Historical origin
Hangzhou Ci Commentary was formed at the end of Ming Dynasty and the beginning of Zhao Dynasty. It evolved from Nanci Ci and was called "document" at that time. It is also called "Qinshu" because it plays Erhu as its main accompaniment instrument.
This kind of music began to flourish in the middle of the Qing Dynasty. There were more than 80 artists in the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China.
In the four years of the Republic of China (1915), the "Popular Education Society for Ci Comments" and "Guangyu Society for Ci Comments" were established, and several schools of art were formed.
In 1958, Hangzhou Ci-commenting artists all joined the Hangzhou Quyi Troupe.
