Description

Kunqu Masters on Chinese Theatrical Performance offers an essential exploration of one of humanity's most refined theatrical traditions, recognised by UNESCO in 2001 as Intangible Cultural Heritage. This Anthem Studies volume brings together twelve carefully selected and translated English narrations from senior artists who are actively preserving kunqu's musical and performance traditions. Each performer narration illuminates the human processes behind the creation and transmission of celebrated xiqu pieces, providing intimate insight into how this ancient Chinese opera tradition continues to evolve through the dedicated work of master artists. With detailed annotations contextualising each narrative, the book serves as both an academic resource and a window into the living practice of one of the world's oldest performance art forms, making it invaluable for theatre scholars, performers, and anyone interested in Asian performing arts and cultural heritage.
