胡雁:似曾相识雁归来

初冬的晚上,“歌声飘过30年·胡雁独唱重唱音乐会”在浙江音乐学院音乐厅激情唱响,著名女高音歌唱家胡雁携手海归低男中音歌唱家孙禹,以及她的学生们,在两个多小时的音乐会上,为观众用德语、法语、俄语、意大利语和中文献上了中外艺术歌曲和歌剧咏叹调。而下半场学生们献上的中国歌剧《原野》的主要咏叹调和重唱片段,是胡雁近5年的教学中最值得书写的。

从杭州转塘浙音路1号的学校到位于富阳区的家,从春绿、秋黄到冬枯、萌芽,四季轮回,胡雁在这条320国道来来回回3年多。她不是在学校上课,就是在家辅导学生声乐,很少进城耍子儿。作为一名杭州土著,去西湖边基本上靠导航。

从2010年受母校杭州师范大学邀请经常回来指导学生,到2014年胡雁正式决定离开东方歌舞团调入浙江音乐学院声乐歌剧系当老师,迄今已经5年。周末去陪陪妈妈,用炖锅慢火炖红枣本鸡,就是很享受的周末生活,鸡是74岁的妈妈从余杭亲戚家捉来的走地鸡。离妈妈更近些,是她选择回乡的重要理由。

时光倒回到1994年,26岁的雁子羽翼渐丰,扑打着翅膀,迫不及待地飞离她歌唱事业起步的杭州歌舞团,到日思夜想的中国东方歌舞团担任一名独唱演员。“京漂”的甘苦只有自己知道,20年搬了8次家,她哭过,想回家,但她还是挣扎着扑打着翅膀,奋斗不止,唱成了“东方夜莺”,也被媒体称为“东方莎拉·布莱曼”。

歌声飘过30年。25年前我通过采访与她相识,一直默默为她喝彩,遥望她舞台上的辉煌。最近一次见面,是坐在浙江音乐学院的标准音乐厅,欣赏她“蓄谋已久”的独唱重唱音乐会,这离上一次她的独唱音乐会,已经过去了8年。

入冬了,尽管太阳高悬,坐在她位于富阳区家中的二楼阳台上,我还是冷。雁子贴心地拿来一件披肩给我,性格中已有几分北方人的豪爽和大大咧咧,但还是说一口悦耳的杭州话,间杂一阵银铃般的大笑。没有舞台妆,她素颜,居家运动衣,长发披肩。我们的话题就从这场音乐会谈起。

一場音乐会的呈现,要感谢太多有缘人

雁子,恭喜你演出成功。你已经功成名就,当导师了,为什么还要在52岁的年纪办一场音乐会?

为了教学相长。展现在音乐会上的歌曲基本上是我熟悉的但没有仔细雕琢的,那么到现在这个年纪,对歌曲的处理与年轻的时候是不一样了,音乐会是最好的历练,所以这几年心里一直在想这件事,付诸行动大概是半年前吧。我现在的体力和声线还在峰值,专业是最成熟的,举办音乐会也是锻炼自己的意志吧。

这次音乐会曲目上半场我有7首独唱,另外3首是与孙禹老师的歌剧《原野》重唱。下半场则是我辅导学生排练的歌剧《原野》的咏叹调和重唱片段,这比我个人训练还要费心思,就像一只老母鸡一样,催着小鸡们快快长大。

我注意到舞台上没有放置话筒,是不是美声唱法都这样的?

音乐厅的舞台台口有收音设备,我们美声是不用话筒的,这是个体力加脑力的活。半年前开始我每天做仰卧起坐、慢跑。我经常对学生说,专业好,还要体力好,像我的老领导原杭州歌舞团副团长陈红冰,她70岁了,还每天坚持快走,坚持练声,皮肤可好了。这次音乐会她也来现场了,我要向她学习。

我注意到你这场音乐会节目单上印有两行名言:没有音乐,生活将是一场错误——尼采;对视舞台为生命的歌唱家来说,当语言结束的时候,就是音乐的开始——德彪西。可以说说你学美声路上,谁是影响你最深的人吗?

我大学的启蒙老师是杭州师范大学音乐学院的高佩辉副教授,她今年85岁了,对我影响最深。她不但是我的声乐老师,而且还是我的艺术指导。在校期间,高老师经常为我加课,这为我以后的演唱打下了一个非常好的基础。我至今还保留着30年前毕业音乐会演唱的录音,难得的是她亲自登台为我伴奏。前几年高老师装了心脏起搏器,她容易激动,我就劝她不要来

听我的音乐会了,但我给她看了回放视频。我很感谢她,视她为我的人生导师。当然,我到东方歌舞团后,还遇到过更多的名师点拨,如我探索美声唱法与中国戏曲音乐的演唱方法的结合,在舞台上演唱了许多国外著名的民歌、电影插曲、音乐剧以及中国民歌,得到了葛朝祉、郭淑珍、吴其辉、唐放元、潘丽君等多位名师的指点。更重要的是名师教我学习方法。比如郭淑珍教授就要求我们,如果唱意大利歌或其他语种的歌曲,要每天先读两三百遍歌词,舌头顺了再去唱。这种良好的习惯现在延续给了我的学生。

所以你2011年、2013年两次去了意大利威尔第音乐学院进修?

