Learning depends on respecting teachers.

-Excerpted from He Huimin's "Worship Mr. Qin Feng as a Teacher".

? Text/Lohan

For the China opera art, which has been passed down from generation to generation by oral instruction, being a teacher in Liyuan is not only a tradition, but also a piety to the drama and a worship to the master. Apprenticeship is a ceremony, a traditional virtue in the field of drama, and one of the ways for drama teachers to inherit. Throughout the ages, the success of famous masters and apprentices has repeatedly proved that this is a feasible way to a higher artistic realm.

? 65438+1At noon on October 28th, the award ceremony for outstanding young actor He Huimin and Shaanxi Opera actor Mr. Dou was held in Lanzhou. At the ceremony, teachers bowed, offered tea, made speeches and gave gifts to each other in the traditional way. Kong Guiling, a national first-class actor and disciple, He Xuehe, a famous scholar in the northwest, Dou, a national first-class actor and plum blossom award winner, and outstanding young actors such as Senior Two, Song, Lei Xiaojun, Xu Sheng and Chaohualan were present to congratulate and sing. Mr Dou and his disciple He Huimin also sang their best aria, which made the ceremony very wonderful. Chairpersons of drama associations, drama critics, senior fans and media friends from all cities in the province witnessed the ceremony, which played an important role in Gansu drama circle and had far-reaching influence.

As a witness, on the one hand, I think it is wise for He Huimin to choose Dou as his teacher, which is a piety and respect for the art of Dou School and a higher pursuit for the art of Shaanxi Opera.

? Dou, known as "Golden Voice" and "golden phoenix" of Shaanxi Opera, is a national first-class actor, winner of the 14th Plum Blossom Award for Chinese Drama, a famous Shaanxi Opera performer and the fifth batch of national intangible cultural heritage inheritors (Shaanxi Opera). Former deputy head of Gansu Shaanxi Opera Troupe and vice chairman of Gansu Dramatists Association; Director of Chinese Dramatists Association, member of Provincial Federation of Literary and Art Circles, enjoying special allowance from the State Council. She has sung countless classic plays. In the past 40 years, she has starred in more than 30 plays and successfully shaped more than 30 stage roles. She is a flag figure in Gansu opera world. Choosing Dou as a teacher means standing at the high point of the Dragon Opera, with a high starting point and high pursuit, plus personal talent and hard work, success is inevitable.

On the other hand, I think Mr. Dou's choice to accept He Huimin as an apprentice is also a striking choice. After careful screening and careful choice, I believe that Mr. Dou's choice must be correct.

He Huimin, a native of Longxi County, Gansu Province, once worked in Tsing Yi and Hua Dan. He has been engaged in drama performance for more than ten years, with a loud voice, solid foundation, dignified appearance and delicate performance, especially his singing and singing are infectious, which resembles Dou, a Shaanxi opera performance artist, and has created many unique stage images. She has played a major role in dozens of plays, such as Chopping Qin Ying, Three Mothers and Godsons, Wu Dianpo, Mi Mei Case, Four Holy Books, Foal of Fire, Dou E's Injustice and Yu Tang Chun, which fully demonstrated her singing strength. He won the third place in the annual finals of the big stage column of Gansu TV Station, the outstanding performance award of CCTV's "Addiction" and the star award of Shaanxi-Gansu Opera Fan Competition. He was rated as an outstanding singer in Northwest China (Tulip Festival) by CCTV, and one of the top ten China opera talents in anhui tv's Meet Flowers Theatre on June 20. In 2006 and 2008, Gansu TV Station "Grand Stage" was a special guest actor.

He Huimin's consideration before joining the teaching profession is also prudent. In addition to her personal experience, I'm afraid she also consulted her husband, Li Feng, a famous bearded actor in Gansu Qinqiang Opera Theatre, and her trusted friends in the theater industry. After careful consideration, she realized that Dou's Shaanxi opera is elegant, the typhoon is steady, beautiful and quiet, and the singing is loud and euphemistic. In the performance art of Shaanxi Opera, she used her superb vocal cords and emotional performance skills, and at the same time, considering her personal voice conditions and vocal position, He Huimin is most suitable for singing and filming. Also, Dou Qinfeng has a wide range of plays, and his acting skills are very good, and many excellent plays have been passed down and learned. I can really learn more with her.

? Learning from the teacher, from the moment I finished the teacher's worship, I determined the status of master and apprentice. Master has the responsibility to teach his disciples well and pass on his lifelong artistic experience to them without reservation. It is an apprentice's bounden duty to respect Master and study her true biography wholeheartedly. The purpose of worshipping teachers is to learn art, and He Huimin worships Dou as a teacher, which shows He Huimin's persistence and higher pursuit of art, and also shows her confidence in going down this road firmly. We expect her to grow sturdily and climb the artistic peak again under the cultivation of teacher Dou.

?

After teacher Dou retired, her life still centered on the art of Shaanxi Opera, which was inseparable from the stage and audience. She is still performing non-stop, filming, being a judge, sending plays to the countryside, and rushing around the urban and rural areas of Longshang and even the northwest. As an artist born and raised in Gansu, she is grateful for drama and this hot land of Gansu. She is practicing the responsibility and responsibility of an artist with actions. Dou knows that the inheritance and development of drama can't stop at propaganda slogans. The cultivation of drama talents is the most important thing, and it is also the obligation and social responsibility of drama artists. Therefore, she attaches great importance to accepting apprentices and taking students. After finishing the performance, she has received more than 10 apprentices. Through her example, many of her disciples have emerged on the stage of drama and become the main force of various academies.

The inheritance of traditional operas in China is mainly based on genre, because genre reflects the artistic achievements and performance experience created by predecessors. The form of accepting disciples can not only inherit and protect the characteristics of schools, but also cultivate and exercise the growth of young actors, which is an effective way to carry forward the art of traditional Chinese opera. Dou has made unremitting efforts to inherit and develop the art of "Dou School". He Huimin, an outstanding young actor, chose this road, which is undoubtedly a successful road to a bigger and more brilliant art stage.

I hope to see more such ceremonies. It is hoped that there will be pear orchards of various schools in Gansu opera circles. It is hoped that artists with both ability and political integrity will spread the ancient traditional art from generation to generation by accepting apprentices and spreading peaches and plums all over the world.
