Masterpieces of Chinese Music: A Musical Performance by Music from China
Learn more about the exhibition Eccentric Visions: The Worlds of Luo Ping (1733—1799), on view at the Met October 6, 2009—January 10, 2010:
The rich sonorities and compelling melodies of Chinese music are invoked on string instruments consisting of the erhu and related two-string fiddles, pipa (lute), zheng (long, plucked zither), ruan (moon guitar), and yangqin (hammered dulcimer). The ensemble Music from China performs masterworks from the Chinese classical and folk repertoire with an array of stylistic variations, timbral colors, and musical imagery. The program includes such immortal classical compositions as Ambush on Ten Sides, a powerful re-creation of a third-century battle scene, and the romance with nature of A Moonlit River in Spring. Folk music selections span China's broad landscape, from the urban sophistication of Shanghai and Guangzhou (Canton) to the vast expanse of the Mongolian steppes.

The new China - Guangzhou (Kanton) new centre, skycrapers & TV tower - Das moderne China
Visiting Guangzhou, China, you see the 3rd biggest city in China - with around 10 million people. The city has a very modern side with skyscrapers but also a traditional one with temples. Here we can see the new centre with its skyline and the highest TV tower on earth as well as the opera house.
Die Stadt, unser Halt, ist Guangzhou oder auch als Kanton bekannt. Auch die Provinz heißt Kanton. Die Stadt hat eine koloniale Vergangenheit und sogar einen Stadtteil mit Häusern im Europäischen Stil. Hier sehen wir das neue Zentrum der Stadt - mit den Wolkenkratzern, dem höchsten Fernsehturm der Welt und dem Opernhaus. Hier sieht man, wo die Musik (im wahrsten Sinne und im methaphorischen) gerade spielt in der Welt. Diese 10 Millionen Metropole entwickelt sich anscheinend zum Nabel der Welt.

粵劇文物館 Cantonese Opera Heritage Hall
There is a long history of Chinese Opera. According the difference of region, language and culture, there are hundreds of varieties of different Chinese Operas. According to the statistics result of the Chinese National Academy of Arts, there are 367 types of Chinese Operas in the 1950s and 267 types existing types of Chinese Operas in 2005. Cantonese Opera is the major type of Chinese Opera in Guangdong. In 2009, Cantonese Opera, Beijing Opera and Tibetan opera were listed as the UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage.
## Origin of Cantonese Opera
Cantonese Opera is also known as “Guangdong Drama” as it is found in Guangdong. It was found in the Ming Dynasty (around 1522-1566). Cantonese Opera is a blend of different opera styles of other Chinese opera and the tradition of Guangdong music and telling storesi through song.
Foshan was the home for most Cantonese Opera in around 1736-1795. In around 1851-1861, Artist Li Wenmao launched a revolution against the Chinese Government resulting in a ban against Cantonese Opera. Later the ban was lifted and Cantonese Opera developed again and moved from Foshan to Guangzhou. The language of Cantonese Opera also gradually shifted from Guilin Mandarin to Cantonese.
## The stage of early Cantonese Opera – Bamboo Shed Theatre
In the early stage, Cantonese Opera was performed on the temple stage or under a temporary shed built on village grounds. The simplest forms of village theatre could just be putting a few table together. And the most elaborate sheds contain a stage, audience seats and also a backstage. Shed theaters were made from bamboo which is highly flammable. Later in 1960s, shed theatres were made of galvanized iron. But during traditional events today, we can still bamboo shed theatres in Hong Kong.
## The stage of early Cantonese Opera – temple Stage
Temple stage was a performance venue built in temples. It was the main performance venue of Cantonese Opera in the early stage. But now there no active temple stage anymore. The oldest existing temple stage is the Wanfutai in Foshan, Guangdong. Wanfutai means “Ten Thousand Blessings Opera Stage” in Chinese. It is the one of the most important venue in the history of Cantonese Opera. IN the early stage, all newly formed opera trouple had to stage their first performance at the Wanfutai.
## Cantonese Opera in Hong Kong – Red Boat Troupe
As Cantonese Opera became popular in Guangdong, Opera troupes started to have tours in Guangdong. Each troupe had their own boat called the “Red Boat”. The life in a Red Boat Troupe was rigid with rules for allocation of beds as well as the division of labor for artist. It is the base of the structure of a Cantonese Opera Troupe nowadays. Because of Red Boat, Cantonese Opera was brought to Hong Kong.
In the 1930s, Cantonese Opera troupes started to performed in Cinema and the transportation between cities became convenient, resulting in the gradual disappearance of the Red Boat Troupe.
## Cantonese Opera in Hong Kong – Center of Cantonese Opera
Since Cantonese Opera started perform in Hong Kong, it became the major entertainment in Hong Kong. Many new Cantonese Opera Troupes were formed in HK, like the Kok Sin Sing Opera Troupe by Sit Kok Sin and the Tai Ping Opera Troupe by Ma Sze Tsang. They renovated Cantonese Opera from music to acting style and moved the performance stage into cinema.
At the end of 1950s, famous troupes started to leave HK to perform in the USA and Canada. Plus, the development of film industry, the attraction of Cantonese Opera decreased. Luckily there were lot of new Cantonese Opera Troupes formed and started to produce Cantonese Opera film. In China, due to the Cultural Revolution, Cantonese Opera was banned and artists escaped to HK. HK became the new center of Cantonese Opera.

