Composed by the boundary-breaking composer Tan Dun, "Ghost Opera" combines European traditions with Chinese shadow puppet theater, visual art, folk music, and East Asian shamanic ritual. This performance appeared at The Toby, at the Indianapolis Museum of Art.</p> http://artbabble.org/video/ima/virtuosos-visions-featuring-tan-duns-ghost-opera#comments folk music Ghost Opera Live Performance Music Performance Art puppet theater Tan Dun Virtuosos & Visions visual art Events Indianapolis Museum of Art http://artbabble.org/sites/default/files/bvideos/1a/1a2658cc6184b99a/poster-image-08.jpg 1a2658cc6184b99a Mon, 23 Mar 2009 21:47:41 +0000 ddark 1734 at http://artbabble.org
