《曹操与杨修》初稿的创作和排练距今算来已有八年之久了.当年我和曾家庆先生接受了此剧的音乐唱腔创作任务,对剧中的人物思想、环境、意境等进行了探讨,觉得此剧的音乐唱腔一定要突出民族风格,要搞得古朴、典雅而又具有内涵.曾先生首先提出把胡茄十八拍中第七拍的旋律摘出一个小乐句作为贯穿全剧的音乐素材,但并不给剧中人分设主题,我很赞同他的意见.这样使全剧的音乐唱腔既有内在联系而又有别于其他戏的那种音乐主题贯穿. The creation and rehearsal of the first draft of “Cao Cao and Yang Xiu” has now been around for eight years, when I and Mr. Zeng Jiaqing accepted the task of music aria creation of the play and performed the thought, environment and mood of the play To explore, I think this play’s music singing must be prominent ethnic style, to make simple, elegant and has a connotation.Ceng Zeng first proposed to beat the seventh beat of the Hu Bei eighteen in the melody extracted a small phrase throughout the play But I do share the theme of the cast, and I agree with him, so that the musical theme of the play’s music is intrinsically linked and distinct from other plays.
