Tuning into Chinese opera

A listener from New Jersey, named "Michele from NJ suburbia" comments online: "So refreshing to hear new material, from such an unusual source. Enjoying this very much and hope this will be a new range of offerings — more variety, less traditional classical. I had assumed this would be more of a Chinese composition rather than a Western one but very happy to listen to something not from the usual opera circuit."

"I am enjoying the opera by Hao Weiya immensely," says another listener, named Norma Marguiles, who listened to the opera via WETA, a leading public broadcasting station in Washington. "It's a beautiful and relaxing piece of music. Thank you very much for introducing it to us. I am big fan of opera and Mandarin language. This is a special treat."
