糧食局長的婺劇情懷

2006年歲末，讓人如癡如醉的婺劇首次以編隊的陣容，濃彩重墨地亮相省會杭州，《鐵血國殤》《呂布與貂蟬》《百壽圖》《江山本色》和《姐妹易嫁》等5部經典劇目，由金華地區的5個劇團依次在勝利劇院隆重獻演。這不僅讓婺劇迷們一飽眼福，而且也讓許多不知婺劇為何物的觀眾大開眼界，他們發現這株經歷了400多年歲月的江南奇葩，竟如此光彩奪目！

這場濃墨重彩的婺劇演出所以能在省城隆重舉行，全靠浙江省內眾多社會賢達和熱心人士的推動，當“婺劇演出周”的帷幕剛剛落下，由這幫社會熱心人士悉心籌組的浙江省婺劇促進會便宣告成立。這一非公有制民間文化團體非同尋常，她的成員大都是省內外文藝界的知名人士和專家、學者，中央音樂學院院長王次等名家，還擔任了這個團體的顧問。而擔任這個促進會會長的，競是掌握浙江全省糧食的官員——浙江省糧食局局長李林訪。

有人好奇地問：糧食官員李林訪與婺劇有何關聯？他為何如此熱愛婺劇？筆者就此采訪了這位自號為“鐵桿婺劇迷”的糧食局長。

李林訪系浙江麗水縉云人，生長在山區的他，從小就受婺劇的耳濡目染，年長日久，婺劇漸漸地成了他的摯愛。上高中和大學時，出于愛好，他開始學習板胡、徽胡、嗩吶等婺劇演奏樂器，把這些樂器操弄得有板有眼。從上世紀80年代李林訪先后任青田、縉云等縣領導和麗水行署副專員、金溫鐵路總指揮時，盡管工作忙，但心中仍然不時記起他心儀的婺劇和他熱愛的婺劇演奏樂器。1998年他調到省城杭州任省糧食局長后，由于省城的文化環境好，他那難以割舍的婺劇情結進一步涌上了心頭，于是他在領導工作余暇向省里的專業人士學習板胡、徽胡、嗩吶和葫蘆笙的演奏技巧。

李林訪有很高的悟性和音樂天賦，學習也很刻苦認真，每次練習拉胡琴時，一弓一弓地連每一個滑音和裝飾音都不含糊，后來當他與專業琴師兩人同時演奏一只曲子時，竟達到了聽起來如同一人演奏的效果。李林訪琴練得認真，他的工作也像練琴，認真細致，一點也不含糊：他在金溫鐵路總指揮部任職時，由于在大學學的是數學專業，為了工作對口，他很快就自學完了大學鐵道專業的全部課程，并主動擔綱完成了一座地勢險峻的高難度橋梁工程的設計任務。鐵道部長來視察時，發現他這般精通業務，對他開玩笑說：“要是不了解你的底細，人家還以為你是哪個鐵道學院畢業的呢！”由此推理，有人說，如果當初李林訪進了婺劇團學演奏，他也會成為一個出色的演奏家。

如今他在糧食局長任上，由于業余愛好，他發動婺劇票友們成立了一支專門演奏婺劇音樂的樂隊，樂隊成員也許受到局長那種認真執著的感染與熏陶，大家一個個練習得十分投入。

2006年11月初，全國首屆糧食儲藏技術與管理論壇在杭州召開，其間糧食局作為東道主，專門為200多位代表舉行了一場婺劇演奏演唱晚會。晚會首先上場的是局機關女聲合唱隊用婺劇演唱的《八榮八恥歌》。接著，李林訪親自登臺，與浙江婺劇團的樂隊人員一起，演奏了婺劇音樂中著名的大型器樂套曲《花頭臺》。演奏畢，贏得了觀眾一陣又一陣的熱烈喝彩。此外，糧食局還邀請許多名家在晚會上演唱了許多婺劇經典唱段。晚會結束后，一位代表回到住地仍然十分激動，欣然提筆在燈下寫了一首長詩，長詩的結尾這樣寫道：“錢塘觀潮潮不盡，余音繞梁梁有聲。從來皆知聽國粹，可知國粹要歸宗。揚琴鼓曲驚四座，滿座同賀李先生。”

最令李林訪難以忘懷的，是2000年為婺劇表演藝術家鄭蘭香從藝45周年舉行的一次紀念活動。紀念會上，這位年過六旬的老藝術家沒有陶醉在為她祝賀的海洋般的鮮花叢中，而是幾乎用啼血的聲音呼吁：“我知道，不只是我，我的老師和圈內外眾多熱愛婺劇的人們，都在用不同的聲音呼喚婺劇的再崛起，呼喚婺劇的新生，……”李林訪，這位深愛婺劇的糧食局長，這次發起籌建婺劇促進會，分明是在用行動響應這位杰出婺劇藝術家的呼喚。

