Answer:Chinese opera is mainly composed of three different artistic forms: folk song and dance, rap, and comedy. It originated from primitive song and dance and is a comprehensive stage art style with a long history. Through the Han, Tang, Song, and Jin dynasties, a relatively complete form of traditional Chinese opera art was formed. It is a synthesis of literature, music, dance, art, martial arts, acrobatics, and performing arts, with over 360 types. Its characteristic is to aggregate numerous art forms together in a single standard, reflecting their respective personalities in their common properties. [1] Chinese opera, along with Greek tragedies and comedies, and Indian Sanskrit opera, are known as the three ancient theatrical cultures in the world. After long-term development and evolution, it has gradually formed the Hundred Flowers Garden of Chinese Opera with the core of the five major types of opera, namely "Beijing Opera, Yue Opera, Huangmei Opera, Pingju, and Yu Opera".
