Curricular art

Curricular art, as China's most national and folkloric performing art, occupies a very important position in the entire history of China's literary and artistic development.

First of all, music and art is a special carrier of Chinese national history and national literature. The epic poems of various ethnic minorities in Chinese history, as well as many folk songs and narrative poems, have been disseminated, promoted and preserved through the "rapping" of the art of Chinese opera. Take the finalization, stereotyping, preservation and dissemination of the world-famous epic poems of the three major ethnic groups in China - the Tibetan epic "The Legend of King Gesar", the Kirgiz epic "Manas" and the Mongolian epic "Jianggeer" - as an example, objectively, they mainly relied on the "rapping" of the ethnic groups and the "singing" of the ethnic minorities. Objectively, it mainly relies on the national folk "rap" artists to collect and summarize, organize and process, and "rap" performances to be passed on. The fundamental sign is that the inheritance system and mechanism of these epics are actually reflected by the survival and development of the epic "rap" style operatic songs formed by their inheritance. As for the Han Dynasty narrative poems and the "rapping" of the song, the flesh and blood relationship is a powerful footnote to this phenomenon, needless to say.

Secondly, the art of opera is the bridge and mother of the classical Chinese chapter book novels and many kinds of operas and dramas. In other words, in its historical development, the art of opera gave birth to the classical Chinese novel and many types of opera and drama. The completion of the classical Chinese novels "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", "Water Margin", "Journey to the West" and "The Founder of the Gods", etc. is the result of the direct nurturing of Chinese opera. From the north to the south of China, including Jilin Jiyu Opera, Beijing Qu Opera, Shandong Lv Opera, Zhejiang Yue Opera and so on, local operas, especially the formation of their voices, are also directly originated from the local music styles, such as ErRenRou (Two People's Opera), ShanXin (Single-stringed Opera), Shandong qinshu (Shandong Qinshu), and ShengZhou singshu. Thus, it has become the "mother art" that nurtures other arts.

Finally, by its own existence, the opera not only provides literary themes for other arts, but also profoundly influences and nurtures the artistic aesthetic and spiritual temperament of Chinese people.
