Differences between Modern Peking Opera and Traditional Peking Opera

Modern drama is a story very close to the present, which was called modern drama from the Republic of China to the founding of the People's Republic of China. Opera is an ancient story, from Shang Dynasty to Qing Dynasty. The costume of traditional drama is different from that of modern drama. The costumes of traditional operas are all uniform Ming costumes, no matter what dynasty the characters in operas are in, they are all Ming costumes. Only when performing Hu people, do you use Qing costumes. For example, in "Shiro Visiting Mother-Sitting in the Palace", isn't Princess Tiejing wearing the clothes of women in the Qing Dynasty? And this drama, it's just a pass. The big uncle and the second uncle are dressed as honest officials. The costumes of modern drama correspond to the historical environment at that time. For example, in The Red Lantern, Shajiabang wore the uniform of the Eighth Route Army, and Li Yuhe wore the uniform of a railway worker. And the accompaniment is different. Traditional operas are accompanied by musical instruments such as Jinghu, Jinghu Erhu, Xiaosanxian, Yueqin, zhongruan and Daruan, while modern operas are accompanied by symphony.
