On Friday, the 11th China Classical Dance Competition of the New Tang Dynasty
was held at the New York Performing Arts Center in Shugelove, U.S.
for the first round of the Youth Group.
The result was that 45 participants from the Youth Group advanced to the next round.
All the Chinese classical dancers from all over the world gathered
to perform Chinese dance for the first time in 5,000 years.
Let's see the report of our reporter.
The Youth Group competition on Friday was held in Shizhong.
From the famous Su Dongpo,
to the famous Sato Choran,
to the famous Nansong Yue Fei,
and to the modern cultivators who stick to their beliefs.
The participants performed historical figures,
classic folk dances,
and let their talents shine on the stage
to convey the traditional Chinese values such as humanity, reason, and integrity.
The birth of Chinese culture is a characteristic of a nation.
Every nation has its own culture, history, and foundation.
As a nation, it naturally brings something.
More than that, it definitely brings something.
I want to break through my blind spot,
and take a step closer to art,
and at the same time bring good information to the audience.
Hundreds of participants from Europe, America, and Asia
came together to compete,
and learn from each other.
Every competition is a good way to improve myself,
and to be able to compete with other participants.
I think it's a good experience and experience
The third-time participant,
Huang Minghui,
won a silver medal in the last competition.
This year, she tried to use props
to break through the emotional plot of previous years,
and pay more attention to the character design.
I think this play is a big challenge for me.
It has a lot of performances,
and the position of the props,
and the cooperation between the characters and the props
are all very challenging.
In order to better understand the actions and mood of the ancients,
she likes to refer to classical literature.
The four pillars of Chinese literature
are very detailed in the design of the characters.
Whether it's the male Yang Gang,
or the female Ying Rou,
they are all very detailed in their writing.
From this, I can learn
how the girls in ancient times
would blush when they were shy.
I can also learn from this.
The young contestant, Huang Lingjie,
brought the play Menghua Road.
She learned from ancient Chinese literature,
and used the dance steps of Xinyu Liushui
to create the bustling scenery of the Northern Song Dynasty.
It's a bit like the feeling of crossing the river,
and the scene of the ancient Song Dynasty.
Actually, for me,
I can have a special experience.
Because I'm from Taiwan,
and there are many night markets in Taiwan.
So when I dance,
I feel special, and it's very exciting.
Huang Lingjie joined Shen Yun Art Troupe in 2009.
She is a main dancer.
She has participated in many times
of the Chinese classical dance competition
and has won many awards.
Her experience in the competition
gave her a deeper understanding of Yi Wu Zhi Jing.
It takes a long time
to learn the techniques of Shen Yun
step by step.
In the end,
it can be naturally reflected on the stage
and shown to the audience.
This is also a test.
The second and final competition
will be open to the public.
The tickets for Sunday are sold out.
The tickets for Saturday are still on sale.
Don't miss this event.
