It would present the two modern works well received at the Carnegie Hall, the cello concerto of Zhao Jiping Dream of Zhuang Zhou and the instrumental ensemble of Guo Wenjing Local Customs of Western Yunnan. Meanwhile, the concert would be more splendid, as it was attended by world famous cellist Wang Jian, and “Chinese nightingale” Wu Bixia who integrated Chinese and western ways of singing.

Since the One Hundred Concerts of Chinese Folk Music activity was inaugurated on October 2, nine famous Chinese orchestras from the Chinese mainland, Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, had showed up at the National Grand Theatre to present 10 concerts of traditional Chinese music of great elegance and diversified features. They included Chinese National Orchestra, Guangdong National Orchestra, Taipei Chinese Orchestra, and Macao Chinese Orchestra.

During the period, Li Xiangting, Song Fei and Dai Ya, who were the best performers of traditional Chinese music, appeared before the audiences, enabling them to appreciate so many masterpieces in a short span of three months. This time, Yan Huichang and Hong Kong Chinese Orchestra would surely add brilliance to the 100-concert activity. They would fully display the comprehensive and diversified nature of the grand event and showcase the high standards and tastes of contemporary Chinese folk music.
