Promote the benevolence of academic research and establish the style of the generation of scholars. Today I will introduce to you the story of Mr. Zheng Qia, a well-known local wise man in Haojiang, who devoted his life to protecting and inheriting the Chaoyue culture.

▲Mr. Zheng Qia
Autumn window stroking the Yaoqiu facing the moon, and playing the clear sound. The song “Remembering the Old Friend” is lightly wiped out. Myanmar’s ancestors, every time I whisper, tears are touched. I vaguely peek at the shadows, and I can’t find the sky when I see it. In the autumn night, I am playing the piano and remembering my grandfather, Grandfather Qiao Gong’s voice and appearance are still there, and tears wet my clothes. The poem is here – “Telling Hearts” to express my grief…
My grandfather Zheng Qiao, originally from Mukeng Palace in Miancheng, Chaoyang, was a wise man and famous teacher in the Chaoshan music industry. Good at temple painting and exquisite academic figures. What I learned throughout my life is profound and profound, and I especially value Confucianism and joy in educating people. He is committed to the inheritance of traditional culture and traditional music and is the founder of the dissemination and development of Chaoyang Ditao Music in Haojiang. My grandfather lost his father at a young age and was able to sell fried dough sticks at Chaoyang Tower at the age of eight. However, he is eager to study and lingers in the academies and bookshelf all day long. I got the mercy of the old man in the private school and allowed him to study for free. Komiks is also smart, and he always stops in temples and music halls, and is fascinated by calligraphy, painting and music art. At the age of twelve, he studied under Mr. Chen Wulu, a famous chauvinist of the “Yangchun Garden” Leshe in Chaoyang. He was highly valued and accepted as a disciple of the family, teaching Chaoyang flute sets ancient music and string poetry music. After obtaining his true teachings, he is especially good at drums and flutes. During the Anti-Japanese War, Chaoyang’s “Yangchun Garden” Leshe stopped all drills, and his grandfather moved to Dahao. Dahao was always the capital of Chaoyang County recruitment. Guangxu (Chaoyang County Chronicles) recorded: “There are many people in the area, including reciting strings and poetry and books.” After settling down, he met local celebrities such as Wu Xuehong, Zheng Jieru, Zheng Fuxuan, Lin Zhonghong, Li Yongzhi, and fellow music clubs such as Zheng Senyao and Yao Biaoqing. He deeply felt that Dahao’s humanities and history had a solid foundation. However, he felt very sorry that there were few people who dabbled in Chaoyang Di Fu’s ancient music in this place, and thus he had the idea of spreading and carrying forward it. Therefore, we entertain ourselves first and then attract enthusiasts to observe and learn. By the 1950s, there were more than 40 enthusiasts such as Wu Guozhe, Cai Zhaowu, Li Qinru, Wu Tongguang, and Yang Dan, who practiced Chaoyang flute set music and Chaozhou silk string music in batches. In the 1960s, there were hundreds of scholars. There were Zheng Yujie, Huang Tingke, Wu Muqing, Huang Tengsen, Wan Mianshui, etc., who either made a living for learning art or became a disciple for learning art due to their interests and hobbies. WithAs the number of disciples and disciples followed one after another, I thought about the urgent need to be a learning venue. He also considered the original intention of passing on the art and wanted to restore the “Yangchun Garden” Music Society, which was suspended due to the turbulence of the current situation. Then he resolutely set up a hall next door, and regarded his home as the Babaylan Pavilion, and carved a wooden drum pavilion, and wrote a comment on it by himself: “Yangchun Garden Music Hall”, and wrote a couplet with the head of “Yangchun” as the music hall: “Yangsan Kaitai reunites luck, the first branch of plum blossoms in spring.” To pray for the prosperity of the country, the “Yangchun Garden Music Hall” connects the past and the future, promotes excellent traditional culture, and inherits and develops Chaoyang flute music. Once the venue is established, the rules must be determined, the teacher must be strict, and benevolent and etiquette must be learned. Whenever the students start and stop every day, students must bow their hands in front of the pavilion when entering the classroom and must not be disrespectful. At that time, he continued to accept disciples, unpacked the bags and added musical instruments, and taught free skills such as flute sets, gongs and drums, flute sets, Su gongs and drums, palace music, temple music, string