My son remembers that he died
According to media reports, Chen Xieyang, the eldest son and conductor of Chen Dieyi, just returned to Shanghai from overseas tour a few days ago. After hearing the news of his father's death, he told the media that he was "discussing with his family in Hong Kong to take care of his father's affairs" and had set off for Hong Kong. Chen Xieyang recalled that the last time he saw his father was in June this year, at the "Stars Shine in the East" party held by Oriental TV to celebrate the 1th anniversary of Hong Kong's return. "At that time, I found that my father's body was not as good as before, he couldn't eat much, and his words were less, and his actions were not very neat. People's color was much worse." Chen Xieyang said: "Although Dad missed his centenary by a few days, he died a natural death."
Chen Xieyang, 68, is a national first-class conductor. He is the music director and chief conductor of Shanghai Symphony Orchestra, the vice chairman of Shanghai Musicians Association and the director of China Musicians Association. Music director of Shanghai Symphony Orchestra. In 25, Chen Xieyang recalled that when he was 12 years old, his father "abandoned his weak mother and left without saying goodbye." The father and son have been isolated from each other for 26 years. Later, Chen Xieyang found out about his father and sent him a letter. Four years later, Chen Xieyang went to Hong Kong for the first time, and his father met him at the airport. "I called my father and he was very happy. My father is not a very qualified father, but he is a very talented scholar. " Chen Xieyang said. In 22, "Concert of Chen Dieyi's Works" was held in Macau, and Chen Xieyang was the conductor at that time.
Daughter recalls that he was a real generation of gifted scholars
Chen Dieyi was originally named Chen Yuandong, a native of Wujin, Changzhou, Jiangsu Province. At the age of 15, he became an intern in the then Shanghai News. Daughter Chen Lixing said, "He was too young at that time, and everyone called him' brother', so the name Butterfly Clothes was actually a homonym." In 1941, Chen Dieyi was invited by Ping Jinya (Tang Bo of Ping Xintao, Qiong Yao's husband) to establish a well-known magazine Vientiane and became the editor-in-chief. During this period, Chen Dieyi also used many pseudonyms. "One of them was particularly impressed that Shanghai became an island during the Anti-Japanese War, and his father's pen name was' Chen Diyi', which means to wash away foreigners and express his patriotic thoughts." Chen Lixing said. When her daughter was 16 years old, Chen Dieyi sent her to join the army. Before she left, he gave her a pen with the words "Mulan joined the army" written on it. "I have been taking this pen to the front and have been to North Korea, and I still cherish it."
In the 193s and 194s, Chen Dieyi was already well-known in Shanghai literary and art circles. He wrote "tears of lovers", "Shangri-La", "Mother's Heart" and other "pop songs" which won the popularity of Zhou Xuan. After liberation, Chen Dieyi moved to Hong Kong and lost contact with several children in the Mainland. For this reason, Chen Xieyang broke off his father-son relationship for 26 years. It was not until 1978 that he resumed contact with mainland children. In 22, many musicians joined hands to hold a "Chen Dieyi Concert" in Macau, and Chen Lixing also attended. At the end of the concert, 94-year-old Chen Dieyi and 63-year-old Chen Xieyang embraced each other with warm applause from the audience. Chen Lixing, who was sitting under the stage, also shed tears excitedly. "My father is a generation of talented people. He lived to be 1 years old and kept writing. I am proud to have such a father. "
Singers reminisce about the elegance of "alley minor"
Fang Qiong, an associate professor of Shanghai Conservatory of Music and director of the national vocal music teaching and research section of the vocal music department, still expressed deep sorrow over the death of Mr. Chen Dieyi when he received a phone call from a reporter. Fang Qiong said that he called the director of the symphony orchestra some time ago and planned to hold a solo concert for Mr. Chen Dieyi on his 1th birthday. "I didn't expect it to be gone so soon.".
