The most popular national dance

The most popular national dance is Hongyan.

National dance, also known as folk dance, generally refers to a dance form that is produced and spread among the people, restricted by folk culture, improvised but relatively stable in style, with self-entertainment as its main function.

China folk dance is a branch of China dance, which was founded in the early 1950s. It effectively investigates, collects and arranges the folk dances of all ethnic groups, and then creates them through processing.

In the early 1950s, under the vigorous advocacy and earnest implementation of the government, a large-scale "rescue of heritage" was carried out. Reflected in the field of dance, on the one hand, it is an effective investigation, collection and arrangement of folk dances of various ethnic groups, and it is displayed on the stage with its essence through processing-re-creation; On the other hand, it inherits and develops China traditional opera and dance, making it an independent dance art.

Dances handed down naturally by various ethnic groups, especially those with strong skills, are often reflected in the basic styles of some representative artists. Most of them are farmers, which can be called folk dancers, but their status has been low for a long time, and they even live a life of starvation and displacement. Therefore, "saving the heritage" is also to save folk artists with superb skills. They and their art have gained unprecedented respect-they entered the elegant hall for the first time.

This work is not a temporary expedient measure, but a long-term basic policy, which can also be said to be the continuation and development of the "Yan 'an New Yangko Movement". The new generation of dancers consciously follow the guiding ideology of speech, go deep into life, learn from the masses, carefully study, collect and sort out those seemingly "rough" but "most vivid" folk dances, and select the most popular aesthetic features for refining and processing in the spirit of "removing dross"-removing unhealthy components left over from feudal society and "taking the essence".
