Four major operas in Hubei

The four major operas in Hubei include Chu Opera, Han Opera, Ancient Painting Opera and Huangmei Opera.

1. According to the query of American films. Han Opera: Han Opera originated in Wuhan, eastern Hubei, and its singing methods are mainly Xipi and Huanger, which are high-pitched, vigorous, lively and smooth. Han opera has a long history. Peking Opera was born after Yu Sansheng and other ancestors returned to Beijing. There are many similarities between Beijing Opera and Han Opera. Peking Opera uses the vernacular, and the scripts are mainly historical romances and folklore, all of which are "big plays".

2. Chu Opera: Originated from Huangpi, it was originally named Huangxiao Huagu or Xilu Huagu, with a history of 170 years. Originally, it was just a little play sung by rural grass-roots teams. It was only in the Republic of China (65,438+0926) that it entered the city theater and was named Chu Opera. The lyrics of Chu Opera and Daobai are all in Huangpi dialect, and the tone is mainly sad and abrupt.

Huangmei Opera: Originated from Huangmei, formerly known as Huangmei Minor, it is widely popular in eastern Hubei and western Anhui. Before and after liberation, relying on Anqing Wharf (the capital of Anhui Province in those days), Yan Fengying and other famous actors sang red songs and made three films, A Fairy Match, butterfly lovers and Cowherd and Weaver Girl, which became so famous that most people thought Huangmei Opera was an Anhui local opera.

4. Flower Drum Opera: Flower Drum Opera originated in Tianmen and Mianyang, and was widely spread in Jianghan Plain, later called Jingzhou Flower Drum Opera. The melody is based on the melody of Daoqing, which is euphemistic and long.
