中国歌剧的本土化成长

Developing Chinese opera on its native soil

歌剧从意大利走出来,400多年间,已成为令全世界为之肃然起敬的艺术样式。如何继欧美之后,使之在中国本土化成长,是摆在中国歌剧创作者面前不容回避的使命性任务。首先要厘清的,是“中国歌剧”这个概念的外延和内涵,不要打逻辑仗。

Opera was born in Italy. For more than 400 years, it has become a much-respected artform. But how can we nurture this tradition from Europe and America on Chinese soil, making it our own? This is the task of everyone involved in the creation of opera in China, in the making of excellent original works.
