Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, our party has attached great importance to inheriting and carrying forward the excellent traditional Chinese culture. This time, the Accounting Student Association's practice group went to the Yongjia Kun Opera Troupe (one of the eight major Kun Opera troupes in my country) located in Yongjia County, Wenzhou City, and had the honor to experience the charm of Kun Opera in person.
Imitation of opera and singing, appreciating the beauty of Kun Opera for the first time
Under the careful guidance of teacher Sun Yonghui, the practice group understood and studied the female role movements of "pointing", "standing on tiptoes" and "looking at makeup". The wrists need to be flexibly switched and the pace needs to change back and forth. Teacher Sun Yonghui can complete the movements that are particularly clumsy for us, but he can do it smoothly, with a bit of the delicate and shy feeling of a little girl who "looks at makeup". A few seemingly simple daily actions, but teachers have been practicing them repeatedly and pondering over them for years or even decades. At the same time, we also studied the play "Ode to Red Plum Blossoms" specially compiled by the Yongjia Kunqu Opera Troupe last year to celebrate the centenary of the founding of the Communist Party of China. The soft and long tone contrasted with Sister Jiang's unyielding heroic temperament in the lyrics, giving us an unparalleled and wonderful experience. .
In addition, Wu Sheng teacher Liu Ke showed the opening scene of "The Eleventh Man" to the practice group. He wore a water-sleeved robe and carried a three-foot long stick. He read the words and adjusted the rhythm. His steps were flexible and vivid, and the breast tiger roared in the valley. , all the beasts were frightened. The two students were very interested in this and studied seriously from the teacher, with some success. Teacher Liu Ke then taught us the standing T-step and mountain arms. These movements may seem simple but they have hidden secrets. It is difficult to stick to the standard posture for ten seconds.
Kun Opera practitioners who have worked hard for ten years and devoted themselves to the art
The practice group conducted an exclusive interview with Mr. Liu Ke, a short-player martial artist, and Mr. Sun Yonghui, a male actor.
As a short-fight martial artist who needs to be proficient in various martial arts movements, our interview team was very curious about what made Teacher Liu Ke choose this industry, and the answer given by Teacher Liu Ke was: love. Because of my love, from the age of 6 to 33, a full 27 years, I dedicated myself to this industry. Because of love, I insist on practicing every day no matter how hard and tiring it is. Because of my love, I will continue to learn and improve in the future, and pass on and carry forward Kun Opera.
Teacher Sun Yonghui mentioned in the interview that the Yongjia Kunqu Opera Troupe had a difficult time developing in the early days. The troupe was able to develop only after it became well-known across the country with the performance of " Zhang Xie Zhuangyuan ". There are currently 36 people in the troupe, but there is still a shortage of manpower. The good news is that the troupe has admitted 34 people in 2020. They are now studying at Zhejiang University of the Arts and will become the troupe's right-hand assistants in the future. Teacher Sun believes that the troupe will continue to develop and expand in the future, reaching the country and the world.
Through this experience, we fully appreciated the special charm of Kun Opera, an intangible cultural heritage . The road to inheriting traditional culture is long and arduous, and we still need to study hard and pass it on with heart.
