Four singing methods of three generations, old, middle and young

Performance of folk song classics

The four singing methods of ethnic, original, bel canto and popular are more representative in current folk song singing. The Beijing New Year Concert has always adhered to the principle of "eclectic" and put forward "four singing methods to sing folk songs", integrating the four singing methods into one concert for display, including bel canto, popular, ethnic, and original. The four ecological singing methods all show their respective advantages. In terms of repertoire arrangement, the New Year concert will all use "familiar and popular" folk songs as the repertoire, which fully echoes the New Year's Eve and the Spring Festival, and can arouse the audience's sense of national identity. The 2006 Beijing New Year Concert will bring you classic folk songs from different eras through three generations of national artists and young singers. For example, Caidan Dolma and Guo Song are singers from the older generation. They will sing "New Merchant" and "New Merchant" live. "Losing the Ring", "The Turned Serf Sings", "Beijing's Golden Mountain" and other classic songs of the 1950s and 1960s; Ding Yi, Nie Jianhua, Wang Hongwei, Wu Bixia and other Mesozoic singers will use their best "Shandan" Classic melodies such as "Pan Blossoms Are Red", "Hymn", "Western Singing", "Little River Flowing", etc. perform the most representative folk songs in the Northwest and Yunnan regions. And Li Qiong, Ha Hui, You Hongfei and other Mongolian, Tibetan, Hui, Zhuang and Shanxi original singers will also show their style and strength through the New Year Concert, such as "Eighteen Bends on the Mountain Road", "Women Can't Rest" ", "Driving the Animals", "Want to Kiss", "Three Days' Journey and Two Days", "Qinghai-Tibet Plateau", "Fisher Girl at the Seaside" and other classic folk songs, movie songs and art songs are being carefully prepared and rehearsed .

Five female singers from four ethnic groups

Sung "A Big River" together

Last year's New Year's concert included a song called "Shandandan Blossoms in Red." The song was sung acapella without accompaniment, followed by a bel canto accompaniment by a symphony orchestra. It can be said to be a pioneering singing method that brought an unprecedented feeling to the audience. The response was very enthusiastic. This year's New Year's concert will still retain this beautiful song, but it will be sung in a bel canto style with the accompaniment of a symphony orchestra, which will give it a different flavor. The most charming song this year will be the interlude "A Big River" in the movie "Shangganling". It will be performed by five young female singers from the four ethnic groups: Mongolian, Tibetan, Zhuang and Han, using three singing methods: bel canto, ethnic and popular. In the performance, the organizers hope that the audience will hear the "harmonious and beautiful" singing with different charms from the Brahmaputra River, the Yangtze River, the Yellow River, and the different rivers in China.

"Three Auspicious Treasures"

Sung in the Great Hall for the first time

Last year, the most popular song with the highest number of clicks on the Internet was "Three Auspicious Treasures". It will make its debut at the Great Hall of the People. The three-member family group Burenbayar, Uzhina, and Ingma have created a precedent for the singing format of the Beijing New Year Concert. It is reported that this song has also entered the CCTV program this year. The popularity of the alternative repertoire for the Spring Festival Gala is evident. In addition to famous songs and a variety of singing styles, this concert also features a variety of singing groups, including solo singers, male and female duets, three-person family groups, four-person male vocal performances, as well as music such as "Spring Festival Overture" .
