Chinese New Year Splendor - NTDTV Presents, By Divine Performing Arts

Phoenix Shows: Divine Performing Arts 2009 World Tour (From Mar 27-28, 2009) (1:39)


Profound. Sublime. Inspiring. That was the unequivocal response to last year's show. NTDTV's Chinese New Year Splendor is the most inspiring celebration of traditional Chinese culture as it was meant to be — a study in grace, fluidity, balance, and inner strength. A program of nearly twenty masterful dances and songs brings Asia's celebrated past to life on stage. The vigorous drums of the 7th century Tang court will quicken your pulse, while the pastoral charm of inner Mongolian dance will delight your soul. Dozens of brilliant performers, coupled with an innovative full orchestra. Part of a 20 country world tour.

Divine Performing Arts is a unique group of leading artists who share in a vision of cultural renewal. The company is a triumph of collaboration, bringing together over a hundred of the world's foremost classically trained Chinese dancers, choreographers, musicians, and vocalists. It also boasts the world's only full orchestra that embraces both Western and Chinese instruments as its permanent members.

Based in New York, Divine Performing Arts is distinguished by its conscious effort to remain independent of China's communist regime, which has abused and impoverished the arts for decades. It is proud to thus include members who practice Falun Gong. The company aspires to create original performances that not only entertain, but also more deeply educate, enrich, and inspire. The company's rich repertory is drawn from the pages of history, universal themes, and the world around us. All choreography and music performed are original.

che_xura06602

I’ve seen some shows with Chinese performances, but never with this size, with this explosion of movement and colour. It’s enthusiasm, and especially there’s a real ensemble, the movements are so well planned and so well-performed, the dancers are like one, there are so many on the scene, but they go in one movement and one posture, it’s fantastic.

Happy Chinese New Year♥~谢谢你们~ ♥

I’m a Chinese American who appreciates & supports Chinese culture. I bought pricey tickets for the January 2009 NYC show as a New Year present for my parents, believing the marketing “The most magnificent Chinese New Year celebration in the world!” BOY, WAS IT NOT! This show has talented dancers but the very strong FA LUN GONG message; prevalent thru-out the MANY monotonous dances, and songs is unavoidable. It showcased dances with negative images, full with black, dark figures representing the evil & oppressed. Images of the dying, the dead and the jailed...It isn’t what a Chinese expects at a Lunar New Year celebration. This message send many folks to walk-out midst of show because it’s such an inauspicious way to welcome the New Year. I also purchased these tickets online after a friend told me that my purchase would benefit his child’s school. Anyhow, the online option gave the worst seats for the most cost—yet when you’re in the theater, BLOCKS of seats were left empty for the entire show--seats that were not available online. What a scam! I’m not commenting on the FA LUN GONG here, what was unsatisfactory was I had no idea the religious theme of this show. The official site doesn’t offer clues to help you make an informed choice. If this is your kind of thing, then, you’ll probably think it’s “The most magnificent Chinese New Year celebration” BUT, for me, it’s a downer. BE WARNED! Make a sound choice. At the end of the show, show reporters interviewed non-Asian patrons for their opinions and I heard compliments on costumes and dances—all are nice... if you’ve never seen such before and don’t understand chinese culture. This show DOESN’T represent the BEST of my culture. My kid asked why we didn’t watch this on Chinese TV--which aired a 4 hour celebration with more pizazz and it’s FREE. Oh, did I mention the electronic backdrop that makes you feel like you were in a video game coupled with the traditional dances? Quite cheesy.
