Recently,Ma Xiaohui,a famous Chinese erhu (perform) and composer with the Shanghai Chinese Orchestra, held erhu concert with the theme of"Erhu Holding Hands with the World, New Music Trend, New Cultural Tour" in the Delegates' Room at the UN headquarters in New York City.
Attendees from different backgrounds and participants in the World Madam Global Awards Ceremony were (deep) moved by the unique charm of traditional Chinese musical instruments(display) during the concert.
The concert began the song "Woman Flower". In the first movement,"Seven Colors of Erhu,Walking with Beauty, Colorful Silk Road," melodies from Chinese and Western songs created an "ink painting" of the Silk Road.
In the next three (movement), a classical repertoire(曲目)including"Butterfly Lovers", "Thoughts on a Silent Night" "The Spirit of My Erhu" attracted the audience. Next (come) the theme song from the movie "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", beautifully celebrated the classic dialogue between erhu and cello(大提琴).
"This beautiful and (inspire) concert wonderfully mixed classical,Chinese,and cross-cultural themes. It was a feast for the ears and souls," multimedia artist Ranjit Bhatnagar said.
