Miss or yearn for dreams or homesickness
In the spring of 2006, Konoha was full of vitality.
Sarilang, the Shandan flower on the famous Italian grassland, has bright colors and tenacious vitality. Red is a burning dream.
Two thousand six hundred. Sing my dreams and homesickness on the grassland full of spring!
Ching Dynasty
This is the first world music with Mongolian music as the main line in China, and it is also a world music calling for environmental protection. Sarilang also arranged, adapted and wrote lyrics in this song "Qing". Therefore, he became an excellent musician and the first musician in China to internationalize Mongolian music.
Blue is the favorite color of Mongolians. Mongolians have worshipped the immortal sky since ancient times, thinking that the cattle and sheep on the grassland are fat and the weather is good, and this sacred and close immortal sky is blue. In the war, Mongolian cavalry also used blue clothing, which was the same color as nature before nightfall and sunrise, so the Mongols turned themselves into blue Mongols and regarded blue as an auspicious color. Therefore, over the years, Blue Hada has become a habit or a way of life. During festivals or when relatives travel or friends get together, people give it to Blue Hada, which represents good luck and blessings.
cosmopolitan
People have been saying that "what is national is the world's". From the simplest understanding, the formation and lifestyle of each minority has its own characteristics, and when it forms its own unique lifestyle at that time, it is bound to be closely related to the social background and natural environment at that time, thus naturally forming its own unique characteristics in a certain historical background and natural environment. This feature will be reflected in every bit of life, for example, eating habits, clothing, singing and dancing. These national characteristics are of great interest to people all over the world. Maybe people will like it or not, but this rich and colorful national culture decorates and constitutes the world, so as not to make people feel boring.
Several songs in Sarilang's "Qing" are adapted from Horqin narrative folk songs, so if you want to know about the Mongolian culture living in Horqin grassland, you can find the answer you want through the sadness of tears and laughter in those Horqin folk songs, and the sadness about grassland desertification, which is closely related to all mankind, should be another world of this "Qing".
warmth
Music comes from life, but it is higher than life. In this fast food era, people's lives are becoming more and more simple and monotonous. Because of the pressure of life and the acceleration of the pace of life, not many people can pay attention to all kinds of things outside work. Perhaps busy festivals make people have no time to grieve and think and express their feelings. It is not that these fast-paced people are not sad in their hearts, nor that these fast-paced people do not need care and warmth. Sarilang believes that as a musician, you should use music to care for and warm these hearts that will be numb or unconscious, with the deep affection and sadness in the bones of Mongolian music, and with these forgotten and buried sad hearts. And arouse people's innate and instinctive kindness, so that people pay more attention to environmental protection.
Consistent desire, young team.
The players in Sarilang's "Youth" are all born after 80s or even 90s. Saqilatu, the music director, is a young Ma Touqin performer of the National Orchestra of Chengdu Art Theatre. As a musician born after 1980s, he did not revel in and follow the popular music that was replaced after it became popular like a gust of wind, but devoted himself to the excavation and creation of national music. He also thinks Mongolian songs are beautiful and sad. After listening to it, people feel very comfortable, so we should use Mongolian music to warm and care for those people whose lives are full of work and forget the sorrow, awaken their instinctive kindness and let people find their own spiritual light.
Ma Jun, the chief percussion instrument of Chengdu Philharmonic Orchestra, is a young man who has a deep study and love for percussion instruments. His love and understanding of African drums make you dumbfounded. No matter what kind of music, he has his own understanding and immediately beats the rhythm that makes you feel excited. Perhaps because Ma Jun is a Hui nationality and loves ethnic minority songs, he thinks that the combination of good ethnic minority songs and various percussion instruments is a new form of music.
Fan Zongpei Gutian is still a freshman. He has been playing the cello since he was six years old. Although he is a Han nationality, he has listened to a lot of beautiful music, including various new music forms and world music, at the request and indoctrination of his father since childhood. When we asked him about his feelings and understanding of world music, he could make it clear at a young age. The cello in Qing bears the heaviness and sadness, which is also in line with the timbre and characteristics of the cello itself. Fan is very young, just 18 years old. Consciously playing various national melodies with cello at a young age. This must be a natural musical influence. In the following time, we will certainly be able to hear the timbre and emotion of the cello soaked with the joys and sorrows of this ethnic group. Perhaps this is the globalization process of cello itself. Let's listen to a cello by Horqin first.
