Kunqu


Overview

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Kunqu is one of the oldest extant forms of Chinese opera. It evolved from the Kunshan melody, and dominated Chinese theatre from the 16th to the 18th centuries. The style originated in the Wu cultural area. It is listed as one of the Masterpieces of the Oral and Intangible Heritage of Humanity by UNESCO since 2001. Kunqu (Kunshan play) was developed during the late Yuan Dynasty (14th), by Gu Jian of Qiandeng town in Kunshan, and due to its influence on other Chinese theatre forms, it is known as the teacher or mother of a hundred operas, including Jingju (Peking Opera).
