Abstract

As the most representative local opera in Shaanxi, Qinqiang has experienced thousands of years of development history. It began in the Qin and Han Dynasties, flourished in the Tang Dynasty, and spread in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. Qinqiang has undergone many transformations in its development. This article finds that the flow and development of Qinqiang are related to the promotion of the Shanxi and Shaanxi business communities. Even though Qinqiang was once popular all over the country, there are still some difficulties in its contemporary development, including the lack of successors to local opera repertoires, a significant reduction in the audience group, and the difficulty of new forces to continue. Based on this, this study believes that Qinqiang faces the difficulty of modern transformation. As a specialized institution integrating teaching and performance of Shaanxi Qinqiang, Yisu Society plays an important role in the development of modern Qinqiang.
