The Second Phase of Voice of Lacquer Workshop — Oriental Lacquer Charm Meets Elegant Opera Melodies.
We invite distinguished opera inheritors to deliver immersive beginner Peking Opera training. Participants will learn the basic skills of singing, recitation, acting and acrobatics in person, and experience the charm and verve of Peking Opera up close.
Lacquer paintings embody exquisite craftsmanship, while Peking Opera carries timeless classic elegance. Both are precious treasures of profound traditional Chinese arts. Two renowned artists will share the origin, development and cultural context of lacquer art and Peking Opera. Guests may interact freely, savour the beauty of traditional culture, explore the essence of oriental heritage, and indulge in a splendid feast of traditional Chinese art amid artistic paintings and melodious opera tunes.
