Anti-Japanese songs are _ _ _ _ _ _ _

The September 18th Incident broke out in p>1931, and the fact that Japanese militarism invaded China caused an unprecedented upsurge of national crisis. With the anti-Japanese national salvation movement, mass national salvation singing activities appeared. The vast number of progressive musicians have created a large number of songs to save the nation. Thus laying a foundation for another trend of Chinese song creation.

Nie Er is an outstanding writer of national salvation songs. In just two years or so, most of the more than 3 songs he wrote were widely circulated and successful. Graduation Song, New Woman, Pioneers and March of the Volunteers are his pioneering works in March. "Flying Flower Song" and "Village Girl beyond the Great Wall" are very distinctive works among the lyric songs of folk songs.

In the national salvation singing activities, you can also cite songs with marching styles such as "March of the Sword" (Mai Xin's lyrics), "Go to the Enemy's Rear" (Xian Xinghai's lyrics) and "Guerrilla Songs" (He Lvting's lyrics). The mass songs with marching style laid in this period (called queue songs in the future) have shown mature national characteristics in China, such as less use of chordal decomposition melody, but mainly pentatonic scale; The melody is multi-progressive, lyrical and so on.

At the same time, progressive musicians are also involved in pop music creation activities with movies as the main media. For example, Nie Er's Farewell to Nanyang, The Melody of Mei Niang, The Singing Girl under the Iron Shoe, Ren Guang and An E's Fishing Light Song and Bachelor, He Lvting's Four Seasons Songs, singing girl (Tian Hanguang's Ci), In the Spring (Guan Lu and He Lvting's Ci), Autumn Water Yiren and He Rijun of Liu Xuean.

In short, before the outbreak of War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, China's song creation can be roughly divided into two branches except a few artistic songs. One is pop music represented by Li Jinhui, and the other is mass songs represented by Nie Er and Xian Xinghai. Pop music is based on the western pop music form, and there are two trends in writing: folk songs and western-made large and small modes. Mass songs are based on western marches and folk songs, while there are two trends in writing: folk songs and marches. The type differentiation completed so far has laid the basic situation of mass song creation in the future.

iv. War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression and the creation of popular music and mass songs during the War of Liberation

During War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, the puppet rulers in the occupied areas attached great importance to the propaganda function of popular songs. During the Puppet Manchuria, Li Xianglan, a famous singer, once became a man of the hour in pop music.

Li Xianglan is a Japanese, born in China, whose real name is Shuko Yamaguchi. After the war, he returned to Japan and became a Japanese senator in politics. During the Anti-Japanese War, she was used to sing a lot of popular songs, such as Manchu Girl, Quit Smoking Song, Night in zhina, Suzhou Nocturne, etc., all of which were aimed at beautifying Japanese militarism and promoting "the survival of East Asia", which had a bad influence at that time and aroused strong opposition from people with conscience in China.

At that time, the active composers of China pop music were Li Jinguang, Chen Gexin, Yao Min, Liang Leyin, Yan Gongshang and others. Among them, Li Jinguang and Chen Gexin are the most influential. Li Jinguang's representative works include cordate telosma, wind in May, crazy world, betel nut picking, etc. Chen Gexin's representative works include Roses Everywhere, Fisherman's Daughter, Fire of Love, On the Hill and so on.

During this period, China's pop music didn't achieve much. Except for some technical progress, the overall style has not exceeded the early pattern.

Generally speaking, the development of China pop music from its emergence to the founding of New China in 1949 was carried out under semi-feudal and semi-colonial conditions. Due to the limitation of specific historical environment, its development is imperfect. On the one hand, it has a strong colonial flavor and inherent weakness; On the other hand, due to the underdeveloped social economy and culture, popular songs are only for the petty bourgeoisie and the citizen class. The theme of the work is narrow and the production technology is rough. This determines that the development of China pop music will go through a tortuous road.

Since War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, progressive musicians with Yan 'an as the center have continued to develop their creations along the direction of national salvation singing activities. The birth of Xian Xinghai's The Yellow River Cantata, Zheng Lvcheng's Ode to Yan 'an, Li Jiefu's Singing Two Small Boys and Let the Cowherd Go, as well as the production of the army and the people, Nanniwan, the operas White-haired Girl and Liu Hulan all show a dynamic development trend. In the period of the Liberation War, there appeared some excellent songs, such as Days in the Liberated Area, Good Place Beyond the Mountain, We Workers Have Strength and Victory March.
