Introduction to Dapingdiao

Applicant: Jun County, Henan Province

Xunxian County, Henan Province, is the main distribution area of Xilu Dapingdiao. Its performance art is broad and simple, and its body shape is similar to the social fire, lantern painting and temple mural. There is no lack of real swords and guns in traditional martial arts dramas, and their facial makeup, colorful head, flamethrower and tusks are more unique. There are more than 400 pieces of gongs and drums and more than 80 kinds of singing styles in the music of Jun county's Dapingdiao. In more than ten traditional operas, such as dadengzhou and yuheguan, there are music structures of Qupai style in varying degrees (even some of the whole opera), which provides a new cultural research topic for the academic circles.

At present, the social basis for the survival and development of Xi Lu Da Ping Diao has changed. The actors are out of date, the market competitiveness is not strong, the performance equipment can not be updated, the performance income is declining, and it is difficult to continue.
