Classical Chinese dance 'Once Upon a Time in Luoyang' by Tang Shiyi | 舞蹈：唐诗逸《洛阳旧事》| CNODDT 

One last look at the Tang dynasty Swishing skirts, alluring as a curse Broken in a teetering tower, surrounded by imperial armies I command soaring flames to take me away All I ever wished for Gilded love and sorrow Resplendence in one hand and sharp-edged blade in another I harbor hatred but no time to dwell on it, I still love but we can not be together I heard fate is a deadly thing, it pierces many throats (Chinese Opera) Like ants in a gale, fish within a pond Fickle are life and death, deep our sorrowful sighs Life is alike fallen petals crushed in dirt and mud The rains in Chang'an comes with swift thunders That graceful silhouette steps into perilous territory When the flames of elation die down, may ashes of the past blow away in the wind I have no regrets, but fear I am too late to make amends All I ever wished for Have all gone up in smoke They cloud my vision, with nowhere to turn back Close the windows, as I close my eyes to autumn in the outside world I can't care less whichever way I go in the next life So fill my glass again with wine (Chinese opera) Golden-thread dresses, memories of the City in Spring Break apart in ripples Are old memories even worth sitting down to reminisce? Luo'yang is raining now, the clouds are settling People will meet their different fates All this is just a sweet dream coming to an end (Chinese opera) Like ants in a gale, fish within a pond Fickle are life and death, deep our sorrowful sighs Life is alike fallen petals crushed in dirt and mud The rains in Chang'an comes with swift thunders That graceful silhouette steps into perilous territory When the flames of elation die down, may ashes of the past blow away in the wind I have no regrets, but fear I am too late to make amends

This dance is about Princess Anle, who was very well known for her beauty and dramatic life. This song tells the ups and downs of her short life over a 1000 years ago in Tang dynasty. She was the youngest daughter of Emperor Zhongzong and his wife Empress Wei. And she was doted upon heavily by her parents, which contributed to her later drive for power. After gaining power, she became extremely arrogant, corrupt, and extravagant, and ruled China with her mother Empress Wei , the corruption of the two almost pushed the administration of Emperor Zhongzong to the brink of bankruptcy. Eventually, after Emperor Zhongzong died, Empress Wei seized the throne and elevated Anle to the position of crown princess. One month later, a coup led by Anle's cousin Li Longji, the Prince of Linzi, overthrew and killed Empress Wei and Anle. "Anle 安乐", literally means Peace and Happiness, of which her parents hoped for her life to be, yet she was killed at age 25, how ironic it is. After all she was just a spoiled child.

i did classical chinese dance for 7 years before i moved overseas, and it's been so difficult trying to embrace my culture since, especially in the last few years. finding this video and seeing everyone's appreciation is doing more to help me reconnect with my culture and be proud of it than anything else has ever had :') 感动得都要哭了 ♡

Chinese art are very underrated imo, we are a lucky generation who can access other cultures through Internet so easily, imagine a life without seeing these beautiful cultural dances, customs and musics of other nations , we would've miss so much pleasure of life

I just love how the Chinese people preserved their culture and present it for the world to see. This dance and the song is one way to do it.

Very beautiful indeed I on purpose searched for 'Traditional Chinese dance' . I am lucky to have witnessed this

果然還是最喜歡唐風，從妝容到服裝到舞蹈，此舞只應天上有啊！

The open Tang Dynasty gave women a lot of power, so there were princesses who could participate in politics. It's rare to see in Chinese history. Therefore, the princesses of the Tang Dynasty were very different compared with some princesses in the former Danasties. 🔻Princess Pingyang (平阳公主) was the only princess who was buried with military ceremonies in history. She was good at military tactics. 🔻Princess Jinyang (晋阳公主) was the only princess in history who was raised by the emperor himself. 🔻Princess Taiping (太平公主) was an ambitious women who almost became the 2th Wu Zetian in history and had great power. Btw, Wu Zetian, born in the Tang Danasty, is the only female emperor in Chinese history. 🔻Princess Anle (安乐公主) was also an ambitious women who was eventually killed in a coup. This video is based on her stories.

As a dancer myself I truly appreciate how beautifully she performs her technique and makes it look effortless Outstanding Much love

没看过糖糖演绎的安乐公主前， 我一直以为太平公主是第一美女， 谢谢糖糖和佟导的科普才纠正了历史盲点！ 最近中歌一直上映糖糖的作品， 我发现糖糖的舞除了技巧， 最让人惊艳的就是情感的渲染， 那个韵味让人深陷表演不能自拔。希望糖糖能多一些新的作品及舞剧。如果有以前舞剧的官录， 如果不能免费直播，期待可以做成线上会员付费观赏， 不单能宣扬文化， 还能吸引更多海外华裔的舞剧剧迷有机会观赏优质作品， 会是双赢呀😀

Chinese culture is honestly so beautiful

This is beautiful! Love the opera singing voice too. So heavenly- even if I can't understand the words! 🖤

いろんな国のダンス（舞）を見るのが好きなのですが、今のところ女性ではこの人のダンスが一番好きです。 服を舞わせることが出来る事、強さと柔らかさの共存、セリフが無くとも伝わる感情や物語、とても高いレベルで 技術を超えた域に入りかけているように見えます。彼女と古典舞踊は表と裏なのかもしれませんね。

This is one of the most beautiful thing I've ever seen in my life. I accidentally click this video and god, I'm in tears now

这歌+舞美呆了，是唐诗逸所有舞蹈里我最喜欢的

i remembered in our Chinese new year event in our school in Philippines, 2 students sang this and i could confirm, one of the best experiences i will never forget in my life.

