Dance the Money Stick, as we have been doing in recent years

2024-02-19

"Playing dragon lanterns in January, tying kites in February, hanging graves during the Qingming Festival in March, planting rice seedlings in the fields in April, dragon boats descending the river in May, and fans in June..." The money stick dance team, singing and dancing, meandering forward, painted the festive Daning Ancient City in Wuxi County, Chongqing with a joyful and spring like atmosphere. Qian Bang Dance is a widely circulated folk dance in China, with names such as "Qian Bang Dance", "Lianxiang", "Lianxiao", and "Lianxiao" in different regions. There are slight differences in the performances of the money stick dance under different names, and the explanations about their origins are also not entirely the same. The money stick dance, which is now popular in the Daba Mountains in Xuanhan, Sichuan, and Chengkou, Wuxi and other places in Chongqing, is a common childhood memory for many people, and it is also a "skilled dance" that can be heard. The performer holds a three foot long bamboo stick with copper coins, and beats the body evenly and rhythmically at both ends, with a clear and pleasant rhythm. Viewers can listen and speak up while watching, or join at any time. "The money stick dance has no limit on the number of performers, ranging from a few people to tens or hundreds of people. The larger the scale, the more imposing the atmosphere, which is also the reason why it is particularly popular," said Huang Chengjun, the director of the Wuxi County Museum. (Lai Xin She)
