秧歌是中国（主要在北方地区）广泛流传的一种极具群众性和代表性的民间舞蹈的类称，不同地区有不同称谓和风格样式。在民间，对秧歌的称谓分为两种：踩跷表演的称为“高跷秧歌”，不踩跷表演的称为“地秧歌”。近代所称的“秧歌”大多指“地秧歌”。秧歌历史悠久，南宋周密在《武林旧事》中介绍的民间舞队中就有“村田乐”的记载，清代吴锡麟的《新年杂咏抄》中明文记载了现存秧歌与宋代“村田乐”的源流关系。现各地的秧歌一般以秧歌舞队为主要形态，舞队人数少则十数人，多时达上百人，既有集体舞，也有双人舞、三人舞等多种表演形式，根据角色的需要手持相应的手绢、伞、棒、鼓、钱鞭等道具，在锣鼓、唢呐等吹打乐器的伴奏下尽情舞蹈。各地秧歌的舞法、动作和风格各不相同，有的威武雄浑，有的柔美俏丽，千姿百态，美不胜收。
Yangge is the general name of a widespread and representative group-based folk dance in China (mainly in North China). It is known by different names and has different styles in various places. There are two main types of Yangge: “gaoqiao yangge (stilt yangge)”, which is performed on stilts, and “Ground Yangge”, performed without stilts. The “Yangge” we know in modern times mainly refers to the “Ground Yangge”. Yangge has a long history. It was recorded as “Cuntianle” in Memories of Wulin by Zhou Mi of the Southern Song Dynasty when introducing folk dance troupes. The relationship between what we call Yangge today and the “Cuntianle” in the Song Dynasty is recorded in Miscellaneous Odes to New Year by Wu Xilin of the Qing Dynasty. Today, Yangge is mainly performed by Yangge troupes, with each troupe consisting of dozens or even over 100 members, in the form of group dances, duo dances or trio dances, etc., and if required by the roles, performers may dance with the accompaniment of wind and percussion instruments like gongs, drums and sona, holding props like handkerchiefs, umbrellas, bars, drums or copper cash whips. Yangge in different places varies in terms of its steps, movements and styles. No matter mighty or gentle, the styles or movements are all fantastic and entertaining.
秧歌是中国北方最具代表性的民间舞种之一，既有表演性的，也有自娱性的，自娱娱人，深受老百姓的喜爱。各地均出现过一些有代表性的民间秧歌艺人，很多民间艺人对新中国舞蹈事业的建设发挥过重要作用。在农村经济快速发展，文化环境随之发生变化的今天，能够掌握传统秧歌技艺和纯正舞蹈风格的民间艺人已寥若晨星，保护和传承工作亟待进行。
As one of the most representative folk dances in North China, Yangge is either practiced as part of a performance or individually and is highly popular among the people. Representative Yangge artists have been emerging in different places, and many of them have made important contributions to the construction of dance in modern China. Today, as the cultural environment changes with the rapid development of the rural economy, few folk artists exist who can master the traditional techniques and authentic styles of Yangge. Hence conservation and inheritance efforts for Yangge are urgently required.

In terms of form, it is divided into Street Yangge and Court Yangge; as for content, except for “Plain Yangge”, which has no fixed plots, most of Changli District Yangge belongs to “Yangge Chuzi” (Yangge with fixed plots). Roles of Changli District Yangge include “Niu” (girl), “Chou” (Joker), and “Gongzi” (young gentleman), etc., each of which has its unique features. At the beginning, all roles of the Changli District Yangge were played by men. The characters, structure and costumes of Changli District Yangge have been influenced by Mongolian culture. For instance, the “tassel hat” worn by “Chou” was developed from Mongolian costumes. Closely related to local folk songs, dances and mini-plays, Changli District Yangge is vivid in form, rich in content and distinctive in its roles and characters; it can deeply express the personalities and emotions of the characters and exquisitely express the intention of the movements. Famous mini-plays of Changli District Yangge include Catching Butterflies, Sawing the Water Vat, Wang Erxiao Driving the Donkey for Transportation, Silly Zhuzi Meeting his Wife, and Driving the Donkey, etc. The dancing of Changli District Yangge emphasizes the coordination of different parts of the body and flexible movements of the shoulders, hips, knees and wrists for humorous presentation. Different schools like the Zhou School represented by famous folk artist Zhou Guobao, the Zhang School represented by Zhang Qiang and the Lu School represented by Lu Fengchun, etc., are all well-known for their respective charm. After the foundation of the People’s Republic of China, Driving the Donkey, a representative work of Changli District Yangge, participated in the World Youth Festival and won the silver award. In 1996, Changli County was named the “Town of Chinese Folk Arts” by the Ministry of Culture.

