2024年5月21日的下午，深圳技术大学C5大演播厅内，深圳歌剧舞剧院的演员们为深圳技术大学的师生们带来了一场别开生面的全新沉浸式歌剧《先行者》。这部以深圳为背景的汇报剧，记录了从改革开放初期至今，深圳年轻人在经济发展的大潮中不懈奋斗，最终实现梦想的历程。作品通过真实的人物故事和生动的表演方式，展现了深圳年轻一代的精神风貌和坚韧不拔的精神。它不仅是对深圳建设中国特色社会主义先行示范区这一时代命题的回应，也是对“21世纪是海洋世纪”的国际共识的呼应——围绕创新、聚焦青年、直面海洋抒怀，以小见大，着力描绘在全球化互联网时代，粤港澳大湾区新一代先行者群像。

    On the afternoon of May 21, 2024, inside the C5 Grand Hall of Shenzhen Technology University, actors from the Shenzhen Opera and Dance Theater presented an extraordinary immersive opera titled "Pioneer" to the faculty and students of Shenzhen Technology University. This production, set against the backdrop of Shenzhen, chronicles the relentless struggle of Shenzhen's youth amidst the tide of economic development since the early days of reform and opening up, ultimately realizing their dreams. Through authentic character stories and vivid performances, the opera showcases the spirit and perseverance of the young generation in Shenzhen. It not only responds to the era's proposition of building the demonstration area of socialism with Chinese characteristics in Shenzhen but also echoes the international consensus of "the 21st century is the ocean century" — focusing on innovation, youth, facing the ocean, and expressing sentiments, with the aim of depicting the new generation of pioneers in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area amidst the era of globalization and the internet.

    在创作团队方面，《先行者》汇聚了众多知名艺术家：著名策划人、词作家朱海，著名作曲家、音乐制作人捞仔，著名导演艺术家、戏剧教育家黄定山担纲总导演。主演团队方面，深圳歌剧舞剧院的实力歌唱家们纷纷登场：青年男高音歌唱家马腾、男中音歌唱家袁帅、男高音歌唱家蔡继瑜、女高音歌唱家田思颖、女高音歌唱家彭易、女中音歌唱家李颖等。

    In terms of the creative team, "Pioneer" has gathered numerous renowned artists: the acclaimed planner and lyricist Zhu Hai, the distinguished composer and music producer Lao Zai, and the eminent director and theater educator Huang Dingshan as the chief director. As for the cast, the lineup features talented singers from the Shenzhen Opera and Dance Theater: the young tenor Ma Teng, baritone Yuan Shuai, tenor Cai Jiyu, soprano Tian Siying, soprano Peng Yi, mezzo-soprano Li Ying, and more.

    《先行者》作为一部现实主义题材作品，成功将真实生活融入艺术创作，充满了打动人心、引人共鸣的真实时代气息。在歌剧艺术特色方面，《先行者》既保留了传统歌剧的特点，又有着多重创新。在坚守歌剧音乐本体的前提下，调动一切舞台艺术综合表现手段，凸显了当代性、时尚性和独特性，使得这部剧既“好听”又“好看”。

    "Pioneer," as a work of realism, successfully integrates real-life experiences into artistic creation, brimming with a moving and resonant atmosphere of the times. In terms of operatic artistry, "Pioneer" not only retains the characteristics of traditional opera but also incorporates multiple innovations. While adhering to the essence of opera music, it leverages various stage art forms to highlight contemporaneity, fashionability, and uniqueness, making the production both "pleasant to the ear" and "pleasing to the eye."

    深圳技术大学音乐学院的师生们在观剧过程中，视觉、听觉、触觉被全方位打开。演出时，音乐学院的师生们不时响起热烈的掌声，他们能从中感受到深圳这座“逐梦之城”的独特魅力与无限活力，也与在深圳工作拼搏的追梦者产生共鸣。深圳人熟悉的生活场景，时尚现代的服装造型等，真实地再现于舞台，让作品有一种视觉写实的气质；不仅如此，舞台调度灵动流畅，层次感与画面感兼具，极具艺术感染力。

   During the performance, faculty and students from the School of Music of  Shenzhen Technology University had their senses fully engaged, with their visual, auditory, and tactile senses all stimulated. Throughout the show, enthusiastic applause frequently erupted from the audience of the School of Music, as they could feel the unique charm and boundless vitality of Shenzhen, known as the "City of Dreams," resonating with the aspirations of dream pursuers striving in Shenzhen. Familiar scenes of life in Shenzhen and the fashionable modern costumes were authentically reproduced on stage, giving the production a visual realism. Moreover, the dynamic and fluid stage direction, coupled with the layered and visually captivating scenes, exuded a strong artistic appeal.

《先行者》展现的新时代深圳青年，不只是守成者，而要继续向世界进发，面对无垠的海洋，以新一代对拓荒牛精神的传承与创新，乘风破浪、闯关夺隘，唱响“中国式现代化”的新时代强音。

    "Pioneer" portrays the new generation of youth in contemporary Shenzhen not just as preservers of tradition but as pioneers venturing forth into the world. Confronting the boundless ocean, they inherit and innovate upon the pioneering spirit of previous generations, bravely breaking through obstacles and singing the anthem of "Chinese-style modernization" in the new era.

    歌剧《先行者》不仅为深圳技术大学的师生们带来了一场视觉与听觉的盛宴，更是一次精神上的洗礼。它激发了学生们对音乐的热爱，对艺术的追求，对生活的热情。未来，音乐学院将继续邀请更多艺术家们，为校园美育添砖加瓦，让更多的学生能够在艺术的熏陶下，成长为有才华、有担当的新时代青年。

    The opera "Pioneer" not only provided faculty and students at Shenzhen Technology University with a feast for the senses but also served as a spiritual awakening. It ignited students' passion for music, their pursuit of art, and their enthusiasm for life. In the future, the School of Music will continue to invite more artists to contribute to campus aesthetic education, allowing more students to grow into talented and responsible young people under the influence of art.
