Abstract

This research examines Ding Huan’s The Light of the Mountain, scrutinizing its amalgamation of traditional Jinqian Clapper performance elements with modern themes. The study analyses the impact of rhythmic patterns, vocal styles, and narrative structure on the storytelling of The Light of the Mountain, which depicts the commitment and resilience of a volunteer teacher in rural China. This study utilizes a practice-led research methodology to critically examine Ding Huan’s The Light of the Mountain, emphasizing the synthesis of traditional Jinqian Clapper performance elements with modern themes. The investigation demonstrated that the rhythmic foundation created by the bamboo clappers serves to drive the narrative forward while simultaneously emphasizing important thematic elements, such as those presented by Yun Li Bai and Ban Qiang. This research offers a performance guideline for presenting The Light of the Mountain with a vocal ensemble, emphasizing the need to balance traditional clapper styles with contemporary storytelling techniques. The study seeks to contribute to the preservation and evolution of Jinqian Clapper as a dynamic cultural art form by examining and contextualizing these elements, thereby enabling it to convey complex narratives in contemporary settings.

Abstract

Luan Kai's work has notably influenced contemporary Chinese music, contributing to the evolution of this genre within a global framework. His works are extensively performed in China and have achieved notable international recognition. Nevertheless, there is a scarcity of research focusing on the particular vocal techniques utilized, including modal interchange and extended interpretation that integrate Eastern and Western practices. A study is required to examine the execution of ornamental figures and expressive markings authentically, taking into account the integration of traditional Chinese and Western vocal practices. This study examines one of his well-known songs, 我的深情为你守候 (My love is waiting for you), which highlights his distinctive compositional style that integrates traditional Chinese musical elements with contemporary harmonies and orchestration techniques. This study is conducted based on practice-based research. This study aims to enhance the academic understanding of music performance concerning Luan Kai's "我的深情为你守候." Exploring these areas enables scholars and practitioners to equip performers with the essential tools and understanding required to address the technical and expressive demands of the piece, while also fostering collaboration and mutual understanding between Eastern and Western musical traditions.
