Recently, the CCTV comprehensive channel "National Treasures · Performance Season" came to an end. In the program, 14 dancers from Zhejiang Song and Dance Theater jointly performed the group dance "Deer Singing Feast", using dance language to tell a story of the imperial examination spanning thousands of years to the national audience.
As a supporting derivative program of the "National Treasures" cultural relics special exhibition, "National Treasures Exhibition season" is a tour of traditional Chinese culture, bringing unique literary and artistic works and knowledge sharing to the national audience.
Zhejiang Ge's interpretation of "Deer Ming Feast" is related to the ancient imperial examination. In China, since the Tang Dynasty, the ancient imperial examination system has been divided into two disciplines, civil and martial arts, because after the end of the township examination and the temple examination, there will be different banquets, so there are deer singing banquets and Qionglin banquets as liberal arts banquets; eagle Yang banquets and huiwu banquets are the difference between martial arts banquets. In the hearts of the literati, the first of the four banquets of the imperial examination is the "Deer Ming Feast".
In front of the screen, the audience fully appreciated the youth strength of the Zhejiang Song and Dance Troupe. The dancers performed a group of readers with gold list titles, and at the "Deer Ming Feast", every move, whirling and turning, full of pride, showing the brilliance and splendor of the ancient imperial examination and education and cultural system in more than a thousand years.
This "Deer Feast" gives people a familiar sense of strangeness. Judging from the wear and style of the dancers, this group of "reading people" came from a thousand years ago, but the mood and state of "life must be happy" in their bodies is no different from the people at present, and the audience can feel a strong national wind.
According to reports, since the beginning of this year, in addition to the men's group dance "Deer Ming Feast" debuted in the "National Treasure Exhibition season", Zhejiang Song also has the "Late Return of The Mulberry Picking" and "Picking Tea New Rhyme" jointly performed by the Butterfly Women's Music and Dance Performance Center to participate in the recording of CCTV-15 "Fenghua Chinese Music" and has been broadcast on the CCTV Music Channel for many times. At the same time, the Zhejiang song folk music "Qu Shui Liu Qian" was also invited to participate in the recording of the CCTV comprehensive channel "Gu Yun He New Year", which will be broadcast on the afternoon of January 31, 2022 (Chinese New Year's Eve) on the CCTV comprehensive channel (CCTV-1).