是的,意大利是西洋音乐的重要诞生地之一。初学时好比是在一只笼子里,各种东西锁住你,按部就班,慢慢熟练形成习惯后,就可以飞出笼子了。飞上去后就不是民航小飞机,而是穿透大气层的宇宙飞船了。唱到那个境界,有身轻如燕、直上云霄的美,妙不可言。 看你膝盖上有擦伤,听说是音乐会后第三天出门倒垃圾的时候摔的?

音乐会当晚一直很亢奋,无数束鲜花围绕着我,有同事领导送的,好朋友送的,学生们送的,抱着只顾傻乐,到了凌晨还睡不着,像新婚似的,觉得这些花都特别的美。第二天还兴奋着,到第三天,才觉得困极了,浑身乏力,晚上出家门倒垃圾,脚一软,摔得不轻。唉,真的是走路都会睡着。

我注意到你的音乐会助演嘉宾著名歌唱家孙禹,也是音乐会的艺术总指导,你们是老朋友吗?

认识时间不长,是我们声乐歌剧系请他讲“文学与歌剧”后认识的。我特别敬佩他的才气。他还是中国作协会员,创作过自传体长篇音乐小说《悲剧英雄》《漂泊英雄》等,还编过歌剧文学剧本。我在给学生排练《原野》时,得到他很多的帮助,尤其在音乐会前的10天排练,学生们无论是演唱,还是对人物的理解、台词的准确性,都有了更深层面的认识和提高。 所以一场音乐会的呈现,要感谢的人太多太多,从观众到演职人员,都是我生命里有缘分的人。

从名角到老师,学生叫她“胡妈妈”

你在北京都20年了,是怎么想到回杭州當老师的?

我这人骨子里很不安分,年轻的时候更是,当时想一辈子守着西湖多没出息。2006年8月,我父亲在杭州病逝的时候,我远在新疆演出,没有见上最后一面。奔丧结束后返回京城,我骤然想到了“父母在,不远游”。

大概是2010年前后吧,我受母校杭州师范大学音乐学院邀请,经常回来上课,2011年我还被聘为杭州师范大学“钱塘学者”讲座教授。杭州很舒服,但北京有我的事业,我一边留恋着,一边纠结着。浙江音乐学院一筹建,我就听从内心的召唤回家了,把工作重心从舞台转到了教学上。我喜欢北京的艺术氛围和一帮朋友,现在只有寒暑假才有机会去北京过过耳瘾、见见朋友。平时我就两点一线,宅得很,学校的课太多了,一周我有20多节课。

别人见到我说,你怎么没有北京大腕的做派啊,我哈哈一笑过去了。我心里还是有些小骄傲的,除了岁数上去,我的性情没有变,我还是西湖边飞出来的那只傻雁子。

湖南卫视推出过一档原创新形态声乐演唱节目《声入人心》,让普通人认识了美声唱法和背后的歌者。你平时是怎么当导师的?

我也关注到了《声入人心》,感谢它为我们普及了美声唱法。

我对学生说,天生好嗓是老天爷给你赏饭吃,不要辜负了,你经常要想想唱什么样的歌,要成为什么样的人。

学生们都叫我胡妈妈,因为我自己没有孩子,而我心里又很喜欢孩子。现在的我就是好好教学,好好歌唱,多点时间培养学生,见证他们的成长和蜕变。

要说培养好苗苗,就是无心插柳和有心栽花两种。我的秘诀是,多栽柳多栽花,总有一朵花会开,总有一枝柳会摇摆。浙江音乐学院起点较高,设施一流,为学生单独训练的琴房就有200多间,还能通过交换生途径尽可能多地为学生提供出国深造的机会。

这5年我还是蛮拼的,我很少进城,多位学生在省青年歌唱家大赛暨金钟奖选拔赛、全国“孔雀杯”高等艺术院校声乐大赛、全国艺术院校歌剧、声乐展演等专业赛事中斩获佳绩。 就说我的学生梁齐蓉吧,她在音乐会下半场的《原野》中扮演焦母,2018年在我导演的《雷雨》中饰演繁漪,这两张剧照放在一起,蛮有意思的,一个本科三年级的学生能演跨度这么大的角色,难能可贵。小梁是山西平遥人,2017级本科生。姑娘是女中音的声线,属于老天爷赏饭吃的那种,但是后天更努力。刚进学校,她毛遂自荐来找我,要当我学生。我说我的名额满了,她说就当旁听生好了,太会粘人。她是在钢琴自习室最用功的学生。晚上练完自习,就去操场跑圈,很自律。这样的金子,到哪里都会闪光! 你家离市区40多公里,这里很冷清,住得惯么?

