The early pattern of xipi (西皮) and erhuang (二簧) tuning systems are a very important consideration for inquiring into the origin and formation of xipi and erhuang tuning systems. The Gongche scores of xipi and erhuang tunes, handwritten in the 19th Century, noted down the early pattern of xipi and erhuang tuning systems. This paper analyses the Yinyazhai (音雅齋) and Chewangfu (車王府) scores of xipi tunes, aiming at revealing the early pattern of xipi tuning.
The musical pattern of these 19(superscript th) Century scores of xipi tunes is different from the musical pattern of xipi tunes of Peking Opera at present. The Yinyazhai and Chewangfu scores were both handwritten in Beijing, and they manifest main charactistics of 19(superscript th) Century Peking Opera xipi tunes. The Huixi (徽戲) score of xipi tunes, also handwritten in the 19(superscript th) Century in angzhou, is similar in music pattern to xipi tunes of present day Peking Opera. This evinces relations between the current music pattern of Peking Opera and that of Chinese traditional opera south of the Changjiang River.
