Practical application of Yueqin

In the field of Peking Opera, Yueqin, Jinghu and Jingerhu are collectively known as the three major pieces. Henan Opera uses a large octagonal fretless moon qin to accompany it. Yueqin is also used to accompany rap music in Sichuan's voiceless tone. This form of folk art was developed from folk songs during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty. It is deeply loved by the people of Sichuan. Pipa or Yueqin accompany, so there is a saying of "singing the pipa" or "singing the moonqin"; after the 1950s, Sichuan's unvoiced sounds have been continuously enriched and improved, and the accompaniment instruments have also added Huqin, Wanqin, sandalwood and bamboo drums.

In the Yi area, the Yueqin is the main accompaniment instrument for folk songs and dances, and it also accompanies the Yi opera born in the 1950s. In Longlin, Guangxi, the Miao people often use the Yueqin to play instrumental ensembles or solos. In Hunan Channel, which is known as the "Hometown of Music", the Dong people often play the Yueqin together with Lusheng and other musical instruments. In Dali, Yunnan, the yueqin is a stringed musical instrument second only to the Bai nationality's leading three-stringed string, and is also used to accompany Bai Opera. Yueqin plays an important role in the musical life of the Yi, Hani, Miao and other ethnic minorities, and is often used in the social and romantic life of young men and women. In the traditional festivals of various ethnic groups and the festive "song dance" and "slope jumping" activities, it is an indispensable musical instrument for conveying feelings. One or more of the violin players dance while playing, and then the crowd dances in a circle.

Involving musical instruments

Yueqin (Pinyin: yuè qín), a plucked musical instrument of the Han nationality, originated in the Han Dynasty. It has been spread in China, Japan, the Korean Peninsula, and Vietnam. It is also spread in China and Vietnam. The early Yueqin had a long neck and generally had about twelve frets. In the Qing Dynasty, the short-necked Yueqin with the eighth rank or so appeared, which is easy to play in the high-pitched area, and is often used for the accompaniment of opera. After the development and improvement of Ruan in the 1950s, Yueqin usually refers to the short-necked Yueqin in mainland China.
