Henan Dadiao Quzi is classified as Quyi, a folk art form between song and traditional opera, emphasizing music and narrative more strongly than dramatic performance. This study investigates the role of Henan Dadiao Quzi in enhancing Quyi Opera literacy in contemporary Chinese education. Incorporating this traditional art form into school curricula can promote cultural, musical, and ethical literacy among students. Conducted in Nanyang, Henan Province, the study involved two key informants with over 20 years of experience in Henan Dadiao Quzi and one general informant, experienced in teaching and performing the art form. Data collection methods included semi-structured interviews, participant observation, and document analysis, with thematic analysis used to identify key themes. The findings reveal that Henan Dadiao Quzi significantly enhances students' understanding of cultural narratives, musical structures, and ethical values, thus promoting a deeper engagement with Chinese heritage. However, the study also identifies challenges in integrating traditional opera into modern educational frameworks, particularly in adapting the art form to contemporary teaching methods. Suggestions for future research include comparative analyses of other traditional art forms and the development of curriculum models that better incorporate traditional arts into contemporary education.
