We got even more excited when the performance was about to begin-audience from different parts of the world made the atmosphere hot. The performance began with a thrilling starting music. It was folk music played with Chinese traditional instruments. by Teahouse Music Band. The drum beats immediately dragged peoples attention. After starting music was Peking Opera Highlights with the name Presents from Magu. I didnt quite follow its plot because I didnt understand their singing. However, I like the music and the way it was presented. The most unforgettable show came when an artist from Sichuan started performing Face-Changing of Sichuan Opera. It was just like magic. He changed his face so quickly that no one could tell how he could manage that. This show gained much applause from the audience.无忧雅思网!eKKbq(J+;无忧雅思网(L,KP3%0e I am glad that I took my friends from the US to the Laoshe Teahouse that evening. We had wonderful time there.
