It is understood that in order to enrich and enliven the cultural life of the masses during the Spring Festival and show the artistic style and spiritual outlook of the masses, Lidian Town, Jingning County, held the second "Wande Cup" folk culture and art festival with the theme of "Guchengji Guangyechuan" during the Spring Festival. Agenda performers from Xiji County, Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region, were invited to participate in the performance and strengthen folk culture exchanges. Folk arts such as agendas, lion dances, dry boat rowing, paper horses, shadow puppets, and paper-cutting have added a lot of fun to the cultural life of the local people in the festival.
At the event site, the parade scene was shocking and lively. The performance program has distinct characteristics, rich content, and close to the people, attracting many people to stop and watch, and everyone has become a circle around them, allowing the performers to perform in it. In particular, the easy-to-understand agenda shouts Spring Folk Customs, which is a symbol of blessings and wealth to the villagers.
"Feather fan gold and silver, red cloth belt tied around the waist, walk through the Tang, Song, Yuan, and Ming Dynasties, summoning the spring wind to repay the blessing." Speaker Hu Duxing shouted this thousand-year-old spring poem, which won bursts of applause and applause from the crowd at the scene. "For decades, I like to talk about the agenda and I'm willing to participate in the show." Hu Duxing said that every time he hears the applause of the audience, he feels very happy, and hopes that through his performance, more people will have an understanding of the folk culture of the agenda. In order to pass on this traditional folk program, he is also cultivating interested young people and passing on the "baton" of folk culture. According to reports, the youngest agenda officer in the agenda performance is about 12 years old, and in the ears of adults, and after many exercises of his own, he looks like an agenda officer.
Catchy agendas, wonderful lion dances, paper horses swinging left and right... It not only allows the masses to experience the charm of folk art, enriches the spiritual and cultural life of the masses, but also helps to promote the protection and inheritance of excellent traditional culture such as local "intangible cultural heritage".
