Basic Introduction Chinese Name: Gaochun Yang Qiang Manglietia Opera mbth: Gaochun Yangqiang Manglietia Opera? Ten thousand years, origin and development, origin, * * * period, gradually declined. The oldest stage of Gaochun in ten thousand years is called Wanshoutai. It is located in Liujialong Village, about five miles south of Gucheng Town. It was built in the first year of Yuan Dynasty, namely 13 14. Because of its long history, it is also known as the stage of ten thousand years. The origin and development of Gaochun opera art began in the Song Dynasty. At the beginning, there was only Nanqu, that is, the rhyme was the southern language, the music was pentatonic, accompanied by Xiao Di, and the tone was soft and euphemistic. Later, with a large number of immigrants from the north crossing the south to avoid chaos, it brought the Northern Song Dynasty. Beiqu corresponds to Nanqu, with strong and simple tone and seven tones of music. The Yuan Dynasty was the heyday of China's traditional opera art, and the famous Dou Eyuan and The Romance of the West Chamber were all produced at that time. Accordingly, the operas in Gaochun area have evolved from Nanqu and Beiqu to Yuan Zaju with music, song and dance movements and chanting. This is a relatively mature form of drama. * * * During the Yuan Dynasty, the imperial examination system was abolished and the national differentiation policy was implemented, and people were divided into four classes. Gao Chun was the "southerner" with the lowest status. As a result, some scholars, especially the descendants of powerful people who crossed the south to avoid chaos, lost the opportunity to seek fame. As a result, they turned their energy to playing, singing and singing, and became semi-professional artists and drama lovers. Some educated monks and Taoists also joined the ranks, which led to the appearance of Gaochun ancient drama. At that time, singing opera on the stage of farming or festivals, especially in bumper years, has gradually become a folk custom. Because Gaochun's Mulan Opera in Yang Qiang preached feudal superstition and karma, it gradually declined. However, due to its unique style, it has always been regarded as one of the topics to study the origin of China opera by opera experts. Wanshou Stage, which began in Yuan Dynasty, has been rebuilt and repaired many times, but due to its age, many sculptures and decorations have been seriously damaged, and the appearance of the stage still exists, and it was listed as a county-level protected cultural relic in 1984. When you step onto this ancient stage, you can still imagine the grand occasion of drama performances and temple fairs.
