“丝绸之路”题材舞剧的民族化风格呈现——从《丝路花雨》到《丝绸之路》与《丝路长城》

The Representations of Nationalized Style in the Thematic Dance Drama Series of “the Silk Road”

"丝绸之路"在中国文化体系中占有重要地位,舞蹈也以自己独有的艺术魅力和语言特色进行丝路主题的创作。新时期中国舞蹈界掀起了新一轮的以"丝绸之路"为题材的舞剧创作高潮,涌现出了诸如《丝路长城》《丝绸之路》《碧海丝路》《丝路畅想》《圆梦丝路》等一系列舞剧作品。笔者选取了20世纪70年代末首部"丝路"题材的舞剧《丝路花雨》以及2016年新创舞剧《丝路长城》与《丝绸之路》为代表进行分析,讨论集中于如何在庞大的历史资源中架构起剧作并以舞蹈语言来进行表现,在舞剧的叙事性与表现性之张力中形成更强的艺术感染力。在此基础上,取更宏观的视角将其放在中国舞剧发展的文脉中以探讨其有哪些承继与新的突破,以及作为典型的中国题材怎样进行表现、如何进行当代转换以面对当下的观众等问题。
