The captain and coach of this senior chorus is Liu Tiefan, a 65-year-old retired senior lecturer. He was holding a "peculiar" "songbook" --- that is, he was based on recordings, CD-ROMs organized more than 1,700 Chinese and foreign songs songbook, a thick book, enough to cover all the songs. It's a big, thick book that weighs 2.5 kilograms!
The joy of the "bucket room"
Coming to Liu Tiefan's home, which is an old flat building built after the 1976 earthquake, he said proudly that the building is particularly strong. He proudly said, this building is particularly strong! Absolutely earthquake resistant! A small unit, only more than forty square meters, two apartments are "dead outside", inside one of his and his partner's apartment, two single beds on the hut stuffed full, leaving only less than half a meter in the middle of the channel. Son's living room is not spacious, a single bed almost accounted for "half of the river", it seems that the 51-inch rear-projection large-screen color TV extraordinarily "protruding", coupled with a DVD player, VCR, tape recorders and other household appliances, is also full. Family of three but there are two big TV (Mr. Liu house and a 25-inch it), is also a "bucket room" in a big feature. Liu Tiefan laughed, the room can be small, the TV can not be big! Big screen color TV, look comfortable ah! The company's website is also a good source of information about the company's products and services, and the company's website.
It is really surprising that as a retired senior lecturer, he did not have a desk.
He said, your judgment is not right, I have a "desk" ah. He put a small folding table with short legs on the bed. I said, this is the "bed table" ah. He said, this is also my desk. It turns out that the more than 1,000 song scores he sat on the bed, on this small "kang table" to organize out.
The couple is particularly excited when it comes to singing and recognizing music, and his wife sings "Our life is sweeter than honey" with him as he hums a tune.
People who love to sing are always happy.
In this crowded "room", in the wall next to the door, I found an oil painting board, a copy of the oil painting to bring my eyes to the vast forest ...... This may be the "room" of the owner's inner world. "The owner of the inner world of the reflection.
He said, this is another of my hobbies, is in the round when I was in junior high school, a "dream", my son and his partner are supporting me, give me to buy canvas, brushes and oil colors. My son graduated from junior college and joined the workforce, and the year before last, he "bought out his working life" and studied in a junior college to receive a bachelor's degree, and he will soon get a diploma! We also have a big house, more than 80 square meters spacious! The city is located in Dagang in our campus, surrounded by a beautiful environment, fresh air.
Today's life makes them happy, tomorrow's vision makes them still happy.
Songs of infatuation
Liu Tiefan loved to sing since he was a child, and when he was in junior high school he met a very good music teacher, who laid a solid musical foundation for him. He had a good sense of music and could write a song sheet after listening to a song played on the radio twice. His teacher praised him for his musical talent and encouraged him to go to a conservatory in the future, but he graduated from high school and went to the Northeast Institute of Technology. The work has changed several times, and the songs are always with him.
After he retired from a junior college, he heard that there was a senior chorus in the community and actively enrolled in it. Soon, his musical talent in the team "outstanding". It turns out that this chorus is purely amateur level, basically the leader followed the "tape (tape or CD disk)" to learn, players followed the leader to learn, out of tune, out of tune, beat is not allowed, etc. is "commonplace", and it is no wonder, learning to sing even the song sheet is not, that's why I'm so excited about this. How can we do that? This is an embarrassing situation: on the one hand, the market is flooded with audio-visual products of singers, on the other hand, bookstores rarely sell the corresponding "songbook". Liu Tiefan then played to his strengths, and organized the songs we learned to sing into songbooks. This is a hard and meticulous work, need to listen to the tape or CD over and over again, a small "bed table" accompanied him through one after another passionate moments, organizing the songbook, he reached the point of intoxication, sometimes, in the middle of the night suddenly woke up, remembered that a certain syllable, note "translation" is not accurate, "the translation" is not accurate. "is not accurate, then put on the headphones, and then listen to, and then change, until it is accurate before you are satisfied.
