浅说中国歌剧的观众养成

Audience development for Chinese opera

中国近现代的戏剧观众,一直浸濡于传统戏曲的耳目之娱中。这为中国民族歌剧的生成与发展,提供了坚实的文化心理基础。自歌剧《白毛女》始,到上世纪五六十年代,一大批红色经典如《洪湖赤卫队》《江姐》《红珊瑚》等民族歌剧脱颖而出,一时蔚为大观,深刻地影响了那一代人,培养出了一大批的民族歌剧的音乐之耳。人们口口相传、耳熟能详。

The transplanting of Western operatic traditions does not effectively nurture or develop local audiences in China.We must rely on the originality of our own artistic traditions,building operas rooted on our own cultural soil.
