Title: Chinese Culture in Canada: The Philosophy of Chinese Traditional Opera and Performance Practices of Cantonese Opera Artist Ieong Hoi Seng
Abstract: Cantonese Opera Artist Ieong Hoi Seng began his career in Zhanjiang, Guangdong, becoming a renowned "wenwu sheng" (actor specializing in both literary and martial roles). He moved to Macau and founded the Macau Cantonese Opera Academy, later moved to Vancouver and established the Ieong Hoi Seng Cantonese Opera Academy and the Canadian Cantonese Opera Association. With over six decades of a great wealth of artistic experience and the title of "Universal Master" in Canada, Ieong Hoi Seng is virtuous and accomplished, holding traditional yet open-minded views on the art form. He has promoted Cantonese opera education both domestically and internationally, collected and preserved opera-related artifacts and documents, and remained steadfast in his commitment to passing down the art. His contributions are widely admired in Canada, which also reflect the contemporary dissemination of Chinese traditional opera in North America.
