Suide is the center of northern Shaanxi Yangko. The performances, customs and styles of traditional Yangko are still preserved in the rural areas here, including the ancient villagers Nuo God Yangko, the 28-year-old Yangko, and the new Yangko that appeared after 1942. There are often dozens of yangko performers, some as many as nearly a hundred. Under the leadership of the umbrella head, they stepped on the sonorous gongs and drums and danced with the loud suona, twisting, swinging, walking, jumping and turning. Immersed in a happy and festive atmosphere, the Yangko performance in the northern Shaanxi Plateau is very prosperous. Yangko has absorbed artistic elements in the form of water boat, donkey running, stilts, lions and kicking fields. , spread in the local area, forming a huge yangko team.

In my early years, I often dressed up as a woman. With the development of the times, women are also involved. The men's and women's teams are dressed in colorful clothes or Yunjiao yangko clothes. The man wrapped his head in a towel, and the woman held colorful shoulders and Chinese towels. There are Paimenzi Yangko and Caimenyangko in Chinese New Year. On the fifteenth day of the first month, there are nine songs and lanterns. Oda Miao, also called Kicking Field, is divided into two-person field, four-person field and eight-person field. The dance movements are rich, bold and generous, which fully embodies the simple, simple, cheerful and optimistic character of the people in northern Shaanxi.

The main feature of northern Shaanxi Yangko performance is waist twisting, so it is also called' waist twisting Yangko', that is, it is centered on the waist and accompanied by gongs and drums. The head and upper body twist greatly with the arm, and the feet move forward, backward and left and right in a cross step. Up and down harmony, pace, colorful silk dance, colorful fan turn, and can also be accompanied by singing.

There are three main roles in northern Shaanxi Yangko, namely umbrella head, prose, martial body and clown. The leader of northern Shaanxi Yangko is called an umbrella head, one holding an umbrella and the other holding a tiger. Both props have auspicious meanings. Umbrella, meaning shelter for all beings, good weather; Tiger breeding is related to Sun Simiao, a famous doctor in Tang Dynasty. It is said that Sun Simiao once treated tigers. In order to facilitate observation and treatment, he opened the tiger's mouth with a hoop. This hoop is called tiger support. Later, the tiger support evolved into a bell ringing in the hands of folk doctors who treated diseases in rural areas and became the symbol of folk doctors. In the hands of the umbrella head, it has become a symbol of saving lives, and it is also an organ that directs the yangko team to perform and change the formation pattern. Umbrella head is the leader of the Yangko team, familiar with the traditional Yangko aria, and can improvise new words according to the atmosphere of the venue or the situation of each family. When singing, he led the singer, and all the players repeated his last sentence. The form is concise and lively, and the text is vivid and easy to understand, which makes the audience enjoy it. Now, after the reform, the function of yangko is different. Clothing can be modern clothing with a red ribbon at the waist. Props in your hand can be sickles, hammers and umbrellas. Don't be a clown, you can also combine it with the overlord whip.
