How to inherit and carry forward the art of Peking Opera

Inherit and carry forward the artistic requirements of Peking Opera;

1, that is, go deep into life and strengthen creation. Into the depths of life, we should dig up materials and find stories from people's daily life, draw inspiration from people's aesthetic needs and refine themes, so that Beijing opera creation can gain vigorous vitality, make artists more grounded, make grassroots become an inexhaustible source of artistic creation, and find materials that truly reflect people's lives.

2. It is to inherit the tradition and bring forth the new. The art of Peking Opera is developed on the basis of inheriting the ancestors, and it also glows with great vitality through innovation and creation. We should not only inherit the classics, but also dare to create, explore and modernize boldly.

3. Serving the people, creating and performing at the same time. Creation must be performed, and good works are tested by performance practice. If a new work can only be performed a few times, it is hard to say that it is good or successful.

4. It is to cultivate talents and cultivate audiences. For the art of Peking Opera, the role is fundamental and the audience is the foundation. It is a long-term basic work to inherit the art of Peking Opera to train a large number of actors with both ability and political integrity, complete majors and various genres, and to train a large number of audiences who are willing to go into the theater to enjoy Peking Opera.

Extended data:

The four artistic skills of Beijing opera performance: singing, reading, doing and playing are also the four basic skills of Beijing opera performance.

Singing refers to singing, while reciting refers to musical chanting, which complement each other and form a "song", which is one of the two major elements of the performing arts of singing, dancing and Peking Opera. Doing refers to the body movements, fighting and tumbling skills of dance, which are combined with each other to form a "dance", which is one of the two major elements of the performing arts of song, dance and Beijing opera.

Opera actors should be trained from these four aspects since childhood, although some actors are good at singing (singing to the old age), some are mainly engaged in work (Hua Dan), and some are mainly engaged in martial arts (Jason Wu). But every actor must have four basic skills: singing, reading, doing and acting. Only in this way can we give full play to the artistic characteristics of Beijing opera. Better express and portray all kinds of characters in the play.

Beijing opera is a highly comprehensive art, with singing, dancing, dialogue, martial arts and various symbolic movements.
