The Chinese word 演唱会 (yǎnchànghuì) is a compound of two characters: 演唱 (yǎnchàng) and 会 (huì). 演唱 means "to sing and perform", and 会 means "meeting" or "gathering". So 演唱会 literally means "a gathering for singing and performing".The word 演唱会 first appeared in the late Qing Dynasty. At that time, Western music and operas were introduced to China, and people began to hold concerts to perform these new forms of music. The word 演唱会 was used to describe these concerts.Today, 演唱会 is still used to refer to concerts, but it can also be used to refer to other types of live performances, such as plays, musicals, and dance performances.
