The Origin of Cantonese Opera
China's seven-character folk songs reached an unprecedented height in the Middle Ages, that is, the Wei, Jin and Tang Dynasties, and even formed a generation of literary styles-Tang poetry. These orderly folk songs not only formed the story-telling content, but also added the rhythm characteristics of Muyu Festival to the popular performances of Buddhist temples in the Tang Dynasty.
However, due to being at the bottom of society for a long time, and the influence of foreign music, banquet music (or Yan music) has been appreciated by the ruling class in the Tang Dynasty, so it has not been greatly developed. Ci music developed from banquet music, after Tang and Song Dynasties, formed a kind of drama with different rules as Gongdiao.
