內容簡介
Chinese opera mainly incorporates three different forms of art， namely， folk singing and dancing， talking and singing， and farce. Deriving from primitive singing and dancing， it integrates diverse stage arts and boasts a time-honored history. Starting from the Han Dynasty and through to the Tang， Song and Jin periods， it finally blossomed into an integral art form. Absorbing the merits of literature， music， dance， fine arts， martial arts， acrobatics and performing art， it encompasses more than 360 forms， and is characterized by mixing multiple forms of art according to a certain standard and presenting unique individuality among the common attributes. As one of the world's three major ancient opera cultures， the other two being Greek tragedy and comedy and Indian Sanskrit drama， Chinese opera falls into a wealth of categories. Incomplete statistics show that there are about 360 forms of opera in different regions of Cluna， with thousands of traditional repertoires.
