historical origin
In the late Ming Dynasty, Tongzhou Bangzi had a group performance. According to Wang Mouer, an old artist of Tongzhou Bangzi (middle of Qing Guangxu), Li Zicheng led the peasant rebellion army to train in Xiaotong, Pucheng (south of county, near Weinan) during Chongzhen (1628-1644), and used Tongzhou Bangzi Opera as a military entertainment officer. They were then brought into Beijing. It also spread to the Central Plains, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Huguang and other places. Folk proverbs circulated in Dali and other places: "A donkey's joy comes out of the south of the city (indicating Lu Ziqian, an artist of Tongzhou Bangzi at the end of the year). It can roar into the sky with a single sound. No opera, no tangle, keep up with the blind Li (that is, Li Zicheng) through Tongtian. Nanjing and Yanshan became popular, but they lost their lives outside. In Qing Xuke's Barnyard Banknotes, he also said, "The Qin Opera has existed in the Ming Dynasty, as evidenced by Li Zicheng." In the past three years (1664), together with Xijing Ran Tan, there were Zoujia Class of Tongzhou Bangzi. Famous artists included Huangjuhua (artistic name) in Heyang and Baipeony (artistic name) in Tongzhou.
During the reign of Qianlong (1736-1795), like Bangzi's and Qin's tunes in Zhouzhou, the various types of tunes with different forms of slab have basically formed, and gradually formed their unique musical characteristics. The tunes have "flat side two tunes", accompanied by two strings. The instruments include the moon piano, amber, pipa, etc. The "three-eye tune" is set, which runs side by side with the Riquan tune and Weinan tune formed at the same time. Keep pace. At the same time, there emerged a group of artists such as Xiaohui in Tongzhou, Huangsan in Pucheng, Guojiu in Xier Chengcheng in Chang'an, Zhou Zhizhi in Zhufeng Band and Shuangfeng Band. Among them, Xiaohui and Xiaohui went to Xi'an to set up Shuangqing Branch to perform, and together with Xianglin in Weinan Opera, they won the reputation of "Three Excellents" in Guanzhong Opera.
During the period from Jiaqing to Guangxu (1796-1908), it was the peak of the development of Tongzhou Rongzi. Various singing patterns had been perfected, and there were two melodic forms of hard and bitter tones. There were abundant literary, martial arts instruments, gongs and drums scriptures and music cards. All kinds of colorful tunes had been perfected, and the performing skills had been greatly improved. Following the four major classes (Pan Hanlong Ban, Qi Tang Ban, etc.) and eight small classes (Baniu Village Ban, Liu Village Ban, etc.) of Daoguang Xianfeng (1821-1861), in the twenty years of Guangxu, there were more than 30 class societies, such as Qingtai Ban, Sanheban, Dushengban, and so on. The famous roles were Shengjiao Yunbao Er (Ma Zihong), accompanying officials and Dongzhi Er, and Danjiao had Xingyeer, Changsheng Er Er, Changsheng Er. Children, such as Wuwuzi, Huhuzi, clown soap, Lanzhou and so on. "Gai Shaanxi" Chang Ming Er and Xu Sheng Wang Moer have been working in Beijing for many years. Liwei Records Company has produced two albums of "White Snake Biography" and "Hanxing Tu" for Chang Ming Er. After Xue Gujiu, the "Twelve Red" in Weinan, came to Beijing to present his art, he took part in the performance of Zhili Bangzi Group and became famous in Beijing. Some artists have also set up Yitai Ban in Beijing, which has been performing in Beijing for many years. In addition, Liu Zhier, Bai Jiahong and a thunder waited for performances in Sichuan and Hubei. Dali Li Li Dogwa Ban and Chaoyi Xingsheng Ban went to Taiyuan, Shanxi Province and other places to perform. The repertoire was unprecedentedly rich, and a large number of manuscripts were handed down to the world. For example, dozens of manuscripts such as The Painter in Jiaqing Decade (1805) and Thorn Zhongshan (1808) were copied in the thirteenth year. Some scholars have also devoted themselves to script creation, such as Qingyun Anan written by Lei Xueqian in Heyang, Bitiansha written by Xu Panzhu, and many other publishing workshops have printed a large number of scripts, such as Tiejiao Tomb and Xiahe Dong, which are woodcarved in Sanyuan Tang of Dali, Qingyitang and Yongqing Tang of Huaxian.
In the early years of the Republic of China, Xi'an's "improved Qin Opera" led by Xi'an Yiyi Society developed rapidly. Class societies in Weinan, Dali, Huaxian, Pucheng and other places set off a trend of learning to sing "improved Qin Opera", abandoning the old habits of Tongzhou Bangzi, making the activity area of Tongzhou Bangzi shrink day by day, coupled with wars and famines. By the 1920s, the Bangzi group society dedicated to Tongzhou Bangzi had disappeared. Only Shi Jiaozi set up Tongzhou Bangzi Group to perform in Suide, northern Shaanxi. Famous artists such as Huayin Niu Baishun and Tongguan Zhu Chatang went to Lanzhou to perform in a group, while Zhao Jiemin, the "biting teeth" artist, went to Xi'an Yiyiyi Club to teach or perform in Qin Opera Club. Since the 1930s, it has become a great success.
After the founding of the People's Republic of China, under the guidance of the Communist Party of China's policy of "letting a hundred flowers blossom, weeding out the old and bringing forth the new", Tongzhou Bangzi was reborn. An exhibition was held in 1956. In 1957, Tongzhou Bangzi Class was set up in the provincial theatre school, and 80 students were recruited to teach with Tongzhou Bangzi veteran artists. Among them, Wang Mouer, Xiaodan Zhu Linfeng, Xiaodan Zhu Linfeng, Wenwu Xiaosheng Zhao Donglang, Dajing Wang Maicai, Erjing Wang Lai, Zhengdan Wang Zhixi, clown Liu Shansan, Xusheng He Xiangchu, Wu coach Zhang Jianlong and Huadan Wang Deyuan were invited to teach. (Flowering suddenly), musicians Wang Hongsheng, Duan Junfeng, Li Haiyun, Yao Jingui, Wang Ruiting, etc. While inheriting Tongzhou Bangzi, under the guidance of famous Peking Opera masters such as Shang Xiaoyun and Xu Biyun, the students studied and performed more than 30 operas and more than 90 zigzag operas. They also trained a group of band performers and participated in the performance of five provinces of Northwest China in 1958. In 1960, the Shaanxi Youth Actors'Association performed. Twelve young actors were awarded prizes, and the school's Bangzi troupe also won the title of "Red Scarf" troupe.
In 1961, Tongzhou Bangzi Band came to Beijing to perform such dramas as Breaking Ningguo, Shifokou and Yuanmen Chopper, which attracted the attention of theatre circles. Zhou Yibai watched the show in 1964. After graduation, the class was allocated to Weinan. Tongzhou Bangzi Theatre Troupe was founded in Weinan Special Zone. It was dissolved in 1966 because of the beginning of the "Cultural Revolution". In 1979, Tongzhou Bangzi Troupe of Shaanxi Province was restored in Xi'an. In addition to restoring the traditional repertoire, some new historical plays and modern plays were also experimentally performed, which once again gave Tongzhou Bangzi a new life.
