Chinese Opera
Traditional arts? I wonder if they are tlaking about the Chinese opera that's being talked about at the capital. It's supposedly based on the dances and songs of this area. But ever since it has become popular they call it Chinese opera. Ask someone with a good head. Why? Cause they say it started in the Iperial Court.

Art with a long history
If you seek out the origins of this new art that is so popular at the capital, you will eventually come to Bugaku. Bugaku are court songs and music,and have existed since the time of the Three Kingdoms. It's pupularity is tied to the rise and fall of the country. It comes in contract with. It's current form first appeared around the Song period.

Theatre of the Song Period
Crafts among the common folk gained popularity during the Song period, so entertainment gained popularity as a way of relaxing. Towns begain to have small theatres, and Bugaku began to spread throughout the common folk. This form of theatre spread to many lands absorbing local influences and evolving even after the end of the Song period.

A Dancer's Passion
That reminds me. A dancer from town here was summoned to the capital. Before she left she said this. 'Our theatre has been reborn as this new Chinese Opera, but it will continue to be refined as it comes in contract with other cultures.'

Things to Protect, Things that Change
Art flows between things you want to keep and things that change. Just like History. That's why we remember old things and need to value them. The dancer agreed with me and donated her costume to the town. She hopes it will encourage those studying the arts.

To Future Growth
If you don't mind, will you accept one of those costumes? Your report will someday influence many cultures. And I hope it will return to us here in this new art form. The costumes are being stored near the Item Shop. The storage box is locked, so be careful.

The New Art form, Chinese Opera
This new art form was born near Hangzhou, but has managed to spread and thrive at the capital. It has a long history, and has evolved numerous times along the way.
A costume used in this new art form is stored near the Item Shop at Hangzhou. I shall include that in my report.
