Abstract

The spirit and techniques of Chinese classical dance stem from traditional Chinese opera. Chinese classical dance is an integral part of the Chinese nation’s traditional culture for its unique charm, and classic “Shenyun”, which means the lingering charm of dancers’ posture, as the essence of Chinese classical dance, has influenced the world dance at certain degree. Traditional Chinese opera culture that also derived from traditional Chinese aesthetic consciousness, possesses numerous features in common with Chinese classic “Shenyun”. This article centers on the common rhythmical point between traditional opera and classical dance, for more scholars to understand the pith of Chinese classic culture. This article tries to look into the common part between traditional opera and classical dance, and to find out the consistency of rhythms and rules of the both, adopting methods of analysis and research.
