立足传统,革故鼎新——访黄梅戏音乐改革先驱时白林先生

Based on Tradition,Making the Renovation: Interview with Shi Bailin,the Pioneer of Musical Revolution of Huangmei Opera

与时白林先生的访谈主要围绕戏曲音乐传统与创新的关系问题展开。时先生回顾了20世纪五六十年代黄梅戏音乐改革的经历,认为创新意识、创作实力、对传统的掌握程度、与演员的合作等都是当时的创作取得成功的必要条件。时先生总结了自己半个多世纪的创作体会和"不重复自己"的创作理念,强调一定要努力跟上时代,同时强调创新不能脱离传统的基础。对于当下戏曲创作不能满足时代需求的问题,时先生认为关键是作品的质量没有上去,没有延续50年代的创新精神和紧跟时代的步伐。时先生也阐述了对黄梅戏的传统创腔模式、黄梅戏的"流派"、[平词]等唱腔形式的来历和演变等问题的看法。

The interview with Shi Bailin was centred on the relationship between tradition and renovation of opera music. Mr Shi retrospected on the history of the renovation of Huangmei Opera in the 1950s and 1960s, and regarded the creative thoughts, creative ability, the mastery of tradition and the collaboration with actors as prerequisites of a successful creation at that time. Mr Shi concluded his own creation experi- ences in the last five decades and the creative notion of ＂no copy of myself＂, emphasizing that it is necessary to catch up with the times and that the creation should be based on tradition. In regard to the issue that the current opera creation cannot satisfy the contemporary needs, Mr Shi thought that it is mainly because the quality of the work is not good enough, the creative spirits in the 1950s was not continued and the trend of times was not well followed. Mr Shi also illustrated his view on the forms of the traditional vocalization in Huangmei Opera, the schools of Huangmei Opera, the history and evolution of Pingci and other vocalization among other issues.
