Brief introduction of Liaozhai folk songs:
Applicant: Zibo City, Shandong Province
Liaozhai folk songs are mainly spread in Zibo City, Shandong Province. Pu family and later generations are the main inheritors. Liaozhai folk music is a unique musical literary genre formed by Pu Songling, a great writer in the early Qing Dynasty, who combined his own libretto with the popular tunes of that time. Pu Songling's studio is called "Liaozhai", so it is called "Liaozhai folk music", and some people also call it "Pu Songling folk music".
Zichuan is one of the most important regions where folk songs are popular in Ming and Qing Dynasties. The Xipu Bijia family, who has been in Pu Songling's office for more than 30 years, is a rich and noble family, and has always had the tradition of writing and singing folk songs, which has prepared an excellent social atmosphere and conditions for Pu Songling to write folk songs. Pu Songling set the experience of his life, gathering the essence of the Qing Dynasty folk songs, taking the melody of Zhu Gong tune and the north and South tune together, and finished the creation of 15 pieces of ballad in his later years. Whether in literature or in music, these slang songs are of great value. The repertoire of Liaozhai folk songs includes "shua'er", "yu'erlang", "Pink Lotus" and "dieduanqiao".
Liaozhai slang songs vividly reflect the people's life in the late feudal era and are loved by the masses. They have been sung and circulated in the contemporary society for a long time and become a unique mass art form in Shandong. The unique charm of Liaozhai folk songs has influenced the development of other sister arts. Taking opera as an example, there are five tone opera, Liuzi opera, Sichuan Opera, Beijing opera, Qinqiang opera, Hebei Bangzi and so on.
There are 15 kinds of manuscripts of Liaozhai folk songs, which have been sorted out and published. There are more than 50 pieces of Qupai left. In 1962, more than 10 pieces of Qupai were collected. In recent years, more than 30 pieces of Qupai have been searched and translated from ancient books. There are still some lost Qupai to be found. Nowadays, people who can sing folk songs are getting old, and there are few researchers on folk songs. It is necessary to rescue and protect them.
