Cantonese Opera: The Essence and Beauty of Hong Kong’s Cantonese Opera

"Zhaojun Going Abroad" is a classic song written by Cantonese Opera Master Ma Shizeng and a representative repertoire piece of Hong Xiannu. We are honoured to have Ms. Guo Fengnu, an inheritor of the "Hong" School, perform this repertoire today. Her performance not only retains the essence of the original singing voice but also showcases her own distinct artistic characteristics. Dr. Sammi Li Yu, the granddaughter of Cantonese Opera Master Pak Kui Wing, has been invited to highlight the four core elements of Cantonese opera: "singing, acting, reciting, and fencing." In addition, she will introduce the audience to Cantonese opera music, encompassing "wind, pluck, string, and percussion."
