Music

The Guangdong, Chaozhou/Shantou and Hakka cultures have exerted reciprocal influence on the local community. Chaozhou music and Han music, two musical genres associated with the ethnic groups, have been inscribed onto the first National List of Intangible Cultural Heritage of China. More recently, Chaozhou music has been selected as one of the items on the first List of Intangible Cultural Heritage of Hong Kong in 2014. The School Culture Day will feature traditional tunes in the genres of Chaozhou music and Han music, while their close connection to Guangdong music – another musical genre, which is related to the culture of the Cantonese-speaking community – will also be revealed.
