This is a fantastic 10 part series of documentaries on the 600 year history of the Kunqu Opera.
The Kunqu Opera (昆曲) was the most popular form of entertainment in China for many centuries up until the late 19th century, where it was torn apart by war just as the rest of the country. The decline of Kunqu was inevitable, as less and less people were educated enough to understand and appreciate the eternal beauty of the Kunqu lyrics and performances. By the 1920s, Kunqu was almost extinct.
Kunqu was the ancestor of all forms of Chinese opera, elements of Kunqu performances were borrowed by and absorbed into other operas such as the Peking Opera, the Huang'mei Opera, the Yue Opera, the Shanghai Opera, the Sichuan Opera, etc.
After the founding of The People's Republic of China, Kunqu was revived again, and now many performances are held regularly across China. The latest performances including the staging of The Peony Pavilion (young people's edition) in the Peiking University. Younger generations are showing increasing interest in this beautiful traditional opera.
The ability to appreciate Kunqu opera is a must for anyone who wish to achieve higher mastery of the Chinese language and literature (actually higher mastery of both Chinese and English if you are appreciating this documentary series).
