Composed in 1965, "Long March Suite" condenses the arduous course of the 25,000-mile Long March in the form of music, and skillfully integrates the folk tunes of various regions with the tunes of traditional songs of the Red Army. Over the past 50 years, it has performed more than 1,000 performances and has become a masterpiece in the history of Chinese choral singing, and has been selected as one of the classic works of Chinese music in the 20th century.
On the evening of May 24th, the famous conductor Tan Lihua will join hands with the Sichuan Symphony Orchestra, the Sichuan Symphony Orchestra Choir and the "OCT" Chengdu University Student Choir to re-stage this large-scale vocal suite "Long March Suite" at the Sichuan Grand Theatre. At the same time, it will also perform in Luding and many colleges and universities.

Red classics never fall behind
The Chengdu Symphony Orchestra has made rapid progress in recent years
Tan Lihua, known as the "Golden Finger" in the symphony music industry, will be the conductor of the symphony concert, and on May 21, Tan Lihua was also hired as the artistic consultant of the Sichuan Symphony Orchestra. With only three days to rehearse, Tan Lihua paid special attention to detail, "I ask for more detail, the pronunciation of each word, a word, bite words, emotions and emotions, are very important." What we need is for the audience to hear clearly what the work is trying to say. Tan Lihua said.
In Tan Lihua's view, although the overall professional symphony orchestra in Chengdu started relatively late, it has made very rapid progress and has become a good story in the industry and has won the attention of symphony musicians across the country. This also depends on the construction and construction of Chengdu Music Capital in recent years. In Tan Lihua's impression, the overall musical atmosphere in Chengdu was much more mature than what he had seen three years ago. "Before I heard that Chengdu wanted to build a music capital, I thought it was very difficult, but the changes that followed really shocked me, so many concert halls were built, first of all, in the hardware piece, it has been very successful."
The "Long March Suite Song" includes 10 parts, including "Farewell", "Breaking through the Blockade Line", "Zunyi Meeting Shines", "Four Crossings of The Red Water Surprise Soldiers", "Flying Over the River", "Crossing the Snowy Mountain Meadows", "To Wuqi Town", "Zhu Jie", "Annunciation" and "Assembly Division", depicting 10 interlocking scenes of combat life. This time re-arranged in Rong, Tan Lihua also mentioned that the most classic part will be retained. He believes that the red classics will never be left behind, and the enterprising spirit expressed in "Long March Songs" is worth learning from contemporary youth.

Will be going to Luding performance
Recreate the "Flying Capture of Luding Bridge" at the same time and in the same place
According to Mou Linghong, deputy director of the Sichuan Symphony Orchestra, "Long March Suite Song", as a blockbuster work in the outstanding repertoire exhibition season of Sichuan Province celebrating the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party of China, will also enter Sichuan universities in the next time to go to Sichuan prefecture-level cities and grass-roots points for 10 tours. Among them, there are not only electronic science and technology university, Xihua University, etc., but also Nanchong, Mianyang, Yibin and other places.
The most noteworthy thing is the performance in Luding on May 29. "In the history of the Long March, the footprints of Sichuan, especially the history of Luding Bridge, are very important." Mou Linghong introduced that the performance will be carried out at Luding Bridge on the same day, and the time of the performance will also be restored according to the time of the Luding Bridge incident, "We hope to return to the original intention with symphonic works immersively and sow the spirit of the Long March." ”
On May 29, 1935, the famous "Flying Capture of Luding Bridge" occurred on this day. The Red Army team ran for 240 miles day and night, and finally reached the west bank of Luding Bridge at about 6 a.m. on May 29. The commander of the 2nd Company and 22 commandos took the bridge with chains along the bullets and bullets and the chains of the wall of fire, and together with the troops on the east bank, they occupied the Luding Bridge.
As a classic that has been precipitated over the years, the live listening of each rehearsal performance is a valuable experience worth cherishing. Mu Linghong believes that this large chorus of 120 people will definitely bring us the surging power of the trembling heart at the scene. "We have reason to believe that the collision and fusion of mission, ideals and youth will surely inspire unparalleled passion and artistic appeal."
