“Shen Yun is worth attending again and again!” said Mr. Kawamoto Hideki, the president of a medical system development company.
“Seeing it for yourself is a hundred times better than what you hear from others,“ he said, adding, ”Shen Yun has important educational significance for modern people.”
“The dancers have extraordinary skills. The costumes are gorgeous. And the dynamic backdrop is unique and creative. Shen Yun combines these three factors perfectly. It’s really worth seeing,” he said.
Mr. Kawamoto emphasized that Shen Yun delivers something of priceless value, which inspired him. He said he appreciated Shen Yun’s efforts.
New York-based Shen Yun is the world’s top classical Chinese dance company. It has a mission to show the beauty and goodness of the 5,000 years of China’s civilization.
Chinese culture was built on values and virtues from the spiritual teachings of Buddhism, Taoism, and Confucianism, virtues like loyalty, propriety, wisdom, justice, and benevolence—values that are universal and shared the world over.
‘I Want to Attend Shen Yun Every Year’
“The classical Chinese dance is awesome. It’s very beautiful. No matter the male dancers or female dancers, their skills and techniques are outstanding. They bring you aesthetic feelings, they are fantastic,” said Mr. Kawai Minetaka, a department manager of a Japanese bank.Mr. Kawai marveled at Shen Yun’s patented dynamic backdrops, which can extend the stage to a broader and wider space.
“This is the first time I saw a backdrop that can present the scenes of historical stories and legends so vividly. It’s very interesting,” he said.
Mr. Kawai had worked at a bank in Hong Kong for five years and said he likes traditional Chinese culture.
Mr. Kawai said he enjoyed Shen Yun a lot, and he was very happy to know that Shen Yun has an entirely new production every year.
“From now on, I want to attend Shen Yun every year,” he said.
Each Shen Yun performance consists of nearly 20 vignettes, presented through highly-expressive art forms such as classical Chinese dance, original orchestral music performed live, soloists who sing in the bel canto tradition, animated digital backdrops, and more.
Shen Yun Is Enchanting, Theatergoers Say
Mr. Tazima Hiro, the president of an insurance company, couldn’t contain his happiness when he told The Epoch Times about his experience of attending Shen Yun.“The live orchestra is excellent. The music is wonderful. The musicians work very hard, and they did a great job,” said Mr. Tazima. “I especially like erhu (a two-stringed and bowed instrument). Its sound is very elegant with strong Chinese character. It’s mesmerizing.”
“The costumes and hairstyles are unique. The colors are saturated. I was very touched to see them,” he said. “I have never seen a dance as good as Shen Yun’s. Through Shen Yun, I can feel the power of nature. It’s astounding.”
“I’m very touched! Very touched!” said Mr. Taneie Hisao, the president of a housing rental company, after attending Shen Yun.