海阳大秧歌是山东三大秧歌之一，系民间社火中的舞蹈部分，流行于山东半岛南翼、黄海之滨的海阳市一带。
As one of the three kinds of Yangge of Shandong, Haiyang Dayangge is the dancing portion of the civilian community fire performance. It is popular in the south section of the Shandong Peninsula and the area around Haiyang City on the coast of the Yellow Sea.
海阳大秧歌是一种集歌、舞、戏于一体的民间艺术形式，它遍布海阳的十余处乡镇，并辐射至周边地区。据海阳赵家庄《赵氏谱书》记载：“二世祖（赵）通，世袭（大嵩卫）指挥、镇抚，诰封武略将军。洪熙元年，欣逢五世同堂，上赐'七叶衍祥'金额，悬匾谷旦，诸位指挥偕缙绅光临赐贺。乐舞生闻《韶》，率其创练之秧歌，舞唱于庭，其乐融融。”据此可知，海阳秧歌实创于明代。
Haiyang Dayangge is a folk art integrating singing, dancing and operatic performance. It is popular in over 10 townships of Haiyang as well as the surrounding areas. According to the Pedigree of the Zhao Family in Zhaojiazhuang, Haiyang, The 2nd generation of the ancestor (Zhao) Tong inherited command of Dasongwei and was anointed the title of General Wulue. In the first year of the Hongxi Period, when the five generations are gathered in the family, His Majesty granted the family the Golden Stele of 'Qi Ye Yan Xiang (Seven Branches amplify happiness)', and generals and officials came for celebration. The Yuewusheng danced Yangge in the court, which added to the joyful atmosphere of the celebration. This record confirms Haiyang Yangge’s origins in the Ming Dynasty.
海阳大秧歌表演内容丰富，队伍结构严谨，主要由三部分组成。出行时排在最前列的是执事部分，其次是乐队，随后是舞队。舞队有各类角色几十人，其中包括指挥者--药大夫，集体表演者--花鼓、小、霸王鞭，双人表演者--货郎与翠花、箍漏与王大娘、丑婆与傻小子、老头与老婆、相公与媳妇等，排在最后的是秧歌剧人物或戏曲杂扮者。秧歌队常用阵式有“二龙吐须”、“八卦斗”、“龙摆尾”、“龙盘尾”、“二龙绞柱”、“三鱼争头”、“众星捧月”等。海阳秧歌舞蹈动作的突出特点是跑扭结合，舞者在奔跑中扭动，女性扭腰挽扇、上步抖肩，活泼大方；男性颤步晃头、挥臂换肩，爽朗风趣。
Haiyang Dayangge features rich performance content and a strict procession structure. It mainly consists of three parts: the first part is the Yangge director team, which is followed by the band and the dance team. The dance team consists of dozens of members which take on various roles, including the conductor—the doctor, the collective performers--Huagu, Xiao Man, Master Whip and the Duo dancers-the peddler and Cui Hua, Ge Lou and Aunt Wang, the ugly old lady and the Little Idiot, the old man and his wife, the husband and the wife, etc. The last part consists of characters of the Yangge Opera or other miscellaneous roles.

海阳大秧歌是海阳人民集体智慧和创造精神的体现，在现实中，海阳秧歌鲜明地展现了海阳农村百姓的精神风貌和性格特征，是一方地域文化的重要组成部分，具有审美价值和历史价值，对于丰富群众的文化生活、构建和谐社会起到了重要的促进作用。海阳大秧歌现已被编列为汉民族舞蹈教材之一。1996年，海阳市被文化部命名为“中国民间艺术之乡”。
Haiyang Dayangge embodies the collective wisdom and creativity of the People of Haiyang. It represents the spiritual bearing and characteristics of the people in the countryside of Haiyang and constitutes an important part of the regional culture. Therefore, it has high aesthetic and historical value and functions as a means for enriching the people’s cultural life and building a harmonious society.

The dancers perform movements like twisting, swinging, walking, jumping and turning with the accompaniment of gongs, drums and Sona. The performance features a joyful atmosphere and passionate movements. The Yangge has absorbed artistic elements from different local performing arts like “The Boat”, “Driving the Donkey”, “gaoqiao (stilt)”, and the “Kicking Court”, etc., and forms the mighty Yangge troupes.

