I was surprise to learn that this audio and video recordings of Mui Suet See’s solo performance become available again. It is such a delightful news for me personally since I was only getting to know and becoming interested in the art of Cantonese opera about a year ago. And undoubtedly, Lung Kim Sang 龍劍笙 and Mui Suet See 梅雪詩 are my most favorite Cantonese opera performers.

Produced in 2005, the collectible CD and DVD recordings set contains Cantonese opera performance excerpts from Dream of the Red Chamber [紅樓夢] Hung Lau Mung. Included are Burying Flowers 葬花 zong faa and Burning Poetry Manuscripts, Returning to Heaven 焚稿、歸天 fan gou、gwai tin.

While Burying Flowers gives a good introduction to the fragile heroine character of Lam Doi Juk 林黛玉, Burning Poetry Manuscripts, Returning to Heaven highlights the event in which Lam Doi Juk 林黛玉 dies on the day Gu Bou Juk 賈寶玉 is getting married.

Mui Suet See’s portrayal of the character of Lam Doi Juk is full of emotion. I’m impressed by her performance both vocally and acting-wise.

And that the accompanied bonus DVD footage of Dream of the Red Chamber’s Burning Poetry Manuscripts, Returning to Heaven [紅樓夢之焚稿、歸天] Hung Lau Mung zi Fan Gou、Gwai Tin from the annual TVB fund-raising program, "Tung Wah Charity Show 1995", helps to further enhance the listening and viewing experience, aiding to the understanding of the latter segment plot.~
