In recent days, the classical dance programme Night Banquet in Tang Dynasty Palace created by Zhengzhou Song & Dance Theater has become a hot topic on China's social media platforms after its debut on the 2021 Henan TV Spring Festival Gala. The programme presents a banquet at which lovable ladies in the Tang Dynasty (618-907) sometimes dress themselves up and sometimes play together. Many say it is pretty much like walking in an ancient painting scroll which shows the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty in an incisive and vivid way and praise it as "Wonderful Night at the Museum Starring the Tang Ladies".

这几天,由郑州歌舞剧院创作的古典舞《唐宫夜宴》亮相2021年河南春晚后持续上微博热搜,刷屏微信朋友圈。节目中,参加夜宴的唐朝少女们“圆润讨喜”,她们时而梳妆打扮、时而嬉笑打闹,如同在古画中穿梭行走,将大唐盛世的繁华景象展现得淋漓尽致,被网友赞为“唐朝少女的博物馆奇妙夜”。

"Chinese classical dance is deeply rooted in the nation's excellent traditional culture, so every year we go to museums as a crucial source of inspiration for our creation. When we saw the distinctive singing and dancing figures unearthed of the Tang Dynasty at Henan Museum and Luoyang Museum, we began to think how to recreate such scenes in our dance work with artistic skills." Chen Lin, choreographer of Zhengzhou Song & Dance Theater, told the reporter on February 14. So the dance begins with a group of painted terracotta figures who "walk" out of the museum one after another as the chime and ancient flutes start playing, and then turn into the noble and lovable ladies of the Tang Dynasty.

“古典舞深深根植于中国优秀传统文化,我们每年都会去很多博物馆进行采风创作,当在河南博物院、洛阳博物馆看到极具特点的唐代乐舞俑造型后,我们就开始思考如何用艺术的手法将唐代的乐舞场景在舞蹈作品中呈现。”2月14日,《唐宫夜宴》主创、郑州歌舞剧院舞蹈编导陈琳说。于是,舞蹈有了这样的开头:编钟、古笛依次奏响,一群彩绘陶俑逐渐从博物馆中“走出来”,幻化成了唐宫少女,鲜活又生动。(中文来源/河南日报 翻译/赵汉青 海报/韩雨松 审校/丁岚)
