Shen Yun’s digital-backdrop team creates vividly animated settings, extending the stage and transporting the audience to a world where heaven and earth are one, states the website.
Dr. Chavan was also impressed by the professionalism of the artists and the long hours of hard work that it must have required to produce the show.
The Shen Yun Orchestra with its combination of classical Western and Chinese instruments often surprises audience members, not expecting to see a full orchestra on tour.
“I thought it was recorded, but I was surprised to see that they were right down there performing,” she said.
The ability to seamlessly blend the two sounds of East and West to create one fresh harmonious sound is what makes the Shen Yun Performing Arts Orchestra unique, according to the website.
Dr. Chavan concluded that she felt exhilarated, inspired with a spiritual feeling, a combination of the three and she would absolutely recommend it to her friends and colleagues to see something “that is so unique.”
