Selected Peking Opera Arias of Mei School by Wei Haimin
Date: April 7-8 - 7:30 pm
Venue: National Center for the Performing Arts
Price: 120-580 yuan
As an inheritor of Mei School of Peking Opera, Mei Baojiu used to serve as President of Mei Lanfang Peking Opera Troupe. Wei Haimin is a famous Peking Opera actress playing female lead roles. Since childhood, she has accepted related performance training in Taiwan. In June 1991, Haimin went to Beijing and became Mei Baojiu's first disciple. This officially kicked off Mei School inheritance in the contemporary era. In April 2016, Mei Baojiu suddenly passed away. So Haimin decided to open this opera concert with the theme of "Beside the Plum: Nine Odes" to commemorate her teacher. This will bring together nine most classical arias of Mei School, including the representative arias from Fairy Sending Flowers, Xi Shi, Regrets of Life and Death, Imperial Concubine Yang, Farewell to My Concubine, The Universal Pagoda, Goddess of Luo River and Lady General Mu Takes Command. Moreover, excerpts from Kunqu Opera Peony Pavilion are also included.
