A symphony concert performed in Chicago Symphony Hall was warmly welcomed by more than 1,5 Chinese and foreign audiences. Among them, Li Chuanyun, a talented young violinist, captivated the audience. The symphony fantasia Farewell My Concubine was well received because it perfectly combined the eastern and western art forms and interpreted a well-known historical story between Xiang Yu and Yu Ji's heroic beauty in the history of China with the powerful expressive force of Chinese and western musical instruments. In the performance, the performers of Xiao, together with soloist Chen Junhua and guzheng player Zhang Xiaohong, portrayed the sentimental and delicate characters' feelings very successfully, which had a strong appeal under the background of the music of the whole orchestra. This Xiao player is Chen Yue, a young teacher of China Conservatory of Music and called "a beautiful poet and musician" by many music lovers.
Chen Yue is from Hangzhou, on the west lake of Zhejiang. The beautiful environment in the south of the Yangtze River and the artistic atmosphere at home made her have an indissoluble bond with music since she was a child. Chen Yue's father is a member of the Art Troupe. Since the age of five and a half, Chen Yue Jr. has been playing and learning to play his father's flute. At that time, everyone laughed and called her a "tomboy". "Tomboy" is intelligent and aura, and the more he plays the flute, the better. At the age of twelve, he was discovered by Zhao Songting, a famous performer, educator and flute master, and was accepted as a closed disciple. At the age of fifteen, she was successfully admitted to the High School Attached to China Conservatory of Music, and studied flute and Xiao under Professor Zhang Weiliang. She was admitted to China Conservatory of Music at the age of 18, and became a graduate student four years later. She became the first female flute master in China and stayed in school. She was one of the youngest lecturers in China Conservatory of Music.
With her innate talent and persistent efforts, Chen Yue has gradually become one of the top, mature and unique flute and flute players in China from an ordinary girl who loves music. When she was a child, in order to increase her vital capacity, she insisted on swimming and exercising. No matter how late she went to school every day, she practiced playing for more than two hours without interruption, and sometimes she fell asleep with her flute in her arms. In addition to teaching, Chen Yue often participates in various artistic practices and tries to explore and innovate, constantly improving his artistic skills. "If we say that it takes diligence to lay a solid foundation, then diligence and understanding are equally important now." Chen Yue said.
Chen Yue is a member of the National Wind Music Research Association of China Musicians Association, the Chinese National Orchestral Society and a guest soloist of the Central National Orchestra. She has visited the United States, Japan, South Korea, France, Russia and other countries and regions for many times, and has been widely praised. Chen Yue's performance works and introductions have appeared in many Chinese and foreign magazines and websites. Netizens commented that Chen Yue's performance was "so beautiful, it was the voice of nature", "I was intoxicated by listening well", "The flute sounds like a human voice" and "The flute is more affectionate with lovers" ... and praised her as a "beauty music poet" in China.
Keep forging ahead in his career. Up to now, young Chen Yue has published nine CD albums of wind music: Love Bamboo, Songs Without Words, Xiao Color, Yue of China, Dong Xiao, Chen Yue: Collision between East and West, Journey, Dialogue-Ten Modern Works of Xiao and Clarinet and IMP. These albums have been well received and welcomed by all sides. When talking about the album Xiao Se, a critic said, "Chen Yue's music style is exquisite and graceful, and she is deeply affectionate. The charming charm of this Jiangnan woman in her performance gives such an antique instrument fresh life. Under Chen Yue's lips, the simple and long timbre is full of young and beautiful sadness, but at the same time it is permeated with a youthful atmosphere ... "In 213, Chen Yue was recording a wind instrument album with the theme of scenery and ethnic customs in China, which is different from" Love Bamboo "and" Songs Without Words ",which are mainly based on pop music, and also different from" Impromptu Red ",which won by improvisation; Realm.
When talking about the performance of Farewell My Concubine, Chen Yue said that this was her first collaboration with the Chinese Symphony Orchestra. "The development of China's national instrumental music must take a diversified road of combining eastern and western instrumental music. Good traditions should be preserved, but we can't always play traditional tracks with a single instrument." Chen Yue thinks that the symphony fantasia Farewell My Concubine is a good attempt. With the help of the complementarity and collision of eastern and western musical instruments, the desolate and lingering music with the grand and deep music integration of language has produced special effects and shocking power. In this regard, Chen Yue has been exploring and striving for a breakthrough. She is cooperating with the famous Danish classical guitarist Lance and his wife, who won the Grammy Award, and the flute player Mitchell, and will soon release a ensemble album of Chinese and European folk songs with a brand-new style, half of which is China music and half is European music, from which music lovers will deeply feel the artistic charm of the diversity of Chinese and Western wind music languages.
Everyone who has come into contact with Chen Yue feels that she is cheerful, lively and straightforward, and she is totally an optimist. Many people feel that it is amazing that such a girl can play and show music with such profound connotation and artistic conception and such rich feelings. Chen Yue is a busy man. Besides teaching, performing and recording, she also offers elective courses in general comprehensive universities, teaches flutes to college students who are keen on learning folk music, and devotes herself to the popularization of China wind music, which is welcomed by many college students. She proudly told reporters that I have more than 4 amateur students studying flute and Xiao! Without the slightest arrogance and affectation, he is simple, persistent, determined and consistent. This is Chen Yue, a musician with a poetic temperament who combines inner beauty and outer beauty.
