What are the characteristics of Beijing Opera?

Singing Bai in Peking Opera is a musical language, also called Daobai. There are mainly two kinds: one is "white rhyme", which uses "Huguang tone" and "Zhongzhou rhyme" to say elegant words, while Xiao Sheng, Laosheng, Lao Dan, Qingyi and Huahua all say white rhyme to show solemn expressions; The other is called "Bai Jing", which is mainly used by Hua Dan, Cai Dan, clowns and eunuchs. , with lively and smooth tone and humorous content and feelings. For example, in the play Iron Bow Edge, my daughter was slapped when she was competing with a young student. The mother asked her daughter, "Why is her face red?" My daughter replied, "I drank some wine. Mother asked again, "Why is your face half red?" "The daughter replied," I drank half a cup. It's interesting to read. Jing Bai is close to the life language, which makes people feel friendly and easy to understand, and can also play a role in easing the tension in the play. Speaking of Bai Jing doesn't mean that the characters in the play are Beijingers. There are also a few characters who use other dialects in Beijing Opera, such as the old hero in Guagua Garden reciting white characters in Shanxi dialect and the old ferryman in Qiu Jiang reciting Sichuan white characters.
