Kunqu Society
Hello Yurong,
I think this is a great idea. I am just testing it now!
Hi, there
Tom Tsui
Founded in 1988 and incorporated in 1989, the Kunqu Society is dedicated to the study, promotion and preservation of Kunqu, a genre of Chinese theatre proclaimed as “Masterpiece of the Oral and Intangible Heritage of Humanity” by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) in 2001. The mission of the Society is four-fold: (1) To present Kunqu performances and give educational lecture/demonstrations in order to increase awareness of and introduce new audiences to Kunqu; (2) To offer low-cost Kunqu classes to the general public; (3) To provide opportunities for Kunqu artists to showcase, maintain and sharpen their performing skills and to teach and pass on the Kunqu art; and, (4) To produce and maintain written and audio/visual materials about Kunqu (newsletters, CDs and tapes) for the purposes of documentation and preservation.
