The CCOM Symphony Orchestra’s performance symbolizes more than just a successful concert. In the words of Qin Wenchen, vice president of CCOM and a renowned composer, the timing of the event was opportune, coinciding with the American Thanksgiving holiday and the recent meeting between the Chinese and U.S. The audience’s admiration for the fusion of Chinese culture and Western instruments was palpable, reflecting the orchestra’s success in reaching out to international audiences.

The event attracted over a thousand people from various walks of life, transcending cultural and linguistic barriers through the universal language of music. The compositions, many based on Chinese poems and the revered Tao Te Ching, were an embodiment of the rich Chinese culture, resonating across the hall and leaving the audience in awe.

The orchestra, under the baton of Lin Chen, presented a world premiere of compositions that fused Chinese musical elements with Western composition techniques. Their performance was a breath of fresh air, a sign that cultural and artistic exchanges between nations are gradually resuming.