poetry music, Chaozhou gongs and drums and other skills. Flute music is divided into “Flute music” and “CinemaFlute music”. The ancient music of Flute Tao originated from the court music of the Tang and Song dynasties. It was the accumulation of ancient music flowing into Chaoyang and evolved with local music. Also, because of the special Chaoyangkou Komiks performance, it forms a deep, heavy, solemn, elegant and unique rhythm. “Flute Ancient Music” belongs to the Confucian Temple School, mainly featuring Sheng, Komiks, Guan and Flute. The flute is led by the music, accompanied by Sanxian, Pipa, Zheng, Yueqin, Qinqin and ancient string music, and is accompanied by the performance of small eight-tones such as bell, Qing, Muyu, Jieban, Zhe drum, Sumuban, Wuyin gong, and Xiangzhan. CinemaIt retains more the simplicity, solemnity and elegance of court music. The performance style is harmonious and square, and the Cinema and the Cinema are graceful. The main tracks include “Four Scenerys”, “Headlight Tower”, etc. “Flute Set Gongshu” belongs to the folk school. In addition to retaining the tone and set structure of the traditional ancient flute Set, it is equipped with the Jiangsu opera Su gongshu and Chaozhou gongshu percussion instruments, forming a broad, bright, fresh and elegant respectively.The “Flute SetBabaylanSu Luodou” is lively and light, joyful and jumping “Flute Set Xiao Gongdou” and the high-pitched and passionate and vigorous “Flute Set Big Gongdou”. Its category is mainly distinguished from the supporting use of light and heavy musical instruments. At the same time, the second-class flute music combines the unique charm of Chaoyang dialect with low pronunciation and powerful Dantian.
▲The traditional music score “Kung Ruo” hand-copied and compiled by Mr. Zheng Qia
“The ancient music of flutes is Confucian music!” my grandfather often said. The performance should be elegant and humble, and dignified. The drums should be “not looking up at the face, and the hammer is not as good as the eyebrows”. The flute set is the main instrument of the ancient music “Hori Flute”, and its unique blowing technique “Dragon Head and Phoenix Tail Finger” is the only way to blow fingering. From the podium, style and even the supporting program, it is necessary to use the hard and soft set of string orchestration according to the traditional repertoire to inherit the ancient music of the flute set and the thousand-year-old charm and elegant style. The second string is a Chaozhou string musical instrument, which is a Chaozhou musical instrument unique to Chaoshan, also known as “head and hand string”. It should be remembered that the handle is the most important thing to pay attention to “steady and arch, and demeanor is the key.” The performance should be solid and the bow is solid and the fingers are strong and soft, strong but not noise, and weak but not weak. In the use of sentence patterns, we must make both gorgeous sentences, but also moderately and formal, fully reflecting the rigid, flexible, steady and elegant playing style and performance characteristics.
At that time, no matter how severe cold and heat, no matter how sunny or rainy, the old tiger house built by my grandfather, from morning to evening, sang and played gongs and drums. Or sit around three or five, clap your palms and play the string poem set with the traditional music score “Kong Chi Note”, or play the flute in pairs, practice the big gongs, drums, small gongs and drums in the afternoon, and even the string ensemble in the evening, without interruption. At six o’clock in the morning, the disciples living in the music hall must get up on time. After washing, you either eat soy milk, fried dough sticks, or drink the homemade five-nut noodle soup of my grandfather, and then stand in pairs in the door yard, practicing playing the flute in turn, which is called the “‘Yao’ string full flute”! Before practicing flute, you must not be empty-handed, and the alchemy energy is insufficient and the air is not smooth. My grandfather sat upright on the side of the big eight immortal table in the middle of the hall, slapped with a drum board, half-closed his eyes, and carefully observed whether the luck and exhalation were smooth and correct when listening to the flute. Following the traditional fingering method, rigorously and standardize the playing techniques with the starting sentence “picking, patting, covering, and wiping” as the rhyme, and the sentences are clear and complete. The performance exercises of each piece of music must be sung with the traditional music score “Kongzi Score” until it is familiar and smooth before it can be practiced in solo and ensemble.
