1 1 September 12 at 7 o'clock in the morning of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the rising sun spread warmth all over the earth in the clouds. The teachers and students of the Composition Department of Xi 'an Conservatory of Music bathed in golden sunshine, boarded three red buses in an orderly manner as a group and began a long-awaited three-day trip to southern Shaanxi.
Known as "the south of the north, the north of the south", southern Shaanxi is located in this beautiful land of 33 north latitude, where kind, brave and hardworking people live and sing a wide variety of lush plants and crops-delicious mountain bamboo shoots, bitter green tea and elegant orchids. People say that Shangluo in Qinling Mountains is the most beautiful, and Shangluo in southern Shaanxi is the most beautiful.
At noon on the 4th, the leaders of Jinsixia Management Committee warmly received the teachers and students of the collecting group from afar, and held the unveiling ceremony of the collecting base of Jinsixia, the department of composition. The firecrackers sounded in the sky, the tea ceremony performance with both rigidity and softness, and the slightly drunk fresh air immediately intoxicated the new party.
Having tasted the authentic food in southern Shaanxi, Cai Feng and his party entered the beautiful Golden Canyon with great interest. The water is flowing, and the legend in Bailong Cave is more than ten meters long, which makes people nervous. There are two peaks in Lover's Valley, just like two lovers staring for a long time, which makes people feel worried. There are waterfalls that hit rocks, peaks that fight ghosts and gods, strange stone mats, lush forests, green water and thick soup, and bursts of laughter.
Teachers and students miss the canyon, marvel at the charming charm of the wonderful Qinling Mountains, and feel the spiritual shock brought by the beautiful scenery of Shangnan.
The beauty of southern Shaanxi lies not only in mountains and rivers. On the evening of 4th, at the invitation of Shangnan County leaders and Shangnan County Cultural Bureau, the tea-picking team tasted the famous and mellow shangnan tea at the foot of the mountain. The leaders of Shangnan County, Cultural Bureau and cultural celebrities got together with our teachers and students to talk about Shangnan folk customs, folk songs, historical allusions and music creation, which made them happy and had a wonderful evening.
On the morning of 5th, the collecting team went to Zhao Chuan, an old revolutionary base area. Enthusiastic Zhao Chuanren surrounded everyone and came to the playground of Zhao Chuan Middle School, bringing them beautiful local folk songs.
Sometimes rough, sometimes smooth. Applause, cheers and singing for everyone. From the 70-year-old man to the children under the age of 10, the teachers and students of Zhao Chuan Middle School also actively joined in and presented wonderful songs for everyone, and the atmosphere reached a climax for a while.
Using the delicious lunch box carefully prepared by Zhao Chuan Middle School, the collecting group and its party came to Xianghe Primary School to donate love materials for the students there and spent unforgettable time with local folk singers, teachers and students.
With a sad heart, Mining Group embarked on the last day of the trip. On the morning of the 6th, teachers and students laughed and enjoyed the beautiful mountains and waters along the way, and came to Shenglong Village in Fushui Town, where it was said that Li Zicheng, the king of Zhuang, once lived. Under the leadership of local leaders, everyone climbed the castle peak, visited historical sites and looked far away. They are full of nostalgia for the past, have a sudden ambition to forge ahead, laugh at the past and the present, and imagine the future, which has cultivated their sentiments and inspired their fighting spirit.
Beautiful and rich in water, it is a hot land where parents once shed youthful passion and sweat. In the tea garden developed by the educated youth, everyone hummed the southern minor "Tea Picking Butterfly" to learn about tea picking and tea planting and production from local leaders. They can't help but feel the profoundness of the tea ceremony in the motherland and the infinite wisdom of their ancestors.
I can't help but feel proud that I am a descendant of Chinese civilization, and I am deeply and infinitely proud that I have the honor to study art and learn music and composition that can let more people know China's infinite treasures.
Between the tea trees, there are long mountains and rivers in the distance, and there are so many beautiful mountains and rivers looming between the clouds. As a latecomer, how can you not love wholeheartedly? As latecomers, how can we not be proud of it, proud of her, how can we not want to protect her, how can we not praise her with the melody boiling in our chests?
Still very excited, the composition department went to Shangnan for a tour and returned to school on the evening of the 6th 19. During this trip, everyone enjoyed their body and mind, broadened their horizons, and increased their knowledge and humanistic cultivation. Everyone is eagerly looking forward to expressing their true happiness with their own music and sincere heart.
