@MLNow My mother used to take me to a #ChineseOpera for company when I was a child but I hated it because I didn't speak or understand the language (& still don't beyond a very rudimentary level) & the because the sound was so "foreign" & unappealing to me. 🤷♂️
I couldn't even stand to listen to the entirety of the short Chinese Opera audio clip embedded in this article. 🤢
She stopped taking me any Chinese opera performances because I was very vocal about not liking it &, unlike my inability to speak #Cantonese better, I do not regret not attending another Chinese Opera performance since.
OBTW, I don't much like attending or listening to European Opera either. 🤷♂️

@drahardja If you want to buy a CD or LP of the #MadChinaman, they're available on #Discogs. CDs are going for around $20 including shipping but the LPs have achieved cult collector status at around $200. 😲
The music on the album (what little I was allowed to listen to) is not my thing but I like to #ChineseOpera cover art which I may use as an avatar somewhere.
BTW, I still cringe at & avoid using the term #Chinaman, even if it's used by #Chinese or other #Asians to take back #ownership of the slur but, since it's the title of the album, I made an exception in this case.

#Teochew #Chinese #Momism - my Mom, randomly, a few minutes ago, as we're getting ready to head out for errands:
"You know, Teochew opera performers were the original Chinese #DragQueens . They're amazing & beautiful performers."

Artists at work: 75-year-old Beijing opera / Hebei Clapper opera star Pei Yanling 裴艷玲 (masked) beats the crap out of a much younger man in a rehearsal of “Drunken Pounding at the Temple Gates 醉打山門”, filmed a couple days ago in Hong Kong.

Three cheers for opera troupes who broadcast their 9:30 am performances. They happily coincide with my cocktail hour here in San Francisco.
(The Dapingdiao 大平調 troupe of Neihuang 內黃 county performs “Li Yanlong Tames the South 李彥龍征 aka The Two Scholars 文武雙狀元”)
You’ll occasionally find troupes in that region who give three performances a day, each performance lasting 3-4 hours with an hour+ break in between shows.
Bring your own chair.

I’m still enchanted by the high-pitched “second voice” of Dapingdiao 大平調 opera.
