RE: Chinese Culture Project - Promoting Chinese poetry on Steemit 《樂筆詩塾》 - Steemit首個中國詩歌推廣計劃
What a wonderful idea! I look forward to seeing the poems you choose. Could you please add a high quality MP3 or video for each poem recited in Cantonese? They sound so much better than in Mandarin, where some of the rhymes are lost.
Spreaker offers free accounts for podcasts, and I don't think it's blocked in China (better than YouTube). Vimeo.com is another possibility for video.
PS: there is a small error above: "Suchian Province" should be "Sichuan Province"
As you correctly say, there are less tones in Mandarin so the rhythm may differ for the two. Therefore the plan is to compose two pieces of music, one for Cantonese and another for Mandarin. I think the songs will just be in MP3 format at this stage so hopefully the quality will be good enough, but we'll definitely check out the site you suggested. Thanks for you support!
