Behind the scenes | of power generation, brilliant with love "and the women pursue" (last) ~

Do not know if you have such experience: wake up in the morning, habitually open WeChat look. For me, for nearly a month, every morning the people who are refresh are always the same groups, and the ones who talk are always the same. Sometimes I wonder if we're not in the same time zone (which is not always true) : What, don't they sleep?

I was one of them and was deeply affected. The world is so big, if you have ever been touched by a power like I have, then you can also find the strength to move forward when you think of them in dark moments.

HongYan (ji sunseeker) | "producers"

#Miss Hong in girlhood#

I was fond of singing when I was a child. When I was in the third grade, my parents took me to the Hangzhou Children's Palace Choir. At that time, I remembered that there were wonderful stills of members participating in the opera "Carmen" on the wall of the classroom, which made me very envious.
I knew then that I loved the stage and wanted it. Looking back now, the happiest thing when I was a child was to participate in various performances with the choir, go to the Children's Palace canteen to have a delicious dinner, go to the very beautiful theater, singing on the high stage. Soon, when I was in the sixth grade, I heard that Hangzhou Middle School Students' Song and Dance Troupe was recruiting students, so I was admitted to the chorus of the troupe. At that time, there were classes in school on Saturday morning, so it became the happiest time for me to sing in the middle school students' song and dance troupe on Saturday afternoon.

The stage of the Chorus is wider, with chorus, dance troupe and band, more excellent students and more interesting performances. These times on stage have made me more and more confident and happy. I have the impression that I never ask for leave. I always insist on the weekly rehearsals and winter and summer training. It is more like love than persistence, and this love has never faded. So after graduating from high school, it was logical to take an examination of music major.

#Mr. Hong, who graduated from university#

After graduation, I had always longed for a stage, but suddenly I changed my role and became the promoter of creating a stage for others. It's been that way since graduation. So later I quit my job and set up Hangzhou Philharmonic Angel Chorus, Hangzhou Philharmonic Female Indoor Chorus and art school, all in order to lay a stage for more children who have music dreams and pursue music to grow up.

We hope to graft the best teachers for children, the best platform, let children in music learning less detours. Maybe we have not achieved my ideal state, but we have been working hard. Every year, there are a lot of children who love music and life, and a large number of excellent musical talents have been cultivated. Many children have made a mark in different fields of music.

After the outbreak of | beginner's mind

During the epidemic, we were not intimidated by the cruelty of reality. Since we could not attend classes, we should practice the basic skills of teachers, conduct teaching research and grinding classes, carry out online concerts, do what we could, think and summarize more, and look forward to the future.

The idea of Hisaishi and Hayao Miyazaki's chorus concert and works were sought and formed at this stage. In the back, a wonderful thing happened, I saw the capable director Tang back to Hangzhou, Mr. Zhou and Tang said: "this concert you will help us to do better, OK?"

Thought it was a joke, said on said. Because a lot of people basically just smile to deal with it, and then there is no then, or at the beginning of things, will first ask for details such as compensation, but did not think of Xiao Tang really seriously began to plan. I didn't talk about it at all. I just talked about doing the concert well, and then it went to a different stage.

Has been constrained by the theater, we will in hangzhou grand theater - yue liang seasons theatre (an open-air sunken theatre) open a called "the provisions of the world - long stone & hayao miyazaki classical chorus concert" performance, in the choir at the beginning of 21 years of birth, meal to a different stage and a new start.

However, because the lighting, sound, stage design, LED screen and other expenses required for the outdoor theater stage would be very expensive, far beyond the budget of an ordinary concert hall, so I struggled for a long time on what to do and what not to do. The latter is because of the words of Xiao Tang, "the choir has been 20 years, there should be some changes and some promotion."

#And the famous conductor Wu Lingfen teacher#

#Mr. Hong is instructing the students#

#Be a teacher in guizhou#

It has always been my long-cherished wish to create a different stage for the children. After a painful choice and the friendly support of our veteran mother Amber, we finally allocated the start-up funds and started this concert in the extremely difficult budget after the epidemic. With the progress of the plan, various difficulties came one after another. However, Tang, the shining little sun, attracted many volunteers to join the project, and the whole team was also positive and constantly solving various problems. National Day training every day in the wonderful song shuttle, each program is gradually improving, all kinds of excellent dancers, musicians are also constantly joining. Singers from all over the world are also joining......

Li Kaidi | special guests dance performances

Graduate students in New York City development in a few years after graduation, I as a dancer on times square New Year's party, the United Nations, the Lincoln Center, the metropolitan museum of art, such as stage, as an actor off-broadway plays the main role play musical film lucky enough to get some awards, business is just starting stage, just as I was ready to work hard march to Broadway, The epidemic happened, Broadway closed... Overnight, the art industry seemed to disappear. For five and a half months in New York, I had to stay indoors to fight the epidemic. In the days when I saw no hope, it was art that supported my spiritual world. During this period, I had time to think about what I really love and cherish my relationship with art more.

