ABSTRACT: Dance is actually a carrier of culture, which ripples in the long river of history and makes future changes possible. The first performance of “Ordos Dance” directed by Mr. Jia Zuoguang in 1953 explored the living conditions of the Mongolian people, created the basic vocabulary of Mongolian dance, constructed the stage presentation of folk primitive ecology, and opened up a new era of Mongolian dance with its unique artistic expression. The author will also analyze the reasons why “Ordos Dance” has become a classic from three aspects: rhythm, composition, and core.
