曲藝社介紹 Introducing of Cantonese Opera Group

From Hani Law – member of The Cantonese Opera Group

I joined the Cantonese opera group in 2015.

The Cantonese opera group had invited/sponsored Master Luo Qinger, a renowned head musician and a
famous Chinese national first class artist, Luo Chow Ping from HK/China who came to London to perform with us in 2016 in celebration of the 30 years of service of ICA, and Luo gave a lecture on the instrumental and singing techniques of the Cantonese opera.

We also had organised a London and Hong Kong Cantonese opera show in 2018, invited Lee Tim But, a
proficient amateur singer together with three proficient amateur singers from HK to perform in the Rudolf
Steiner Theatre in London.

In 2020, the Cantonese opera group arranged with SOAS, University of London to present a Cantonese
Operatic and Chinese Music show with the participation of their Chinese Music Ensemble and the Cantonese opera group. Sadly it was not materialised because of COVID-19.

We planned to perform a live streaming Cantonese opera performance to raise funds for the NHS Covid19 Emergency Fund in 2020. Owing to COVI19 restrictions, members were not be able to perform the live show but we had raised £3,300.00.

In September 2021, the Cantonese opera group hosted a cultural event in promoting Cantonese opera
and an introduction of the famous poems of Li Yu with the support of the HKETO.

曲藝社介紹 – 羅馬麗花女士

我在2015年加入曲藝社。

2016年，為慶祝ICA成立30週年，曲藝社特邀/贊助著名音樂家羅清兒大師及來自香港/中國的著名中國國家一級藝術家羅周平來倫敦與我們一起演出。而羅周平教授同時發表了一個關於粵劇的器樂和演唱技巧的演講。

2018年，我們組織了一個聯合倫敦和香港的粵劇表演，邀請了資深業餘歌手李添布先生與三位來自香港的資深業餘歌手在倫敦魯道夫施泰納劇院演出。

2020年，曲藝社與倫敦大學亞非學院的中國音樂團合作演出中國音樂和粵劇。遺憾的是由於 COVID-19，表演最終沒有實現。

我們計劃在 2020 年進行網上粵劇表演直播，為 NHS Covid19 應急基金籌集資金。由於 COVI19 的限制，會員無法進行現場表演，但我們最終籌集了 3,300.00 英鎊。

2021年9月粵劇團舉辦粵劇文化推廣活動並在香港經貿辦的支持下介紹了李宇的名詩。
