劉雯雯:90後,中國第一個嗩吶博士

Liu Wenwen, born after 1990, is the first doctor of suona in China. The young suona player is now studying in Shanghai Conservatory of Music. In 2017, when Liu was still a student, she performed Hundreds of Birds Paying Homage to Phoenix in the Sydney Opera House, amazing the audience with the special Chinese instrument and making a name for herself. Liu Wenwen’s ancestors started to play suona in early Qing dynasty, over 400 years ago. She’s the 13th-generation inheritor. In order to reduce traditional prejudice against suona, she always wears a formal dress in performances and combines suona with jazz and popular music.

90後嗩吶演奏家劉雯雯,是中國第一位嗩吶博士,就讀於上海音樂學院。2017年,還是學生的劉雯雯,將嗩吶帶進悉尼歌劇院,成了首位登上該舞台的嗩吶演奏家。憑一曲《百鳥朝鳳》,驚艷國外樂團和觀眾,一戰成名。劉雯雯的家族從明末清初承襲嗩吶,已有400多年,到了她,已經是第13代。為打破「嗩吶是婚喪嫁娶才吹」的成見,她每次登台,必穿禮服,還將嗩吶和爵士、流行音樂結合。
