Drama history

Yiyang tune was introduced into Changde earlier, and opera activities were quite prosperous in Wanli period of Ming Dynasty. According to Yuan Zhongdao's Ju Shi Lu and Ying Long's Answer to the Central Plains Phonology, besides Yiyang Opera, there were Kunshan Opera, Qingyang Opera and Chu Opera. At that time, Chu tune refers to the high notes evolved from Yiyang tune.

Since Kangxi in the Qing Dynasty, Shaanxi Opera, Su Ju Opera and Anhui Opera have been introduced. By the time of Qianlong and Jiaqing, Tan Qiang Opera's North-South Road (Pihuang) gradually became the main voice of Changde Han Opera, while Gaoqiang and Kunqiang gradually declined. 19 10 or so, the bomb room is dominant, and there are four famous classes: Tianyuan, Ruining, Wenhua and Le Tong.

In addition, there are some unique vocals, such as South to North, Zimu tune, Taiqiang tune and Ugly foot tune. Accompaniment music emphasizes suona blowing, and in the treatment of tunes, it uses a variety of variations, tone sandhi and tone sandhi to develop music, which is rich in changes and is called "five internal and eight external tones".

Because he is good at bow circus and attaches importance to percussion, there is a saying that "gongs and drums are half a stage"
