"Ballads of Ink from Canton" is a series of four traditional Cantonese narrative song performances inspired by the exhibition Artistic Confluence in Guangdong: Selected Painting and Calligraphy from Ming to Mid-Qing China (Phase II: Qing Dynasty). Jointly presented by Dr. Peggy Ho (Research Associate, Art Museum, CUHK and curator of Artistic Confluence) and The Gong Strikes One, the performances invite viewers to travel back in time and enjoy Guangdong's century of arts and culture with a visual and aural feast full of Guangdong flavors.
