本土音乐剧中“戏曲音乐剧”创作模式探究

On the Mode of Chinese“Xiqu Musical”Creation

“戏曲音乐剧”虽然是一个新概念,但这种融合中国传统戏曲元素与西方音乐剧形式的演出却可追溯到1940年代,后虽有所中断,但在21世纪初期重新发展并在舞台上占有了一席之地。“戏曲音乐剧”目前主要可归纳为“从传统戏曲中取材”“融合传统戏曲表演元素”“借鉴戏曲写意精神”“借鉴民族音乐形式”四种创作模式。当前,“戏曲音乐剧”创作中存在着中西音乐元素简单化“混搭”、表演的真实性和程式化融合难度高等问题。戏曲与音乐剧的融合并非终点,尽管探索中国原创音乐剧的过程曲折而漫长,然而值得等待。

“Xiqu Musical”are the performance that integrates Chinese elements of traditional Xiqu into the form of Western Musical.New concept as it is,it can be traced back to the 1940s.Despite of the later suspension,it resumed developing in the early 21st century and has had its place on stage.Nowadays“Xiqu Musical”have four general modes of creation:“getting materials from traditional Xiqu”,“integrating elements of Xiqu performance”,“drawing from the symbolic style of Xiqu”and“drawing from the form of traditional Chinese music”.At present,there exist some problems in the creation of“Xiqu Musical”,such as the simple“mixing”of Chinese and Western musical elements,and the difficulty in the integration between the authenticity of performance and stylization.The integration of Xiqu and Musical is not the end of the road.There is still a long way to go in the exploration of original Chinese Musical,but it is worth expecting.
