Two great civilizations create one enchanting musical experience when Shen Yun takes the stage. Original compositions feature Western strings, percussion, woodwinds, and brass that accentuate the sound of ancient Chinese instruments. Never before have the exquisite beauty of Chinese melodies and the grandeur of a Western symphony been so brilliantly wedded.
This year’s repertoire offers a rich, uplifting experience that features Shen Yun’s celebrated original compositions, as well as timeless classics by Dvořák, Suppé, and Tchaikovsky.

►2017 PROGRAM HIGHLIGHTS

SHEN YUN ORIGINAL WORKS

Descent from Heaven – A Renewal:
From a golden celestial paradise, deities descend to the Earth, incarnating into the grand imperial court of China’s Han Dynasty.

The Great Khan:
A grand and dynamic piece befitting one of history’s most powerful emperors.

Tibetan Drums:
Sonorous calls of prayer horns roll down from majestic Himalayan peaks, then the melody quickly evolves into a buoyant celebration.

A Passage in Time:
A fairy tale with a touch of romance about a young man’s sojourn in a Taoist abode.

WESTERN CLASSICS

Tchaikovsky - Violin Concerto, Op. 35, 3rd Movement
A triumph of the unlikely, this concerto overcame the sting of initial rejection by critics to become a beloved work lauded for its lyrical virtuosity.

Suppé - Light Cavalry Overture
This overture has enjoyed a career well beyond the operetta it was originally set for, with its main theme having been excerpted widely.

Dvořák - Slavonic Dance No. 7, Op. 72
Inspired by Brahms’s Hungarian Dances, this work embodies the cultural vitality of the southern Slavic region.
