experience

He made his debut in 1914. He was born in Hokkaido's Kushiro town (the predecessor of Kushiro city). He was the third boy of Kewa, the coin silk dance police bureaucrat Yifu Buli San. In 1927, he entered Sapporo No.2 junior high school (the predecessor of Hokkaido Sapporo West University) at the age of 13. In 1932, he entered Imperial University of Hokkaido (the predecessor of Hokkaido University) at the age of 18.

When he was young, because his father was the village head, he followed his father to Ainu's village. There, I came into contact with the dance of the Ainu people, the music of Ainu, and the national musical instruments of mknu and tangkorui. Interested in different cultures and music of Japanese people. At the same time, a lot of contact with the contemporary music of SP records. Constance Thomas, who practiced Violin and was a student orchestral in college.

When I was in Sapporo No.2 junior high school, my friend Sanpu Chunshi (later a music critic) heard from overseas that "the meaning of doing music is different from that of doing composition" and "I talk about it" and began to compose music on his own. Later, I made friends with Osaka.

Inspired by Igor's Spring Festival, he also studied the composition of orchestral music, including three songs in the morning of autumn and guitar music (music scores missing together).

He Li, 1933, 19. Sufen, who communicated with Sanpu, is an American pianist. He wrote piano suite. He composed and sent music for Copland's "listen to my music on the opposite side of the earth". Sanpu wrote a composition Reply of "good composer sends music". However, later became orchestral version, Zheng version, orchestral version of orchestral composition, become a lifelong career works. In addition, I received a reply from Copland about "how to play interesting music". However, it is said that because of the Soviet civil war, the letter was cut off.

During this period, I met the composer Osaka Wenxiong. Sanpu and Sakamoto formed a "New Music Alliance". At that time, while playing the most cutting-edge modern music works, he taught himself the composition method and devoted himself to the construction of traditional Japanese local music works.

After graduating in 1935 at the age of 21, he composed Japanese Rhapsody (all three movements) at the request of American conductor Fabian, and was sent to Boston University. In the same year, he won the champion prize in Paris and became one of the censors. He came across such news that he cut the first movement of the Japanese Rhapsody award, GIRU dance. As a result, he had to come down from the position of censor because of his illness. However, jazz blues and composers representing modern French music were censored. The competition will be held against the Japanese, but the venue for the review will be Paris. When the score was sent to Paris, the score sent from Tokyo was also declared in Tokyo. However, music officials in Tokyo looked up the score.

Ignoring the ban of western music harmony such as parallel fifth degree, as a Japanese, they used the tunes of Japanese traditional music with humble status.

Most of the extreme instruments are percussion instruments (9 players). The orchestral music of "three orchestral arrangements" is required.

Hoanamachi, Hokkaido.

For this reason, it's quite frightening and confusing. In particular, according to 1. The opinion that "it is a shame for the Japanese central music circles who have studied the orthodox western music to take down the music of iFob from the recruitment" has also come out. However, it is not us in Tokyo (the Japanese on that occasion) who are censoring, but everyone in Paris, who has not met the recruitment requirements. The reason to avoid censorship is not easy to be recruited. The music of IFO was declared to the auditorium in Paris.

As a result, iFob became the first prize winner and was praised by the world. At this time, he ranked second, and Yifu and song pinglai taught themselves to compose music together. Later, he formed a new composition school association with Songping. The following year, the conductor and Boston P pulse Symphony Orchestra made their debut in the United States. At the beginning of the performance, the first movement of the championship prize was cut and played, and it became illusory forever. Moreover, the illusory first movement of Japanese Rhapsody "Jilu dance" helps to improve Japanese Rhapsody, which is written as the second narrative poem (second movement) of "symphonic Tam poem" recalling the merits of Er Ge.

The Japanese Rhapsody is a large-scale work of Dachun. However, the part that is easy to play is considered to be composed of Yingqu for many times and becomes the following works. All 14 members of the group wrote a small orchestral piece "local customs Sanlian painting" which was performed by Dachun alone.

