Together with the Changsha Symphony Orchestra in my hometown again

"Music can become a bridge for the development of the east -west culture, and the musician, as an important medium in the spiritual world, naturally takes this heavy responsibility." Tan Dun, who adheres to this idea, has a deep relationship with Dongyi. In 2013, Tan Dunbang brought the Shanghai Symphony Orchestra, the domestic first starring symphony poem "Female Book"; in 2019, the famous conductor Yinik Nichegoson Lee the Philadelphia Symphony Orchestra and the famous singer Lei Jia, the world premiere Tan Dun The vocal concerto "Nine Color Deer"; in 2019, Tan Dun and the Lyon National Orchestra in France and the German Lubak Chorus Institute premiered in Shanghai "Dunhuang · Compassion"; in 2021, Tan Dun led the Changsha Symphony Orchestra to perform multimedia in Dongyi Symphony concert "Martial Arts Trilogy".

One year apart, Tan Dun will bring the Changsha Symphony Orchestra again into Dongyi. As the only large -scale professional symphony orchestra in Hunan Province, the Changsha Symphony Orchestra has a history of more than 20 years. Tan Dun was born in Changsha, Hunan. He is currently the honorary art director and commander of the Lifetime of the Changsha Symphony Orchestra. The cooperation between the two is very tacit. In Tan Dun's view, cooperating with his hometown to perform Chinese music is undoubtedly the best partner.

Create "The Glory of the King" to create "The Five Le of the Dunhuang"

Like "Dunhuang · Compassion", which was performed in 2019, "The Five Music Gods of Dunhuang", which was unveiled in the new performance season, will also be the premiere of Shanghai. Speaking of the significance of coming to Dongyi again to play "The Voice of Dunhuang", Tan Dun said frankly: "Dunhuang murals record more than 4,000 instruments, more than 3,000 music tricks, and more than 500 ancient bands. I moved me. Dunhuang was the activation stone of ancient Chinese art. I want to turn these murals into music, play with the symphony orchestra, and bring to the world. The most important thing is to have a spiritual platform and belief bridge."

Interestingly, "The Five Music Gods of Dunhuang" is a symphony creation created by Tan Dun for the popular game "Glory of the King". It uses the five historical figures in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms as the prototype, and portrayed the heroic character image through the different sounds and performance skills of five ancient Dunhuang instruments. Tan Dun expresses Zhao Yun's "benevolent" through the vicissitudes of Qinqin, the empty manner of the Elyshadow shows Guan Yu's "righteousness", the high -pitched performance of Zhang Fei, Sheng's soft expression of Huang Zhong's "loyalty", the sense of rhythm of pipa Expressing Ma Chao's "prestige".

"The music of" The Five Music Gods of Dunhuang "symbolizes a world of sound spanning for thousands of years. It is also a profound sound practice, with a long and deep ethnic history long river." Tan Dun said, "I hope these five instruments institutes承载的内容如金木水火土一般，展现一个深邃宽阔的世界，一种厚重玲珑的情怀，就像敦煌壁画一样。”音乐会将通过大荧幕投放穿越的动漫影像，与交响乐动态的节奏和The combination of melody reproduces the historic hero and the Dunhuang instrument that has been forgotten in the past, showing the spiritual temperament and legendary story of the three kingdoms and five tigers.

"Women's Book" continues the historical heritage of women's culture

The female book originated in Jiangyong County, Hunan, and is the only female text found in the world. In order to write down her story, local women created this kind of text based on the weaving embroidery pattern. Mutations are now on the verge of loss. Tan Dun's "Women's Book" created by Tan Dun, aiming to continue the historical heritage of women's culture. The most innovative is that "Women's Book" uses "Music 3D" and "Time and Space 3D" as its main creative concept to build the three -dimensional space of art: the time and space between film and television, the opposition between music and film and television, and The pair of ancient women's books and the voice of the future.

Micro -film symphony poem "Women's Book", the main content of thirteen movements with storytelling around 13 female books: the first sequence is preface; Story; the fifth paragraph depicts the ancient village views of the female book village; the sixth, seventh, and eighth paragraphs tell the story between sisters; Missing; the last thirteenth paragraph is "living in dreams" -the freehand work that melts the reality of dreams on one side of the "pond water drum".

From a musician to a film producer, Tan Dun said: "The 13 films in" Book of Women "were filmed by my own mirror, and I composed for these films and became one! The movie represents the past, the past exists in In the image; the band represents the future, and the future is presented on the stage; the harp is the most feminine musical instrument. It is a bridge that connects the past and the future. " It is impossible. Through the five -year -old field collection, from the creation of shooting, collection, conception, and brewing music and the structure of audiovisual images, Tan Dun has personally devoted himself to this work that can preach the history of Chinese culture.

Tan Dun also revealed: "I have always wanted to create the‘ Yinhe Trilogy ’, connecting the“ Maps ”and“ Female Books ”, as well as the cities, instruments, and traditions that disappeared on the Silk Road to build a‘ sound map ’.”
