【新加坡歌台传统文化】

新加坡歌台最早可以追溯到二十世纪二三十年代，当时举办歌台是为了庆祝传统节日中元节。根据佛教传说，孤魂野鬼会在农历七月十五日回返人间。这一天人们要祭拜鬼神。歌台在当时就是祭拜仪式时安抚鬼神的节目。

因此，每年农历七月举办歌台的传统至少已有90多年的历史。

在早期，歌台表演主要以传统戏曲为主，如粤剧、潮剧、琼剧等。随着时间的推移，歌台表演逐渐加入了流行歌曲、杂耍、相声等元素，成为一种综合性的娱乐活动。

如今，每年农历七月，新加坡各地都会举办各种规模的歌台表演，吸引了众多观众前来观看。歌台表演已成为新加坡独特的民间传统文化，是新加坡人喜爱的传统娱乐活动之一。

现在歌台表演开始走向通俗化，成为一种草根性的娱乐活动。
歌台表演进一步发展，成为新加坡独特的民间传统文化。
2000年至今：歌台表演在保持传统的基础上，不断创新…，吸引了更多年轻观众。

上传这一系列歌台文化，是想让一部分从年轻就喜欢看歌台的人，到现在年纪大不方便出门，又能勾起了他一部分回忆的老年人，在家里也让观看到歌台。

也借着这个歌台文化，希望能够保留新加坡的传统文化，不要被遗失，能够继续的延伸下去。

[注：歌曲的部分就是整个歌台的精髓，那就意味着可能会因为版权的问题，如果因为版权的问题，就没法播放的歌曲，歌台就不能称为歌台文化，希望有关当局能够酌情处理，让歌台的文化能够继续下去。]

[Singapore Getai Traditional Culture]

The Singapore Getai can be traced back to the 1920s and 1930s, when it was held to celebrate the traditional festival of the Ghost Festival. According to Buddhist legend, lonely ghosts will return to the world on the 15th day of the seventh lunar month. On this day, people worship ghosts and gods. At that time, getai was a program used to appease ghosts and gods during worship ceremonies.

Therefore, the tradition of holding a getai every July of the lunar calendar has a history of at least more than 90 years.

In the early days, getai performances were mainly based on traditional operas, such as Cantonese opera, Teochew opera, Qiong opera, etc. Over time, the getai performance gradually added elements such as pop songs, juggling, and cross talk, becoming a comprehensive entertainment activity.

Nowadays, every year in the seventh lunar month, getai performances of various sizes are held across Singapore, attracting many audiences. Getai performances have become Singapore's unique folk traditional culture and one of Singaporeans' favorite traditional entertainment activities.

Nowadays, getai performances are beginning to become popular and become a grassroots entertainment activity.
Getai performances further developed and became Singapore's unique folk traditional culture.
2000 to present: Getai performances continue to innovate on the basis of maintaining tradition... attracting more young audiences.

The purpose of uploading this series of getai culture is to allow some people who have liked to watch getai since they were young, and now the elderly who are too old to go out, but it can also bring back some of their memories, so that they can watch getai at home. .

Through this getai culture, I hope that Singapore’s traditional culture can be preserved, not lost, and can continue to be extended.

[Note: The song part is the essence of the entire getai, which means that there may be copyright issues. If the songs cannot be played due to copyright issues, the getai cannot be called getai culture. I hope the relevant authorities We can handle it as appropriate so that the culture of Getai can continue. ]
