Who designed "Dancing in Dresses and Feathers"
Du You's "General Canon", he also has a book "Li Yao", which records: "In the thirteenth year of Tianbao, the title of the song was changed in July, and the song" Brahman "was changed to" Nishang Feather ". Before that, there was no such name as "Nishang Feather". When Yang Yuhuan had this name, he was 36 years old and fat, so it was impossible to dance in person. By the way, I said last class that "there is evidence that later generations tampered with Chen Hong's" The Legend of Eternal Sorrow ". This is one: It is obvious that Yang Yuhuan "played colorful feathers to guide him on the day he entered the venue" on the pass, which is the nonsense of the tamper. Yang Yuhuan should be the chief choreographer, choreographer and director of dress and feather dance rehearsals. If you just jump, it's too small for her. This piece of music has twelve passages, which are very long, scattered, adagio and urgent. Yang Yuhuan's composition should not only have the femininity of traditional square dance, but also have the quickness of western dance Hu Xuan, which is in perfect harmony with music. The Book of Old Tang Dynasty records that Yang Yuhuan is "plump, good at singing and dancing, fluent in melody and extremely intelligent". Her talents are manifold. Someone went to Shu County and returned to the imperial court. She presented a Rosa ebony pipa. Yang Yuhuan often plays this pipa in the pear garden, with a clear voice, and many princesses compete to become her disciples. Yang Yuhuan is also a master of percussion. When she plays, her voice is "high-pitched", which is beyond the reach of a disciple in the pear garden. Speaking of Li Yuan's disciples, audience friends all know that Tang is the ancestor of Li Yuan. The Book of New Tang? 6? 1 Record of Rites and Music: "Xuanzong not only knows the melody, but also loves French music. He selected 300 children of geisha in the left to teach in the pear garden. If the voice is wrong, the emperor will recognize it and correct it, and seal him as a disciple of the emperor's pear garden. " French music is composition. According to records, he composed more than 40 songs. Unfortunately, all the songs are lost, only the title is left. One of them is "Colorful Feather", which is based on the Indian Sanskrit "Our Western Era" brought by Yang. From this point of view, "Nishang Feather" is a masterpiece of music and dance in Tang Dynasty, which was arranged by Li Longji and directed by Yang Yuhuan. It is no exaggeration to say that at that time in the 8th century, Li Longji and Yang Yuhuan were two world-class artists. "Half-life wisdom and half-life ignorance are the merits and demerits of historians", which is what Li Longji said. This is a very complicated historical figure. He is not only a great British master, but also a bad king who indulges in debauchery and treachery. But historians have their own comments on the theory of right and wrong, and we don't talk much about this poetry course. If it weren't for Bai Juyi's Song of Eternal Sorrow, we wouldn't have talked about Tang Huangming and Yang Guifei at all. If Li Longji and Yang Yuhuan hadn't left poems, we wouldn't have this course today. There are two lines in Bai Juyi's song of clothes and hats: "Everything has its origin, and Yang Chuangsheng composes music." In other words, Yang Yuhuan not only created dances for Li Longji's colorful feathers, but also accompanied them with lyrics, which shows that Yang Yuhuan can write poems.
