The tea-picking opera(戏剧 xìjù), performed(表演 biǎoyǎn) by artists from Nanchang County of southern China's Jiangxi Province, won applause(鼓掌 gǔzhǎng) among audience(观众 guānzhòng) Wednesday in Prague, capital of Czech Republic.
At today's stage(舞台 wǔtái), besides traditional tea-picking opera, artists also performed other Chinese traditional arts and folksongs(民歌 míngē), like Peking Operas and Sichuan opera "Changing faces(变脸 biànliǎn)".
"We can feel the passion of the audience, they really enjoyed it," said Li Rujiang, Chairman of the Czech-China economic, trade and culture promotion association, who helped organize the event.
The tea-picking opera originally derived from the tea-growing regions(地区 dìqū) in Jiangxi Province wher the tea pickers would sing lengthy songs to each other whilst undertaking the monotonous task of tea-picking. These folk songs were gradually adopted by performing troupes of singers and eventually became known as Tea picking operas.
After the Prague tour, the troupe will also perform in Germany and the Netherlands in the next days.