我现在是要避热闹,睡在富春山下,失眠都没有了,一觉睡到天亮。难得的休息天,我就东摸摸西弄弄,半天辰光一歇歇就过去了。唉,都半个月没有去看妈妈了! 未来有何新打算?

最近几年就是好好教学,坚持学习语言,这个很重要;还有就是准备下一场音乐会,如果能演一两出歌剧最好。哈哈。

我和她面对面或微信聊着,有一搭没一搭。她不造作,坦陈她“京漂”生活的苦痛,装修房子时做预算的斤斤计较;她有强烈的臧否,喜欢的人就拥抱那人的所有,看不惯哪个,就觉得周遭的空气都让人恶心;她心眼浅,因为数学不好,所以算计能力弱;她很后悔,说自己没定心,小时候没有多读闲书,所以她尊重学者,尊重文化。世故如我,怕她受伤,但转念一想,在简单面前,我想多了。

Hu Yan, a professor at the Vocal and Opera Department of Zhejiang Conservatory of Music (ZJCM), held a concert on November 6, 2019 in commemoration of the 30 years of her singing career. The concert was held at a concert hall on the campus of ZJCM. Her colleagues and students also performed.

She world have held such a concert in Beijing hadn’t she come back from Beijing to Hangzhou in 2014.

In 1994, the 26-year-old Hu Yan, then a soprano at Hangzhou Song & Dance Ensemble, left Hangzhou for Beijing. She became a soprano at the Oriental Song & Dance Ensemble. For her, Beijing was a bigger theater and she had better career opportunities. She was right.

In her 20-year-stay in Beijing, she established herself as a brilliant vocalist and appeared in a great number of performances. However, it wasn’t easy for her to make it in the country’s capital. In the 20 years, she moved eight times. And she missed Hangzhou, her hometown.

The first step she took for her journey to home occurred in 2010 when Hangzhou Normal

University, her alma mater, invited her to teach student vocalists. In 2011, she was engaged as a guest professor. As a Hangzhou native, she naturally felt at home in Hangzhou, but Beijing was the center of her career. She was torn apart by her homesickness and her career center. She made up her mind after learning that the province was going to set up a higher education institute for music. Since she came back in 2014, she has shifted her career focus from performing to teaching. She settled down in Fuyang, now a district of Hangzhou, as ZJCM is located closer to Fuyang than to downtown Hangzhou. The conservatory started operation in 2016. Over the past three years, she has traveled between home and workplace by National Highway 302 numerous times. She teaches at ZJCM and she gives private lessons at home. She almost has no time for a visit to downtown

Hangzhou. Though a native of Hangzhou, she now needs a car navigation system to tell her how to get to the West Lake.

I first met Hu Yan 25 years ago. The other day, I visited Hu Yan at her home in Fuyang. We spent a lot of time catching up. I learned some more details about her career and her decisions to go to Beijing and come back home.

She took an advanced course in the Giuseppe Verdi Conservatory of Music in Milan, Italy respectively in 2011 and 2013. The study there helped her a great deal.

Her last concert in Beijing took place in 2011. It was the 16th year of her stay in the capital. In 2019, the 52-year-old soprano thought it was time to hold another concert. To prepare herself, she jogged and did sit-ups every day for six months prior to the concert. As a vocalist, she uses no acoustic equipment to get her voice through to audience members at the back of a concert hall. So she needed to be physically fit even though she believes she is still at the height of her career.

The concert gave her an opportunity to translate her new insight into her singing. Though

familiar with all the songs she was going to perform at the concert, she thought she needed to work at the songs with the care and precision of a sculptor. After all, the last concert was eight years ago and now she understood more about and about the songs she wanted to sing perfectly.

In our chat at her home, Hu Yan naturally mentioned those who had helped her career. Her mentor Gao Peihui, now 85, helped her get a solid foundation while the young vocalist studied under Gao’s tutelage at Hangzhou Normal University so many years ago. During her stay in Beijing, she was lucky enough to have more teachers such as Ge Chaozhi, Guo Shuzhen, Wu Qihui, Tang Fangyuan, and Pan Lijun. She learned a great deal from these masters. Many a method she uses nowadays to teach her students are originally from her masters.

And Hu Yan is proud of ZJCN and proud of her students. In her eye, ZJCM is a very good school. It has a full range of state-of-the art facilities including nine concert halls, 102 rehearsal halls, 842 practice rooms and six top-notch recording studios. Some of her students have won top prizes at various national competitions

Her concert in November 2019 was a success and she was very happy and excited for days

afterwards. When asked about her future plans, she said she will continue to focus on teaching in the next few years. She will continue her language studies: the Russian, the Italian, the English and the French, for languages are a must for opera singing. She wants to appear in some opera plays. And she is dreaming of another concert, though the timeline for the future concert is not definitive at present.
