An artistic month in Shanghai
CHINA Shanghai International Arts Festival opened yesterday, showing original or fusion arts over the course of a month.
A Chinese rendition of Austrian composer Gustav Mahler’s “Six Symphony” will make its debut at the event.
Director Chen Xinyi remoulded the classic Western music into a drama depicting the Long March.
“It is not a clumsy pairing. The symphony fits the theme quite well,” said Yu Rongjun, who scripted the drama. He said skillful use of Western music to explain China’s revolutionary history bridged cultures.
“It sets the ground for deep cross-cultural dialogue on humanity,” Yu said.
Among the 50 pieces of works are those from music masters like Tchaikovsky and Shostakovich, ballet “A Midsummer Night’s Dream,” and a popular Chinese play “Fayuan Temple.”
