"Crazy World"
The content is based on the historical story of the Southern Song Dynasty: according to legend, the descendants of the national hero Yue Fei and the traitor Qin Fu were a patriotic couple. Due to the grudges of their parents and the provocation of traitorous officials, they were suspicious of each other on the road of patriotism and intertwined with love and hatred. The music does not focus on the narration of the plot, but depicts the heart of the characters through the transformation of the situation and the ups and downs of emotions. The allegro part is the voice of loyalty to serve the country and the enemy bravely kills the enemy; the adagio and adagio parts not only express the voice of a couple who are worried about the country and the people, but also reveal the deep love for each other: "What is the purpose of serving the country with heart and soul?" Sin? When will ambition be paid?”.
"Don't Be Difficult"
Li Shangyin, a poet in the Tang Dynasty, once wrote many love poems "Untitled", and the composer He Zhanhao once selected four lines from one of them to compose a song: "When we meet, it is difficult to say goodbye. , the wax torch turns into ashes and tears begin to dry." And the three words "parting is also difficult" in the poem are used as the title of the song. Because of its beautiful melody and sincere affection, it is popular all over the country. However, due to the limitations of the genre of the song, He Zhanhao felt that his thoughts were not exhausted. In order to fully express the artistic conception of the poem, it was born on the basis of the song and developed into a large-scale erhu concerto. The various themes derived from the songs in the music meticulously depict the various inner feelings of a lover's parting that are difficult to express in words.
"Hero's Tears", also known as "Butterfly Loves Flowers"
"I lost my arrogance, Yang Jun lost the willow, and the willow rose lightly and rose to the top of the sky." Mao Zedong's poem "Butterfly Loves Flowers" not only expressed his grief for his wife who died under the enemy's butcher's knife, but also deeply touched the hearts of every Chinese. Heart. Twenty years later, another relative of Mao Zedong, his beloved son, died in the battle to defend the motherland, and he once again suffered great grief. The first theme of the music expresses Mao Zedong's grief for losing his son. The second theme and its variations and development show the scenes of heroic sons and daughters embarking on a journey to fight and sacrifice heroically against the enemy. Another loyal soul flew to the clouds in the nine heavens, and the music showed the artistic conception of "thousands of miles in the sky and dancing for the loyal soul". The sacrifices of many heroes and sons and daughters in the past have brought back the revitalization of China today.
"Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai"
Adapted from a well-known folk tale, based on tunes from Yue Opera. "Liang Zhu" describes the sincere love between Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai, and angrily accuses and flogs the feudal ethics, reflecting the people's anti-feudal thoughts and feelings and their deep sympathy for this love tragedy. The work selects three main plots from the story, "the grass bridge sworn", "the Yingtai resists the marriage" and "the butterfly in front of the grave", which shows dramatic contradictions and conflicts, and absorbs the rich expression techniques in Chinese opera to make it It has both symphony and national characteristics. The version performed this time is an excerpt from the Erhu Concerto version adapted by Mr. He Zhanhao.
