Henan Opera is the second largest opera in China.

Henan Opera is also called "Henan Bangzi" and "Henan High-profile". Because early actors sang with their own voices, they turned up the ending tape with falsetto when they started and closed the cavity, which is also called "Henan Fu". In the past, when Henan Bangzi performed in the mountainous area of western Henan, it was often built by the mountain, so people also called it "Shout at the back of the mountain". The name "Henan Opera" came into use only after the founding of New China. Henan Opera is popular in Henan, Hebei, Shandong, Shanxi, Hubei, Ningxia, Qinghai and Xinjiang, and it is one of the most influential operas in China.

Henan Opera came into being in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties. At first, it was mainly oratorio, which was deeply loved by the people, so it developed very rapidly. The origin of Henan opera has always been difficult to verify, and there are different opinions. After Shaanxi Opera and Zhou Pu Bangzi were introduced to Henan in the late Ming Dynasty, on the one hand, they were combined with local folk songs and minor tunes, on the other hand, they developed directly from the northern curve tune. After the formation of Henan Opera, there are four schools: Xiangfu tune in Kaifeng area, Yudong tune in Shangqiu area (also known as East Road tune), Yuxi tune in Luoyang area (also known as Xifu tune or rejuvenation tune) and Shahe tune in Luohe area (also known as local bang). These four schools can be divided into two systems, one is the eastern Henan tune system, and the other is the western Henan tune system. Eastern Henan tune system includes Eastern Henan tune, Xiangfu tune and Shahe tune, while Western Henan tune is different from Eastern Henan tune and has its own uniqueness. The voices of Yudong Tone Department are mostly falsetto, with a high range, which belongs to the commonly known upper five tones. Western Henan calls the real tone with a low range, commonly known as the next five tones. In contrast, the music of eastern Henan tune system is intense and lively, while the music of western Henan tune is deep and deep. Yudong Tone is pronounced in Yudong Tone, and Yuxi Tone is called in Yuxi Tone. The main accompaniment instruments of Henan Opera are banhu, erhu, sanxian, pipa, flute, sheng and suona. Clap your hands with a bangzi, and the rhythm is bright and cheerful. Singing methods are mainly divided into adagio, Barr board, running board, flying board and other board roads. The main schools are divided into eastern Henan tune and western Henan tune. The male voice of Yudong Tune is loud and exciting, and the female voice is lively and jumping, which is good at expressing comedy style. The western Henan tune has a bleak and tragic male voice and a low and euphemistic female voice, and is good at expressing tragic style. Henan opera has always been a great singer, and the key points of the plot have big-board singing, which often sings heartily and shows unique artistic charm. First of all, the style of Henan opera is full of passionate masculinity, and it is good at expressing grand scenes with strong emotional power; Secondly, it is rich in local characteristics, simple and popular, and naturally close to the lives of ordinary people; Thirdly, the rhythm is clear and powerful, the contradictions and conflicts are sharp, the story begins and ends, and the characters are angular. Sichuan Opera is a bright pearl in the treasure house of China Opera. It has a long history and has preserved many excellent traditional plays, rich music and exquisite performing arts. It is a traditional folk art loved by people in southwest provinces such as Sichuan, Yunnan and Guizhou.

In the aspect of traditional opera, Sichuan Opera is a folk lantern opera in this province, which is composed of four major tunes: Gaoqiang, Kunqiang, Huqin and Tanxi. These five types, except Lantern Opera, were introduced to Sichuan from the end of Ming Dynasty to the middle of Qing Dynasty.

Sichuan opera is a major feature of Sichuan culture. Chengdu is the hometown of drama. As early as the Tang Dynasty, there was a saying that "Shu Opera was the best in the world". During the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, on the basis of the local car light drama, the voices of Jiangsu, Jiangxi, Anhui, Hubei, Shaanxi, Gansu and other places were absorbed and integrated, and a "Sichuan Opera" sung in Sichuan dialect was formed, with five parts: tenor, huqin, Kunqu opera, lantern and Tanxi. Among them, Sichuan opera is the main singing form of Sichuan opera with rich tunes, beautiful singing and the most local characteristics. The auxiliary cavity of Sichuan opera is leading cavity, combining cavity, chorus, accompaniment and duet, which means meaningful and fascinating. The language of Sichuan Opera is vivid, humorous, full of distinctive local colors, full of life breath and has a broad mass base. There are hundreds of common plays on the stage, including complete singing, doing, reading and playing, humorous quips, instrumental music, unique "face changing", "fire breathing" and "sleeves", and freehand stylized movements, which imply endless wonderful taste. Sichuan opera is deeply loved by the world and spread all over the world. The famous Sichuan opera The Legend of the White Snake. Jinshan Temple is widely circulated at home and abroad. Sichuan Opera is very popular in Sichuan Province and parts of Yunnan and Guizhou. Originally, five vocal arts imported from other provinces, namely, Kunqu Opera, Gaoqiang Opera, Huqin Opera (Pihuang Opera), Tanxi Opera and Sichuan Folk Lantern Opera, have been performed all over Sichuan. During the Qing Dynasty (1736- 1795), these five vocal arts often performed on the same stage, and gradually formed the same style over time, collectively known as * * *.

Gao, Kun, Hu and Dan Deng have their own situations in the process of merging into a unified Sichuan opera. Kunqu Opera, which originated in Jiangsu, flowed into Sichuan and evolved into "Chuankun" with local characteristics. High notes play a major role in Sichuan Opera. Originated in Yiyang Opera in Jiangxi, it flowed into Sichuan in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties, and was called "Qing Opera" between Chu and Shu. On the basis of maintaining the tradition of "one person singing in harmony, collective response, tight board and adagio", it also absorbs a lot of nutrition from Sichuan yangko, chant, divine comedy and Lianxiang, enriching and developing the characteristics of "helping, beating and singing" closely, forming a Sichuan high-pitched tune with local characteristics. Huqin Opera, also known as "Silk Opera", originated from the harmony between Hui and Han, and also absorbed the elements of "Hanzhong and Huang Er" in Shaanxi. Through the combination of "singing Huqin" and stage performance with Sichuan dialect and Sichuan opera gongs and drums, it has changed greatly in timbre and music, forming a Huqin opera with Sichuan flavor. Tanxi, or random playing, is also known as "cover plate" and "Sichuan Bangzi". It is named after playing the cover-plate huqin and clapping the clappers, and originated from Tongzhou Bangzi in Shaanxi. After Shaanxi Opera flowed into Sichuan, it merged with Lantern Opera and Gaoqiang Opera in northern Sichuan for a long time, and adopted Sichuan dialect, gradually forming a unique Sichuan Bangzi-Tanxi.

During the popular period in Sichuan, the above four kinds of foreign vocal cavity art were combined with Sichuan dialect and people's appreciation habits, and gradually evolved into five kinds of Sichuan opera vocal cavities: Kunqu Opera, Gaoqu Opera, Hu Opera, Dan Opera and Deng Opera.

The difference between Sichuan Opera and other operas lies in its particularly high tone.