秧歌•抚顺地秧歌
Yangge•Fushun District Yangge
申报地区或单位：辽宁省抚顺市
Nominating unit[s]: Fushun City, Liaoning Province
抚顺地秧歌，有时也被称为“鞑子秧歌”，是一种形成年代久远，民族性、民间性及地域特色都极为浓厚的民间舞蹈形式，主要流传在今辽宁省抚顺满族发祥地一带。抚顺地秧歌形成于清初，一直流传至今。它与满族先世的民间舞蹈有着直接的渊源关系。据史书记载，唐代已有名为“踏锤”的舞蹈，明代有被称为“莽式”的歌舞，它们对抚顺地秧歌的形成有一定的影响作用。
Fushun District Yangge, sometimes called “Tartar Yangge”, is a folk dance with a long history, strong national characteristics, and regional character. It is mainly distributed in the area around the cradle of the Manchu in Fushun, Liaoning Province. Fushun District Yangge originated in the beginning of the Qing Dynasty has been passed down until now. It has a direct relationship with the folk dance of the ancestors of the Manchu. According to historical records, there was the dance called “Tachui” in the Tang Dynasty and a dance called “Mangshi” in the Ming Dynasty, both of which had a direct influence on the formation of Fushun District Yangge.
抚顺地秧歌中最具代表性的人物是旗装打扮的“鞑子官”和仅穿皮袄、斜挎串铃及各种生活和狩猎器具的“克里吐”（俗称“外鞑子”）。其表演动作多源自跃马、射箭、战斗之类满族原始状态的生产生活，也有的系模仿鹰、虎、熊等动作，其中多有传统舞蹈的元素。秧歌动作中的蹲、跺、盘、摆、颤等姿态丰富、刚劲豪放，具有鲜明的渔猎生活和八旗战斗生活的特色。其伴奏音乐借用了满族萨满跳神的打击乐形式，有“老三点”、“七棒”、“快鼓点”等演奏方式，与汉族秧歌有较大区别。抚顺地秧歌自清代以来一直在抚顺地区流传，深得群众喜爱。据1986年调查，当时尚有50个秧歌队在活动，然而目前渊源和传承人谱系较为清楚的只有4个秧歌队。
The most representative roles in Fushun District Yangge are the “Dazi Guan” (Tartar Official) wearing the dress of the Manchu and the “Kelitu” (commonly called the “Wai Dazi”, namely the External Tartar) wearing the leather jacket, string of bells as well as various necessities of life and hunting. The movements are mainly sourced from the primitive practices of the Manchu and include horse mounting, shooting arrows and battling, or imitating animals like eagles, tigers and bears. Many of the movements contain other elements of dance. With diversified bold and unconstrained postures like crouching, stamping, crossing legs, waving and shaking, the Yangge has distinct characteristics of hunting, battling and life of the “Eight Banners”. The accompaniment adopts the percussion music of the Manchu Shaman dance, such as “The Old Three Steps”, “Seven Bars” and “Fast Drum Beats”, and is quite different from Yangge of the Han Nationality. Fushun District Yangge has been popular in Fushun since the Qing Dynasty. According to a survey in 1986, 50 Yangge troupes still exist in China; however, only four of them have clear sources and lineage.
抚顺地秧歌在民间流传久远。由于环境变化、老艺人数量减少等原因，经常性的抚顺地秧歌活动已难于开展，表演的走阵、动作也有逐渐被简化的趋势，正濒临消亡，需要大力扶持。
Fushun District Yangge is a longstanding tradition among the people. Due to changes in the environment and the shrinking number of old artists, it has been difficult to carry out regular activities of Fushun District Yangge. Furthermore, its formation changes and movements have been gradually simplified. This dying art requires great efforts and support to ensure its conservation.

