Yu opera is one of the five major Chinese opera genres, originating in Kaifeng, Henan Province. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, Henan was shortened to "Yu", so it was called Yu opera. Yu Opera is based on the Henan Opera, constantly inherited, reformed and innovated and developed. Yu Opera is known for its resonant and atmospheric singing style, its measured cadence, its smooth flow, its clear diction, its mellow flavor, its vividness, and its ability to express the inner feelings of the characters, and it is so popular because of its high degree of artistry that it has been praised by the West as the "Oriental Aria".
