Yiyang Troupe came to Laizhou to perform and settled in the cellar woven by Laizhou people. During this period, artists often sing some ballads for the local people in Laizhou. These songs are easy to sing, remember and sing, and spread quickly in the local area.
Local artists in Laizhou followed and imitated the mode of "misusing local accent" in Yiyang dialect, absorbed Jiaodong folk tunes and evolved into new local operas. Because the main play is the story of Han Xiangzi, Han Yu, Han Xiangzi's uncle, has gone through many difficulties and dangers and adopted the homonym of "difficult", hence the name "Languan" drama.
Lan Guan Opera is very popular with people. It is well known in the local area that "Lan Guan opens the stage and his wife takes off her shoes and runs" and "I'd rather freeze to death when I go to Lan Guan Opera".
182 1 year, in the heyday of Languan Opera, more than a dozen "calligraphy classes" and a large number of singers specializing in this industry emerged one after another.
Dongji Class mainly plays Travel Notes to the East, which is called Wenlan Pavilion, while Longbu Class mainly plays The Journey to the West, which is called Wulan Pavilion. One article and one martial art, a sensation. As a result, Languan Opera flourished and opened up a communication area. First, it was introduced to Mahuigou, Guo Cheng, Maqu, Lijiatuan and other places in Yexian County, and once spread all over Shandong.
During the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty, artists from Longbu, Dongji, Mahuigou and Xiaohetou had a good relationship, and "non-Languan operas were not invited". Every temple fair and mountain meeting, artists from these villages get together to make friends and perform together. This feat created conditions for mutual absorption and mutual benefit in art.
With the passage of time and regional differences, Languan Opera gradually formed two roads: Longbu and Dongji. The artist said, "The blues of Shili are different, so you can't sing a tune." Thus, it presents the grand occasion of various factions competing for novelty and beauty. At this point, Languan Opera became famous.
Languan Opera Troupe is an amateur, spreading art during busy farming and slack farming, with the aim of educating people without paying. Its class associations are often called "face-to-face classes", "face-to-face classes" and "teasing children". Team leaders are honored as "masters", "teachers" or "principals", and most of them are local artists with deep artistic attainments or their own elders, and most of the students are local junior children and youth.
The activity of "dialing face" is not only an informal course, but also a regular course, so its tutorial system is not as strict as that of professional courses. This is often taught by neighbors, taken by neighbors, or passed down from generation to generation. In the "face-to-face class", students can't live without the master's biography and get along with each other day and night to listen to the teachings.
At the same time, teachers often get together during this period to learn from each other and gain from each other. Students rely on their word-for-word oral instruction, and their hands, eyes, body, methods and steps are also their words and deeds.
In this way, it will continue and never stop. Through year after year's "face-slapping" activities, generations of famous actresses of Lan Guan have been trained, and generations of artistic fashions have been derived, which are generally due to the expansion and continuation of their teachers.
During the light years of the Qing Dynasty, Ji Pijing of Laizhou East, Zhang Junchai of Laizhou Longbu, Guo Tonggong and Guo Fuxian of Mahuigou, and Wang of Xiaohetou in Zhaoyuan County all had their own teachers and made their own achievements. They became famous in the drama circles at that time and became the masters of Languan generation. At the same time, they can make suggestions and pass them on to future generations.
Then, during the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty, talents came forth in large numbers and the stars were shining. Among them, Zhang and Tang Jingxiang studied under Zhang Junzhai and. Discipline and patriarchal clan system. Wang He and Wang Xi Lian spread their skills to Zhou and others. Guo Tonggong and Guo Fuxian are also famous for teaching art to Guo and Yu Zhanhai.
The singing of Languan Opera has formed a perfect trinity structure of "helping, fighting and singing" in its historical development. For hundreds of years, it has maintained the artistic characteristics of "drums are the main festival, and the tune is loud" and "singing by one person and harmony by all", which is deeply loved by people from all directions.