Multiethnic integration
The musicians and singers in Qing come from different nationalities. The beautiful affection of Mongolians and the sadness of Ma Touqin are a natural combination, while the dialogue between Tibetan folk songs and Mongolian long tunes, including Ma Touqin, cello and African drums, adds new blood to this album, which sounds fresher and purifies the soul.
Struggle between String and Folk Style
In the process of recording "Qing", in order to reflect the local color of Horqin folk songs, it added a lot of trouble to cello and Ma Touqin. Sakkila Tu kept shaking his head and said, "Ha! This kind of walking is the way the folk old people play, and this so-called big belly sound is the last to appear on the string. " Hearing this, the cello nodded frequently, as if it had finally found the appearance of * * *, which was very sad, especially when recording Drunk, because the four melodies in Drunk were all Diane's melodies, which were traditional Mongolian folk songs and dances. It has been circulating in Horqin grassland for more than 200 years, which is the evolution and development of ancient collective dance forms such as stamping feet, arm-in-arm dance and tree dance. As the intangible cultural heritage of the Mongolian people, it is the traditional wealth and cultural carrier of Mongolian folk art. Traditional Diane retains the original cultural characteristics of ancient Mongolian demons, Chagan Ole (white kite), marriage, religion, medicine and so on, and includes music, poetry, dance and other forms of expression. In the Qing Dynasty, in order to use Ma Touqin and cello to complete Diane's melody, which is called intangible cultural heritage, many rules of strings were changed or broken. .
Fate and Dream
Speaking of Sarilang's original intention of introducing Horqin folk songs to the world, I still mentioned Sarilang's birth experience. She was born in the beautiful Horqin Prairie, and spent 50 days in her aunt's house when she was three and a half years old. My aunt is a primary school teacher and likes singing very much, so she teaches Sarilang to sing Horqin folk songs in her spare time. What my aunt didn't expect was that Sarilang not only learned quickly, but also remembered well. In this way, during my stay in menstruation's home, I learned two Horqin folk songs every day and sang them to my friends and relatives. At that time, Sarilang didn't remember anything. I only remembered what many people around her were doing, but all the old people in the village who had heard Sarilang sing remembered this little singer. Later, Sarilang's memories and singing scenes were heard from people in her aunt's village.
In 2004, Sarilang signed a contract with Sarilang. Teacher Li, who was chatting with Sarilang about his musical dreams at that time, inadvertently asked "What is the highest ideal of music", which made Sarilang's song Qing today. Speaking of it, this is fate. In fact, before the release of the first album "Mu Ye" in 2005, Mr. Li's production team wanted to make a World Music with Mongolian music elements as the main line. But the communication with the production team for a year didn't produce a sound, so they made "Mu Ye", a pop music. However, Sarilang felt that he had a sense of responsibility and debt. He felt that he had said that "the greatest wish is to stand on the world stage and sing his own national songs". Having said this, he felt that he could not break his word and should keep his promise. In this way, the seeds of world music were buried in Sarilang's heart.
Holding the musical dream of making world music, Sarilang came to beautiful Chengdu and this strange city. Everything is new and unfamiliar. Sarilang has no time to touch anything but music. Whenever he has time, he chats with musicians, talks about music and listens to music. He is immersed in music every day. After half a year in Chengdu, he also did a few imaginary things, but did not achieve the expected results. At a loss, I want to go back to Beijing, and I don't want to stay here. Everything is so strange, everything has no sense of closeness and no sense of accomplishment. I don't want to go back like this. I don't know what to do. Sarilang began to feel depressed and wanted to give up her dream of making world music. He thinks that popular, popular, familiar and acceptable music is better and faster. Why did he turn into a dead end to do a difficult thing? Sarilang couldn't give himself a satisfactory answer. She began to doubt everything and not contact anyone. She feels that she has not achieved anything, but the reality is so difficult for her to make a decision, and her dream has always been in her heart. . . . . . . . . . . By chance, when attending the 6th Sichuan Minority Art Festival, a Mongolian boy wearing a Mongolian robe and pulling Ma Touqin caught Sarilang's attention. After coming to Chengdu for so long, Sarilang was very excited to know this Mongolian boy-Saqilatu.
