General Introduction
The Song of Everlasting Sorrow is renowned outdoor spectacle, famous with Chinese visitors and Foreign visitor. Hosted outside of Xi'an at the Huaqing Hotsprings, close to the Terracotta Army Mausoleum. Huaqing Hot Springs used to be the place where Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty and Yang Yuhuan, his favorite concubine, bathed. The setting is the scene for the moving but sorrowful love story between the two, written into a long narrative poem called The Song of Everlasting Sorrow by Bai Juyi (772-846), a famous realist poet of the Tang Dynasty. Now the poem has been adapted to a large-scale historical drama presented in the evening at the Huaqing Hot Springs.
Set at Lishan Mountain, the drama is presented on the Nine-Dragon Lake surrounded by pavilions, corridors, palaces and willows. Sound, lighting techniques and the deftly designed stage achieve the right blend of history and realism, nature and culture to deliver a magnificent and genuine feel with both a fabricated and outdoor setting intertwined.
Background of The Song of Everlasting Sorrow
The Song of Everlasting Sorrow, an epic poem by Bai Juyi on the romance between Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty (AD 618-907) and his concubine Yang Yuhuan, is performed as a dance drama at night from April to October. As hundreds of dancers gather around a pool, numerous lights twinkle in the mountain, making the show a spectacle. It has been viewed by more than 3.1 million people in the past eight years since it started, according to its producer, Zhang Xiaoke. Other than rich cultural elements, "advanced technology in lighting and 3-D imagery and real historical stories" are needed to make such a large-scale project successful, he says.