There are two main types of Yangge: “gaoqiao yangge (stilt yangge)”, which is performed on stilts, and “Ground Yangge”, performed without stilts. The “Yangge” we know in modern times mainly refers to the “Ground Yangge”. Yangge has a long history. It was recorded as “Cuntianle” in Memories of Wulin by Zhou Mi of the Southern Song Dynasty when introducing folk dance troupes. The relationship between what we call Yangge today and the “Cuntianle” in the Song Dynasty is recorded in Miscellaneous Odes to New Year by Wu Xilin of the Qing Dynasty. Today, Yangge is mainly performed by Yangge troupes, with each troupe consisting of dozens or even over 100 members, in the form of group dances, duo dances or trio dances, etc., and if required by the roles, performers may dance with the accompaniment of wind and percussion instruments like gongs, drums and sona, holding props like handkerchiefs, umbrellas, bars, drums or copper cash whips. Yangge in different places varies in terms of its steps, movements and styles. No matter mighty or gentle, the styles or movements are all fantastic and entertaining.
秧歌是中国北方最具代表性的民间舞种之一，既有表演性的，也有自娱性的，自娱娱人，深受老百姓的喜爱。各地均出现过一些有代表性的民间秧歌艺人，很多民间艺人对新中国舞蹈事业的建设发挥过重要作用。在农村经济快速发展，文化环境随之发生变化的今天，能够掌握传统秧歌技艺和纯正舞蹈风格的民间艺人已寥若晨星，保护和传承工作亟待进行。
As one of the most representative folk dances in North China, Yangge is either practiced as part of a performance or individually and is highly popular among the people. Representative Yangge artists have been emerging in different places, and many of them have made important contributions to the construction of dance in modern China. Today, as the cultural environment changes with the rapid development of the rural economy, few folk artists exist who can master the traditional techniques and authentic styles of Yangge. Hence conservation and inheritance efforts for Yangge are urgently required.

海阳大秧歌是山东三大秧歌之一，系民间社火中的舞蹈部分，流行于山东半岛南翼、黄海之滨的海阳市一带。
As one of the three kinds of Yangge of Shandong, Haiyang Dayangge is the dancing portion of the civilian community fire performance. It is popular in the south section of the Shandong Peninsula and the area around Haiyang City on the coast of the Yellow Sea.
海阳大秧歌是一种集歌、舞、戏于一体的民间艺术形式，它遍布海阳的十余处乡镇，并辐射至周边地区。据海阳赵家庄《赵氏谱书》记载：“二世祖（赵）通，世袭（大嵩卫）指挥、镇抚，诰封武略将军。洪熙元年，欣逢五世同堂，上赐'七叶衍祥'金额，悬匾谷旦，诸位指挥偕缙绅光临赐贺。乐舞生闻《韶》，率其创练之秧歌，舞唱于庭，其乐融融。”据此可知，海阳秧歌实创于明代。
Haiyang Dayangge is a folk art integrating singing, dancing and operatic performance. It is popular in over 10 townships of Haiyang as well as the surrounding areas. According to the Pedigree of the Zhao Family in Zhaojiazhuang, Haiyang, The 2nd generation of the ancestor (Zhao) Tong inherited command of Dasongwei and was anointed the title of General Wulue. In the first year of the Hongxi Period, when the five generations are gathered in the family, His Majesty granted the family the Golden Stele of 'Qi Ye Yan Xiang (Seven Branches amplify happiness)', and generals and officials came for celebration. The Yuewusheng danced Yangge in the court, which added to the joyful atmosphere of the celebration. This record confirms Haiyang Yangge’s origins in the Ming Dynasty.
海阳大秧歌表演内容丰富，队伍结构严谨，主要由三部分组成。出行时排在最前列的是执事部分，其次是乐队，随后是舞队。舞队有各类角色几十人，其中包括指挥者--药大夫，集体表演者--花鼓、小、霸王鞭，双人表演者--货郎与翠花、箍漏与王大娘、丑婆与傻小子、老头与老婆、相公与媳妇等，排在最后的是秧歌剧人物或戏曲杂扮者。秧歌队常用阵式有“二龙吐须”、“八卦斗”、“龙摆尾”、“龙盘尾”、“二龙绞柱”、“三鱼争头”、“众星捧月”等。海阳秧歌舞蹈动作的突出特点是跑扭结合，舞者在奔跑中扭动，女性扭腰挽扇、上步抖肩，活泼大方；男性颤步晃头、挥臂换肩，爽朗风趣。
Haiyang Dayangge features rich performance content and a strict procession structure. It mainly consists of three parts: the first part is the Yangge director team, which is followed by the band and the dance team. The dance team consists of dozens of members which take on various roles, including the conductor—the doctor, the collective performers--Huagu, Xiao Man, Master Whip and the Duo dancers-the peddler and Cui Hua, Ge Lou and Aunt Wang, the ugly old lady and the Little Idiot, the old man and his wife, the husband and the wife, etc. The last part consists of characters of the Yangge Opera or other miscellaneous roles.

