There are many excellent traditional dramas and dances in various local and ethnic dramas in Yunnan Province. They are another dazzling dance pearl in the treasure house of Yunnan national dance art, and there are more than ten kinds of local and national dramas in Yunnan Province. Such as Yunnan Lantern Festival, Yi Lantern Festival, Yunnan Opera, Guansuo Opera, Duangong Opera, Bai Opera, Yi Opera, Dai Opera, Zhuang Opera, Yi Lantern Festival, Blowing Opera, Daci Opera, Zanha Opera, Nuo Opera, Xiangtong Opera, Zitong Opera, Waqing Opera and Shadow Play. Most of these local and ethnic dramas are inextricably linked with the traditional dance culture of various ethnic groups. They learn from each other, promote each other and complement each other, and inherit, spread, innovate, develop and create Yunnan national dance from different angles and channels. Therefore, it has greatly promoted the historical process of Yunnan national dance, and it is an academic theoretical topic with great historical and practical significance to explore and study the phenomena and artistic laws of excellent traditional dances and national dramas in Yunnan. Kunming, Yuxi, Midu, Jianshui, Mengzi, Dayao, Yao 'an, Chuxiong, Songming, Chenggong, Luoping, Shizong and other counties and cities in northeast Yunnan Province have developed economies, a long history and earlier cultural origins. After Qin, Han, Nanzhao (Tang), Dali (Song), Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, it changed to 195 1 year ago. According to "Huayang National Records Pedestrian Song", "Hande is broad and upright, crossing Bonan, Jin Lan and Lancang for others". Tang Zhuo Fan's "Schumann Yellow Crane Jiake" said: "Winter wants to return, Gaoligong Mountain snows, autumn wants to return, summer wants to return, and spring cannot return." "New Tang Book": "Feng Jiayi (Nanzhao King) entered the DPRK, happy to return to his hometown and happy to China." Xu Jiarui said in the "Dali Ancient Culture History Draft": "Nanzhao music is the biggest part of China music ... Today, Dali's songbook (that is, the play book) is very old." The Biography of Dali Kingdom in the History of Song Dynasty contains: "In the sixth year of Zhenghe (116) ... there was a musician who was good at illusion, that is, the legacy of Xuanxuan in Daqin, and gave a banquet to the five sons of the famous flower." From this point of view, Yunnan had a dramatic artistic background in the Han, Tang, Song and Yuan Dynasties. During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, a large number of Chinese cultures were continuously integrated into Yunnan through "Wuchi Road", "Bonan Ancient Road" and "Southwest Yi Road", and they had close exchanges with the Yi, Bai and Han cultures in Yunnan. Due to the favorable natural conditions in Yunnan, the local national arts and culture have developed rapidly. For thousands of years, all the fraternal nationalities in Yunnan Province have lived in harmony and friendly exchanges, especially a large number of Chinese cultures have been integrated into the Yi and Bai nationalities in history. Therefore, the cultural exchanges between the Yi, Bai and Han nationalities are particularly close, and the favorable natural and geographical conditions in the territory make their economic and cultural development faster. In the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, Kunming, Yuxi, Midu, Jianshui, Mengzi, Chuxiong, Chenggong and other counties and cities entered the feudal economic society, but the primitive commune system and the remnants of slavery still existed in minority villages in mountainous areas. During this period, the Han, Yi, Bai and other ethnic groups in Kunming, Yuxi, Midu, Jianshui and other areas in Yunnan generally had the tradition of believing in religion. There are many Buddhist, Taoist and Confucian festivals in these areas within one year. During each festival, local people will hold grand sacrificial activities and song and dance performances. Those middle-aged and old men and women who believe in Buddhism, Taoism and Confucianism often go to temples or Buddhist temples at home to chant Buddhist scriptures, fast and eat vegetarian food, and participate in various comprehensive folk activities that integrate religious sacrifices, folk customs, song and dance entertainment and trade gatherings. The birth and death, weddings and funerals, food, clothing, housing and transportation, ethics, religious beliefs and other aspects of ethnic minorities are reflected and manifested in their primitive culture and art. We find that in the long-term special historical development process, people of all ethnic groups have their own unique customs and habits in marriage, funeral, childbirth, festivals, food, housing, clothing, etiquette, entertainment and other aspects. The primitive traditional culture, art and lantern dance of Yunnan ethnic minorities are indispensable carriers of their spiritual and material cultural life. It can be said that primitive traditional culture and art, lantern dance and multiculturalism are everywhere in various fields of Yunnan ethnic minorities. Traditional festivals and celebrations unique to all ethnic groups in Yunnan are extremely colorful. There is a festival or celebration almost every few days in the twelve months of the year. No wonder it is called "three days and one celebration, five days and one celebration". Since the Ming and Qing Dynasties, lantern dance has gradually been integrated into these traditional festivals and comprehensive customs activities. For example, among the main festivals of the Bai people, there are moon worship, March Street, Song Festival, Gegen Festival, Sea Festival and Sea Lantern Festival; Around Sanling, Tian, Transplanting Competition, Spring Festival in the first month, Torch Festival, Song Festival, October Festival, Flower Festival, Vulcan Festival, Street Opening Festival, Flower Festival and Yi Flower Festival. The traditional festivals and celebrations of the above-mentioned regions and nationalities are also different. For example, the "Tufeng Festival" of the Bai people and the "Tufeng Festival" of the Yi people have festivals in almost twelve months of the year. This can be seen from the richness of traditional festivals and celebrations of various ethnic groups in Yunnan, as well as the lanterns and dances widely circulated in Yunnan. The traditional folk lantern dance, which spreads among all ethnic groups in Yunnan, is an amazing and convincing art treasure house. According to the field investigation we have participated in for more than 40 years, there are about 400 different traditional routines and dances in Yunnan Lantern Dance. The content of its dance performance involves all fields of human social life, and its artistic expressions are varied and extremely colorful.
