| The company was founded in 1983 by Chen Mei-O to perform Nanguan, an ancient form of music that |
| originated in Fujian Province in China and was taken to Taiwan around 1661. Nanguan falls into two |
| categories, the first a form of chamber music and the second a movement style derived from regional |
| opera in which the singers' moves are influenced by string puppetry. Today, Nanguan, also known as |
| Pear Orchard music and dance, is an integral part of Taiwan's culture. |
| |
| ''Yangexing'' served to introduce the dance style, performed here by women whose curved bodies |
| tilted slowly to the sides or quarter-pivoted flirtatiously, hands fluting back to assume shapes that |
| suggested the mudras of Indian dance. Hidden under the simple, beautifully colored robes, which gave |
| the ''Yangexing'' women the look of Raphael madonnas, feet carried gliding bodies about the stage in |
| quick, small steps that called to mind mechanical dolls. |