He has broken three recorders trying to organize his songs.
He made photocopies of the organized song sheets, one for each hand, and taught his teammates to read music, starting with the ABCs of music. He taught singing meticulously, once, practicing chorus, a member of the team is always singing is not allowed, he asked people to come out of the line, repeated "teaching" for nearly ten minutes, making people very embarrassed. Afterwards, he realized that "hate iron is not steel" should also pay attention to teaching methods, can not hurt teammates' self-esteem. So, he took the initiative to "review" and improve the method, individual problems in private "discussion", the effect is better. Liu Tiefan said, the results are everyone *** with efforts to achieve, the old party members Sun Zhixin, big sister Zhang Xiuhua and so on are enthusiastic about serving everyone.
Husband and wife help each other
Liu Tiefan is the senior chorus team leader and coach, his partner Zhou Guizhen is the dance morning team leader and coach, two only enjoy volunteer (selfless dedication pennies) treatment of the "leadership", busy all day long.
As the saying goes, "brothers in battle, fighters in war," they support and help each other as a couple. Dance team to participate in the district auditions, rehearsal program, the old partner invited him to "guidance". After watching, he nonchalantly found a bunch of faults, what action is not neat, rhythm is not strong, lack of passion, etc., he said, singing and dancing are similar, to use the "heart" to sing, to dance, to be able to! To be fully committed, to jump with feeling, to use body language to show your passion, especially facial expressions and eyes, to "talk" can convey feelings, we all do, the whole dance will have a soul, can be exciting!
His "guidance" has made the members of the dance team more open-minded and better at dancing. When he watched "On the Fields of Hope", he always felt a little "not strong", where is the problem? What was wrong with it? He couldn't find it for a while. When he got home, he was still pondering over it during dinner, and suddenly he exclaimed, "Head shape! The problem lies in the shape of the head! He startled his wife and son. The old companion said, so what to do, can't let the guys uniform hair cut, right? He came up with a great idea --- each person a piece of headband coordinated with the costume, making the problem solved.
The level of the chorus team is more and more "professional", invited to participate in community summer parties, festivals and other performance opportunities, in order to render and set the mood, the need to sing and dance, whenever this time, the old man will pull the dance team to "help"! "Support. A friend suggested that, simply, you husband and wife cooperation, into a song and dance team how good!
Trust is priceless
The chorus team registered more than fifty members, often participate in the activities of the backbone of the thirty people, the oldest 74 years old, the youngest 47 years old, in addition to five or six male members, basically a "girl scout".
The team has any temporary task or activity, need to "phone contact", "party representative" Liu Tiefan is an old party member, there is awareness and "self-discipline" spirit, he felt a man to female members of the home phone call more than one. He felt that a man to call the female members of the home more inconvenient, coincidentally, there is a female member of the enthusiasm to serve everyone, he simply asked her to contact with everyone. Usually get along with teammates, may have more contact with someone, less contact with someone, more people talk more, so, "the captain favors so-and-so," and other rumors reached the ears of his wife Zhou Guizhen, she did not have a "suspicion" of her husband, and very confidently explained that we are not a "suspect", but a "suspect". And very confidently explained that our old Liu is not that kind of person, his character and the principles of the world I know the bottom.
The old partner's trust has resolved other people's misgivings, so that everyone knows that they love each other and have a deep affection.
Liu Tiefan said with deep feeling, the most valuable between husband and wife, the most rare is mutual trust, trust is priceless! My old partner's trust allows me to let go of my hands and feet to serve everyone. Now, we have a very harmonious and cordial relationship in the team, everyone for a goal - singing life!
With the support of the community council, a group of happy old people sing about life. They cultivate their emotions in singing life, delight their spirit in singing life, and health their body and mind in singing life. They sing with joy and happiness!
In many parks, residential neighborhoods in the social dance, rice-planting songs, senior disco, fan dance team is even less middle-aged and elderly people.
