A music studio less than 10 square meter is a "paradise" in Shen Jun.
In addition to various musical instruments and audio equipment, the two gold medals are particularly eye-catching in the music studio. Last year, Shen Jun participated in the 6th "Cultural Spring" China Folk Song Creation Competition. His song "Xiang Guang He Xiang" won the gold medal of "China Folk Songs", and he himself was awarded the title of "excellent songwriter" in the competition. For Shen Jun, who has been engaged in mass cultural work in Taobei District Cultural Center, these two medals are the crystallization of his half-life efforts. Some people think that Shen Jun is old enough to know his own destiny, and these honors come a little late. If he had devoted himself to the creation of folk songs in his early years, instead of running around to give literary guidance to the masses, perhaps his achievements would have been much greater than now.
To this, Shen Jun just responded. Engaged in mass cultural work for nearly 30 years. During these 30 years, he almost traveled all over Baicheng, leaving his footprints everywhere in institutions, schools, factories, mines, troops and villages. He knows that the literary and art groups there need him and the music lovers there need him. He guided them with his knowledge of music theory and touched them with his playing. Isn't this an achievement? What's more, folk songs are rooted in the nation and more rooted in the people. Without the accumulation from the people in those years, they have the honor of winning the prize in the concert hall now!
Successful people are envied, but the road to success that successful people have taken will never be smooth. Shen Jun's success is due to his musical talent and diligence. Shen Jun is recognized as an accordion player. Many years ago, Geng Lianfeng, a famous national singer, came to perform in Bai, and Shen Junyong accompanied him with the accordion. After the song "Xie" ended, Zhang Zhenfu looked at Shen Jun in surprise, and then said to the audience: This young man plays the piano really well. Please give him a special round of applause! At that time, I didn't know that I had received the true biography of accordion master Yu, so the disciples naturally had different reactions.
Speaking of that apprenticeship, Shen Jun couldn't help laughing: "It was in the 1970s. I just graduated from baicheng normal and wanted to improve my accordion performance. I overheard that Yu was working in Zhenlai. He is a great figure in the accordion field in China. I have admired him for a long time, thinking that I can't miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity anyway, so I don't know where to go. I took the train to Zhenlai first, and then walked more than 20 miles with my accordion on on my back. Finally, I found Mr. Yu in Dongping Township. At first, he was very cold to me and said that he would not accept students. I said, then listen to me play a paragraph. He nodded his head. Once playing the accordion, Mr. Yu frowned and said, it's too difficult. You have to relax when playing the accordion. I played it again according to his request, and the teacher frowned and said, much better, but still a little tight. After the third fight, teacher Yu said with a smile, boy, you are very smart. In this way, he accepted my students. "
Shen Jun was born in a family in Liyuan, influenced by his family, and loved music since childhood. Under the influence of his parents, Shen Jun played the piano and sang songs as daytime games when he was a child. He practices hard and enjoys it. Diligence and studiousness are the habits he has developed since childhood. Over time, this habit melted into his blood and became his character.
At the age of 49, Shen Jun became fascinated with midi music, that is, computer music production. The ancients said that they would stop studying art after the age of 30. Shen Jun is 49 years old and computer-illiterate, but he wants to learn advanced computer music production, which sounds like an idiot to many people. But Shen Jun, an "idiot", insisted on keeping this dream alive. He signed up for a computer training class and learned everything from scratch. In the training class, he is the oldest and the hardest. After mastering the relevant computer knowledge, he bought a lot of midi music books, refused all unnecessary entertainment and activities, shut himself at home, stayed out of the world all day, and wandered in the sea of Wang Yang where computer music was produced. Finally, he learned this high-tech music production technology that many young musicians regarded as timid. In Baicheng, he was the first person to master the production technology of midi music. It is admirable to fill the gap of midi music with the "old age" of nearly 50 years old.
Shen Jun cherishes national music, which he thinks is the root and soul of music. Over the years, he has collected a large number of classical works of national music and tried to create his own works. However, he was not confident of his own level before he participated in the 6th China Folk Song Creation Competition of "Cultural Spring". When he received the notice of the contest, his friend advised him to try. Shen Jun hesitated for a long time before sending two works. Shen Jun didn't expect much from these two works and this competition. Unexpectedly, an editor wrote back to Shen Jun soon. There are only four sentences in the letter: good choice of words and good writing of music. If you have any excellent works, please send them. Shen Jun's two works were included in the book "Folk Songs of China", and the song "Xiang Guang He Xiang" won the gold medal in "Folk Songs of China" in this competition.
After ten years of silence, Shen Jun finally made a blockbuster.
As a musician, Shen Jun always thinks that music is a responsibility. It should serve the public and society. Because it can delight people's hearts, enrich the lives of the rich and give them strength. Perhaps this understanding of music is the reason why he has been engaged in mass cultural work without regrets for decades.
Shen Jun often compares himself to a horse. He really looks like a horse. He is smart, humble, enthusiastic, tireless and bravely strives for the first place ... He is 50 years old, not old. I believe that this fine horse has a broader space to gallop in the 800-mile music scene, and it can also make more contributions to the prosperity of rural music and mass cultural work.
The old horse has a thousand miles of ambition, and watch Shen Jun's horse fly in the air!
