533. Every ballad has a story
The Dandelion Folk Music Festival has a completely different style from the previous Chinese Opera Music Festival.
Because the Opera and Music Festival is a first-time festival, it is actually no matter how well prepared it is, it is impossible to be as mature as the old music festival labels like Dandelion Folk Music Festival.
The Dandelion Folk Music Festival can be said to be the oldest folk music festival in China.
Folk ballads are different from other music. As we all know, even though folk ballads seem to be the mainstream of the market, the era of independent folk ballads has been a long time since then.
However, the group of folk fans is definitely not comparable to that of emerging opera and music fans.
Folk songs are different from rock, mavericks and madness.
In the usual impressions of folk singers, they usually do not shout loudly, make various emotional gestures, and most of them do not sing and dance.
The stage of folk songs usually does not cause a sensation like other types of songs.
That's not a folk song.
Of course, there is actually no complete or clear definition of folk songs.
But it has a unique charm.
If rock is ostentatious, then most folk songs are restrained.
Folk singers are usually in everyone's memory, holding a broken guitar and gently tugging, their voices are faint and hoarse, and they sing simple songs, but they are like telling a long-standing story left in the dust of time.
Or maybe a folk song is a story itself, and some stories end not perfectly, but the songs chanted will clearly record all the vividness and passion that have been passed down.
Under the dim light, chords are plucked lightly, singing in a low voice, time flows, slowly telling...
This is the folk song.
Of course, Dandelion Folk Music Festival is a relatively mature music festival.
Although the overall style is relatively restrained and literary, after all, when there are many people, it will still become lively.
Inside the Lilac Town.
It has the most unique performance area of the Folk Music Festival.
Unlike opera music festivals, Folk Music Festivals have areas specially set up like subway stations, under overpasses, and in corridors where street artists perform.
Here, there are many folk singers who come from afar, of course, most of them are folk singers. They will find a place, hold a guitar, sit on the ground, and then play old folk songs with a relatively soothing rhythm.
Visitors will stop here, and interestingly, most folk singers here do not know how to use microphone and microphone loudspeakers, and many of them play and sing.
So there is no need to worry about affecting others.
This has also become a unique landscape of the Dandelion Folk Music Festival.
When you come here, couples will find a performance area for folk singers who play old folk love songs and stop and listen to the song.
There will also be urban white-collar workers who give up their work and come here to relax, buy a cold drink, and come here to listen to music and relax.
Perhaps due to the influence of the general environment and atmosphere, tourists will deliberately lower their voices, and most of the time, they will be quieter when listening to music.
There are no big stage performances here during the day. Some folk songs in groups of three or three stop, sing a few songs improvised, or sang together with fellow fans to make friends through songs.
Folk songs are the more interesting they are. A folk song and a story are. The longer you listen to them, the longer you listen to them, you will feel addicted and you will not feel dependent.
Many people like to listen to folk songs, listen to those straightforward and simple words, clean guitar sounds, low and hoarse voices, and tell some trivial past events with a faint sadness or joy.
If you also like folk songs, you can go and read this story and listen to these songs. Ordinary stories are the most touching!
This is the folk song!
This is why Dandelion Folk Music Festival has become the number one brand in the folk music festival.
Chen Zhixian and Xia Zhiqiu were walking on the streets of Dingxiang Town.
Listen to the low whispers coming from my ears.
Perhaps these people are not as good as those professional singers, but each has their own flavor and story.
Moreover, there is another interesting rule at the Dandelion Folk Music Festival, that is, singers who have publicly performed singing are not allowed to sing on the street here.
Because this is a stage for civilians.
Once a celebrity singer appears here, it will certainly attract more people to watch, but it will actually cause the Folk Music Festival to lose something that should have.
However, soon, Chen Zhixian and Xia Zhiqiu were attracted to their attention.
There are many stalls here, and there are not many onlookers, but there is one place where there are obviously more onlookers than in other places.
Chen Zhixian and Xia Zhiqiu squeezed in.
The singer surrounded by the middle is a middle-aged man with a vicissitudes of life.
He was singing a very strange song.
He didn't sing well, but none of the onlookers made a sound.
Because although he sang poorly and even distracted in many places, he had a special feeling.
It makes people know at first glance that this is a person with a story.
The middle-aged man sang one song, but after the end, he didn't say anything, but continued to sing the second song.
To be honest, although the song is an original song, the quality is not very high and the melody is not so complete.
But for some reason, Chen Zhixian and Xia Zhiqiu stood there listening quietly!
Afterwards, the middle-aged man left.
Chen Zhixian and Xia Zhiqiu heard the story about the middle-aged man from the onlookers.
Middle-aged men are not professional singers.
The song he sang was written by his deceased son.
The story is very simple and ordinary. It tells the story of a child named "Yang", a leukemia boy who is so sensible that it is heartbreaking. That boy is the singer's son.
Yang has loved music since he was a child, but unfortunately his health does not allow him to become a singer.
So he began to learn to write songs and tried to write songs, which were written by him during his lifetime.
And this singer often appears during music festivals and sings these songs live.
Because this is his wish before his death for the child who left!
As life dies, Yang said: What a pity. I left this world so soon. Before I could leave anything, I was about to leave. It was really a pity. There were so many wishes that I had not yet realized...
He said: He wrote a lot of lyrics, but it seems that he has no chance to compose music. How great it would be if someone could make these music...
The boy deliberately left a wish about music, just to give his parents a support point to continue living, and just want his parents to live well.
For the sake of the child's wish, the father, who was originally a taxi driver, began to learn music, sing, and compose music. Even if the song he composed was not very good, this has become the only thing he could do for the son who had left.
He is fulfilling his wishes for his children.