In the same year before and during the war, he worked as a Forest Officer of Houan forest office. He Li, 1938, 24 years old. He wrote piano suite before and was selected into Venice International Modern Music Festival. In this period, apart from Japanese folk music, there were many works of the Ainu ethnic minorities seeking Hokkaido and Huatai. He Li 1940, 26. He resigned as Forest Officer and worked in the experimental forest office of Imperial University of Hokkaido. He Li, 1942, 28. Brother meritorious service, Tokyo Haneda wartime scientific research center.

He Li 1940, 29. "Symphony narrative poem". The same song won the prize in the winning composition competition, and the works of iFob were recorded.

Along with the Pacific War, he made military music such as March (classical military music "Jizhi dance" and "preface to soldiers") and government propaganda music (Orchestral overture of the people of the Philippines) and tonal poem of orchestral music "cold forest".

He Li 1945, 31 years old. The forestry examination room of the imperial Forestry Bureau and his brother were scientific researchers in wartime. He was engaged in the research of wood strengthening by radiation, but at that time, he had no protective clothing, no defense, and continued to experiment, and was injured by radiation. At the same time, Japan was defeated in the war. I couldn't continue to work. I took music as my duty there and decided to go to Beijing. He was invited by the president of Tokyo Conservatory of music (now Tokyo University of Arts) as a lecturer in composition. In this composition section, I miss Akutagawa, yecunzhi, Dai Minlang and so on for the first time. The former's Akutagawa gave two lectures, and then visited the iFob family of aorizhao. After staying for several days, such anecdotes came out. In addition, as an educator, he has cultivated many composers, such as: Shozo Matsumura, Akio Yandai, keno Ikeno, Taiichiro Kosugi, Masaki Yamauchi, Masaki Ishii, mituhiro, chongko Imai, KEISHI Maru, and Tsung Imai. In addition, Dongbao's film music composition.

He Li, 1947, 33. For the first time, he played the film music of Silver Ridge fruit. First contact with this work, sad scenes of music, such an impression of music and supervision of Taniguchi differences and opposition. Stop the recording of the day, let the player return and talk for several hours. At this time, Akira Kurosawa mediated the script. The tune was adopted through Hazel's arbitration. However, the scenes of the clips are all the works, but the result is the music that tries to express the protagonist's mood. Finally, the sincere attitude towards music was well appraised by the producers.

He Li, 1953, 39. He retired as a music lecturer at Tokyo Conservatory of music.

He Li, 1954, 40 years old. Playing music for Godzilla (1954 film).

After that, he personally produced many film music such as harp and zuotou series. Especially in "Godzilla", how can we not determine the performance of the song of the first ghost? We propose to use the Double Bass Cello and the creaking of cello to play. The sound is finally made by the sound engineer sanshengichiro, who turns the tape to make it complete. What is the secret weapon in the play? Destroy and experiment in a water tank. In 1954 (Showa 29), the movie was made public, boldly using a technique not recognized by the modern music industry. From a global point of view, it is also worthy of special evaluation. What's more special is "the big monster dragon in space", which plays the piano line directly in the piano, and "counter attack" also uses 100 yen to play the piano line in the piano.

For a time in the 1950s, he belonged to Dongbao's cast and was going to listen to music lectures. At that time, there were some students, such as Bao Tian Ming and Okada Zhencheng. After that, Baotian also missed IFO and talked about the press conference and books of the film.

On the other hand, in addition to the experimental acoustics in the film music, the concert uses pure tone music tonality to keep a distance from the trend of modern music which deviates from the world. On the one hand, it runs through the representative works of this period, and on the other hand, it arranges the basic style of its own works. For this reason, a period after the war was evaluated as a period of retreat. However, he was the first person to write representative works such as piano and orchestral music, and received courtesy visits from colleagues. The evaluation will be conducted after stagnation.
