Early experience
Liu Huan1963 was born in a teacher's family in Tianjin on August 26th, when Liu Huan was studying in Tianjin Gymnasium Primary School. [2] Eight-year-old Liu Huan and his classmate Dai Zhicheng are a group of crosstalk performers in Tianjin Gymnasium Primary School, and Liu Huan is a comedian. At that time, Li Junying, a teacher of the Cultural Propaganda Team of the Gymnasium Primary School, spoke highly of Liu Huan's crosstalk performance. "The voice and emotion are very rich, and the performance is particularly vivid, which amuses many audiences." At that time, Liu Huan Jr. and Dai Zhicheng were already famous crosstalk performers in Tianjin, and crosstalk masters often intended to take them as disciples. But in the end, because Liu Huan's mother didn't want her children to do the job, she gave up the opportunity. [1] Liu Huan sings Peking Opera well, and the best one is the excerpt from "Taking the Tiger Mountain Outward". The propaganda team of Gymnasium Primary School was very famous in Tianjin at that time, and the children of art troupe had many opportunities to go out to perform and show their talents. In addition, Liu Huan can also speak Shandong Kuaishu. After graduating from junior high school, Liu Huan was admitted to Hua Yao Middle School with excellent results. Because Dai Zhicheng failed to be admitted to Hua Yao, their cooperation ended in his youth. [2]
After that, I studied French literature at the Institute of International Relations 198 1 to 1985. During his college years, Liu Huan showed his obsession with music. [2] 1985 won the first prize in the English and French Song Contest of Capital University. [3] Liu Huan said, "I came into contact with classical music for the first time, and I like music from classical music. Because at that time, I listened to less pop music and more classical music. I am a high school student in Tianjin. One of my classmates is determined to take the college entrance examination of the Conservatory of Music. When I was a sophomore, there was a grand piano in the school. The first time I saw him playing Chopin's Butterfly in front of me, I was very confused. It turns out that this thing can be made like this ... after 1983, I made my own pop music. Sophomore and junior saw so many students playing guitar at school. I went to see it. Later, I started writing my own songs. I'm a little interested in everything that sounds. Although I haven't learned the singing method of traditional Chinese opera, I like listening to it, and even I pay more attention to some singing methods of Chinese opera ... "[4].
