用芭蕾舞这一外来的艺术形式表现本国的文学名著,这是我国舞蹈界开拓芭蕾民族化道路的一种尝试。改编工作从《白毛女》算起,已有二十年的历史,其间,一些有志于此的编导者们一直在进行艰苦的追求。近几年来,陆续出现了《雷雨》、《家》、《祝福》、《魂》、《林黛玉》等一批芭蕾舞新剧目,引起了人们的关注。 To use ballet, an exotic art form to represent the country’s literary masterpieces, is an attempt by our dance community to develop the ballet nationalization. The adaptation work has been going on for twenty years since the White-Haired Girl. In the meantime, some devoted editors have been making painstaking efforts. In recent years, a series of new ballet repertoires such as Thunderstorm, Home, Blessing, Soul and Lin Daiyu have aroused people’s attention.