In p>21, Chen Dieyi's son, Chen Xieyang, approached Fang Qiong and asked Fang Qiong and Cai Qin to perform a special performance of his father's Chen Dieyi's works. "That was the first time I met Chen Lao. Since we rehearsed, he listened to him every time and followed the beat. Although he was over 9 years old at that time, he was in good health and had a clear thinking in conversation." Fang Qiong said that at that time, two concerts were held in Macau, accompanied by symphonies. At the second concert, Mr. Chen Dieyi came to the stage and said, "I am very happy today. I used to write about the lives of ordinary people, and the tunes that came out of the alleys. Today, my thing, which was once called' decadent voice', can even be elegant."
Pay tribute to the younger generation
Singing for 7 years is the highest honor for the creator
Chen Zhe (a famous lyricist, whose masterpiece is The Same Song)
His works are truly full of humanistic vitality. In contrast, our generation of pop song creators are really lacking in humanistic spirit. Over the past few decades, our works have been more about serving something than being pure. His Feng Huang Yu Fei, A Late Bell in Nanping and Tears of Lovers can still be covered, which is very telling. This shows that their stuff is a real China pop song. I can't even guarantee that my songs will be sung decades later.
The works of their generation didn't have much hype. They recorded China people's voices in the form of pop music at that time, and after such a long period of changes in the times and society, they can still be popular, which shows that the vitality of the humanities in the works is extremely strong, which can't be done by any princes or "obedient literature and art". Seventy years later, some people are still singing his songs. I think this is the highest honor for a pop music creator. Our generation goes to the stage to receive the prize easily, and even really feels what they are. In the face of such predecessors, we really have to think about it.
His lyrics are beautiful and romantic
Fang Qiong (a famous singer who published singing girl and other old Shanghai music albums)
Die Lao is a very important representative of the old songs in the 193s. His lyrics are actually very beautiful and romantic, basically praising the feelings of parents, children and lovers, without empty slogans and passions, and they are all the truth, goodness and beauty of ordinary people. However, as he himself mentioned, one of the keys to changing from a "reporter" to a "poet" is the song "Constant Heart" by Li Juanqing, a senior poet. Many of Die Lao's songs also allude to the social state at that time. He is a "mandarin duck and butterfly school" literati, so his expression mode is different from that of Lu Xun.
In addition, I think his lyrics have reached a certain standard in terms of artistic beauty and true feelings, so he has stood the test of time and is still popular after more than half a century. When it comes to the current lyrics, it may be the needs of the times or the needs of the market. They all lack an understanding of life and seem to be eager for quick success.
Chen Dieyi wrote three poems
Nanping Night Bell
I hurried into the forest, and it was a dress
I couldn't find his whereabouts, but I saw the tree swaying
I hurried into the forest, and it was a dress
I couldn't find his whereabouts, but I heard the Nanping Bell
Nanping Night Bell
It seemed to urge me to send it with the wind. I saw the sunset red again
Lover's tears
Why should I shed tears for you? Don't you understand that it's for love
Only the lover's tears are the most precious, and all the tears are love
If there is a lover who wants to part with me, my tears won't fall.
Good spring is always in full bloom in spring, how can you be willing to say goodbye?
I am looking through autumn water in my boudoir. Don't forget that my feelings are deep. Yingying's voice is charming and spring scenery reports to the world again
I am smiling with eyes full of love again.
It floats lightly like Feng Huang Yu Fei in the clouds.
Like Feng Huang Yu Fei in the clouds and Feng Huang Yu Fei in the clouds.
Yingying's voice is charming and spring scenery reports to the world again.
I am smiling with eyes full of love again.
Like Feng Huang Yu Fei in the clouds, it is as carefree as Feng Huang Yu Fei in the clouds. Separation is not as good as amphibious treasure this beautiful night
Separation is not as good as amphibious treasure this youth
Don't let the streamer down, don't let the streamer down
Learn from Feng Huang Yu Fei and Feng Huang Yu Fei in the sky
Feng Huang Yu Fei.
