Subject: Traditions</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial;">Folks,<br>
<br>
Here’s just an explanatory note about the tradition Hanne calls <i>Bänkelsang</i>
and I know as <i>Moritat</i> or <i>Moritatensingen</i>. In English I would
describe these as “street ballads, usually performed with accompanying picture
sheets.” It is also called “cantastoria,” an Italian loanword. These were
particularly popular when there was still a lot of illiteracy or semi-literacy
and this was welcome entertainment for poor folk.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial;">Hanne wants to know if there
are other such traditions. To kick off the answer, let me refer to the
corresponding English Wikipedia page on which a number of similar traditions
are mentioned, including those in Dutch- and English-speaking areas:</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial;"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cantastoria">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cantastoria</a></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial;"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial;">In the early 1980s, I was
still lucky to witness various types of ballad performances in China, even in the streets and parks of Beijing, a few of them
with pictures or acting for illustration. These traditions are known by many
names and vary according to local traditions. A very well know tradition is
that of Shaoxing Pinghu Diao (</span><span style="font-family: SimSun;" lang="ZH-CN">紹興平湖調</span>).
<span style="font-family: Arial;">Minimally the balladeer accompanies his or her
sung tales with bamboo clappers to mark the rhythm. More elaborate versions are
accompanied with other types of instruments. The facts that these traditions
are particularly popular in Northern China, that very similar traditions exist
in Mongolic- and Turkic-speaking cultures spread over a large area, that typically
Central Asian instruments are used, and that these traditions became popular in
the Yuan dynasty (1271–1368) under Mongolian rule when street performance art flourished
leads me to assume that this is the extension of a large Eurasian cultural complex.<br>