Dooho Choi vs. Bruce Lee (EA Sports UFC 3)
????Bruce Lee UFC -
????Bruce Lee (EA Sports UFC 2) -
????Bruce Lee (EA Sports UFC 3) -
Bruce Lee was a Hong Kong and American actor, film director, martial artist, martial arts instructor, philosopher, and founder of the martial art Jeet Kune Do, one of the wushu or kungfu styles. Lee was the son of Cantonese opera star Lee Hoi-chuen. He is widely considered by commentators, critics, media, and other martial artists to be one of the most influential martial artists of all time and a pop culture icon of the 20th century.He is often credited with helping to change the way Asians were presented in American films.
The son of Cantonese opera star Lee Hoi-chuen, Lee was born in the Chinatown area of San Francisco, California, on November 27, 1940, to parents from Hong Kong, and was raised with his family in Kowloon, Hong Kong. He was introduced to the film industry by his father and appeared in several films as a child actor. Lee moved to the United States at the age of 18 to receive his higher education at the University of Washington in Seattle, and it was during this time that he began teaching martial arts. His Hong Kong and Hollywood-produced films elevated the traditional Hong Kong martial arts film to a new level of popularity and acclaim, sparking a surge of interest in Chinese martial arts in the West in the 1970s. The direction and tone of his films dramatically changed and influenced martial arts and martial arts films in the US, Hong Kong, and the rest of the world.
He is noted for his roles in five feature-length martial arts films in the early 1970s: Lo Wei's The Big Boss (1971) and Fist of Fury (1972); Golden Harvest's Way of the Dragon (1972), directed and written by Lee; Golden Harvest and Warner Brothers' Enter the Dragon (1973) and The Game of Death (1978), both directed by Robert Clouse. Lee became an iconic figure known throughout the world, particularly among the Chinese, based upon his portrayal of Chinese nationalism in his films and among Asian Americans for defying stereotypes associated with the emasculated Asian male. He trained in the art of Wing Chun and later combined his other influences from various sources into the spirit of his personal martial arts philosophy, which he dubbed Jeet Kune Do (The Way of the Intercepting Fist). Lee held dual nationality in Hong Kong and the US. He died in Hong Kong on July 20, 1973 at the age of 32, and was buried in Seattle.
Legacy
Bruce Lee was named by Time magazine as one of the 100 most influential people of the 20th century. In April 2013, he was posthumously awarded the prestigious Founders Award at The Asian Awards.
There are several sites dedicated to Lee around the world:
A 2.5 m (8.2 ft) bronze statue of Lee was unveiled in Hong Kong in 2005, on what would have been his 65th birthday. The day before the Hong Kong statue was dedicated, the city of Mostar in Bosnia and Herzegovina unveiled its own 1.68 m (5.5 ft) bronze statue; supporters of the statue cited Lee as a unifying symbol against the ethnic divisions in the country, which had culminated in the 1992-95 Bosnian War. Another statue of Lee was unveiled in Los Angeles, in the Chinatown neighborhood, on June 15, 2013. It stands at 7 ft (210 cm) tall and was made in Guangzhou, China.
On January 6, 2009, it was announced that Lee's Hong Kong home (41 Cumberland Road, Kowloon, Hong Kong) would be preserved and transformed into a tourist site by Yu Pang-lin. Yu died in 2015 and this plan did not materialize. In 2018, Yu's grandson, Pang Chi-ping, said: We will convert the mansion into a centre for Chinese studies next year, which provides courses like Mandarin and Chinese music for children.
A theme park dedicated to Lee was built in Jun'an, Guangdong. Mainland Chinese only started watching Bruce Lee films in the 1980s, when videos of classic movies like The Chinese Connection became available. Films like Enter the Dragon and Fists of Fury were banned by Mao as spiritual pollution and rightist sentimentality.
In April 2014, Lee was named a featured character in the video game EA Sports UFC, and is playable in multiple weight classes.

