Peking Opera also known as the Beijing opera still follows traditional Chinese arts in stressing the meaning, rather than precise actions. Opera artists' goal is to make every performance exceptionally beautiful in every movement they will make. The performer's vocal techniques as well as rhythms and melodies vary depending on his or her thoughts and feelings adhering to basic, strict conventions that are based on real life experiences presented in an artistic and symbolic manner. Peking opera is a form of traditional Chinese theatre which combines music, vocal performance, mime, dance and acrobatics. It arose in the late 18th century and became fully developed and recognized by the mid-19th century. The form was extremely popular in the Qing Dynasty court and has come to be regarded as one of the cultural treasures of China. Peking opera is not actually a monolithic form, but rather a coalescence of many older forms. However, the new form also introduced its own innovations. The vocal requirements for all of the major roles were greatly reduced for Peking opera. The Chou, in particular, rarely has a singing part in Peking opera, unlike the equivalent role in Kunqu style. The melodies that accompany each play were also simplified, and are played with different traditional instruments than in earlier forms. Perhaps most noticeably, true acrobatic elements were introduced with Peking opera. The popularity of Peking opera has been attributed to the simplicity of the form, with only a few voices and singing patterns. This allowed anyone to sing the arias themselves. Beijing opera follows other traditional Chinese arts in emphasizing meaning, rather than accuracy. The highest aim of performers is to put beauty into every motion. Indeed, performers are strictly criticized for lacking beauty during training. Additionally, performers are taught to create a synthesis between the different aspects of Beijing opera. The four skills of Beijing opera are not separate, but rather should be combined in a single performance. One skill may take precedence at certain moments during a play, but this does not mean that other actions should cease. Much attention is paid to tradition in the art form, and gestures, settings, music, and character types are determined by long held convention. This includes conventions of movement, which are used to signal particular actions to the audience. bY: nATHALIE R. MAGAT

One of the instruments is the Pipa.
An opera usually have a conductor,orchestra and performers that are used for the opera performance.The conductor controls the orchestra and the performers,the orchestra sings the libretto(songs for the opera),and the performers act and speak the words prepared.Without them there will be no librettos,songs,acts,words,endings people like the opera and more!
Philippine Zarzuela is just like Peking Opera.
Western Opera use higher formants of the face and use a "coated" sound, not a white sound. Opera singers sing with their back of their throats open... as far as I am hearing the Peking opera singers tend to sing through their nose and their sound is uncouted, it is flat, just like the sound of a baby crying.
