BUENOS AIRES, Argentina—Despite Election Day in Argentina, many people came to see the Shen Yun Performing Arts show at Auditorio Belgrano in Buenos Aires on Sunday evening, June 28.
At least half of the audience in the packed theater were of Chinese descent—people drawn to the show by Shen Yun’s renown for presenting China’s authentic, 5,000-year-old culture through classical Chinese dance and music.
Taken by the beauty and grace of the artists, the crowd clapped enthusiastically before dance numbers ended.
After the first song by vocalist Tian Ge, who sang “Who am I?”, the audience responded with loud whistles and called for an encore. Many “bravos” could be heard throughout the theater.
A trademark of the New York-based Shen Yun production is its story-based legends of heroism, modern-day tales of courage, and folklore traditions from China’s many regions, all perfectly synchronized with stunning 3-D backdrops of panoramic scenes and groundbreaking music of Western and Chinese composition.
Fine artist Ivonn attended the lavish performance with her friend Susana, and both were pleasantly surprised. “Very pretty, really, very pleasant, very entertaining too. Very good. Very, very good,” she said.
Ivonn said the dances were very joyful and showed the quality of the dancer’s performance to be of a high caliber.
Susana enjoyed the dramatizations: “It is very well done, all of it, the fabrics, everything. Fabulous! What I liked very much is the acting.”
