“水袖”在中国古典舞中的运用与衬托

Application of “Shuixiu”to Chinese Classic Dance

中国古典舞中运用的水袖正是借鉴戏曲中的"水衣"而来。水袖是肢体的延伸,正是这种延伸给予舞蹈更大的表现力和创作空间。水袖舞在韵律上,既有古典舞身韵"形、神、劲、律"的特征,也有"欲前先后、欲左先右"的动作规律。水袖在舞者的指挥下时而像河水般的温婉,时而像剑器般的刚毅。水袖在古典舞中运用了"转似回波"的圆、"行云流水"的线,恰到好处地阐释出袖舞,衬托了古典舞的美。这种中国文化特质的审美理念,正是中国古典舞的美之所在。

＂Shuixiu＂ in Chinese classic dance comes from ＂Shuiyi＂ in traditional Chinese opera. Shuixiu dance is characteristic of Chinese classic dance, also characteristic of movement rules. Controlled by dancer, shuixiu is as soft as a river water, sometimes as resolute and steadfast as a sword. Circle and line are embodied in shuixiu dance to present the beauty of classic dance.
