The application of music technology to the creation and choreography of Yanzhou intangible cultural heritage flower stick dance
Music and rhythm are the souls of dance, and the moral and connotation of dance need to be expressed and output from the background of music. Through various unpredictable forms of music, the creation and editing of dance have also been broken and innovative. With the development of MIDI technology in music, the innovation of music forms also promotes the transformation and innovation of dance. Therefore, the combination of MIDI technology and dance creation is the inevitable result of artistic development.
With the rapid development of modern music technology in dance creation and choreography, the ever-changing music technology has subtly affected the structure and arrangement of dance creation and choreography. The intangible cultural heritage dance flower stick dance in Yanzhou District, Jining, Shandong has gone through years of historical inheritance. Today, the music of Huacun Dance has evolved from the old form of singing along the street, singing and dancing with fixed repertoire, into a new style of music combined with various MIDI music techniques such as selected orchestration, combined melody, and sound field control. The choreography of stick dance brings innovation and innovation. Our original traditional flower stick dance was not combined with modern music technology, so the original flower stick dance was based on the inheritance of old folk artists and folk self-entertainment. The music style is outdated, and there is no innovation, but now it is combined with modern music. The development of technology and the personalization of music creation under MIDI production has brought substantial changes to the creation of personalized dance of Huacun Dance. The creation of Huacun Dance has made breakthroughs and innovations, adding to our intangible cultural heritage dance. A new model of color.
Modern flower stick dance uses suona, erhu, clapper, bamboo flute, drums, and other national instruments in the music orchestration, which combines the flower stick tune of hawking and the original beggar, and various sound effects are incorporated into the flower stick tune. The effect of MIDI making synthesizers vividly shows the rich flavor of southwestern Shandong and the folk customs of northern Shandong.
Dance choreographers need creative inspiration in the creative process. Music production allows choreographers to have imaginative space for their choreography ideas and dance structure and can request music production's specific process and details according to their aesthetic ideas. In Yanzhou Intangible Cultural Heritage Dance, Yin Yong, the choreographer, and director of the Yanzhou District Cultural Center, Jining City, Shandong Province, has unique insights into the history and inheritance of Yanzhou Intangible Cultural Heritage Dance. I interviewed the choreographer of Yanzhou Intangible Cultural Heritage Dance. He believes that intangible cultural heritage dance choreography should combine the connotation and intention of intangible cultural heritage. In the production of music, the beginning of the Yanzhou flower stick tune deeply let us understand that in ancient times, the people of Yanzhou were plagued by disasters, and the victims were begging along the street. Historically, the call of begging and begging gradually changed as "singing the door," and singing the door is the Huacun tune of modern Yanzhou Huacun Dance. The actual sound effects collected through electronic sound effects recording and live collection, mixed with a part of the melody accompaniment of folk music such as suona, erhu, directly reflect the authenticity of history and have a strong sense of the scene achieving the musical effect expected by the director. It can be seen that in the organic integration of music production and dance, the Yanzhou Intangible Cultural Heritage Flower Stick Dance has demonstrated the tension and momentum of the dance and is inspiring.  MIDI production combines human voice effects and music orchestration and uses synthesis technology to produce the Yanzhou Huacun tune with the characteristics of the Yanzhou region. It is used for the beginning of the dance. The Yanzhou Huacun tune makes the beginning of the Huacun dance very distinctive. Ethnic style. After the magnificent flower stick tune is over, the lyrical and delicate suona music chants. Under the background of the main tune of suona, the melody delay, crescendo, and fading of music production are used to change the rhythm of sound effects. The next Han girls swayed the flower sticks to appear on the stage. The dance choreographer got new inspiration through the rhythm change after music technology production. After the intense flower stick tune instantly weakened into a lyrical female flower stick dance section. It is evident here. It is a manifestation of music production to choreography and scene choreography.