He was introduced to the film industry by his father and appeared in several films as a child actor. Lee moved to the United States at the age of 18 to receive his higher education at the University of Washington in Seattle, and it was during this time that he began teaching martial arts. His Hong Kong and Hollywood-produced films elevated the traditional Hong Kong martial arts film to a new level of popularity and acclaim, sparking a surge of interest in Chinese martial arts in the West in the 1970s. The direction and tone of his films dramatically changed and influenced martial arts and martial arts films in the US, Hong Kong, and the rest of the world.
He is noted for his roles in five feature-length martial arts films in the early 1970s: Lo Wei's The Big Boss (1971) and Fist of Fury (1972); Golden Harvest's Way of the Dragon (1972), directed and written by Lee; Golden Harvest and Warner Brothers' Enter the Dragon (1973) and The Game of Death (1978), both directed by Robert Clouse. Lee became an iconic figure known throughout the world, particularly among the Chinese, based upon his portrayal of Chinese nationalism in his films and among Asian Americans for defying stereotypes associated with the emasculated Asian male. He trained in the art of Wing Chun and later combined his other influences from various sources into the spirit of his personal martial arts philosophy, which he dubbed Jeet Kune Do (The Way of the Intercepting Fist). Lee held dual nationality in Hong Kong and the US. He died in Hong Kong on July 20, 1973 at the age of 32, and was buried in Seattle.

There are several sites dedicated to Lee around the world:
A 2.5 m (8.2 ft) bronze statue of Lee was unveiled in Hong Kong in 2005, on what would have been his 65th birthday. The day before the Hong Kong statue was dedicated, the city of Mostar in Bosnia and Herzegovina unveiled its own 1.68 m (5.5 ft) bronze statue; supporters of the statue cited Lee as a unifying symbol against the ethnic divisions in the country, which had culminated in the 1992-95 Bosnian War. Another statue of Lee was unveiled in Los Angeles, in the Chinatown neighborhood, on June 15, 2013. It stands at 7 ft (210 cm) tall and was made in Guangzhou, China.
On January 6, 2009, it was announced that Lee's Hong Kong home (41 Cumberland Road, Kowloon, Hong Kong) would be preserved and transformed into a tourist site by Yu Pang-lin. Yu died in 2015 and this plan did not materialize. In 2018, Yu's grandson, Pang Chi-ping, said: We will convert the mansion into a centre for Chinese studies next year, which provides courses like Mandarin and Chinese music for children.
A theme park dedicated to Lee was built in Jun'an, Guangdong. Mainland Chinese only started watching Bruce Lee films in the 1980s, when videos of classic movies like The Chinese Connection became available. Films like Enter the Dragon and Fists of Fury were banned by Mao as spiritual pollution and rightist sentimentality.
In April 2014, Lee was named a featured character in the video game EA Sports UFC, and is playable in multiple weight classes.
