CLOSE YOUR EYES and let the melodies of a lost civilization carry you away. The rippling notes of the pipa transport you to an imperial banquet, where maidens dance under a silvery moon. In a sudden shift, powerful drumbeats conjure an ancient battlefield where the valor of heroes shines through. This is a concert that breathes life into precious stories and even melodies from the distant past.
Nowhere else can you hear classical Chinese instruments—such as the two-stringed erhu and the piquant pipa—so pleasantly melded with Western strings, woodwinds, and brass. Shen Yun’s approach, from the composition to the expression of the music, results in a vivid sound with great emotional range—perfect for musical storytelling.
It’s really out of this world! If I had to describe it, the words might be ‘divine’, ‘reborn’, and ‘hope’”
Christine Walevska, master cellist
“The sound is beautiful, overwhelming! This melody is from heaven above.”
Steward F. Lan, Six-time Tony Award-winning producer
“It’s grasping, it’s magnetic, beautiful music… the musicians are superlative. “
Philipp Mann, conductor, Arkansas Symphony Orchestra
