately stepped forward to express congratulations. At that time, Guo Lanying was already a big singer, which made Yan Enfeng feel flattered. He immediately expressed to Guo Lanying that he wanted to learn from her. Unexpectedly, Guo Lanying gladly agreed, hand-in-hand, passing on his experience and skills to this student and disciple without reservation. And she also invited music experts to give lectures to Yun Enfeng, so that Zhen Enfeng's profession has been rocket-like.
After that, She Enfeng sang folk songs from northern Shaanxi such as "Blue Flower Flower", "Driving Out Animal Spirits", and "Thirty Mile Shop" to too many countries and places, but she never forgot the words that her mentor Guo Lanying said to herself: Only the national is the world. Only with the audience in your heart, the audience will love you more.
Since about 1980, in order to carry forward the folk songs of northern Shaanxi, 40-year-old Zhen Enfeng has held a number of solo concerts in Xi'an, Shanghai, Beijing and other places. And the most touching thing is that every time she opens a concert day, the farmers in the fields, the workers on the factory floor and the citizens from all over the world will spontaneously come to the scene. Why? Because, as Guo Lanying said, you have the people in your heart, and the people will always support you.
Because of the success of the concert, more and more people know About Enfeng, including the famous singers Wang Kun and Wang Yuzhen, after hearing her singing, they also constantly praise her, praise her, think that her singing has affection, and is a real people singer who "serves the people".
From 1990 to the present, Every Spring Festival, She Enfeng will perform in schools, villages, factories, troops, homes for the elderly, and orphanages, and each performance does not charge a penny. Once she went to the mine to perform, and after singing a few songs in the well, she found that many workers working underground could not watch the performance, so she insisted on going down the well to sing for the workers. Another time after the performance, she found that there was a labor fee, she immediately donated the money, said: I am paid, singing is my job, I should not charge extra.
Because she has been participating in performances outside for many years, She Enfeng does not have much time to take care of her family, which leads to her son Sun Cong, who has a lot of opinions about her. Sun Cong said: My mother is always so enthusiastic about the audience, but she is very strict with me. I felt like she was more pro to the audience than to me.
But her old partner Sun Shao understood her choice very well. Over the years, the couple has basically been a woman and a husband, and no matter where She Enfeng goes to perform, her partner will always be Sun Shao, who carries the accordion. The two of them, one playing the piano and the other singing, are a perfect match. And wherever these two men went, they were on stage, such as in the aisles of trains, at bus stops, in the resting places of sanitation workers, and their singing could be heard everywhere.
For Zhen Enfeng, the happiest thing is that his singing can bring warmth and touch to more people, right? She said: Every time I perform, I sing with my heart to impress myself in order to impress others; I know that those applause cannot be exchanged for money, and money cannot buy the deep feelings of the masses. Therefore, what I insist on is to take root in the masses, take root in life, always be with the masses, and always sing with sincerity.
Today, Zhen Enfeng is 81 years old, and in 2018, due to a car accident, she caused a serious fracture and lay in a hospital bed for a long time, but she was broken. So, when her condition improved slightly, she immediately became active again, and as long as there was a performance, she was extremely happy. She said: What a happy thing to sing for the people for a lifetime.
