Changgu is known as a pearl in the Korean dance world and has always been cherished by the Korean people. Hasegawa has a history of thousands of years, and has been famous at home and abroad for its elegant and elegant dance.
The performance of the long drum is mainly soft movements such as carrying hands, stretching shoulders and walking in sparrows. The form of performance is to carry a long drum on the shoulder, hold a drum whip in the right hand, and beat the drum while jumping. Body, drum and spirit are integrated and highly coordinated. There are many forms of dance, such as solo, duet and group dance. After the founding of New China, the long drum was carefully adapted by Korean dancers, which enhanced the new flavor of the times and national characteristics and made this art form more and more perfect.
Korean drums are two-sided drums with different pitches at both ends. The female drum is elegant, while the male drum is lively and chic.
The Long Drum Dance originated from individual performances in country music and dance, and was mainly sung by men at first. Later, the impromptu duet performance on the stage had a certain influence on the development of Changgu, which made it have various forms such as Men's and Women's Changgu and Double Changgu.
There are two ways to beat modern long sticks: one is to beat female dancers with a drum whip (a slender bamboo whip about a foot long) and a drumstick (a mallet with a round end and a length of about a foot); One is to use only drums and whips instead of drumsticks. At the beginning, the former only used the drum whip to jump with the slow whip beat, and the drum was inserted on the long drum. When the dance reached its climax, the drumsticks were pulled out and performed. The latter holds a drum whip ichalky in spring.