海阳大秧歌是海阳人民集体智慧和创造精神的体现，在现实中，海阳秧歌鲜明地展现了海阳农村百姓的精神风貌和性格特征，是一方地域文化的重要组成部分，具有审美价值和历史价值，对于丰富群众的文化生活、构建和谐社会起到了重要的促进作用。海阳大秧歌现已被编列为汉民族舞蹈教材之一。1996年，海阳市被文化部命名为“中国民间艺术之乡”。
Haiyang Dayangge embodies the collective wisdom and creativity of the People of Haiyang. It represents the spiritual bearing and characteristics of the people in the countryside of Haiyang and constitutes an important part of the regional culture. Therefore, it has high aesthetic and historical value and functions as a means for enriching the people’s cultural life and building a harmonious society.

秧歌•抚顺地秧歌
Yangge•Fushun District Yangge
申报地区或单位：辽宁省抚顺市
Nominating unit[s]: Fushun City, Liaoning Province
抚顺地秧歌，有时也被称为“鞑子秧歌”，是一种形成年代久远，民族性、民间性及地域特色都极为浓厚的民间舞蹈形式，主要流传在今辽宁省抚顺满族发祥地一带。抚顺地秧歌形成于清初，一直流传至今。它与满族先世的民间舞蹈有着直接的渊源关系。据史书记载，唐代已有名为“踏锤”的舞蹈，明代有被称为“莽式”的歌舞，它们对抚顺地秧歌的形成有一定的影响作用。
Fushun District Yangge, sometimes called “Tartar Yangge”, is a folk dance with a long history, strong national characteristics, and regional character. It is mainly distributed in the area around the cradle of the Manchu in Fushun, Liaoning Province. Fushun District Yangge originated in the beginning of the Qing Dynasty has been passed down until now. It has a direct relationship with the folk dance of the ancestors of the Manchu. According to historical records, there was the dance called “Tachui” in the Tang Dynasty and a dance called “Mangshi” in the Ming Dynasty, both of which had a direct influence on the formation of Fushun District Yangge.
抚顺地秧歌中最具代表性的人物是旗装打扮的“鞑子官”和仅穿皮袄、斜挎串铃及各种生活和狩猎器具的“克里吐”（俗称“外鞑子”）。其表演动作多源自跃马、射箭、战斗之类满族原始状态的生产生活，也有的系模仿鹰、虎、熊等动作，其中多有传统舞蹈的元素。秧歌动作中的蹲、跺、盘、摆、颤等姿态丰富、刚劲豪放，具有鲜明的渔猎生活和八旗战斗生活的特色。其伴奏音乐借用了满族萨满跳神的打击乐形式，有“老三点”、“七棒”、“快鼓点”等演奏方式，与汉族秧歌有较大区别。抚顺地秧歌自清代以来一直在抚顺地区流传，深得群众喜爱。据1986年调查，当时尚有50个秧歌队在活动，然而目前渊源和传承人谱系较为清楚的只有4个秧歌队。
The most representative roles in Fushun District Yangge are the “Dazi Guan” (Tartar Official) wearing the dress of the Manchu and the “Kelitu” (commonly called the “Wai Dazi”, namely the External Tartar) wearing the leather jacket, string of bells as well as various necessities of life and hunting. The movements are mainly sourced from the primitive practices of the Manchu and include horse mounting, shooting arrows and battling, or imitating animals like eagles, tigers and bears. Many of the movements contain other elements of dance. With diversified bold and unconstrained postures like crouching, stamping, crossing legs, waving and shaking, the Yangge has distinct characteristics of hunting, battling and life of the “Eight Banners”. The accompaniment adopts the percussion music of the Manchu Shaman dance, such as “The Old Three Steps”, “Seven Bars” and “Fast Drum Beats”, and is quite different from Yangge of the Han Nationality. Fushun District Yangge has been popular in Fushun since the Qing Dynasty. According to a survey in 1986, 50 Yangge troupes still exist in China; however, only four of them have clear sources and lineage.
抚顺地秧歌在民间流传久远。由于环境变化、老艺人数量减少等原因，经常性的抚顺地秧歌活动已难于开展，表演的走阵、动作也有逐渐被简化的趋势，正濒临消亡，需要大力扶持。
Fushun District Yangge is a longstanding tradition among the people. Due to changes in the environment and the shrinking number of old artists, it has been difficult to carry out regular activities of Fushun District Yangge. Furthermore, its formation changes and movements have been gradually simplified. This dying art requires great efforts and support to ensure its conservation.
