At the age of 32, he had to learn with teenage students every day, starting from the most basic training of the legs and waist (腰). At that time, he was mostly troubled by the dialogue in Beijing Opera. To him, it was the biggest problem. But he tried his best to practice it. Four years later, he began to learn to perform the Monkey King. He usually arrived at the workroom an hour earlier than the other performers and he also bought books and CDs to understand the character better. Finally, he won a top international prize for performing the Monkey King.
To help more people enjoy Beijing Opera, Ghaffar often teaches the traditional art form in schools in the United States, Britain and other countries.

Is AI bad for new music
The world’s oldest known musical instruments are more than 40, 000 years old. For tens of thousands of years, humans have been making music for pleasure and to express themselves. Recently, there has been a rise in the use of artificial intelligence (AI) to create music. Some AI music has become so popular online. The technology has been used by lots of musicians. Some people think that using AI to produce music isn’t creative enough because it just makes songs out of old music. What do you think Is AI bad for new music
Yes—AI music is not creative, says Peter
Using AI might be cheaper than paying a musician. If companies can use AI to produce popular music that makes lots of money from people buying and listening to it, it could put musicians like me out of work. If musicians can’t earn money from music, there will be far fewer of them creating new songs. Anyway, listening to music that was made by a computer isn’t the same experience as listening to human-made music.
When I create songs, I put different feelings and real experiences into my work, creating songs that connect with people at a deep level. Songs produced by AI aren’t original because the computer just makes music from the old one. AI music isn’t completely creative.
No—AI can produce new ideas, says Mary
I’m a music lover. When I turn on my radio or headphones and a great new song comes on, it makes me feel good. Wonderful music brings people together to sing and dance. If people are enjoying music, does it matter whether it was made by a human or a machine
I think music makers can use computers, which help to perfect sound and mix different layers of a song. For them, AI is just another new technology, a tool that they can use to express ideas. It won’t replace musicians but they can work with it. Building on AI music could save them time. It could allow much more music to be produced and it could lead to new and special styles of music. AI could create exciting music that humans could never have dreamed of.
WHAT DO YOU THINK
Now that you’ve read a bit more about it, tell us what you think at the week- junior. co. uk. We’ll publish the result next week.

Music
I like music very much. It gives me energy when I’m tired and it makes me happy when I’m sad. Music is very important in our life. If there is no music, our life won’t be so interesting.
Different people like different kinds of music. I like electronic music because it is loud. It makes me excited. I also like music that I can dance to. The Cool Kids is my favorite band. I can’t stand music that is quiet and slow. It makes me sleepy. I always listen to music when I feel tired. It can make me feel relaxed.
In a word, music is the universal language that speaks to the soul of humanity. I hope everyone can enjoy music.