李林訪雖然對婺劇音樂已經頗有造詣，但他并不滿足，近年來李林訪又在浙江歌舞總團著名笛子演奏家杜如松和嗩吶演奏家杜竹松、浙江婺劇團首席琴師諸葛智屏指導下，進一步學習婺劇樂器演奏技藝，最近已成功錄制了他以板胡、徽胡和嗩吶主奏身份與浙江婺劇團專業工作者們一起演奏的婺劇經典音樂與名家唱段，共13個節目，這些節目不久將用VCD形式出版發行。

婺劇促進會成立后，李林訪說近兩年內他要辦兩件大事：一是與電視臺合作，搞一場全省性的婺劇大獎賽，為普及婺劇和為專業劇團發現人才作點貢獻；二是要像搞《梁祝》小提琴協奏曲那樣，在提高上下工夫，協助專業工作者創作一部高水平的婺劇交響樂。

還值得一提的是，李林訪在金溫鐵路總指揮的任上，有幸與臺灣著名國學泰斗南懷瑾先生結成“忘年交”。最近南先生細細欣賞了由李林訪參與的婺曲錄制節目后大加贊賞，南懷瑾表示：“婺劇的唱腔和音樂都很美，你們要好好挖掘，創作出像納西古典音樂那樣富有鮮明的民族地方特色的作品，我一定把它推薦到臺灣和東南亞去演出。”李林訪還欣喜地告訴筆者：在新華網站上建立的“中國婺劇網”開播后，海內外的點擊率很高。歐洲華人在當地開設的餐館中也在播發“中國婺劇網”的視頻，用餐的不少老外看了，都對婺劇藝術發生了興趣，他相信婺劇在全國、全世界，一定會有更多的知音。

Director’s Passion for Wu Opera

By Pan Guojun， our staff reporter

In early December 2006， Wu Opera， a 400-year-old theatrical tradition in central Zhejiang Province， displayed its magnificent charms in Hangzhou. Involved in this grand one-week performance were five Wu Opera troupes from Jinhua and neighboring cities and counties， which exhibited five classic plays at the downtown Victory Theater. The gala event not only gave enthusiastic fans an opportunity to celebrate and enjoy， but also exposed the first-timers to the splendors of Wu Opera.

The triumphant gala was made possible by a large group of enthusiasts from all walks of life across the province. After the weekly event， the Zhejiang Council for the Promotion of Wu Opera was founded. The organization consists of celebrities， scholars， and experts within and without the province. Director of the Grain Administration of Zhejiang Province， Li Linfang is the director of the ZCPWO and is probably the most fanatic fan of Wu Opera in the country.

So how come he has such an ardor for the traditional opera? And how fanatic he really is?

The full exposure to the charm of Wu Opera in his early childhood years in the southern Zhejiang province made him infatuated with it. In high school and college years， he learned to play several musical instruments used in the Wu Opera. In the 1980s， he worked in the southern part of the province as a government official， which brought him back to the region where Wu Opera is a popular entertainment. In 1998 he was transferred to Hangzhou and assumed the directorship of the provincial grain authorities.

His work and life in Hangzhou enable him to find more fans of Wu Opera and a more amenable cultural environment. In his spare time， Li Linfang took musical lessons from professionals to play musical instruments used in the Wu Opera. Now he is a good player. He has organized a band that consists of Wu Opera enthusiasts. The band meets regularly to play Wu Opera pieces. Li has collaborated with professional musicians in recording thirteen Wu Opera musical pieces， which will be released soon.

In addition to the aforesaid Wu Opera gala in Hangzhou， Lin has been a motive force behind other Wu Opera activities in Hangzhou. For example， he organized a Wu Opera performance to entertain his 200 colleagues who came from all over the country for a conference in Hangzhou in November 2006. It was a huge success. In 2000， he was instrumental in an event in celebration of the 45-year career of Zheng Lanxiang， a Wu Opera master.

Li Linfang looks forward to more promotional activities to be conducted by the Council. One big plan is to sponsor a province-wide Wu Opera competition on television so as to give opportunities to promising Wu Opera artists. Another big plan is to see to the possible to have a symphony composed on the basis of Wu Opera musical elements.

Now， a national Wu Opera website is established in conjunction with the Xinhua website. The Wu Opera website has become the primary source for some Chinese restaurant proprietors in Europe to download Wu Opera performances and play them to their customers. The European feedback is highly positive.
