Regarded as one of China's jewels, Kunqu Opera is listed as an oral and intangible heritage of humanity by UNESCO. The-700 year old opera, one of China's oldest surviving opera forms, will arrive in Malaysia with 72 cast and crew and a 40 foot container from Nanjing, capital of the Jiangsu Province. With us today is Kok Kee Boon, concert promoter, producer and impresario, to enlighten us with the history of this production.