He is a Ma Touqin actor in Chengdu Song and Dance Troupe, and Ma Touqin plays very well. He is an enthusiastic Mongolian boy. Saqila knew the purpose of Sarilang's coming to Chengdu and found that she was very anxious. After talking a lot about music, Saqila said that you can make music slowly, adjust your life and make more friends, and you will feel happier, so that you will have a good mood and a good state. In this way, you will introduce many of your good friends, although your dream has not come true. However, after making more friends, I feel much better and enriched. When I have nothing to do, I will go to the bar to sing and play, and then talk about other different music. When singing and playing in a bar, I met a music lover who likes Mongolian music very much and prefers Mongolian long tunes. When he knew that Sarilang had a dream of making world music, he felt that it was really necessary to support such a musical dream in a fast-paced era, so I looked for producers everywhere to let them and Sarilang. Talking about his musical dream, he kept saying, "Don't give up, you must persist, and you will find like-minded people", and copied many different styles of world music to Sarilang. While listening to different world music, Sarilang began to compare and analyze them, found their uniqueness, and decided to make a simple and pure world music with Mongolian music as the element. In this way, these musicians with the same fate and dreams have completed this song "Qing". In Sarilang's words, this is to build dreams with fate.
Sad sarilang
Blue is the color that Mongolians like, perhaps because Mongolians worship the immortal sky, which is blue, or because Mongolians think that the grassland has been in good weather for thousands of years, cattle and sheep have been fattened by the immortal sky, and Mongolians born in modern times have their own interpretation of blue, so Mongolians call the Mongolian plateau (the earth) blue Mongolia (plateau).
Green is full of blue Mongolian sadness: for many years, the grassland has given these Mongolians who are close to nature an open mind and passionate personality, and at the same time it has given Mongolians their own unique sadness, which Sarilang called blue Mongolian sadness. This kind of sadness permeates the hearts of Mongolians: perhaps because they can only talk to everything in the world in the blue vault, or perhaps because of the infiltration of nomadic life in the grassland, the complex and inexplicable sadness of human instinct has emerged in people's hearts. It is this sadness that breeds and creates the Mongolian unique broad, vast, profound, affectionate, distant and sad long tune and folk songs with the characteristics of various tribes. A sad melody will purify people's hearts and arouse all kinds of sadness in people's hearts. Maybe everyone who hears this sad melody has different reasons for being sad, but the inner feelings of feeling pain are the same. Is this what people call * * * singing?
The culture of each era has its own characteristics. Ancient Mongols knelt down and prayed for eternal life, but at the same time they felt sad about eternal life. When they are sad, they will express their feelings with songs. Now, Mongolian's "sadness" is added with a real development and human desire, which brings the same sadness to Mongolians and people on earth-grassland desertification, river drying up, dust hazard and air pollution. These phenomena make grassland people who have lived in the most natural way for thousands of years feel great sorrow, worry and sadness ... which means that Mongolians will lose their homes and will be forced to lose their homes due to environmental damage.
As a Mongolian musician, Sarilang wants to awaken people's innate goodness with music, give up endless desires and warm people's injured hearts with distant, affectionate, profound and sad Mongolian music. To this end, she adapted these Horqin folk songs and made them cosmopolitan. At the same time, the sadness of Mongolia in Qing runs through the whole.
In this fast-food life rhythm, the music form is bound to be fast-food, but I believe that this EP "Qing" by Sarilang will definitely warm and touch the most fragile "pure land" in people's hearts in the noise of the city, because the joys and sorrows in "Qing" belong to everyone and are a "green" world.
Qing's philosophical thought
Zhu Zheqin's Sister Drum realized the dream of China people's music going to the world. The ancient and mysterious oriental culture, the mystery in religious sense and the novelty in melody arrangement also make China people realize the trend of world music.