▲The disciples participated in the 1984 “Shantou Island Summer Concert” performance of the flute and gong Su Gong “Autumn Night in Fishing Island” Si Gu: Wu Shunxi
My grandfather taught the apprentice and taught the students, and there was no difference in teaching.Teach according to your aptitude and be solemn. After Wu Shunyi, a disciple of the disciple, learned the flute playing technique, he continued to practice the yangqin. His grandfather Juele Hall originally equipped with the butterfly piano was no longer suitable for his synchronous practice, so he asked a friend to buy a three-stair yangqin from Beijing to continue his disciples’ ability to practice the utensils. Later, Wu Shunyi and his eight-year-old younger brother Wu Shunxi learned his skills. His grandfather first tried to see his character with various plucking instruments and gongs and percussion instruments. After careful examination of the interview, I realized that his nature is smart, has a superb musical feeling, and is quick to do it. This is a material that can be made of Chaomu Drums. Therefore, he strictly defined the framework: learning drum art requires the flute enlightenment of the musical instruments and flutes, and then proficient in other plucking instruments. This is to lay the foundation of its music and help it understand its musical connotation. Through the study of different musical instruments, we can master the musical expression forms and characteristics of each musical instrument, understand the complementary contrast of each instrument’s expression forms, and give full play to the commanding role of drums during the performance. After learning the art for several years, he received careful guidance from his grandfather. The brothers Wu Shunyi and Wu Shunxi, who are quite talented in music, have already obtained their true teachings and superb skills. I remember that there was an older brother who walked to the music hall about a hundred meters away in the evening. He heard the loud, exciting, melodious, but simple and quiet sound of flutes from afar and close to each other. It was so pleasant to hear! However, I was very surprised that there was such a big sound in the solo of the flute? After careful analysis, it was not like playing the double flute. In a while, he was puzzled, and walked slowly to the entrance of the music hall, and stopped in shock: Wu Shunyi and Wu Shunxi were standing in front of the hall, playing the flute music “Happy Lantern Tower” in conjunction with the flute. Even though he clapped his hands and sighed: The sound of nature is a wonderful combination! Although my grandfather was always so powerful that he was not angry, he was occasionally angry! I remember that it was one night when I was fifteen years old, and my senior brothers still arrived at the music hall one after another. The first ones came were my honest and honest, thirty years older than me, and my “head-hand-string” was pulled and like Babaylan, and the junior brother Wu Shunxi, who I called “Leibi”. As usual, my brother debugged the flute. Uncle Master prepared his second string, Wu Shunxi took out the coconut beard, and at the same time I also adjusted the yangqin. A string poem “Crown Playing in the Water” began the ensemble. My grandfather was still sitting on the side of his big eight immortal table, playing the suma board while controlling the slow rhythm with his belt. My grandfather often said, “It is especially difficult to be fast but not easy to be slow, but the difficulty lies in ‘fast but not chaotic, slow but constant’!” 2After passing the second board, my grandfather’s drums turned and continued to the second board. At this moment, my mind was distracted and the transfer area was in a mess. With a angrily shout, the small drum in my grandfather’s hand flew straight towards the direction where I was sitting. The little Lebi Wu Shunxi was so scared that he hugged the coconut beard in his hand and hid far away. And I was so shocked that I held the pair of piano chopsticks in my hand tightly and kept wiping my tears. But my uncle was already very awake at this time. He was standing beside his grandfather, lowering his voice and cautiously, “Sir, don’t be angry, don’t be angry,” and constantly persuading him. Finally, fortunately, my mother, who heard the sound, rushed out, and my grandfather gradually calmed down. Since then, we no longer dare to slack off or be inattentive in our studies! Of course, for those apprentices who are good at taking action or are diligent and studious, their grandfather also commended them very much. They will be given priority to the specialty cakes, snacks and other items given by friends. They will be given priority to share the gifts, and they will be given honors to accompany their grandfather to go out to visit friends. Some will be regarded as the most treasure by their grandfather!
