The 1,300-member joint military band was jointly established by three professional military bands of the People's Liberation Army, the Navy Military Band, and the Armed Police Military Band, and more than 900 grassroots front-line officers and men selected from the whole army through assessment.
As the 10th head of the PLA Military Band, Zhang Haifeng joined the army band in 1984 and completed thousands of major party and state celebrations and important diplomatic ceremonies in the past 37 years.
Zhang Haifeng, chief conductor of the Chinese People's Liberation Army Joint Military Band: From 1921 to 1949, 28 years, a party so young, liberated all of China, and experienced 72 years of glory, this kind of national glory is simply unique in the world. As a party member and a soldier, it is really glorious that our music represents our country, our nation, our party, and our army.
Huang Yanhui, the 11th head of the PLA Military Band, had just received the baton from Zhang Haifeng at the end of last year and was given the task of forming the PLA Joint Military Band at the meeting to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party of China. As an experienced veteran of the military band, Huang Yanhui has also performed many major celebration activities, but his first time as the leader of the group, he felt pressure, and he has never returned home since the day the joint military band was formed.
Huang Yanhui, director of the Chinese People's Liberation Army Joint Military Band: This year is also a challenge for us. Time is tight, the task is heavy, the standard is high, and the requirements are strict. This time, we must not only organize a thousand-person joint military band to complete the ceremonial performance task of the conference, but also cooperate with the choir, a choir of 3,000 people, to complete the task of warming music.
Standing between Huang Yanhui and Zhang Haifeng is Yu Hai, who is a member of the 3,000-member choir's expert group. The 66-year-old Yu Hai also has a status, the 8th leader of the People's Liberation Army Military Band. In preparation for the celebration of the centenary of the party, the three leaders of the Platon Army Military Band re-sounded the rallying cry.
Yu Hai, member of the choir expert group of the celebration conference: I am also very happy to see our young new generation today, these children are very cute, and our comrades-in-arms are also very worthy of my admiration. So in the centenary of the Party, what do we, as soldiers, use to give gifts to the Party? We ourselves have practiced our actions and done our part as an old party member and a veteran soldier, and I think it is particularly worthwhile.
