Abstract

In the Uyghur adaptation of the opera “Qizil chiragh”, the template of muqam lyrics and melody has been broken in the adaptation of the opera based on literary works. By putting the lyrics of Beijing Opera into the tones of muqam, the Uyghur opera music has made a new breakthrough and is deeply loved by people of all ethnic groups. In the Uyghur adaptation of the opera "Qizil chiragh", the rhythm of the story and the rhythm of the music are skillfully combined. The greatest achievement of the Uyghur adaptation of the opera "Qizil chiragh" is the introduction of muqam art into the Peking Opera.
