Wonderful West River Large Song And Dance Show

“Beautiful Xijiang” is a large-scale original ecological Miao situational song and dance drama, divided into four chapters, which presents a panoramic view of the life of the Miao people. A national song and dance performance with “color, fragrance and taste” is unsatisfying. In the Miao Village of Qianhu, Xijiang, the Miao songs and dances shown in “Beautiful Xijiang” have stories, culture and characteristics, and are simple, rough and original, fully expressing the sincerity and simplicity of the Miao people. 1Maple Wood Transforms into Butterfly According to legend, the butterfly was born from the core of maple wood. The butterfly flew to the edge of the pond and fertilized with a bubble, laying 13 eggs, which were hatched by the Jiyu bird into the 12 zodiac animals and a beautiful Miao girl. Human beings were thus born, and the butterfly became the incarnation of the Miao butterfly mother and god. 02Migration The Miao people are an ancient ethnic group that once lived in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River. After failing in the ancient tribal war, in order to survive, during the long years of migration, the Miao people’s footprints were all over the mountains and rivers of China. The Miao people attach great importance to sacrifice, worship their ancestors, and respect the spirits of heaven and earth. Whenever they offer sacrifices, under the leadership of the drum head, that is, the head of the priest, they worship the ancestors and pray for good weather and good harvests! Prosperity of people and livestock! Happiness and peace! Bronze drum dance is a kind of dance with rhythmic drumming and dance movements and formation changes by the drummer. The dance posture is rough and flexible, the dance steps are vigorous and powerful, and the emotions are full, which fully reflects the bold and simple national character of the Miao people! Legend has it that the souls of the Miao ancestors live in the drums, and beating the bronze drums can let the ancestors hear the prayers of the sacrifice. 03 Ancient customs Love is an eternal topic for mankind. The Miao people advocate freedom of marriage and encourage young men to boldly pursue the girls they like. This is why there are traditional social festivals during the slack season, such as the Climbing Festival in April of the lunar calendar and the Malang Festival in June. Men and women travel around and play. If they really love each other, even if the two families are not “equally matched”, the Miao youth will secretly kiss and complete their own marriage. In terms of advocating free love, the romantic Miao people are many years ahead of other ethnic groups! 04 Miao Village Splendor There are more than 130 kinds of Miao costumes. It can be said that no other ethnic group in the world regards women’s costumes as important and sacred as the Miao. They wear totems on their heads and embroider wordless history books on their clothes. The beautiful Miao girls are dressed in their best clothes and walk towards you. The silver ornaments on their heads shine brightly with their brisk dance steps, and together with the colorful costumes, they interpret the beauty of the Miao mountains and rivers! The large-scale song and dance evening “Beautiful Xijiang” also arranged an interactive session for friends on the scene, allowing the audience to go on stage and participate in games with the Miao girls. The winner will receive a beautiful gift.
