Ballet "Return of Honglingyan" Ankang Gift July 1st

The keys are scattered, and the Han River dance rhyme. The Ankang Hanjiang Grand Theater, located on the coast of the Han River, shines brightly on the night of July 1st. On the occasion of the 103rd anniversary of the founding of the Communist Party of China, on the evening of June 30th to July 1st, the original ballet "Return of Honglingyan" of the Chongqing Ballet Company was performed twice in a row at the Ankang Hanjiang Grand Theater. This ballet, which restores the people's brave struggle under the leadership of the party from a unique perspective, has strong national feelings and offers sincere wishes for the party's birthday.

At the opening ceremony, ballet master Carlos Varcassell, starring Li Siyu and Yang Chencheng, shared with the audience the stories behind the scenes of dance drama creation, rehearsals, etc. During the Anti-Japanese War, Chongqing, as the command center of the Far East Anti-Fascist War, suffered a long and large-scale barbaric bombing. At the time of the survival of the nation, groups of people with lofty ideals resolutely went to the national disaster and expressed hope for the future of the motherland with their blood. "Return to Honglingyan" is based on Mr. Dai Ailian, a pioneer of Chinese dance art, and tells the story of patriotic overseas Chinese returning to their country to go to the front line of the Anti-Japanese War, using dance as a battle to inspire the people to fight and devote themselves to raising children in need. To demonstrate the Communist Party's firm belief and outstanding leadership, and to demonstrate the indomitable and tenacious will of the Chinese nation.

As a ballet with a red theme, "Return to the Red Mountains" not only reflects the unique poetic artistic conception of ballet to the greatest extent, but also cleverly integrates the characteristics of the Bayu region. The Chinese-style romance of the umbrella swinging in the mountain city's rain lanes and the radiance of the twelve zodiac lanterns make the dance both international and national, and bloom in a unique brilliance in the integration and collision of Eastern and Western cultures. Accompanied by the ups and downs of music, the dancers interpret a touching story of blood and tears, unyielding and resistance. The dance styles are different and beautiful, which not only contains the warmth that touches the heart, but also bursts with the spiritual power that stirs people's hearts.

The people of Ankang, who live in a happy and happy place, are immersed in the baptism of elegant art. Every time they change the venue, the audience bursts with thunderous applause. When the curtain came to a close, everyone was even more excited, and they stood up one after another, and bursts of screams and applause resounded through the theater. "I was very excited after watching it, and the artistic professionalism of the whole dance company is very high." Xiao Tao, secretary general of the Ankang Dancers Association, said: "The main creative team has an international perspective, and uses various means of service, light, sound and electricity to shape the characters very well. The local characteristics of Bayu culture are also very accurately grasped. This is really an innovative and excellent work. Thank you very much to the Chongqing Ballet for bringing high-quality masterpieces to Ankang, so that we have the opportunity to be influenced by art." The audience also said: "At the important moment of the Chinese Communist Party Founding Day today, such a dance drama is a spiritual inspiration and a visual feast for us. Many young audiences and children came to the scene today, and the wonderful performance allowed them to immerse themselves in it, which is very rare. It is very meaningful that the great spiritual power can be passed on in such a novel and vivid art form among generations of young people."

The mountains and rivers are prosperous, and the family and country share the same dream. Over the past 103 years, the Communist Party of China has led the people to create a historical feat that shines through the annals of history and wrote the most magnificent epic of the Chinese nation in thousands of years.
