关于当代中国新十大少数民族舞剧述评

A New Review of Ten Ethnic Minority Dance-Dramas in Contemporary China

中国民族舞剧本体的叙事语言,主要是当代中国在戏曲舞蹈和中华武术基础上建构起来的"中国古典舞";这类舞剧在涉及区域性或少数民族题材时,必然会取用区域性的民俗舞以及相应少数民族的舞蹈来营造演述语境,并进一步强化其形象风貌和性格特征。本文以史为据,撷取当代中国兼具时代性和影响力的"十大少数民族舞剧"进行客观述评,作为《关于当代中国十大少数民族舞剧述评》的姊妹篇,除了重拾上一篇未曾涉及的"遗珠"之外,更重要的是探寻民族舞剧叙事语言更为丰富的形态构成,从而进一步促使我们去反思民族舞剧叙事语言的建构机制。

Introduction: Reflections on the Construction Mechanism of the Narrative of National Dance-drama This paper is a sequence to the Review of Ten Ethnic Minority Dance-drama of Contemporary China. Chinese ethnic minority dance-drama is a subordinate concept under Chinese national dance-drama which is largely equal to Chinese classical dance derived from traditional Chinese opera dance and Chinese martial arts in terms of narrative. When it tells a regional or ethnic theme, this genre of dance will also use the corresponding regional folk dance and ethnic dance to create the context, and further strengthen its image, style and character.As the Review of Ten Ethnic Minority Dancedramas in Contemporary China picked only the single best and the most representative dance-drama of each ethnic group, it is inevitable that some excellent pieces are left out. Expanding the coverage of review will allow us to appreciate their narrative better and enable us to reflect on the construction mechanism of the narrative of national dance-drama.