四言詩《唐詩逸》牛騎馬 千嬌百媚，攝人心扉。 舞出雲彩，柔情似水。

中间戏腔那几段走步绝了，像是走在云端，实际是走进我的心间，触动心弦。。又想起10年前上大学那会看舞林争霸时迷上的唐诗逸，那是多么迷恋这么优秀的同龄人啊。。。男的舞者我非常欣赏的有张傲月刘福阳。转眼这么多年过去没关注。。。。又梅开二度被她感动。。。真的在我心里是可远观不可亵玩的神女。这段舞刷了一遍又一遍，能欣赏唐诗逸的舞姿。。。我三生有幸

this is such a wonderful dance..the dancer looks stunning and it was done well i enjoy these things because the dancers always look so graceful and light and the music is delightful

完美詮釋演繹安樂公主，中國古典之舞令人驚豔讚嘆！ 🌼🌼🌼

Clicked on this due to curiosity and I can't help but be awestruck at such great performance. The performer's graceful and fluid movement is aesthetically pleasing to the eye. Kudos to the performer and the team behind this great performance❤️.

I'm from Bangladesh 🇧🇩 but I fell in love with Chinese tradition. Such a wonderful performance. And I love the dress. 💚💚

I am from india but i really love traditional chinese dances, i first experienced it genshin impact during yun jins opera and i got curious after that, i really love how the movements feel like swift as water, and the dresses make it even better

My favorite dancer is Tang Shiyi. She is exceptional in her movement grace and looks exactly how I imagined a real Goddess in Heaven moves

看着舞，听着歌，梦回大唐，泪目了。绝色佳人，绝美唐舞，无与伦比的演出

my favorite classical Chinese dance. I could watch it for hours. It's just so beautiful, so captivating.

The best Chinese art dance I ever watched. Amazing performance.looking forward to such wonderful dance in my next china visit.

What in the Chinese heaven did i watch??😭🤌 that was a next level beautiful and brilliant❤

Hun danser som en sommerfugl, Dette er dans fra en gammel kultur.... Tenk på den Norske trampende folkedansen med varme ullklær som svinger seg på tregulvet. DETTE er vakkert og følsomt. Kjekt at vi er forskjellige, spennende å se andre kulturer og menneskelige utrykk 😍😮

非常美麗，這個舞蹈可以平靜你的神經，你可以一直盯著看，我已經看了1000遍了，太棒了，太棒了

This video will pop up to everyone who addicted to YunJin's opera performance 😄

詩意般活仙女 出神入化之舞 中國僅存 唐詩逸 天啊～感動極度之美😇

Очень красиво танцует, с душой. Атмосфера и декорации тоже.

一舞诉尽安乐公主的一生

The dancer is so amazing.. I am not a chinese and don't known much about chinese classical dance but I found her mesmerising❤❤❤

美麗動人的背後多少辛苦的養成，佩服糖糖！

i love the lines of chinese classical dance, it's like watching many different pieces of ancient art blending together one after the other.

Actually if you don't know this song guys this dates back in the tang dynasty Era, and the name of the character you see in the video is princess anle

我喜欢这首歌，这首歌太美了，舞蹈也太美了

What a magnificent performance! I love how she was able to tell a story and convey emotions with her dance without having to say a single word.

I love chinese culture their architecture actually everything . I would love to visit China ❤❤❤❤❤

この伝統的な歌も、繊細で躍動感あふれる舞踊は、永遠に残されて欲しい。

Прям загляденье и так утонченно))☺️🤗✨🌼

I absolutely adore the use of Classical Beijing operatic singing style!

Ok that transition at 1:17 was REALLY unexpected but cool

மேகங்கள் ஒன்று திரண்டு நாணல் போல் வளைந்து நெளிந்த நடனம் ஆடியது அழகுக்கு அழகு இசை கோர்ப்பு இனியது..வாழ்த்துக்கள்

唐朝最著名的几个公主，高阳、太平、安乐，结局都很惨。

I'm Moroccan and I'm in love with this ❤

古典舞真棒完美呈現

She’s heavenly beautiful. The dances the clothes the song ✨❤

I love how this video captures and conveys emotion. Tang conveys emotion and sorrow through her facial expressions. And I love how the fabric/clothes are used to swish around. And the scenes of snow are beautiful. As well as the incredible song and how high pitched the voice can get. I really think this captures the Princess' life and how much sorrow she felt when her dreams were not fulfilled and she was left isolated. I think everything about this is perfect.

