Many fans of Beijing Opera are worried about the fate of this art form. The traditional plays make reference to many facts of pre-Cultural Revolutionlife and history that are unfamiliar to young people. Furthermore, many of the stylized movements have particular meanings that can be lost on uninitiated audiences. The acting and singing techniques, as well as costumes and makeup conventions, also owe much to the northern Qinqiang or Shanxi tradition.

Puccini heard the music box and decided to make Jasmine Flower a central motif of his final opera. He never visited Asia and died before finishing the piece that is full of historical inaccuracies, including events taking place in the Forbidden City more than 1,000 years before it was built.

The imperial families of the Sui and Tang intermarried with families of nomadic and Turkic origins in China’s Northwest.
