Abstract: In the process of the emergence, development, dissemination and innovation of local operas, memory is always the main line hidden in it. The integration of multiple memories including time, space, voice, culture, society and history is the unique and important style that distinguishes local operas from other art forms. With the memory of local operas as the research object, this paper takes Anhui Lu Opera as an example to explore the content and mode of local opera memory from the three dimensions of music, language and space. Music memory includes traditional opera, local folk songs and contemporary music. Language memory, including local dialects and accents, has always played an important role in local operas. Memories of physical space, social space and psychological space appear in the form of cultural symbols such as lyrics, music and programs, recording numerous historical events and the real status of people's life.

Key words: local opera, memory, Lu Opera
