Tradition within Tradition - Chinese Ethnic Minorities and Traditional Arts
The Spirit of the Great Wall is a cross-cultural fusion project set against the backdrop of one of China's most iconic symbols, the Great Wall. It takes widely known stories that happened in and around the Great Wall as its main narrative thread, using music with distinct Chinese characteristics as the artistic foundation.
The show features a variety of performance forms unique to China, including dance, traditional folk opera, acrobatics, and martial arts. These performances not only highlight the profound skills of the artists but also vividly demonstrate the fusion and innovation of Chinese culture, highlighting the traditional arts of Chinese ethnic minorities.
This show is supported by the National Art Fund.
It was rated as an "Outstanding Export Cultural Service Project" - National Ministry of Culture, 2007
