Features: Cheng Pai singing style is a distinctive vocal art among the various Peking Opera schools, with its unique characteristics. It has been widely favored by opera enthusiasts. Over the decades, Cheng Pai art has accumulated a rich repertoire, and in recent years, new Cheng Pai plays and singing styles have continuously appeared on stage, playing a significant role in inheriting and developing the art. The accompaniment art of Cheng Pai singing style is also different from other Dan role schools. It has distinct features in aspects such as the patterns of interludes, the force of bowing, the contrast between loud and soft, and the use of left-hand techniques. In recent years, books on Peking Opera singing scores have become quite common, but accompaniment scores that combine classic Cheng Pai plays and newly created ones have not yet been seen. The publication of this book will fill this gap, and it is expected to be well-received by opera enthusiasts, especially those who are passionate about Cheng Pai.