The attraction of the ancient oriental culture to the outside world is not limited to the mystery of the snowy plateau and Tibetan Buddhism, but the nomadic culture in the north, as well as the Mongolian culture that has become a model of nomadic culture, has established a great empire in the history of China, and has also created its own glory and nurtured its own culture-sadness, introversion and deep learning. . . . . .
Sarilang's "Qing" and Zhu Zheqin's "Sisters Drum" both combine the mystery of national culture with ancient and world-wide music forms, thus making it easier for people to understand oriental culture.
The sadness, profundity and deep feeling in Qing are the unique blue sadness of Mongolians. Sarilang wants more people in the world to know about grassland culture, nomadic culture and Mongolian culture.
Playing Mongolian melody with cello adds depth, profundity and massiness to the already sad Mongolian melody, and Ma Touqin, perhaps the only crying instrument in the world today, will touch and warm people's deepest sadness. The dialogue between Mongolian long tune and Tibetan folk songs, and the clever dialogue between Tibetan folk songs and Ma Touqin, cello and African drum are all new ideas and ideas, which are also novel and unique from the perspective of audio-visual perception.
"Qing" is called "Qing Meng" because of the worship of Mongolian ancestors for immortality. In the hearts of Mongolians who have been writing their own blue history for thousands of years, it is noble and sacred. ...
When the sun comes out in the morning, the twilight is a color between black and blue, which is called cyan. At this time, the darkness recedes, the light comes, everything wakes up, and the world is still silent, which makes people think, grieve and yearn. People can talk with their hearts. There is the loss of Mongolian glory, the dialogue with everything in the world in the blue vault, and the inexplicable, complicated and wonderful sadness of human instinct that the nomadic life in the grassland permeates people's hearts. This kind of sadness breeds and creates a broad, vast, profound, affectionate, distant and sad long tune with the characteristics of various tribes unique to grassland people and folk songs, while Sarilang thinks that the sadness of grassland people and Mongolians is the sadness of other nationalities.
The beautiful Horqin is where the descendants of Hasal live. The sadness in Horqin folk songs is a kind of sadness in distress situation. It tells, exposes and accuses all kinds of social injustice at that time with the unique humor in Mongolian bones, which embodies the unique musical characteristics of Horqin people. Diane there has a mysterious religious color and a romantic story, and Sarilang's Drunk once again sublimates Diane.
Sarilang was born in Horqin grassland. When she was three and a half years old, she could sing more than one hundred Horqin folk songs. In this EP "Qing", it is not difficult for Sarilang to internationalize Horqin folk songs while maintaining the unique and pure style, because Horqin folk songs have coexisted with Sarilang's atmosphere. As a musician, Sarilang feels that it is her ideal and responsibility to internationalize her favorite Horqin folk songs and introduce them to people all over the world in a new way.
The culture of each era has its own characteristics. Among the "sadness" of modern Mongolians, there is also the sadness brought by the development of reality and human desire to grassland people and people on earth-grassland desertification, river drying up, sandstorm raging and air pollution. These phenomena make grassland people who have lived in the most natural way for thousands of years feel great sadness, worry and sadness ... Sad Sarilang hopes to call.
In this fast-food life rhythm, the music form is bound to be fast-food, but I believe that this EP "Qing" by Sarilang will definitely warm and touch the most fragile "pure land" in people's hearts in the noise of the city, because the joys and sorrows in "Qing" belong to everyone and are a "green" world!
Listen carefully to Miss Keerqin.
