越國故都、西施故里諸暨為繁榮西施故里旅游文化，進(jìn)一步激發(fā)廣大市民對戲曲藝術(shù)的追求，浙江衛(wèi)視、諸暨市旅游局、文化交流雜志社最近聯(lián)合舉辦了西施故里《戲迷擂臺》越劇賽。

此次擂臺賽突出社會參與、面向群眾、省市聯(lián)手、彰顯特色原則，近百名戲迷朋友參加初賽海選，參賽選手熱情之高，水平之強，體現(xiàn)了諸暨深厚的戲曲文化底蘊。

這一次擂臺賽分三階段進(jìn)行，參賽選手以清唱形式通過封閉式的初賽選拔后，優(yōu)秀選手進(jìn)入復(fù)賽，復(fù)賽選手經(jīng)過唱腔、藝術(shù)等方面的比拼，最后從中選出12名選手進(jìn)入決賽。

浙江衛(wèi)視《戲迷擂臺》欄目組對西施故里“戲迷擂臺”賽進(jìn)行了全程錄制，梅花獎得主著名越劇演員錢惠麗、張小君、謝群英、陳飛以及國家一級演員吳素英、周柳萍等擔(dān)任決賽評委。

“戲迷擂臺走進(jìn)諸暨第一場開鑼”！浙江衛(wèi)視著名主持人更生的話語剛落下，四位參賽選手便精神抖擻地站在觀眾面前各自自我介紹，選手們在舞臺上優(yōu)美的唱腔、醉人的身段，給評委和觀眾們留下了深刻的印象。

到了第三場比賽，男參賽選手祝志德演唱了越劇經(jīng)典曲目《洞房悄悄靜幽幽》后，評委錢惠麗做了詳細(xì)的點評，她用了“男寶貝”一詞來贊賞這位參賽者；不過最讓觀眾感到惋惜的要數(shù)唱張派老先生的馬閨邡了，她演唱的《五女拜壽·哭別》，唱腔頗有水準(zhǔn)，三位評委也給予了較高的分?jǐn)?shù)，但就因為表演功夫不到位而未能獲得“周擂主”。

12名決賽選手經(jīng)過三場比拼，月擂主爭奪戰(zhàn)在余東娣、朱愛麗、張歡慶三位中展開，這三位選手唱腔功底都相當(dāng)好，評委們根據(jù)唱腔、知識、表演等綜合評比，評出了諸暨陶朱街道張歡慶演唱的徐派代表曲目《紅樓夢·金玉良緣》為勝出者。張歡慶無論在唱腔上還是動作表演上，都有些專業(yè)演員架勢，唱得連評委們都鼓了幾次掌。評委錢惠麗高度評價張歡慶的唱腔，贊他吐字行腔韻味十足，陳飛、謝群英對他作了專業(yè)評價，張歡慶終于成為月度總擂主。

選手們在臺上過戲癮，觀眾也在臺下過戲癮。兩天的錄制現(xiàn)場都顯得格外熱鬧，不少戲迷朋友興致勃勃趕到擂臺賽現(xiàn)場一睹評委、主持人及參賽選手的風(fēng)采，他們穿著顏色不同的T恤衫組成方陣，擺弄著手上的“拍掌器”，成了比賽現(xiàn)場一道亮麗風(fēng)景線。每場比賽結(jié)束，評委、主持人及選手都會被激動的戲迷團團圍住，七嘴八舌地表示自己對他們的仰慕之情。

擂臺賽錄制結(jié)束，評委、梅花獎得主錢惠麗說：“此次擂臺選手水平很高，選手們都選擇經(jīng)典的劇目來演唱，證明他們對自己的演唱很有信心，她用“戲迷選手，滿眼靚麗”的八個字作為對這場戲迷擂臺賽的評價。

這次比賽起到了較好的社會效應(yīng)。浙江衛(wèi)視《戲迷擂臺》欄目組負(fù)責(zé)人稱：“走進(jìn)西施故里越劇比賽”的組織工作，是欄目組成立到現(xiàn)在最認(rèn)真的一次，也是最成功的一次?！稇蛎岳夼_》向全國播出，能使全國觀眾借此充分領(lǐng)略諸暨戲迷們的功底，感受西施故里的山水之美及深厚的文化歷史底蘊，充分展示諸暨的地方特色。

Competition of Yue Opera Fans

Wang Chen， Our Special Reporter

Zhuji， a city in Shaoxing， Zhejiang， is historically known for two things: it was the capital of the Yue Kingdom of the Warring States (475-221 B.C.) and it was the hometown of Xishi， a legendary beauty who helped the Yue State to rise again and revenge its archrival the Wu State 20 years after it was defeated by the Wu State.

Recently， Zhuji Tourism Administration， Zhejiang TV and Cultural Dialogue jointly hosted a Yuejue Opera singing competition among Yuejue Opera aficionados in Zhuji.

The cultural event attracted more than 100 fans. After preliminary contests in singing sessions， 12 finalists were chosen.

The finals were held in three parts and four contestants attended each. The jury consisted of famed Yueju Opera artists who are winners of national Plum Flowers award， the country’s top honor for opera artists. The finals were all documented by Zhejiang Satellite TV.

Zhu Zhide was the only male of the 12 finalists. He drew much attention for his performance and singing. The juror Qian Huili spoke highly of Zhu’s accomplishment and commented on the fact that men were quite rare in both professional and amateur Yueju Opera practices. Zhang Huanqing was the winner of the finals. The jury agreed that her performance and singing were almost professional.

During the two-day finals， finalists enjoyed their Yueju Opera performances on the stage and the audiences also had a great time. The celebrated jurors also attracted fans. Some of the audiences came simply to see the jurors.

A manager with the Zhejiang Satellite TV noted that this Yueju Opera contest in Zhuji was by far the best and most successful compared with similar shows held in other parts of the province. Zhang Huanqing was proud of the winning. She said in an interview with a journalist of Zhuji Daily that she believed she gave more of herself to the Yueju Opera than the rest of the finalists and that she thought her dedication worthwhile because she really loved Yueju Opera.
