The origin of Peking Opera:
Background: Peking Opera originated in Beijing, and its formation and development are closely related to Beijing's culture, history and regional characteristics. As the capital of China, Beijing has attracted outstanding opera performances from all over the world, providing a fertile artistic soil for the formation of Peking Opera.
2. Huiban went to Beijing: In the fifty-fifth year of Qianlong (1790), in order to celebrate Qianlong's eightieth birthday, four Anhui Huiban performed in Beijing. Huiban has exquisite performing arts and rich repertoires, which are deeply loved by Beijing audiences. These Huizhou classes gradually took root in Beijing, laying the foundation for the formation of Peking Opera.
3. Integration and innovation: After Huiban entered Beijing, it constantly absorbed other traditional Chinese opera performing arts, such as Kunqu Opera and Shaanxi Opera, and gradually formed operas with Beijing characteristics. At the same time, Huizhou artists combine Beijing's language, music, dance and other elements to innovate and improve their performance skills.
4. Form a new kind of drama: After a long period of development and integration, Huiban gradually evolved into a new kind of drama-Pihuang Opera. Pihuang Opera, with Xipi and Huanger as the main vocals, has a variety of performances, including singing, reading, doing and playing. This kind of drama is the predecessor of Beijing Opera.
5. Maturity and prosperity of Peking Opera: With the passage of time, Pihuang Opera has continuously absorbed the strengths of other opera performing arts and gradually matured. During Guangxu period, many famous Peking Opera actors appeared, such as Tan Xinpei and Yang Xiaolou. Their superb performances and extensive influence have made Beijing opera flourish rapidly.
6. Inheritance and development: After the founding of New China, the government attached great importance to the inheritance and development of Peking Opera. Many Peking Opera performing artists actively participate in opera education and cultivate new people. At the same time, a large number of artistic innovations and reforms have been carried out, which has made Beijing opera glow with new vitality in the new era.
