What people are saying

kunqu opera

Although I am Chinese, I am not that sure I would like Kunqu Opera at the beginning.

At first, I learn this is because my teacher's command, but I have to say, there are so many things that surprised me that I never know that when Modern and Kunqu Opera combined together create that kind of beauty.

十分受教!一定会推荐给其他同学的! 经过这七周的课程,让我认识了昆曲,重新以新的眼光去看待中国传统艺术 真正大家风范 昆曲之美,始于曲牌、唱腔、剧本、舞台表现等眼耳鼻舌身意,终于其中所感所得之色身香味触法 课程设计很好,每个视频都在10分钟左右,不觉疲劳,有一种意犹未尽的感觉。介绍了昆曲中的入门知识,各位老师有深深的人格魅力,为自己的事业奉献,尤其侯少奎老师让人印象深刻。 very thorough examination of the beauty of Kunqu opera, a real eye-opener!

Definitely recommend this to people who love Kunqu Opera!

Easy to understand introduction to the art form of Kunqu Opera.
