Tea Picking Dance Original Song

Zhu Fengbo. The Tea Picking Dance Song is a folk song from Zhejiang Province, with lyrics and music by Zhou Dafeng, composed in 1958. It was originally composed in 1958 as the theme song and dance music for Yueju Opera's "Before the Rain", and this tea-picking dance song was specially filmed for Zhu Fengbo in the documentary movie of the Central News Film Studio in 1977, and was sung by Zhu Fengbo. This tea-picking dance song maintains the basic style of traditional tea-picking songs and dances, adopting the national five-tone levitation mode, with alternating modal materials, and the tune is cheerful and jumpy, reproducing the youthful and glowing appearance of tea-picking girls. The highest honor received was that in November 1987, "Tea Picking Dance" was selected as the Asia-Pacific Regional Music Teaching Material at the 12th UNESCO Asia-Pacific Regional Music Teaching Material Expert Meeting.
