Traditional repertoire of Sichuan dulcimer

Take a combination of narrative and endorsement. Except for the beginning and end of each paragraph and a few lyrics interspersed in the middle of the paragraph to explain the characters, plots or environments in the third person, the main lyrics and chanting are the first-person language of the characters. The tracks are divided into two categories: big version and single fold. Big Ben also performs in stages for about half an hour at a time. Big Ben has many programs, such as The Three Kingdoms, The Bulletin of the Nations, Pipa, The Legend of the White Snake, The Jade Hairpin, The White Rabbit, The Pavilion of Qingfeng and The Jade Dragonfly. Huang Jian, a playwright in the late Qing Dynasty, wrote some dulcimer books, such as Guiluji, Black Lake, Mulan Joining the Army and Fisherman's Sword, which are called "Yellow Books".

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the dulcimer in Sichuan has been revived and developed, attracting actresses, developing forms such as performing singing and solo singing from multiple angles by one person, and creating modern tracks such as Jiang Jie in Prison, Seeing the Sword, Riverside of Qingxi and Visiting Family.
