Ling Er Diao

Shandong
🎧  Listen to Introduction

Abbreviated as Lingdiao, also known as Goulingdiao and Linglingdiao, it evolved from parasitic grass and is a kind of folk song popular in central and southern Shandong. It was first seen in "Bai Xue Yi Yin" compiled by Hua Guangsheng of Licheng during the Daoguang period of the Qing Dynasty, with a total of 24 songs. The lyrics are mostly long and short sentences, with different lengths, and it seems that there is no single fixed tune. However, in 1956, more than 40 paragraphs of Lingdiao lyrics were copied from the blind artist Sheng Si in Jining, and in 1985, "White Ape Stealing Peach" was copied from the blind artist Yang Jinkui in Jining. The musical structure is mainly seven-sentence tunes. The beginning is "Mao", and "Cha" is added after each sentence. Some "Cha" is followed by tunes such as Jian Dihua, Yin Niusi, Die Duanqiao, Huguangdiao, and Bianguandiao; the lyrics are also relatively regular. Except for the first sentences of Mao, Cha, and Xu, which are four and four (eight characters), the rest are mostly seven-character sentences. The accompanying instruments of Ling'erdiao include pipa, sanxian, yangqin, etc., but most of them are sung by themselves playing pipa. There are love songs such as "Dream of Love", as well as singing segments such as "White Ape Steals Peaches" and "Qin Qiong Flees", and a long book "Lingguan Temple".
