notes:

Beijing opera is one of China's major operas, from the mid-Qing Hui stressed that Beijing confluence of Chinese and evolution of transfer have been introduced synthesis. Accent to West, two yellow-based, with violin and percussion and other accompaniment, after the popular nationwide.
Peking Opera combines music, acrobatic dance, and spectacular costumes to tell stories from Chinese history and folklore. Using abstract, symbolic gestures rich in dramatic meaning, actors represent personages from the heroic, divine, and animal worlds, often in martial exploits. The traditional features of the masklike makeup and elaborate costumes immediately identify the characters to a knowing audience.
