On China's National Singing Method.
China's ancient folk singing is essentially China's bel canto.

1 song

In the past, the unique song of ancient national singing was not the traditional five-tone Gong Shang Jiao Zheng, but the seven-tone Westernization, and the ascending and descending horns were frequently used. The songs performed in this way have a strong westernization flavor and have gained the flavor of traditional folk songs.

After absorbing the Bel Canto in Europe, the ancient folk singing method created its own chest-abdomen combined breathing method with abdominal breathing as the main method, with strong vocal cord tension and concentrated singing. Grasping the jaw, opening the jaw, lifting the laughing muscles, flattening the tongue, grasping the neck and shoulders, and emphasizing the muscle strength of the waist and abdomen are different from bel canto: the glottis are actively close together. Automatically block the air downward, so that the exhaled airflow can be converted into sound waves to the maximum extent, and the pronunciation is concentrated and bright; Adhere to the elasticity of vocal cords and the balance in movement, so as to increase the burden and fatigue of vocal cords, obtain more homophonic vibration, and cooperate with the * * * sound of head cavity to produce one-sided and universal * * * sound effect; Use different methods to change timbre and volume, modify aria and express emotions, and use the cavity of * * * in a one-sided and balanced way; Give full play to the * * sounds of nasal cavity (nasal cavity), pharynx cavity and larynx cavity, properly use the * * sounds of chest cavity, and cooperate with the frequently changing oral * * sounds in articulation lyrics to form a vertical columnar * * sound channel with pharyngeal cavity as the axis, connecting the upper cavity (nasal cavity), lower larynx cavity and chest cavity, so as to achieve the best overall * * * sound effect; Open the throat, lift the soft palate, grasp the chin, and form an open "trigeminal cavity" ("triangular area") in the pharyngeal cavity to achieve good overtones (that is, nasal cavity and head cavity).

Among the ancient national singing methods, the singing method in the bass area is the most westernized, completely abandoning the traditional singing method of shouting with real voice. Use falsetto and * * * to complete the bass singing. Both ancient folk singing and bel canto adopted the methods of consistent range, wide range and combination of true and false sounds. This is the result of the blending and mutual influence of Chinese and western civilizations, and it can also be said that it is a great effect in the development of vocal music education in the next country. Why can the academic school be so weak? In the minds of many people. Europe stands for advanced and superstitious. They think that as long as bel canto is "superstitious", they think that as long as bel canto is systematic. In fact, many ethnic groups in the country next door have their own independent and complete vocal music system, but they have not sorted it out.

Folk song art is the foundation, soil and matrix of China Song civilization. Throughout the history of China or the whole history of human civilization, all arts have a process from rough to exquisite, which is rough at first, but full of vitality. Exquisiteness is a law of art development, but after exquisiteness, the vitality of art begins to decline gradually, especially after becoming a "prominent scholar", it is easier to become single, standardized and featureless. So what should we do when singing civilization has reached this point? /article.asp? ID=329 17 The first thing is to learn from the government and take the road of diversification. Learning from the government is the best way to save the mainstream from exquisiteness and regenerate it. Seeking the roots and vitality from the government is probably the only way out of the dilemma of "national singing" and the need to restore ecological songs as the mainstream status of national singing.

Folk songs are handed down from generation to generation, and the inheritance of heart to heart. Many experts believe that ethnic groups in remote areas have not been able to update clearly because of their slow pace of life. In today's social environment, oral folk songs have been more integrated into the content of ancient life. So it reproduces the "original flavor" thousands of years ago. It is out of the question. CCTV Young Singers Competition, by setting the original ecological singing method, allows folk singers who usually live in distant areas to show the richness of national civilization on the stage, and also allows the audience who are tired of "familiar faces" to enjoy novel civilization; It also punished a group of music task personnel for their efforts to preserve and promote folk songs. However, is it too objective and lacks superstitious basis to maintain national civilization by dividing the original ecological singing method? In other words, can there be better and more ways to maintain folk songs? These are worthy of our constant discussion and discussion.
