Outdoor concert celebrates long friendship between China, Brazil
The concert also featured musicians from Brazil playing Chinese songs and Brazilian folk songs.
The concert, co-initiated by China Federation of Literary and Art Circles and co-organized by Chinese Musicians' Association and Brazil China Friendship Association, invited veteran conductor Chen Bing as well as the winners and judges of the Chinese Golden Bell Award for Music — a top Chinese music award — to join in the performances.
The event was part of 2024 "China Today" Arts Week, which was first launched in 2004 by China Federation of Literary and Art Circles. During the past two decades, the art festival has toured around the world by visiting 23 countries and regions. This has been the first time that it came to Brazil. This year, the 2024 "Today China" Arts Week will also make its debut in Colombia. Cultural exchange programs such as film festival, concerts and photo exhibitions, will be held.