Listening to Horqin (Girl) album is a Mongolian music album with a faint flavor of folk songs. It is another sigh and return after Sarilang launched the EP "Love", a world music with strong Horqin elements, in March last year. Returning to the soul of Horqin narrative folk songs, all the singing methods of his own design framework are not used, but the voices of people who have lived in Horqin grassland for hundreds of years are spoken. Therefore, Sarilang boldly used only one guitar here, and the guitar only rendered the atmosphere, not the accompaniment form that everyone often heard. Sarilang thought that this would not be a presumptuous guest usurps the host's role. You can be true and credible if you listen to Horqin clearly:
"Listening clearly" is not a typo, but allows you to hear the voice of the people in the grassland. Speaking of "listening clearly", Sarilang herself has many ideas: she grew up under the influence of Horqin folk songs, and the soul of Horqin folk songs has given Sarilang a distinctive "color". In Sarilang's view, whether it is Horqin folk songs or Erdos folk songs with a palace flavor, the songs of the people in Hulunbeier and Xilin Gol grasslands, which are dominated by long tunes, cannot be separated from one feature-that is, "sadness". It seems that this is the "soul" of Mongolian folk songs, not as cheerful and noisy as the grassland songs heard on the market now. So Sarilang came up with an album of Mongolian folk songs close to oratorio. Maybe many people are not used to listening to a song so quietly, or many people think it is too close to the people, which is unacceptable or too simple in terms of singing skills and so-called professionalism. However, Sarilang believes that this can truly reflect people's lives expressed by music. Just like an injured person wants to sing, he can also consider where to sing. What did you learn in college, such as how to bite? Don't! Certainly not, but what he expresses can infect you and bring you closer. This is the musicality and humanity of music and what Sarilang wants to pursue and express. . . .
Reproduce the singing of folk artists and really sing with your heart;
Sarilang began to listen to the songs of the old artist Chagan Bala at the age of three and a half, and he can sing nearly one hundred songs. There is no doubt that the combination of folk songs and pop music has its own market, but Sarilang still wants to restore the "true colors" of Horqin folk songs. No matter whether she is red or not, no matter how many people accept it, Sarilang thinks that only the original colors can reflect its ancient style, and with the exaggerated atmosphere, more people will be interested in it and will not lose it. Therefore, Sarilang tried his best to abandon the unattainable professional singing method he learned in college, return to nature, and learn to sing with old artists. That's true singing with your heart. Using "girl" is only the beginning of "listening to Horqin" in "listening to grassland series";
If you know about Horqin folk songs and listen to them carefully, you will know that their greatest feature is "narration", that is, telling a story with a melody. The thirteen classic pop songs named after girls and telling girls' stories selected by Sarilang for the first time in "Listening to Horqin" are the beginning of "Listening to Grassland Series", because the songs about the love story of girls and lovers occupy a large part of Horqin folk songs.
Qingting sarilang
Daughter is the source of this world. In ancient times, Mencius became a saint because of Meng Mu, and Genghis Khan became a historical figure because of Temujin's mother. How many loving mothers have cultivated many figures of the times and sages since ancient times, and how many songs about mothers have been widely circulated since ancient times. Singing mom has also become an important link for people to express their feelings.
Mongolians have many songs praising their mothers. Perhaps the nomadic life of the ancient prairie people must be the man outside the house and the woman inside. The father outside may stay away from his children for several days on the distant grassland, so that everyone can spend most of his childhood in close contact with his mother and make everyone's growing years closer to his mother's feelings. In the eyes of a young child, in addition to feeling his mother's tenderness and love, all he can see is that her mother is busy sewing clothes for herself from morning till night. This is the mother in the eyes of Mongolian children-kind, tolerant, caring and caring. Over the years, Ejina grassland has nurtured strong Mongolian heroes and gentle and virtuous grassland daughters.
From the perspective of Mongolian cultural tradition, "mother" has a wider meaning in the eyes of grassland people. Every grassland child will naturally call "Mom" when he meets a woman the same age as his mother and an elderly grandmother, because in the eyes of children, every grassland Ejina Banner is the same "code"-"hardworking", "kind" and "gentle and generous".
However, these "symbols" and the Mongolian proverb "The mother's mind should be on the child, but the child's mind should be on the distant mountain" have to make a child who grew up on the grassland feel heartache and can't help loving, so she feels that she can't repay her mother's love anyway. The grassland children who are deeply touched have created so many songs to sing her mother, which makes people feel sad and sad. . . . . . .
Sarilang is telling. . . . . .
Speak your mother's mind
Ma Touqin is very sad. . . . . .
A sad mother will grow old. . . . .
