Background:
Song of the Long March is a poem written by General Xiao Hua, former director of the General Political Department of the People's Liberation Army, with tears in his eyes during his serious illness. It was originally called the poem of the Long March.
At the time of the Long March, Xiao Hua 18 years old was a political commissar of the Communist Youth League. Xiao Hua described the legendary 25,000 Li Longda March in China's revolutionary history with his own personal experience.
This poem was composed by Chen Geng, Sheng Mao, Tang He and Qiu Yu, comrades-in-arms art troupe of Beijing Military Region, and rehearsed by comrades-in-arms song and dance troupe. After the assignment, the rehearsal of "Long March Songs" was carried out in the state of working overtime.
Yong Yang, commander of the Beijing Military Region, and Liao Hansheng, political commissar, personally took the lead in urging, while the director of the Political Department and the chief of staff sat at the rehearsal site. Luo Ruiqing and Yang Chengwu, the witnesses of the Long March, made a special trip to tell the actors the story of the Long March, asking them to rehearse quickly, and to be well organized and serious.
There is a big road map of the Red Army's Long March at the rehearsal site, and the red arrow marks the specific position of each song in the Long March. When rehearsing every song, the cast members should learn to read Memoirs of the Red Army to stimulate their feelings.
In the meantime, Premier Zhou Enlai visited the rehearsal site many times to cheer for everyone and put forward specific opinions on the rehearsal. The Long March Suite is divided into ten pieces.
Zhou Enlai pointed out: The first "Farewell" is about the heavy and helpless mood when the Red Army left the Central Soviet Area at that time, rather than the heroic and high-spirited appearance of the hero;
The sixth passage "Snow White" and "Officers and men share weal and woe, revolutionary ideals are higher than the sky" should be sung with heart to show the iron will of Red Army soldiers to overcome difficulties and hardships. On one occasion, Zhou Enlai came to the scene and sat in the last row to watch the rehearsal in order not to disturb everyone.
At the end of the rehearsal, the comrades found Zhou Enlai, which immediately caused a sensation. Zhou Enlai took a group photo with the actors on stage, pointing to his uncle Tang Jiang and humorously saying, "Your clothes are all wet. You are a master of ten songs. " .
Later, the comrades in the comrades-in-arms song and dance troupe all called the uncle "big master."
After nearly three months of overtime rehearsal, in July, 1965, the gay song and dance troupe performed in Tianjin People's Auditorium, which was reviewed by the lyricist Xiao Hua. After watching the performance, Xiao Hua said to the actors with tears: "I didn't expect you to interpret the Long March songs so touching, thank you!"
On August 1st Army Day, the Long March Ensemble premiered in Beijing National Culture Palace, and then performed in Tianjin, Shanghai, Nanjing, Taiyuan and other places.
When performing in Zhongnanhai, Ma Guoguang led the singer "The Raiders of the Four Crossing Chishui" and sang "The Battle of Mao Zedong is Like a God", Mao Zedong applauded and said that he sang smartly, lively, humorous and witty, and his gestures were amazing.
After singing, Mao Zedong asked Uncle Tang Jiang what was the name of the lead singer. Uncle said his name was Ma Guoguang. Mao Zedong said humorously, this is Guoguang Apple! Uncle said that Ma Guoguang also sang "How delightful". Mao Zedong said, I've heard of it, and she sings very well.
Zhou Enlai has a soft spot for Long March songs. Uncle recalled that Zhou Enlai watched "Long March Songs" 10 many times from rehearsal, review to public performance.
1June, 966, Zhou Enlai visited Eastern Europe and was named the Long March Choir to accompany him. The gay song and dance troupe organized 18 chorus members to follow up. In addition to the official performance at the literary reception, Zhou Enlai personally directed the cast members and the comrades of the embassy to sing "Long March Songs" several times. The passage "Crossing the Snow Mountain Grassland" is Zhou Enlai's favorite, and everyone is always in tears.
When the Long March Suite was reported in the capital, Zhou Enlai went to see the performance for three consecutive nights. After each performance, he talks about his feelings and communicates with everyone.
Zhou Enlai once said to several composers, "Comrade Xiao Hua's lyrics are well written, your music is also good, and they sing better, especially two horses and one Jia (referring to singers,,). I think it's time to perform and listen to opinions from all sides.
For example, although you broke through the wall form of chorus, how to solve the music wall? Otherwise, playing a chorus will affect listening and singing. "Zhou Enlai also asked the actors to teach him to sing again and again.
1975, with the support of Deng Xiaoping, to commemorate the 40th anniversary of the victory of the Red Army's Long March, it was decided to re-stage the performance of Song of the Long March, and make it into a film art film and put it on the screen.
At that time, Deng Xiaoping suggested that Xiao Hua modify some lyrics to facilitate the comeback of the Long March Suite. Xiaohua made two changes according to the suggestion. After the comrades-in-arms song and dance troupe of Beijing Military Region accepted the task, the original team rehearsed it again.
After the wonderful singing by the Comrades Song and Dance Troupe of Beijing Military Region and the careful shooting by Bayi Film Studio, "The Song of the Long March-The Red Army is Not Afraid of Expedition" was made into a film, which was officially released on 1976, which aroused strong resonance in the whole country and became a well-known red classic at that time.
After the birth of 1965, the Long March Suite has been revised many times, resulting in different versions, and there are three relatively stable and widely circulated versions, namely, the premiere version 1965, the replay version 1975 and the dance version 1992.
Among them, the 1975 version has the longest circulation time, the widest scope and the most familiar to the audience. Compared with the version of 1965, there are many changes in the lyrics and the treatment of the last paragraph "A Generation of Masters".
1992 version, the lyrics are all back to the original, and at the same time, the band organization, the number and length of chorus and the dance elements are added.
"The Long March Suite" is not only a chorus, but its performance form bears a distinct brand of the times. During the singing process, the chorus members in military uniforms change their formations on the stage according to the lyrics, which is full of sense of the times.
In this half century, more than 50 spring and autumn periods, the Long March Songs has been accompanied by the growth of several generations, and many of its aria have become household names, known to women and children.
Over the past 50 years, this work has been cordially cared by Zhou Enlai and other revolutionaries of the older generation, and has poured into and condensed the painstaking efforts of several generations of artists. With its profound and concise vocabulary, fresh and moving beautiful tunes, rich national style and popular performing arts, it has influenced generations of China people.
Over the past 50 years, the Long March Song and Dance Troupe has toured at home and abroad 1000, with millions of visitors. It is a miracle in the history of China's music and China's performance, and a classic of China's music in the 20th century.
Song of the Long March is an eternal complex, an unremitting pursuit, a lofty belief and a song that is integrated into life. Unforgettable, deep into the bone marrow!
"Long March Songs" has been sung for 50 years, and the victory of the Red Army's Long March has entered its 80th anniversary. Singing the "Long March Song" forever is to carry forward the Long March spirit, let it be passed down from generation to generation, and inspire the Long March spirit to move forward.
