20/01/2012 农历12月27日 （Fri): Went to Sheng Hong Temple. We were late tonight. after taking bus, we only reached at 840pm. Then we went to buy tickets for Chu Yi Taiwan Opera Troupe. At the ticket counter, we cannot resisted watching the taiwan opera. I remember that time i told my ex colleague that i liked to watch getaixi, he was liking telling me he and i almost young age.. i am like..???. I know what he meant. Normally young singaporeans (i not so young also lah but i watched gezaixi since Year 2006 in Sheng Hong Temple) do not watch Opera. I only watched Taiwan opera and i truly enjoy gezaixi as much as getai.
I watched for around 945pm after the opera troupe members came out to sing CNY greetings to audience. I had watched Xiu Qin Last year too, their performance are not too bad but it is unfortunate that sheng hong temple do not allow video recording. Actually for me, i wil not record whole show, i just liked certain songs in gezaixi like the 百花开, 茶花女調 and 状元调. It is quite a disappointment but over in youtube, there are dozens of taiwan opera lovers that took video of different troupe in Taiwan and uploaded them to youtube. It is their love for opera that keep Taiwan Opera to become so famous... Singapore Opera, the only troupe i like is xiao qi ling coz they always used taiwanese in their performance.
秀琴歌剧团 - the person in white is Xiu Qing(xiao Sheng) The boss of the troupe. The other lady beside her is Zhuang Jin Mei, the hua dan
GETAI
碰头组合
Wu Pei Zhi
Xie Wen - heard he quit his job in the medical hall to be a full time getai singer. Wise choice coz he can sing very well and he is v humble too..coz he kept thanking his teacher wang lei and reminded all of us his teacher is Wang Lei.