I was getting sad withC-drama chinese dance and had to look for professional ancient chinese dance. This is good.

Like a perfect painting coming to life. Flawless

I haven't seen such sensional dance in my ehile life....❤❤❤❤❤❤ it is my wish to learn to dance Chinese traditional dance.

這套衣服真好看 好美❤

Sooooo beautiful!！This beauty is beyond what words can describe😮❤

如此精彩的表演，我一边欣赏一边感动❤

居然看的眼眶湿润，被感染到了。谢谢糖糖！

I can watch this all day. ♥️♥️♥️♥️.love this dance & music.

I love her outfit and the dance moves are so smoothe just wow

The voice of this woman is amazing, help

I’m captured by this beautiful performance and music 🎶 with elements of Classical Chinese opera ❤😮

Wow, I've never seen anything quite like this - I can't understand the lyrics, but the dancer told the story so beautifully I understood anyway!

A beautiful, graceful dancer and a beautiful dance! Those were 4 minutes of pure bliss and heaven!

Brilliant performance.. I feel like we're only been scratching the surface of Chinese culture all this while. More of this please!

Nice performance, nice melody, happy to listening, pretty, and talented.Thank you sharing to us.👍👍👍🤗🤗🤗💖💖💖🌹🌹🌹

She really dances beautifully with her own emotions!

唐詩逸跳的古典舞蹈，宇宙第一! 真的很美，感覺好像在夢裡一般...。唐詩逸加油! 王心凌的善良、甜美與唐詩逸舞蹈的美，真希望有機會 她們能合作，天神也會下來地球看她們的表演.............

If I were to choose an ancient Chinese dynasty to live in, it definitely would be the early to mid Tang.

This video popped up suddenly as recommendation from RU-vid....or maybe Heaven? ;-) this artistic performance must have been produced in the Heavenly Realm no doubt :-), it is so mesmerizing, besides forgetting to breathe for the next 4 minutes I felt like being transported to a different world long ago, wow what an amazing experience! 👏🙏❤️ thank you! 💞

Loved dance, story, dress, decoration and song. Cant stop rewatching it again and again ❤

i've watched this so many times and i'm still amazed each time

Wonderful to see these beautiful elegant traditional Chinese dances being performed.

The dance was amazing, but the dress floweed perfectly- someone really put a lot of effort in, & it's lovely.

How beautiful! How her dance speaks to my heart ❤️🙏☺️

This made me emotional

Absolutely stunning! I'm totally in love with classical Chinese dances!

場景好美，中間變聲令人起雞皮疙瘩

Such an amazing performance, I was so emotional while enjoying this ❤

This is breathtaking it leaves me with so many emotions

Beautiful people and beautiful music what more could you want this brings tears to my eyes 😭

This wonderfulness is immeasurable and unfathermable and off the charts

That was magnificent. The falsetto voice in the music, and the traditional instrument is unbelievable, conjuring up a story of which I knew the actual words.

Sempre volto a esse vídeo quando me sinto inconsolável. E sempre me acabo em lágrimas.

The dance is beautiful, the production and photography are just spectacular

Chinese culture survived a whole ass world war with invaders from multiple countries occupying their lands lasting for decades. That alone shows enough about the strength of it.

虽然是第一次听，但是感觉被这些歌迷住了，边学边听很舒服很舒服😊。 榜单里的歌曲都很好听，喜欢听华语音乐却听不到这些歌曲的人会后悔的。

I love the song and definitely love the classical Chinese dance. Simply beautiful.

Very very romantic, beautiful and tender!!! I was impressed so much!!! 👏👏 👏 Bravo 👏 Bravo 👏👏👏

beautiful song and a beautiful dance performance

I love tang dynasty moments. 💚👍

Such a beautiful performance!💜💜✨💜💜👍

Oh wow...that was stunning! What a beautiful form of dance; I would love to study this. She is really amazing and so 'descriptive' of the story. Wow. And the music was remarkable, as were the sets, lighting, and costumes. What a delightful performance! Thank you SO much for posting!

看一曲舞蹈竟然看流泪了，唐诗逸太厉害了❤

真好看！!

Desde que eu era pequena sempre apreciei a cultura oriental, a dança,a música ,os instrumentos e toda a cultura me faz ,me apaixonar mais e mais!❤❤❤❤

6分钟前 Can u imagine it's just an advertisement of a network game? And for Tang Shiyi, who is the principal dancer of China National Opera & Dance Drama Threatre，the skills played in this video clip are just the tip of her iceberg. It's sooooo easy for her😂😂😂 Great dancer!

Absolutely mesmerizing!! This is fantastic and spectacular!

just glories ! what a creativity !!!
