Acting experience

Study

Since childhood, I have loved Peking Opera, especially chengpai. When he was 15 years old, he abandoned the evaluation and reform of Beijing, and went to Beijing alone to seek art. Wang Lanxiang, the first teacher, was born in Beijing. In 1986, he was admitted to the Beijing Opera Department of Tianjin opera school, and worked in Qingyi. He studied Qu Tianhuang, Zhang Zhilan, Li Jinqiu and other teachers. During that time, he studied Sibang's mother, Sanniang's son, yutangchun, Princess drunk, Duanqiao, sifan, Chunqiu Pei and so on. After learning from Meng Xianrong (Meng Xianrong), he studied the famous drama "suoling" of Cheng school.

He graduated in 1989. In the same year, he was admitted to Peking Opera Troupe of Beijing Military Region. Since 1990, Li Wenmin, a famous teacher of Cheng School in Beijing theater school, has studied the famous dramas of Cheng school, such as Dou'e yuan, three high fives and wujiapo, which has laid a solid foundation.

In 1993, recommended by China Peking Opera Cheng School Art Research Association, he became a close disciple under Professor Zhao Rongchen, Master Cheng Yanqiu's proud disciple and famous Peking opera performing artist, and got his true biography. Mr. Zhao personally passed on the famous dramas of Cheng school, such as tears of barren mountain, suoling, chunguimeng and Dou'e yuan.

He also studied under Wang Lanxiang, Xu Shiguang, Liu Yuntong and Zhao Xiuchun. In 1995, he was transferred to Beijing Opera Theater. During his postgraduate study in China Academy of traditional Chinese opera, he was educated by Li Jinhong, Xin Yanqiu, Li Qianghua, Wang Yinqiu and other professors.

Because of Professor Zhao Rongchen's exquisite, superb skills and careful teaching, Zhang Huoding's Cheng school art has made a qualitative leap, and his artistic skills have been greatly improved.

In 1994, Zhang Huoding successfully held her first special performance in Beijing, which fully demonstrated her artistic talent and won high praise from experts and the audience. Since the 1990s, Zhang Huoding has successively performed for Master Cheng Yanqiu and Professor Zhao Rongchen such as Suolin Nang, Biyu Zan, tears from barren mountains, Dou E yuan, Liu Yingchun, Ma Zhaoyi and other famous dramas of Cheng school.

In 1996, China National Records Corporation released the cassette of Zhang Huoding's famous song of Cheng Pai. Zhang Huoding is also invited to perform in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan. Her unique artistic charm is very popular.

From January to March 1998, the authoritative "Shenbao" of Taiwan Peking Opera published signed articles: "Zhang Huoding will become a big horn" and "Zhang Huoding is famous in Taiwan", which highly praised it.

achievement

Since 1994, CCTV and many domestic TV stations and radio stations have broadcast the live performance and singing of Zhang Huoding. More than 20 newspapers and media in China have published comments on Zhang Huoding highly praised and sincerely hoped by experts and fans.

Zhang Huoding with excellent talent and good savvy, soon grew into a leader in Cheng school. Its timbre is pure and quiet, its tune is low, its performance rhythm is bright, and its body is rich and colorful.

Zhang Huoding cut her long hair just now, in order to perform "Jiangjie" again. Her signature short hair is full of intellectual beauty. This is Zhang Huoding. Perfection of art is her eternal pursuit.

As one of the few leading figures with great artistic charm and personal charm in today's Beijing opera stage, "Cheng Qiang Zhang Yun" has long been passed down by fans, but Zhang Huoding has always been very low-key. The performer named the two special performances "inheritance and Transcendence", and she only agrees with the former. "Without solid inheritance, there will be no development. The art of the four famous dans has reached its peak. If we can sing out our own characteristics, we can be regarded as success, not surpassing."

Jiangjie is a ten minute love drama of Zhang Huoding. It realizes Master Cheng Yanqiu's long cherished wish to create modern drama and fills the gap of Cheng School's modern drama. The play was performed at the world art festival in Cologne, Germany, setting a record for Beijing Opera Cheng school to go abroad. In 2005, Zhang Yuan, a famous director, was influenced by Zhang Huoding's art and made the play into a movie with Symphony accompaniment. The performance of the North exhibition will be the first time that the play will be accompanied by live symphony. Zhang Huoding said: "the singing of" Jiangjie "is really good. It uses some musical elements of the opera to Lao Cheng's tune without any trace. Chengpai's singing style is quiet, euphemistic and reserved, but in order to create heroes, it needs something high and exciting, which is a challenge for my performance. " Zhang Huoding's innovation has been questioned by some opera fans, but with the passage of time, "red plum praise" and "embroidering red flag" have become new Cheng opera classics and spread among the majority of opera fans. In Zhang Huoding's view, the genre formula is dead, while the characterization is alive. The performance of modern drama should not lose its genre characteristics, but also meet the needs of the characters. Jiang Jie is a hero, but first of all she is a woman, a woman with multi-faceted character.

On October 2 and 3, 2007, Zhang Huoding, a famous Peking Opera performer of Cheng school, will once again challenge the large-scale theater in Beijing, launching two performances of "traditional and modern classic dramas" at Beizhan Theater: one is the first large-scale modern Peking Opera "Jiangjie" accompanied by Symphony live performance, and the other is the classic opera "suoling" which is never tired of watching.

Since Zhang Huoding's fans are all over the country, and the two performances are just scheduled for the 11th national holiday, many fans are given the opportunity to see the opera on the national day. For this reason, not only some Beijing opera fans delayed their plans to travel to Beijing, but also many foreign opera fans made advance booking and arranged their schedules in order to enjoy Zhang Huoding's wonderful performance. A "fire fan" who once watched Zhang Huoding perform in the Great Hall of the people at the beginning of the year said: "Zhang Huoding's performances in the Great Hall of the people are all oratorios. Although they are wonderful, they are not enjoyable. This time, we are waiting for the whole show! Each of the two shows has its own characteristics. I have no choice but to watch either one, so I have to buy them all and postpone the original schedule of traveling to Qingdao. "

Among Zhang Huoding's fans, there are not only many old fans who love Peking Opera, but also many young fans who especially love Zhang Huoding. They spread Zhang Huoding's performance information through online forums and blogs to express their love for Zhang Huoding, which reflects the new characteristics of contemporary Beijing Opera audience.

Red thread girl

On October 3, 2007, Cheng performance artist Zhang Huoding, who is known as "the first person in Liyuan", performed "Suolin bag" and "the legend of white snake" in Guangzhou. Under the stage, a silver haired old man, despite her physical exertion, insisted on watching the opera for two nights. She is the famous Cantonese opera performing artist hongxiannu. It turns out that although Zhang Huoding and hongxiannv are two leading figures in different types of drama, they have a deep friendship across different types and ages of Yue drama. Zhang Huoding has received many suggestions from hongxiannu in art, and hongxiannu often calls her to inquire about art and work. Because of their affinity with drama, they encouraged and helped each other artistically.

In suoling, according to the plot, Zhang Huoding appears in the form of voice over. With her call "Ah Mei Xiang --", the audience immediately recognized the special voice, and there was applause and cheers under the stage. After that, every part of her libretto was applauded over and over again. Xue Xiangling, who she plays, is reduced from a rich lady to a rich family's nanny. She accurately grasps the inner activities and characters of the characters in the play. Through her honest and graceful singing and acting according to the feelings, she highlights the character's emotional change from being proud and willful to sentimental. Her quiet moves are all beautiful and picturesque, and her explosive performance when she throws up her sleeves is also amazing.
