Abstract

On Leizhou Peninsula in western Guangdong, Guniang Song is a kind of folk art which uses local dialect to rap and perform. In 2006, among the first batch of provincial intangible cultural heritage announced by Guangdong Provincial People’s Government, it was successfully selected. According to the existing research, the introduction of it by scholars mostly started from the aspects of performance forms and folk characteristics, while ignoring the research on the aesthetic character of it. Based on this situation, the purpose of this study is to explore the aesthetic character of the it in western Guangdong, in order to provide some theoretical reference and creative inspiration for the scientific protection and inheritance of the Guniang Song.
