《木兰》将登中国歌剧节再现巾帼史诗

12月16日，由文化部、江苏省政府主办，文化部艺术司、江苏省文化厅承办的“第三届中国歌剧节”开幕。民族歌剧《木兰》将于27日、28日两晚登陆江苏大剧院，目前两场的票都已提前售罄。昨日，主创在演出前排练间隙接受扬子晚报记者的采访。

《木兰》取材于中国家喻户晓的花木兰女扮男装“替父从军”的古老故事。江苏大剧院作为该剧出品方，集结名家荟萃的阵容。中国著名作曲家、中国交响乐团团长关峡担任作曲，中国音乐文学学会副主席、著名词作家刘麟担任编剧，著名导演李福祥执导。特邀芬兰著名指挥家、作曲家莱夫·希尔格斯坦担任指挥，中央军委政治工作部歌舞团著名歌唱家、国家一级演员雷佳主演木兰，中央军委政治工作部歌舞团青年歌唱家张英席出演刘爽将军，中央军委政治工作部歌舞团、中国交响乐团合唱团、圣彼得堡国家交响乐团联合演出。

这部剧令民族歌剧输出彰显了文化软实力和文化自信。中国交响乐团团长关峡告诉扬子晚报记者，大家总说“民族歌剧”，除了民族题材和民族唱法，词曲融合度，旋律优美，甚至传唱度，也是它的重要标志。西方歌剧传世的很多，但中国民族歌剧才70多年的历史，《白毛女》、《小二黑结婚》、《木兰》等经典不断发展。这个过程中，应借鉴西方歌剧的音乐形式。《木兰》做出的有益探索，是探索民族声乐如何进入咏叹调的意境和审美，让年轻人喜欢和接受，这些观众在欣赏这部剧的核心唱段时会感受到。

编剧刘麟说，“花木兰的故事已经被好莱坞拍成了动画片，还在筹拍电影，咱们用歌剧形式去表现它也是适合的。”刘麟表示，《木兰诗》中为何只有一句提到战争？“‘将军百战死，壮士十年归。’我理解，这还是反映了人们厌恶战争，渴望回乡过平民的生活。所以我们在剧中升华为‘和平颂’，剧词结构还用了马太福音，引出更国际化的音乐语言，这样不光中国人喜爱，外国交响乐团拿过作品，也马上就能上手。”

另外，在文学语言上，他表示，既更多体现了当时朝代的艺术语言和生活习惯，也有现代改写。