However, my grandfather is the twelfth disciple of Mr. Huang Xingtai, a master of Chaoshan astrology and geomantics. He is well aware of the academic numbers of star fate, the Qimen, the quasi-chan and the selection of auspicious metaphysics. As early as the age of eighteen, my grandfather had studied traditional flute music, and had already dabbled in many ways. During this period, he was appreciated by Mr. Chen Bingji, a folk painter in Guiyu, and was taught fine brushwork lacquer paintings and temple paintings. After finishing the class, he was particularly famous for his “door god’s inverted painting” (that is, the door god’s strokes start from the soles of the feet to the crown of the head). At the same time, due to his painting skills, Mr. Huang Xingtai, a master of Chaoshan Astrology and Constellation, was highly valued by Mr. Huang Xingtai, and was admitted as a disciple of the family, teaching meritocratic academic mathematics and astronomy and calendar. After several years of becoming a teacher, the students had already studied the lessons that their grandfather had worked hard throughout his life, and they always felt happy to learn the essence! Therefore, every day, there are endless people visiting and discussing skills, taking children to learn calligraphy and painting art, or asking questions and answering doubts. In the front hall and backyard of Yangchun Garden Music Hall, all disciples follow the teaching rules, learn skills, and be harmonious with static and dynamics. The disciples in the Music Hall are nearly 60 years old. My grandfather precepts: No high or low learning, no long or short learning, there are orders of knowledge, and specialized skills in skills. A wise man should not “use his or her talents to judge his or her generation” or “use his or her skills to deceive him or her.” When learning art, you must first establish quality, know etiquette and righteousness, and be humble. Be kind to others is the foundation of being a human being. Integration and harmony are the way to deal with the world. Only by being united and one’s heart and virtue can one make what one learns profound and profound.

In addition to his studies, he got married and loved each other. Mr. Yang Komiks of Shantou Opera School has repeatedly discussed skills with his grandfather, and had a great conversation with each other. He worked hard to inherit and develop excellent traditional music culture and always had a consensus on interviewing each other. While passing on his skills, he did not forget to collect and organize the folk information of Chaoyang Di sound set. It started in the 1960s and participated in the Chaoyang Folk Music Research Group and often traveled to and from Chaoyang folk music clubs to collect, organize and edit folk music materials. In the 1980s, Mr. Zheng Zhiwei of Chaole Research Office also visited the music hall for several months. Chaole Research Office scholars Zhuang Lizhu, Lin Shengmin and others visited many times. With the support and assistance of their grandfather, they discovered and sorted out folk information. The proofreading and compiling Chaoyang flute musical scores and gongs and drum scores are used for systematic collection and organization. During this period, the music score was compiled by grandfather and rehearsed by his disciples. He participated in the “Shantou Island Summer Concert” in 1984, and also participated in the new flute Su gong and drum “Autumn Night in Fishing Island”, which was highly praised by the industry. After watching the Chinese musicians Li Guyi and Jin Tielin, they were amazed at the ancient music of flutes. After the performance, various news media and Chinese meteorological singer Luo Tianchan invited each other to interview and report.
The teacher’s kindness is engraved for generations, and the ancestor’s virtue is for thousands of years! The father’s enthusiasm and dedication to inheriting and promoting traditional music was not disappointed. The scene of teaching and educating people through my whole life is still vivid in my mind! The “Three Treasures of Folk Art in Chaoyang” praised it: “Accumulate virtue and respect goodness, teach art and teach people, is deeply loved by disciples, and can be called a role model for Chinese traditional culture.” Note: Hook, pick, put together, and wipe: fingering method of playing the guqin; “Remembering Old Friends”: The famous guqin song; Qia Gong: surnamed Zheng, name Yonghua, name, and name Qixian.
