In the dramatic circle, Kunshan Tune usually refers to Shuimo Ditty reformed by Wei Liangfu and others. In fact, Kunshan Tune was just the tune of folk song in Kungshan area over an extended historical period before it became the tune of southern drama. It was commonly called Wuyu Kunshan Tune because folk song in Kunshan area was commonly known as Wuyu or Wu Song. Towards the end of the Yuan Dynasty, it was called Ciqu Kunshan Tune because the tune of folk song was used to sing ci and qu by Gu Jian, Gu Ying, Yang Weizhen and others. During the early Ming Dynasty, it was called Juqu Kunshan Tune because the tune of folk song was used to sing southern drama or legend. In Jiajing Era of the Ming Dynasty, the tune was reformed as Shuimo Ditty by Wei Liangfu and others, then it was put on stage by Liang Chenyu and other playwrights. As a result, the most glorious age of Kunju finally arrived. Thus Kunshan Tune experienced four stages of development including Wuyu, Ciqu, Juqu and Shuimo.
