As the first comprehensive and scholarly book on kunqu written in English, Joseph S.C. Lam’s Kunqu: A Classical Opera of Twenty-First-Century China , presents a holistic view of the 600-years-old genre which has recently been transformed into a vibrant world opera. Approaching kunqu from different perspectives, ranging from those of performers and producers to those of causal audience, dedicated connoisseurs, and scholarly critics, Lam describes the genre in its cultural, historical and performance contexts, and analyses its representative shows with a judicious blend of Chinese and international theories and methods. Lam posits that kunqu not only tells Chinese lives and dreams with virtuoso performance of literary lyrics, flowing melodies, and elegant dances, but also informs on the transformation of intangible cultural heritages and performing arts throughout the globalized world
