What does pear garden mean?

Liyuan was originally a place name of Chang 'an, the capital of the Tang Dynasty. Because Li Longji, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, taught artists here, it was later associated with China traditional drama and became synonymous with art organizations and artists. The origin of "Liyuan" was recorded in the Records of the Temple in Wuxian County written by Jinshi and Jiaqing in the ninth year of Qing Dynasty (1804). "... I visited the capital and met the god of Laolang Temple. According to legend, during the reign of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, the son of Geng Feng Gong Gong was a famous scholar Yashan (Yi Yi Dance) and was given the surname Li to support his children in the palace. It's called Pear Garden because it's all over the world because it loves pears. The ancestors of future generations. ..... "Modern Li Youbai wrote" Examination of the Pear Garden ",which verified the origin of the pear garden. In Tang Zhongzong (705-7 10), the pear garden is only a fruit and wood garden that coexists with jujube garden, mulberry garden, Taoyuan and cherry orchard in the imperial forbidden garden. Guo Mu Garden has a farewell hall, a wine pavilion and a stadium, which is a place for emperors, their relatives and nobles to enjoy themselves. Later, under the vigorous advocacy of Li Longji, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, the nature of the pear garden changed. There is a simple orchard planted with fruit trees. In the Tang Dynasty, it gradually became a pear garden where "children of the pear garden" practiced singing, dancing and opera, and became the first comprehensive "art college" integrating music, dance and opera in the history of China. Li Longji himself served as Cui Gong (or Ya Gong) of Liyuan, equivalent to the present principal (or dean). Under Cui Gong, there are two teams: Editing and General Le Ying (also known as Kui Ling). Li Longji wrote for Liyuan, and often instructed the Hanlin bachelor or famous literati to write programs at that time. For example, the poets He, Li Bai and Li Bai all wrote plays for Liyuan. Li Longji, Lei Haiqing, Gong Sundaniang and so on. They all held the post of Le Yingjiang. They are not only talented and famous artists, but also tireless instructors. In the poem "Watching Gong Sundaniang's Disciples Dance Sword", the poet Du Fu lamented Gong Sundaniang's bold dance, "like a sunset, an angel before the wings of a flying dragon; She began to vent her anger like a thunderbolt, just like the river and the sea. " In the preface of this poem, it is said that there is a calligrapher named Zhang Xu. Since watching Gong Sundaniang's sword dance, his cursive script has made great progress. Li Longji, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, relied on these excellent creators and directors to create a large number of performing artists. During the Xuanzong period of Tang Dynasty (7 12-756), the feudal economic and cultural development of the so-called "Kaiyuan Shi Sheng" reached an unprecedented height. It has not only produced a number of famous writers and poets at home and abroad, but also made outstanding achievements in the fields of dance and music. Liyuan, which occupies an important position in the history of China opera, was born in the fertile soil of the Tang Dynasty.

Children in Liyuan are divided into sitting department, standing department, small department, male department and female department. Generally speaking, the sitting part is an excellent actor, and the musicians sit in the hall to play. The number of dancers is about 3 to 12, and the dance is elegant, accompanied by fine music of silk and bamboo. Rib is an ordinary actor, and musicians stand under the hall to perform.

Where is the pear garden? Because of the long time, I can't find the exact address now Some people think that Liyuan is located in the Lingxiu Gorge of Lishan Mountain in Lintong County, east of Xi. Some people think that there are 100 pear trees in Chunlin Village near the address of Yiyuan Garden built by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty in the Qujiangchi area in the southeast corner of Xi City. Some people think that the pear garden is in the northeast of An, near the east side of Daming Palace in Tang Dynasty, Wumen Village in Sanhuali. Some people think that in or near the forbidden park, today (north of Xi' an and south of Weihe River); Others say that weiyang district and Dabaiyang Village are five miles north of Xi 'an today, but no matter where the Liyuan is, it is indeed a place to train and train artists. Jiao Fang is an organization similar to a pear garden, which mainly rehearses songs and dances and plays. Tang Gaozu Li Yuanshi set up a teaching studio in the restricted area. Due to the economic prosperity of the Tang Dynasty and the love of music and dance in the Tang Dynasty, tens of thousands of musicians have been nurtured, and now the scale is quite large. In the second year of Kaiyuan (7 14), Xuanzong divided the musicians who originally belonged to Taichang Temple and set up a "left and right teaching workshop" to teach pop music. The responsibilities of the left and right teaching workshops are different. Generally speaking, there are many dancers on the right and many singers on the left.
