Types and artistic characteristics of traditional opera

(1) Comprehensive.

Chinese opera is a highly integrated national art. This synthesis is reflected not only in its integration of various artistic disciplines (such as dance, acrobatics, etc.), but also in its exquisite and profound performing arts. A variety of different artistic factors are closely integrated with the performing arts, and the full function of the opera is realized through the performances of the actors.

2) Virtuality.

Virtuality is the basic technique by which opera reflects life. It refers to the performance of actors, using a deformed way to compare the real environment or object, so as to express life. The virtuality of Chinese opera is first manifested in the flexibility of stage time and space processing, the so-called "three or five walks all over the world, six or seven people and a million soldiers", "a thousand years of career in an instant, the abbot is thousands of miles away", which breaks through the limitations of the "three-in-one" and "fourth wall" of Western opera.

Secondly, in terms of the specific stage atmosphere scheduling and the actors' simulation of certain life actions, such as wind and rain, threading needles and threads, etc., more concentrated and distinctively reflect the virtual characteristics of opera. Opera masks are also a virtual way.

The virtuality of Chinese opera is not only the result of the limitations of the simple stage and backward stage art technology, but also the product of the accumulation of traditional national aesthetic ideas that pursue god-likeness and depict gods in form. It is a creation of beauty. It greatly liberates the creativity of writers and stage artists and the artistic imagination of the audience, so that the aesthetic value of opera has been greatly improved.

3) Programmability.

The program is a form of expression in which opera reflects life. It refers to the standardization, dance, and reuse of life movements. The program is directly or indirectly involved in life, but it is formed by refining, generalizing, and beautifying life according to certain norms.

It embodies the painstaking efforts of artists throughout the ages, and it has become the starting point for the artistic re-creation of a new generation of actors, so that the art of opera performance can be passed on from generation to generation. A good artist is able to break through some of the limitations of the program and create his own personalized normative art. Programs are a model of beauty.
