It has a rich history dating back to the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644) and has been passed down through generations of performers and audiences alike.

One of the most iconic elements of this art form is the elaborate costumes worn by the actors, particularly the jade hairpin costume worn by female roles.

The jade hairpin costume is a symbol of elegance and beauty in Chinese culture.

It consists of a long, flowing dress with intricate embroidery and a matching headpiece made of jade.

The dress is often adorned with colorful silk ribbons and other embellishments, which add to its overall grandeur.

The headpiece, or "jade hairpin," is a small, intricately designed piece of jewelry that is worn on the head.

It is often made of precious metals such as gold or silver and features intricate designs and patterns.

In addition to the jade hairpin costume, there are many other types of costumes used in Chinese classical shaoxing opera.

These include the qipao, a form-fitting dress worn by male characters, and the changshan, a long robe worn by female characters.

Each costume is designed to reflect the character's personality and role in the story.

The music of Chinese classical shaoxing opera is also an important aspect of this art form.

It is characterized by its use of traditional instruments such as the erhu, pipa, and guzheng.

The music is often accompanied by singing and dancing performances, which add to the overall spectacle of the show.

Overall, Chinese classical shaoxing opera is a beautiful and complex art form that combines music, dance, and theater into a unique cultural experience.

Its elaborate costumes and intricate music continue to captivate audiences around the world, making it one of China's most treasured cultural heritages.
