The Development Background of Jiangxi Gan Opera

The origin and predecessor of Gan Opera is Yiyang Opera, which is one of the four famous ancient songs. In 1950s, Yiyang Opera was renamed Gan Opera. Gan Opera is known as the "living fossil" of China Opera and the "originator" of Peking Opera. Its development has had a far-reaching impact on the formation of Beijing Opera, Sichuan Opera, xiang opera and Shaanxi Opera. The formation of Jiangxi opera has gone through a long historical stage.

After the Song and Yuan Dynasties, Southern Opera began to spread in the southeast provinces of China. Raozhou and Guangxin in the northeast of Jiangxi were once subordinate to Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces, and were included in Jiangxi Province in the early years of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty. Due to the convenience of transportation and trade, Southern Opera was introduced into Yiyang County, Guangxin Prefecture. At that time, the Southern Opera, which settled in Yiyang County, specially staged the opera "Mulian Save Mother".

Due to the influence of local religious ideas, this kind of drama has gradually changed, thus forming a kind of southern drama with Jiangxi characteristics, called "Yiyang Opera", which keeps pace with other southern operas in Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces. During Chenghua and Hongzhi of Ming Dynasty (1465- 1505), Zhu Yunming mentioned Yiyang tune in Jiangxi, which is the oldest tune in Jiangxi opera.
