With a leap of three feet, a split in the air, a red fan and a pair of water sleeves, Ma Jiaolong, a Chinese dancer who teaches in Britain, has repeatedly amazed local audiences with the style of Chinese classical dance in Tower Bridge and Trafalgar Square in London. Xinhua news agency, Beijing (reporter Shang Xu, Yang Jun, Si Yuan) dressed in a Han suit, covered with light gauze, a Chinese knot and a zither, Peng Jingxuan, a Chinese "zither girl" who studied in France, once again impressed local audiences with the charm of traditional Chinese music on the banks of the Seine River in Paris and in the street squares of Bordeaux. What is national style? "I think the national style is a state-owned style based on Chinese traditional culture and art and created through modernization." Ma Jiaolong answered the reporter a few days ago. Peng Jingxuan, a seven-year-old zither student who has studied in France for many years, said that her original intention of performing zither on the streets of France is actually very simple, that is, "sharing beauty and music", "using zither as a bridge to let more French know and understand our musical instruments". Recalling her first experience of performing on the streets of a foreign country, Peng Jingxuan said that she was still quite nervous at that time. The songs she chose were some traditional Chinese zither songs, such as "high mountains and flowing water", "fishing boat singing evening", "in the later performances, I added some familiar Western songs to play them in Chinese style". "Every time I perform, the audience's response is very positive, which makes me very encouraged," she said. "There will be a young lady painting me in the distance, and then give the painting to me, saying that she is very happy to meet me in a beautiful afternoon; there are also some grandparents who, after listening to me, say that they can feel the mountains and rivers of China from the music, and very much want to have a chance to visit China in the future." Ma Jiaolong, a 12-year-old dancer from the youth dance troupe of Beijing Dance Academy, was sent to London a few years ago to teach Chinese classical dance. He said that it was a coincidence to start shooting dance videos on the streets of Britain. At that time, affected by the epidemic, he had to teach online and train at home every day to maintain muscle strength and flexibility, but the space at home was limited and the dance movements could not be performed. By chance, he shot a dance video in Greenwich Park, a popular tourist attraction, which was loved by many people. He started his "video shooting" journey. "Now, making sharing videos has become a part of my life. The most important thing is that it is a good way to show Chinese classical dance to more audiences, especially overseas audiences," Ma Jiaolong said, "Each of my videos is not actually performed in the street, but as a Chinese, I hold traditional Chinese props, such as red fans and water sleeves, which are integrated with Western scenery and architecture, and also like a dialogue in different ways." Ma Jiaolong said that his British students are not professional dancers. In future teaching, he hopes that they will not simply imitate dance movements, but learn Chinese classical dance as a way to understand Chinese traditional culture. For the future, Peng Jingxuan hopes to continue to enjoy street performances and introduce zither to more friends. (outlook new era)
