2016年11月2日夜晚,杭州劇院星光閃耀,舞者云集。這是浙江省舞蹈界展示豐碩成果的日子。
由浙江省文聯、浙江省舞蹈家協會主辦的第三屆“浙江舞蹈獎”頒獎晚會在浙江歌舞劇院舞蹈團表演的《追夢》中拉開序幕,劉海燕、褚琳、李建平、劉坤、鈕約、鄭超華、李娜、孫延澤8位從事舞蹈藝術工作并活躍于一線的舞蹈藝術工作者榮獲“浙江舞蹈獎”;陳鷹、羅敏、沈蓓、葉煥華、余茹茹、吳露生等已退出一線工作的老一輩舞蹈藝術工作者獲得“榮譽獎”。
兩年一屆的“浙江舞蹈獎”是浙江省舞蹈藝術最高獎項。該獎涵蓋了舞蹈各個領域,評獎內容從具體劇目到演員、編導、教學、理論、組織運營各方面,旨在表彰深入實際、深入生活、深入群眾,技藝精湛、勇于創新、貢獻突出的舞蹈藝術工作者,培育催生一批優秀舞蹈人才,推動浙江舞蹈藝術不斷創新發展、提升浙江舞蹈的整體水平,進而滿足人民群眾對舞蹈藝術的更高需求。
杭州歌舞劇院的獨舞《再見了,曾經》、浙江藝術職業學院的三人舞《小金人》、杭州藝術學校的民間舞《鄉舞鄉情》、杭州市江干區文化館與鈕約少兒舞蹈團的《寶寶和大公雞》等舞蹈,展現了近年來浙江在全國和全省各項舞蹈比賽中獲獎節目的風采。
浙江省舞蹈家協會副主席兼秘書長潘嵐介紹,近年來,浙江實施了培養青年藝術人才的“新松計劃”,浙江舞蹈界在創作、表演、理論、教學等領域涌現出了一批優秀作品和優秀舞蹈藝術工作者。在中國舞協舉辦的全國舞蹈最高獎——“荷花獎”比賽中,浙江舞蹈佳績連連:《祭禮長生天》獲“荷花獎”表演金獎,《紅色英雄》獲表演銀獎,《奮楫者》獲當代舞、現代舞編導銀獎,《起舞》獲表演三等獎。
在第九屆全國舞蹈大賽上,劉福洋的《寂靜的天空》獲得評委會特別獎、《蘭亭隨想》獲表演銀獎?!都t色英雄》獲得第十屆全國舞蹈大賽文華舞蹈節目優秀表演獎、全國少數民族民間舞蹈大賽表演銀獎。在2016年舉辦的第七屆華東專業舞蹈展演上,浙江省舞蹈家協會選送的7個代表隊的11個節目獲得了1金、5銀、5銅的好成績。浙江歌舞劇院舞蹈家劉福洋還獲得了“華東之星”的稱號。
春風春雨拂面來,小荷已露尖尖角——少兒舞蹈《城里馬路》《勞動協奏曲》《暖》《爸爸,我們去打球》《讓我多玩會兒》《哇!非洲,我們來啦》獲得“小荷花”獎。
潘嵐在接受筆者采訪時指出,浙江舞蹈演員陣容整體實力較強,這一方面源于對演員的擴招從以往局限于藝術類院校到后來向全國擴展;另一方面則是劉福洋等的名人效應,各地眾多學生慕名而來。在浙江這個具備較好藝術氛圍的大環境中,北方的學生也十分喜歡留杭學習。相對于舞蹈演員來說,舞蹈編導方面則顯得較弱。舞蹈編導需要具備對于本土文化藝術的熱愛,有深厚的地域情感以及豐富的閱歷,才能創作出富有地域特色的作品。外來的編導人才則缺少這樣的地域情感,難以創作出富有江南特色的舞蹈佳作。面對這一現狀,浙江省文化廳推出的“新松計劃”和全省青年舞蹈演員大賽,為發現、培養和推出優秀青年編導、舞蹈人才提供了平臺,引領年輕編導們深入生活,了解浙江文化,汲取浙江特有的舞蹈元素,創作出富有江南風韻的作品。
對于本屆浙江舞蹈獎的頒發,潘嵐表示“浙江舞蹈獎”側重評人,并非專評作品,此次獲獎者以在舞蹈一線工作的教員為主。他們雖然沒有豐富的獲獎經歷,但是幾十年如一日辛勤教學,培養出一批又一批優秀舞蹈藝術工作者。希望以此獎項來鼓勵舞蹈教員更好地工作并培養出更出色的學生。
除了專業院團的舞者,浙江還有很多活躍在藝術院校的教育工作者。此次榮獲“浙江舞蹈獎”的劉海燕,畢業于北京舞蹈學院,現就職于杭州藝術學校。她先后獲華東六省一市舞蹈比賽群舞組創作三等獎,首屆中國舞蹈國際大賽民族舞比賽創作三等獎。
此次榮獲“浙江舞蹈獎”的褚琳,現為浙江藝術職業學院舞蹈系舞蹈表演專業帶頭人,她畢業于北京舞蹈學院古典舞表演教育專業,曾三次獲得文化部“文化藝術院校獎”、“桃李杯”舞蹈比賽“園丁獎”等榮譽,先后培養出殷碩、姚若然、吳嘉雯和林姿艷等眾多優秀舞蹈人才。她撰寫的教材《舞蹈基本功訓練教程》獲專家好評,并先后完成了省級精品課程、省級重點教材建設等10余項教學改革項目。
筆者特地采訪了褚琳老師。她說:“獲獎是件高興的事,是對我們舞蹈教師的鼓勵。教師不像演員那樣,演一個好作品就可能得獎。我們教師培養一棵好苗子、好舞者,就要花上五六年時間。我們雖然是黙默無聞地工作,但始終秉持自己的教學信念。處于一線教學中,反復地糾正學員的基本動作,堅持由量到質的變化,努力培養出優秀的舞蹈演員。”
談到她編的教材廣獲好評,褚琳說這是十多年的教學經驗的積累,并表示在今后的教學工作中積極探索出適合江南學生身體條件的舞蹈教學、訓練路子。舞蹈藝術是運用舞蹈語言、節奏、表情和構圖等多種基本要素,塑造出具有直觀性和動態性的舞蹈形象,表達人們思想感情的一種藝術形式。她說只有更適合教學對象,才能更好地培養出一批又一批的優秀學生。
按照“浙江舞蹈獎”章程,參評“浙江舞蹈獎·榮譽獎”的是已經離開舞蹈藝術工作一線、曾為舞蹈事業作出過貢獻的浙江舞蹈藝術家。此次“浙江舞蹈獎·榮譽獎”獲得者陳鷹,是杭州市舞蹈家協會理事,1966年進入杭州歌舞團,其間曾擔任舞蹈隊長,先后在古典舞劇《小刀會》中扮演劉麗川、現代舞劇《紅色娘子軍》中扮演洪常青、芭蕾舞劇《白毛女》中扮演大春等,深受觀眾喜愛。
第三屆“浙江舞蹈獎”已落幕,而屬于浙江舞蹈的未來剛剛拉開序幕。潘嵐說帶領年輕編導深入生活,提升專業素養,創作出具有江南特色的舞蹈精品,是今后浙江舞蹈工作的重點。
一方水養一方人,一方土則孕育一方情。我們欣喜地看到舞蹈藝術之花綻放在浙江這片美麗的土地上。2017年以“浙江風格,江南舞韻”為主題的舞蹈展演即將開啟,浙江舞蹈事業必將迎來姹紫嫣紅的春天。
Hangzhou Theatre was ablaze with lights, passion and pride on the night of November 2, 2016. The “Dancers of Zhejiang” awarding night was a summary of another fruitful year of the dance circle of Zhejiang Province.
Eight dancers representing the frontline of the dancing art of Zhejiang won the “Dancers of Zhejiang Award”.
The biennial award represents the top of the pyramid of the provinces dancing art, covering a full spectrum of the art of dance and playing an important and active role in the upgrading of the integral dance level of Zhejiang.
