On December 9th, produced by iQIYI and titled by Jian Nanchun, the first original panoramic humanistic exploration program in China focused on Dunhuang, "Debut! The fourth issue of Dunhuang is here as scheduled! In the new program, with the full help of internationally renowned musician Tan Dun, the mainland folk band Wild Child Band and Dunhuang music lovers, electronic music is perfectly integrated with traditional music, and a shocking desert music show is used to let the audience hear the "natural Sanskrit sound" belonging to Dunhuang.
Looking for "Tianlai Sanskrit sound" in the cave, pipa into Mogao Cave mural instrument absolute "C bit"
In the murals of the Dunhuang Mogao Grottoes, it is really difficult not to pay attention to the pipa. Wherever there is music and dance in painting, there will be a lute. In the 735 caves of the Mogao Caves alone, there are more than 700 vivid lutes of various types. Avoiding this lute, another lute comes into view, which can be described as "invincible". This time, the Dunhuang Exploration Group Wang Han, THE9-Xie Keyin, Qian Zhenghao, and Li Haoyuan started a "cave exploration" journey to find Dunhuang ancient music together with Zhu Xiaofeng, the post-80s "i Dunhuang".
The images of musical instruments in the Dunhuang murals are of great significance to the study of the history of Chinese and world music. The Dunhuang Research Institute has been working to restore dunhuang mural instruments, and a number of the latest imitation instruments are displayed in the exhibition center. The Dunhuang Exploration Group got a close encounter with the latest replica of Dunhuang ancient musical instruments here. Dunhuang music lover Liu Qingyao, holding a delicate pipa, played a melodious pipa song for the Dunhuang Exploration Group.
Qian Zhenghao visited Tan Dun, and the village style was introduced to the street
The famous composer and conductor Tan Dun spent 6 years creating the musical work "Dunhuang Ode to Mercy" that tells the story of Dunhuang murals. The advent of this work also fulfilled the wish of Fan Jinshi, former president of the Dunhuang Research Institute, to "turn murals into sounds and bring them to the world". In Tan Dun's view, the Dunhuang murals bring people not only a river of sound, not just a color of technology, it can be solid, gas, liquid forms, and more importantly, he also "heard" electronic music.
In the music section, it is undoubtedly the home of the little prince of music, Qian Zhenghao. If Tan Dun gave Qian Zhenghao the inspiration of electronic music, northwest folk musician Zhang Gayi gave him creative inspiration that was close to the life of the northwest people and grounded. The people of the northwest are simple and frank and enthusiastic, and Qian Zhenghao was praised by the northwest aunt who met for the first time: "How is this child so cute!" Even the scene wanted to introduce him to the object, such a scene made the shy Hao Hao a little helpless.
Together, the two delve into the lives of the people of the Northwest and find the voice they want in the daily trivialities. In the words of Zhang Gayi: "When these laborers sing folk songs, they always have a simple smile on their faces. Folk songs pass through this land and then reach our hearts, but in fact he is singing with God (love). ”
High-quality content presentation has gained good word of mouth, and the charm of Dunhuang culture "Do you know"
From exploring the cave to feel the natural sound of the silent murals to experiencing the beautiful timbre of ancient musical instruments, from the musician Tan Dun's "Ode to Mercy" to the source of sound from the lives of the people in the northwest, the Dunhuang Exploration Group and the Wild Children Band have worked together to re-adapt the song "Do You Know" full of nostalgia in the long desert of Dunhuang, reproducing the beautiful melody of ancient Dunhuang.
From ingenuity, flying, amusement, to music, "Debut! "Dunhuang" has made Dunhuang culture presented in the public eye in various forms, and won the good reputation of the audience. Douban score of 8.4 and Zhihu score of 8.9 are the recognition of the program by the majority of audiences. At the same time, "It's here! "Dunhuang" has also appeared on major lists, such as iQiyi platform variety show related lists, Douban domestic hit variety show list, etc., and the continuous domination of the list has also made Dunhuang culture well known to more young people.
"It's here! "Dunhuang" uses immersive experience and panoramic presentation to let more audiences feel the charm of Dunhuang culture, and truly planted the seeds of falling in love with Dunhuang into everyone's heart. (Liu Zan)
