About Chinese singing

ZJShen-PSimon — Wed, 15 Sep 2010 13:11:27 +0000

For those interested in Chinese or Classical European singing, I’d like to announce that a book comparing these is hoped to be published in a couple of months time, which I helped Chinese singer/teacher Ms. Shen to write. Links to our music examples that are referred to in this book are already available on my youtube site, http://www.youtube.com/speterkar with numbers in square brackets, e.g. [17]. We hope some of you are coming back later in interest in this book.

Hello world!

I hope you’ll like the images I’m going to post. The Chinese paintings and calligraphy you can see on my pages are up for sale, please contact me here or at speterkar@yahoo.com if you’re interested. They’re not expensive! I like lots of things Chinese, so I’ll post photos from where I’ve been there. You can comment on them or share your experience and curiosity. But, above all, enjoy! You can also see a video of the small shop where the paintings are, here:

I’m also posting an excerpt of a book my Chinese friend and I have written about classical singing, to be published shortly. It compares learning classical singing in Europe and China, and can soon be downloaded for a small fee by those interested. Most of the music videos linked to this book are already available on my youtube site, for free, of course.