Pan Lan, vice chair and secretary general of Zhejiang Dancers Association, pointed out the far-reaching influence of “Pine Tree Plan”, a talent cultivation project targeting the provinces younger generation of dancers. The project has brought Zhejiangs dancers onto the countrys most prestigious stage – “Lotus Award”. At the 7th East China Dance Performance held in 2016, the 11 programs representing seven teams in Zhejiang won a gold medal, five silver medals and five bronze medals, with the Star of East China award won by Liu Fuyang, representing Zhejiang Song and Dance Theatre.
Behind the overall strength of the level of Zhejiangs dancers, according to Pan Lan, is the combined force of the increased sources of talents and the “celebrity effect”. The rise to stardom of the provinces most outstanding dancers, such as Liu Fuyang, helped spread the information that Zhejiang is an ideal place for the career consideration of professional dancers nationwide. The unique artistic atmosphere of Zhejiang has a strong appeal to students from northern China. At the 9th China Dance Contest, Liu Fuyang won the hearts of the judging panel for his .
The “Dancers of Zhejiang Award” focuses more on the dancers than on choreographic presentation. Many recipients of this years awards are teachers – the unsung heroes behind the limelight. Such an awarding scheme aims to boost the morale of dance teachers and reward them for their unknown dedication.
“The award means immense encouragement to me and other teachers. The difference between a dance teacher and a dancer is the time it takes to see the results. A dancer may win fame overnight, but it takes five to six years for a teacher to finally see a promising student off. Day in and day out, we try our best to teach the students the basics and help them lay a solid foundation for the qualitative change that will come someday. Every day we work hard with the unfailing belief in ‘quality and ‘excellence,” shared Chu Lin, one of the winners of this years “Dancers of Zhejiang Award”.
The Hangzhou-based teacher more than qualifies for the award. Her well-received textbook, tailor-made for the physical features of budding dancers across the province, is the crystallization of more than a decade of teaching experience in Hangzhou.
One of the recipients of this years Honorary Award is Chen Ying, representing Hangzhou Dancers Society. Chen joined Hangzhou Song and Dance Theatre in 1966 as the lead dancer of the theatres dance team, and won a cult following for his performance in a dozen dance dramas such as the ballet adaptation of .
The curtains of the 3rd “Dancers of Zhejiang” has rung down; but a new chapter in the provinces dance stage has just begun. Zhejiangs dancers barely have time for a break after a busy year. The year ahead is full of new challenges and opportunities. The future is bright and colorful, and will have a charming Zhejiang flavor.
