Yicheng Qinshu is a native folk art of rap and singing, commonly known as "local book" on the fertile soil of Yicheng, Shanxi Province, which has thousands of years of cultural heritage. According to the records of Yicheng County Chronicle and Liyuan Centennial Trivial Records, Yicheng Qinshu originated in the prosperous period of Yuan Dynasty miscellaneous opera and was popular in Henan, Shaanxi and Shanxi provinces with Yicheng as the center. With a long history and unique charm, it can be regarded as a wonderful flower of folk art.
Yicheng Qinshu was a folk song in its early stage. The singing artists, with a violin, a wooden fish and an octagonal drum, played and sang by themselves, traveling through villages and alleys. Every place, in the streets, alleys or people's courtyards, set up a table, one person holding cymbals or playing piano, one hand pulling four beards, at the same time, one foot stepping on the Wooden Bangles tied with ropes, hitting small wooden fish fixed on the table, both hands and feet, playing and singing together. When singing emotional climax, the lead singer holds the octagonal drum, beats the drum point with the finger, while dancing the silk ears of the drum body, appears particularly beautiful and wonderful.
During the Ming and Qing dynasties, the number of people in the Qinshu group gradually increased to three to five. Meanwhile, Banhu, flute and other musical instruments were added. New developments have also been made in tunes. At the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the Republic of China, the singing art of "floor stall" was gradually formed, which was sung by people and accompanied by many people.
Since the 1970s, Yicheng Qinshu has carried out bold reforms on the basis of inheriting the tradition. Literary and artistic workers in Yicheng County tried to change the role-based singing of Yicheng Qinshu into the role-playing singing of actors, from the "floor stall" to the stage performance. At the same time, music has added drum board, horse gong, Gong and high-pitched Banhu music. After years of tempering and reform, a unique new local opera has gradually formed, known as "Yicheng Qin Opera". In 1982, the Yicheng Qin Opera Troupe was formally established, marking the formal transformation of Yicheng Qin scripts from the form of opera to the form of opera.
Yicheng Qin opera has absorbed the essence of local opera, eyebrow and folk music in its continuous development, making music and music more colorful. In the selection of plays, the traditional operas Shanshiting and Xianliangzhuan were carefully rehearsed to make this new art of piano opera shine brilliantly on the stage. At the same time, the Qin Opera Troupe has also arranged modern operas in a rigid manner, which has greatly boosted the reputation of the Qin Opera.
