Beschreibung (eng)

This lecture offers a brief glance at the historical perspectives of Kunqu and the passing on of the tradition from a performer's point of view. The main focus will be on the principles of performance, the use of the actor's body, voice, eyes and movements and the routing of energy throughout the body. Vocal enunciation rules to achieve the seamless Kunqu 'water-polished tunes/ music' will be unravelled. Some major role types and their characteristics will be touched on, and the Painted-faces will add colour and some mysticism to the presentation.