In addition to changes in rhythm and speed, MIDI music production can also appropriately adjust the intensity of the music, which is also a new inspiration for the choreography of the flower stick dance. A sonorous piece of music is synthesized through MIDI sound effects and integrated into drum beats, vibrato, and other sound effects. Music orchestration such as clapper and suona erhu was added, and the choreography of Hua Gun Dance was also processed with the intensity and melody of the music. For example, in the first stage of the dance climax, the intensity of the music was gradually strengthened, and the dance movements also consisted of a single hand. Beating the flower stick is strengthened to the collision with the body. The flower stick hits the shoulders, waist, kicks, elbows, kicks, and feet interlaced with each other. The intensity of the music is consistent with the external courage and courage of the actors hitting the flower sticks. The fusion of frustrating and powerful movements shows that the ancient Chinese people have perseverance that is not afraid of suffering and fearlessness.
When the dance enters the climax part, the choreographer uses music production techniques, music melody sound effects, and other music production techniques to push the dance to its climax. Based on the original flower stick dance, techniques such as jumping, turning, turning, and spinning is incorporated to make the dance. The style is diversified, and this innovation is also a prominent feature of modern Huacun Dance. Through the dynamic and powerful rhythmic music characteristics, the performers can easily show their superb skills. The choreographer, director, and creative conception combine the dance with technology and art. Straightforward emotions can be expressed. The editing and production techniques of music have played a finishing touch to the dance skills such as "cross jump," "rotator," and "tiger flapping," changing the audience's visual image of the inherent Huacang dance. There are also innovations in dance-style routines.
At the end of the dance, the actors and actresses gathered in the middle of the stage after a series of technical movements. The movement texture slowly slowed down to a slow rhythm when the two people hit the flower sticks. The lyrical suona melody matched, and there was a clear space. The field effect makes the dance pave the way before the end, and the editing of music embodies a critical role here. The repeated melody repetition in MIDI production gave new creative inspiration to the structure and action language of the dance. The action vocabulary of repeated waist beating, foot beating, and men and women repeatedly beating the flower cudgel is the choreographer's use of music: the repetitive musical melody, rhythm, and musical mood created during the production. At the end of the dance, after the dance of the two men and women playing the flower sticks, the music sound effects incorporate the sound of singing and laughing electronic sound effects, which adds to the performance of the dance form even more. Passionate and cheerful, a dancing mood that sends a good harvest and sings a good life.

The practicality of music technology for dance creation
As a comprehensive dance art, music occupies a significant position. Only with complete matching music can an excellent dance work. Before music technology, most dance choreography was based on original songs or various music. The combination of elements is a patchwork pattern to create dances, and the development of music technology has broken the pattern of only dance music sources. At the same time, the sound effects, editing, and sound field techniques in MIDI production technology are more and more accepted and applied by dance choreographers. Dance choreographers can use music technology, and original dance music can be processed with different effects through music technology such as tone color, volume, sound effects, dynamics, panning, and effects. This is an excellent boon for modern dance music creators to achieve the final result of one's choreography and thinking structure. Music technology dramatically reduces the cost of dance creation and arrangement and does not require labor and resources, such as the flower stick dance. When choreographing, the Chinese choreographer pursues the musical effect melody of the ensemble of folk music instruments. Before the birth of music technology, we need to mobilize all folk music players, erhu, suona, gongs and drums, guzheng, pipa, etc., to perform and record together. When entering the recording studio, the synthesis of music is recorded in a single, but now the synthesis of music technology does not need to mobilize significant band performances and single recording in the recording studio; only the computer keyboard can complete the synthesis and storage of the sound of each track in the sequencer.
There are many special effects in dance creation. It is very troublesome to record with natural sound. However, after music MIDI is produced, all the sound and timbre effects in nature can be produced through MIDI music technology. Many dance choreographers have also produced the imitation of electronic sound effects. Adopted, the Huacun dance has the sound effect of the Huacun strike, which is also produced through music. At present, many large-scale dance dramas and dance poems in China have also been tried, from the selection of orchestration, the arrangement of melody, and the setting of sound field effects. And so on, it can demonstrate the efficient application of music technology in choreography.
