Bamboo clapper song is a folk art with local characteristics that the people of Jiaoling County have inherited, developed and innovated in their production, life and political struggle. During the festive years of Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty, the "Five-sentence board" folk art began to become popular. The "Five-sentence board" consists of five sentences as a paragraph, and each sentence is basically composed of seven words. The first, second, third and fourth sentences each have a rhyme, and the recitation conforms to the level and oblique tones, which is beautiful. Rhetoric often uses metaphors, puns, drinking, association and other techniques, and the language is rich. The singer holds four bamboo boards as props and beats out the rhythm as accompaniment to enhance the artistic effect and appeal. Based on the characteristics of singing art, the five-sentence board was also called "bamboo clapper song" in the modern Republic of China. Before liberation, it was more common for folk artists to hold bamboo clappers, walk through the streets and villages, sing miscellaneous songs or long pieces, and make a living by begging for art, so it is also called an educational song. The performance of bamboo clapper song is simple and easy to understand, the singing is fixed and simple, the range of sound is wide, the language is humorous, the image is vivid, and it is either sad or happy, or spoken or sung, flexible and diverse. There are miscellaneous and long songs. Miscellaneous songs are mainly short and concise songs for daily life. The popular long songs include "The Peacock Flies Southeast", "Liang Sizhen and Zhao Yulin", "Meng Jiangnu Looking for Her Husband", and "Gao Wenju". The performance forms of bamboo clapper songs are diverse. The singers can sing alone, in duets, or in duets between men and women. During the performance, the female artist plays the bamboo clappers and sings the lead, while the male artist plays the huxuan (huqin) and plays the supporting role. After liberation, the government attached great importance to the development and innovation of bamboo clapper songs, trained and cultivated folk artists, and encouraged them to serve socialist construction. At present, bamboo clapper songs are radiating great artistic charm and making great contributions to building a harmonious society and enriching people's amateur literary and artistic life.
