The song "Ode to a Pear Blossom" is based on the Peking Opera's "Siping Tune", which maintains the meaning of Peking Opera and the rhythm of the Mei School, but at the same time incorporates modern music, making it catchy without losing the flavor of Pihuang. Mr. Mei Baojiu has been working hard to promote this piece, and personally sang it at the Golden Hall in Vienna.

However, few people know that the songwriter Yang Nailin wrote the song "Ode to Pear Blossoms" in fact only spent one night time. 2001 when the creation of the rehearsal of the "Tang Dynasty Noble Consort", Yang Nailin is one of the members of the songwriting team, but he is responsible for the orchestration, the composition of another person. However, when it came to the rehearsal time, something unexpected happened - the original group's composer encountered a special situation and could not continue to participate in the creation.
Just when everyone was in a hurry, Mei Baojiu found Yang Nailin, hoping that he would compose the music: "Yang Nailin, you have to take up this task." The first time I saw this, I was in the middle of a long journey, and I was able to get to the top of the list, and I was able to get to the bottom of the list. However, at this time, the time left for Yang Nailin is not much, November 2 will be premiered in the Shanghai International Arts Festival, and as a teacher of the Conservatory of Music, there are still a lot of classes to be taken, and can not be three days to take a leave of absence. He had no choice but to take advantage of weekends or holidays to fly from Beijing to Shanghai to work with the director's team.
So, 18 years ago, on a Friday in August, Yang Nailin came to Shanghai, holding the lyrics of "Ode to a Pear Blossom" written by Weng Siren and pondering them over and over again, and on Saturday night, when it was pouring rain outside, Yang Nailin was stuck in his room, and boiled the score. After returning to Beijing, Yang Nailin immediately sang "Ode to Pear Blossoms" to Mr. Mei Baojiu, who liked it as soon as he heard it. Mr. Mei Baojiu has been working hard to promote this piece, and personally sang it to the Golden Hall in Vienna.
And the story of composing the music for "Noble Consort of Tang Dynasty" is also full of drama. The cast and crew urgently transferred seven composers from Shanghai, Jiangsu and Zhejiang to work around the clock in the hotel to get the orchestration out. At that time, the score was also written to send a piece of writing, while rowing and writing, the score is not, the crew can only dry wait.
The hard work eventually paid off, and the premiere of The Great Tang Concubine was a huge success, and Ode to the Pear Blossom was a huge hit. Recalling the past, Yang Nailin said with deep emotion, without the "Tang Noble Consort", there is no Yang Nailin today. However, if not for Yang Nailin's in music, diligence, excellence, forge ahead, I believe there will not be popular "Ode to a Pear Blossom", there is such a magnificent "Datang Guifei".
Yang Nailin believes that because the Conservatory of Music has given himself professional knowledge of composition, the troupe's experience of playing the Peking Opera music so that he understands the essence of the Peking Opera music, so that the soundtrack of the Great Tang Dynasty Concubine truly "East meets West", water and milk blending, instead of sounding like "two layers of skin". The first is to make the soundtrack a true blend of Chinese and Western music, rather than sounding like "two layers of skin".
