There is a cabaret performed on the Yangtze River Cruise. The background music is Jay Chou’s Ju Hua Tai (Chrysanthemum Terrace). Jay Chou is a very popular pop music singer in Taiwan. In 2006, he performed in Zhang Yimou’s drama film ‘Curse of the Golden Flower’. Also, he recorded ‘Chrysanthemum Terrace’ to accompany the film.
Ju Hua Tai is a typical pop song. Jay Chou adds both Chinese and Western elements into this song. Cello, cucurbit flute, Chinese zither, guitar and other eastern and western instruments are used to create this melody. The lyrics are full of sorrow and sadness. Can you feel it while enjoying the cabaret and music?