After coming back to China, I had been away from the stage for several months, which made me a little unsure of myself when I faced it again. I had complicated feelings towards the stage, perhaps because I was "afraid of being close to home". That feeling included longing, cherishing, alienation, confusion and awe.

I feel that the fire in my heart has returned after I came into contact with the concert activity of "World's Agreements", and I am very happy to have the opportunity to participate in it. I hope I can do my best to cooperate with musicians in such a loving art gathering, and I also hope that my art work can help me find my spiritual coordinates faster.

The epidemic has driven us apart, but we need art more than ever.

The "Fate" with the Concert

Received the invitation to the concert is accidental, director, happened to see a picture of me to dance, to my invitation, time tight task, time distance of the reason, we may be only one or two rehearsal opportunities, so the next day, at the end of the last job I across the city came to the studio, and cooperation of the performer walked rough scheduling, after good task allocation, To prepare for the performance separately, a lot of communication may need to be carried out online, such as rehearsals, costumes, positioning, coordination, etc., all need to be run in online for a long distance.

However, I believe that all the professionals can complete this performance. I am looking forward to the concert on 18th :-)

#Katie's poem#

Director liu | vision

I still remember when I was in high school, I formed an animation club on a whim and participated in the cosplay performance of the school's New Year's party. Fourteen years ago, in a third-tier city high school, it was an unprecedented stage performance. As the opening act, the audience was shocked. Because of such a chance coincidence, I led the club to participate in various performances and competitions in college. Since then, I have forged a close relationship with stage performing arts.

However, as a show creator, he is more enthusiastic behind the scenes than in front of the stage. Eight years after graduation, she has been working behind the scenes in the performing arts industry. In the middle of the experience of family do not understand, they do not understand the industry, also do not understand the charm of performance. Until one year, the whole family watched the CCTV Spring Festival Gala together in front of the TV. I excitedly told them that the stage multimedia of the show was done by me, and they finally could understand what I had been insisting on.

In my opinion, stage art, as an important part of live visual presentation, provides a time and space environment for performance, and is no longer limited to a theater scene under light.

With the rapid development of the digital age of information, the traditional performing arts industry is gradually using digital multimedia technology to achieve more refreshing artistic effects. The stage design is based on the content of the program and the conception of the director. The stage presentation can not only render the atmosphere, but also sublimate the theme and connotation of the performance.

And I always insist on using different design styles and techniques to present the best visual effect on stage. Stage vision connects the stage and the stage, causing empathy, which is a joint exploration of the unknown by the creator and the audience.

All smiles send us light | "special piano performer to"

In the first grade, I was selected to join the Philharmonic Angel Chorus and had the honor to learn from the leader of the choir, Ms. Hong Yan (Ji Xi).
From then on, I found myself enjoying discussing music with others. In a large classroom, dozens of people were trying to fit together for the same song. Under the guidance of Mr. Hong and Mr. Zhou Weiping, I opened the door to music. I began to understand what emotions should be used to express different harmonies and what singing methods should be used for different parts. Here, I have mastered the most important knowledge of music theory, I have the first stage performance experience, I was moved by music for the first time, I most look forward to entering the Philharmonic Angel once a week, in this beautiful atmosphere to spend the weekend.
What was more surprising was that, in addition to singing in chorus, I was constantly encouraged in the process of learning solo with Mr. Hong, and became more confident in music. So at the suggestion of Mr. Hong, I began to learn piano after one and a half years of studying in the Philharmonic Angel. So four years later, I entered the primary school attached to the Central Conservatory of Music and then the middle school attached to it. Now she is studying at the Juilliard School of Music in the United States.
Because of the epidemic, I often have to attend online classes until 3:00 or 4:00 in the morning, write papers and practice the piano, and often go to Shanghai to rehearse an ensemble with my classmates, and Tianjin to rehearse a trio and perform. The recital on the eleventh must also be prepared intensively.

Despite the busy schedule, I couldn't miss the Philharmonic's concert, because this is where my musical career started.

"Looking back, in the summer vacation of 18, I determined the life I want to pursue. In 19, I began to stop caring about others' eyes and really devote myself to what I love. I realized that greed, laziness and vanity existed in my body, and I tried to restrain them to give way to self-discipline, positivity and optimism.

Quiet down to meditate on their own position, had to sigh that this does not deserve the happiness. Without the unconditional support of my family, teachers and friends, I would not have trusted myself as much as I do now."

Listen to the beauty of art
Concert "Chaser Girls" (I) /

This is the 21st year of our birth

After heavy rain and wind, but also left regret
But in the stars, in the earth, there is something even brighter
About music, the unchanging love
With our respective majors, we can achieve more children's music dreams

It is said that this concert is fully funded by Hangzhou Philharmonic Angel Chorus Hong Yan (Ji Xi) and Philharmonic brand friend "Baopure Time", relying on early bird box office crowd-funding. For the best performance, all the staff are dedicated, all the performers have no money, behind the scenes friends and volunteers are also free to contribute.

Also as a brand operator, I know that this is not just "power by love", but "power by pure love". The average person might not be so stupid.

But isn't that exactly what we need in today's world of doubt, opposition, and fear? Let's call up the good old days with music.
