On the occasion of the Dragon Boat Festival holiday, the original Chinese style music program "National Style Super Drama" launched by the China Central Radio and Television Station's Cultural Program Center was broadcast on cctv-1. The program revolves around the outstanding Chinese virtues of "benevolence, justice, etiquette, wisdom and trust". Through the diverse forms of digital + art, tradition + technology, a live band is invited to complete the drama and create a new sound of traditional and modern national style. In Zhao Cong’s view, the highly inclusive and excellent traditional Chinese culture is “the foundation of contemporary Chinese literature and art and a treasure of literary and artistic innovation.” For this reason, in recent years, a large number of opera works that combine classic opera arias with folk music and pop music have become popular among young people. This has long become one of the most recognizable features of national style music.
Take the first issue of "Guofeng Super Opera" "Mountains and Flowing Water" as an example. The program takes friendship as a theme that has flowed through the long river of traditional culture and history for thousands of years. It invited famous opera master Xiao Xiangyu, music producer Lao Zai and cultural scholars. Yang Yu and the main station host Nigmaiti formed a "circle of friends" with Chinese style super drama, which also brought together the young generation of Chinese style musicians such as Li Sidani, Jing Lu, Si Si and Fan, and Hua Tong. The times and opera are blessed together, and national style music has a new sound.
Deeply rooted in cultural background: Analyzing the cultural core from national music
Is there a model for "mountain and flowing water" friendship? The program starts with Su Shi and Zhang Huaimin, two close friends who remain "the same as ever" after going through turmoil, and a Chinese-style musician co-creates a song "A Night Tour in Meng Chengtian Temple". The clean and clear voice brings the audience into a dreamlike picture, and the deep friendship of traveling together in the middle of the night rises in the immersive scene, becoming the first Chinese-style music single to be released on the show.
Immediately afterwards, the tacit partnership of "Bo Ya is good at drums and harp, and Zhong Ziqi is good at listening", Bo Ya resolutely breaks the strings of the qin and the strings are hard to find, the concern of "breaking off the remaining plum blossoms and sending a branch", Princess Taiping and Shangguan Wan'er's relationship. Cherish each other... The first episode of "National Style Super Drama" continues to analyze the cultural core of "Mountains and Flowing Waters", and extols the ancient and modern stories of friendship in Chinese style music.
The profound Chinese culture is the creative source and soul of national style music. The simple splicing of Chinese elements and popular music cannot be called national style music. To be meaningful in words and have both form and spirit, we must work hard on the understanding and expression of culture. Tian Qing, honorary director of the Music Research Institute of the China Academy of Arts and musicologist, said that "National Style Super Opera" adheres to the position of Chinese culture, digs deeply into the connotation of excellent culture, and leads the creation of national style music with rich themes. The vivid and appropriate interpretation injects cultural momentum into the performance, and combined with the stage design and stage presentation with a strong cultural flavor, allows the audience to experience the cultural beauty and artistic conception of the national style and trend in a pure and unique visual experience.
"I have seen that so many young people have deep feelings and deep understanding of traditional culture. They are rooted in traditional culture and use their imagination and creativity."
expressed in the dialogue: Evoking emotional resonance in inheritance and innovation
"Having been engaged in opera promotion work for many years, I believe that there are two types of people in the world, one is people who like opera, and the other is people who don't know they like opera yet." Similar words will be published in "Guofeng Chao" The famous opera masters Wang Peiyu and He Saifei of "Youxi" have said it on different occasions, and the show's chief director Dong Yi has also said it.The same concept brings them together, hoping to continuously innovate forms on the basis of retaining the original essence of traditional opera, and "translate" the beauty of traditional opera to young people through the carrier of national style music.
To this end, the program uses "dialogue" as a bridge and invites cross-border Chinese style musicians to serve as guides. Li Sidani has lived in Sichuan since she was a child, and drew inspiration for the creation of national style music from the poems and songs left by famous ancient masters in her hometown; Jing Long’s brave attempt to continue to make breakthroughs in national style music; Sisi Yufan used folk songs Adapt silk string nursery rhymes from Changde, Hunan; join hands with flower girls to wander in the popular Chinese style woven on the Internet... Chinese style musicians come to the show with love and responsibility, and explore innovative expressions of Chinese style music together. In the program, they sang the story of high mountains and flowing water, and in the process of co-creation, they found like-minded confidants and tacit understanding of partners.
The dialogue, interaction and co-creation process of Chaoyouxi's "circle of friends" fully reveal the creative process and life stories of Chinese style musicians, which is sincere and moving. As a result, the program has become a gathering for fans of traditional culture and Chinese style. Those who "do not yet know that they like opera" can see "audio paintings depicting characters without words" under the rearrangement of music and the genes of the times. "Articles write about ancient and modern times" and the charm of opera.
Integration in interaction: Exploring the infinite possibilities of national style through music creation and performance
In the current era of saturated music variety shows, it is the expectation of all walks of life to produce good works and new works. "National Style Super Drama" firmly grasps the "naughty nose" of creation. The mathematician "Guo Xiaofeng" serves as the title holder of each issue's "National Style Co-creation Theme", using novel and unique methods to open up different "co-creation themes". Create an experiment”. On the stage, Chinese-style musicians convey their own Chinese-style attitudes with different types and styles of Chinese-style music, breaking through themselves while also refreshing the audience's perception.
Li Sidani and Jing Lu's "The Endless Beauty" combines rap, Chinese style, opera, poetry and other elements to show the sympathy between Princess Taiping and Shangguan Wan'er; Si Si and Fan He's "Night Tour in Mengcheng Tian Temple" It uses antique lyrics combined with smart phonology and traditional opera singing to convey the clear and clear friendship between Su Shi and Zhang Huaimin, and convey the beautiful yearning for friendship. The different music styles, tough and passionate, gentle and quiet, just reflect the various forms of friendship, and also show the diverse interpretations of Chinese music on culture.

In this dual attribute, the young generation of musicians have a strong sense of cultural roots and a high-spirited cultural self-confidence, creating a larger circle of friends both on and off the screen. Yin Xiaodong said: "The program is rooted in tradition, takes national style as its soul, and focuses on innovation.
