The reporter learned from the press conference of the 15th China Music Golden Bell Awards held in Beijing on October 14th that the theme of this year's Golden Bell Awards is "Times Golden Bell · Colorful Music". It will be held in Chengdu from October 18th to 29th, with more than 80 series of activities including opening and closing concerts, semi-finals, finals, industry discussions, talent docking, and Golden Bell flash mobs. It is reported that this year's Golden Bell Awards will resume the establishment of work awards, increase performance awards, and increase the total number of awards from 20 to 40. At the same time, measures such as optimizing the award mechanism, updating the judge database, implementing the judge avoidance system, and strengthening supervision procedures have been taken to continuously enhance the fairness, scientificity, and authority of the award work. It is reported that in terms of work awards, there are two categories: orchestral and ethnic orchestral. After three rounds of strict selection, including initial evaluation, re evaluation, and final evaluation, five outstanding works are selected from each category. In terms of performance awards, there are vocal (bel canto, ethnic), piano, guzheng, ethnic plucked music, brass and other projects. After the national selection competition, a total of 378 contestants entered the semi-finals. The Golden Bell Awards for Chinese Music is the only permanent comprehensive music award in China, which has been successfully held for fourteen sessions since its establishment in 2001. (New Society)
