Yangko can be regarded as a spontaneous mass entertainment, so it incorporates some simple folk art performance concepts. I have compiled the knowledge introduction of Northeast Yangko, welcome to enjoy and learn.

Introduction to the Origin of Northeast Yangge

The origin of Manchu yangko is very early. According to records, in the 19th year of Kangxi (1680), on the occasion of the New Year, "Zhang Jing, the Eight Banners and soldiers all ate and drank ... disguised as women, singing songs and operas of' Pray for Yang Ke'". According to textual research, "Pray for Yang Ke" should be a transliteration of "Yangko". In the early years of Kangxi, Vencent Yang wrote "A Brief Introduction to Liu Bian", which recorded the action and performance form of "recklessness" at that time: "There is a big banquet in Manchuria, and men and women in the host family will change dances, with sleeves on their foreheads and sleeves on their backs, circling and posing, which is called recklessness. In a person's song, everyone uses the word' empty qi' to summarize it, which is called' empty qi'. " There is even a poem supporting the song and dance activities of the Manchu ancestors in the Brief Introduction to Liu Bian: "After the horse idles in the autumn grass, people are drunk in the evening breeze, and they are unscrupulous and carefree for 20 years." "In the middle of the night, the village girl sings yangko with the renewal front, and the Han family wears less border customs, and Hull has several teams around."

The Manchu yangko, which was formed during the reign of Kangxi in the Qing Dynasty, has become an indispensable spiritual food in the life of Manchu people in the historical evolution and development.

The word "yangko" is said in China Dance Dictionary: "It comes from the songs sung by farmers when transplanting rice seedlings and ploughing fields." Yangge originated from agricultural labor life. The New Year Miscellaneous Songs written by A Qing writer Wu Xilin holds that yangko evolved from Tianle Village in Song Dynasty. Both Murata Music and Yangko originated from agricultural labor life, and it is entirely possible that there is a relationship of inheritance.

Northeast Manchu Yangko is a popular form of song and dance, which is formed by folk entertainment. Manchu is an indigenous people in the northeast of China. Manchu culture has a long history. It includes folk literature, music, dance, acrobatics and other art forms. There are many kinds of Manchu folk songs and dances, such as "reckless dance", "Dawukui dance" and "savage dance". Yangge is also a mass song and dance entertainment activity originated from Shaman culture. So far, it has a long history of about 300 years.

Any art comes from social life, especially folk art, and Manchu yangko comes from Manchu folk life and shaman dance, and inherits the concept of animism in shaman culture. At the same time, it is closely related to the production and life of Manchu. Since Manchu in history belongs to the fishing, hunting and grazing ethnic group, the content of yangko is also related to the content of its national production and life. Generally speaking, the traditional Manchu yangko is divided into six parts: 1. Go out; 2. Eagle hunting; 3. fishing; 4. propose marriage; 5. triumph; 6. Celebrate (recklessly). A traditional Manchu yangko, like a song and dance performance, vividly shows the scene of Manchu production and life.

Introduction to the Cultural Background of Northeast Yangko

The earliest yangko in China originated in the Central Plains and later spread to the Northeast. It was cultivated and developed by the Han and Manchu people. During the Shunzhi period of the Qing Dynasty, "Bin Yang" once recorded in "A Brief Introduction to Liu Bian": "On the Lantern Festival, a busybody played yangko." It can be seen that the spread and development of Yangko in Northeast China has a history of at least 300 years. There are three kinds of northeast yangko: 1, stilt yangko 2, duet 3 and ground yangko. Handkerchiefs and fans are often used in yangko performances, and other props are also very useful, such as jade seeds. The music of Northeast Yangko is also very distinctive, among which suona and cymbals are commonly used musical accompaniment instruments. The style and characteristics of Northeast Yangko can be summarized as "calm", which is an artistic summary of the rough and simple spiritual quality, personality psychology and life interest of Northeast people.

Introduction of appreciation knowledge of northeast yangko

In the form of Yangko in the northeast of Han nationality, the dance styles are mainly walking, steady, drum and towel flower (the name of specific dance training content). Appreciating the Northeast Yangko depends on the dancer's footwork and the beauty of bottom-up coordination on the dancer's body, that is, whether the dancer shows a kind of twist driven by the kick and the coordination between the flowers around the wrist in the dance dynamics.

Another important point to appreciate the Northeast Yangko is the performance skills of towel flowers. Towel flowers are what we often call "handkerchiefs" in our lives. In dance, towel flower is not only the expression of skill, but also one of the main means to express emotion. In dance, different towel tricks and rhythm changes are often used to express different characters. It can not only show the beauty and shyness of a big girl with a beautiful "sketch flower" (a trick of towel flower), but also show the beauty and fierceness of a little girl with a flexible and crisp "Xiaoyan spreading her wings" (a combination of dance movements and towel flowers), which is the main link to highlight the mobility in dance performance.

Of course, in addition, we also need to look at the inner rhythm and physical control ability of the actors in the dance. In short, excellent dancers can always put their own dance performances with ease and dazzle the audience in dance appreciation.
