Selected Peking Opera arias of Mei School by Wei Haimin

Wei Haimin is a famous Peking Opera actress playing female lead roles. Since childhood, she has trained in Taiwan. In 1991, she came to Beijing and became the first disciple of Mei Baojiu - an inheritor of the Mei School of Peking Opera. This officially kicked off Mei School inheritance in the contemporary era.

In April 2016, Mei Baojiu passed away, so Wei decided to stage a concert with the theme of Beside the Plum: Nine Odes to commemorate her teacher.

Mei Baojiu used to serve as president of the Mei Lanfang Peking Opera Troupe.
