When the "noisy" suona meets the "quiet" library, what wonderful sparks will it collide with? Recently, Hu Chenyun, a suona performer of the Shanghai National Orchestra and a national first-class actor, came to the Pudong Library to give a lecture on "China-Chic has come to the series - Generation z folk music style". This is the closing work of the fourth quarter of the "See the East" activity of Pudong Library, and it also opened the curtain of the fifth year of the "Great Aesthetic Education" brand activity. The 600-seat lecture hall of Pudong Library welcomes a long-lost one, which is hard to find. There are many children and parents in the audience.

Since the first combination of suona and electronic rock music in 2016, Hu Chenyun has been playing more and more "broken circles", making this ancient musical instrument the "online celebrity" pursued by young people. At the scene, he played the suona and the modern electric blowpipe, and joined hands with keyboard players and guitarists to perform the classic folk music "The Hundred Birds and the Phoenix", the theme song "Wukong" of the domestic animated film "The Return of the Great Sage", and the theme song "Big Fish" of "Big Fish and Begonia". "People used to think that suona is local, that is, weddings and funerals, weddings and funerals, but with its' broken circle ', I also hope to let more people know that it can be elegant and lyrical, can also be very popular." Hu Chenyun said.

In Hu Chenyun's view, the times are developing forward, and the presentation of folk music and national music should also be different to meet the appreciation taste of Generation z. Last December, Hu Chenyun held a concert in the style of "anime" at the Shanghai Concert Hall. "Suona has a history of 1500 years in China, which proves its vitality and unlimited possibilities. As long as it can innovate, it can have better development."

When she came to the Pudong Library, Hu Chenyun found that it was a place where she could read books and enjoy music, and there were many children on the scene. "When looking at electronic products, children can see the same color, hear the same sound, and contact the same world. When reading a paper book, every child can imagine a different scene in a short paragraph of text, and the world they contact has infinite possibilities."

"See the East" is jointly sponsored by the New Era Civilization Practice Center of Pudong New Area, Pudong Library and the Workers' Cultural Palace of Pudong New Area, and undertaken by the Financial Media Center of Pudong New Area. Since its establishment in 2018, "See the East" has invited more than 30 guests to share the beauty of history and culture, literature and art, scientific and technological creation, nature and humanity in Pudong Library.
