Opera of Qingdao

Cities and Memory - remixing the world

"Qingdao was once a German colony and the city is an exotic place with Western-style buildings. It is also relatively close to Japan and has historical ties. The recorded opera is probably Peking Opera, judging from the language.
"Mainland China is so vast that the West could completely fit in it, and it is likely that the performers of this opera toured around the country."
