During these special shows performers from Shanghai will demonstrate ancient arts that delight today’s modern audiences. From the Shanghai Peking Opera Troupe artists Liu Tao and Lu Lin will showcase their respective roles as the Marshal and female warrior in what is traditionally known as the Beijing Opera.

Also making appearances are Suo Na player Mi Songjie and Erhu player Deng Yuemei from the Shanghai Chinese Orchestra. Suo Na is a Han Chinese shawm (oboe). It has a distinctively loud and high-pitched sound, and is used frequently in Chinese traditional music ensembles, particularly those that perform outdoors. Erhu is a two-stringed bowed musical instrument, and is sometimes known in the Western world as the “Chinese violin”. It is used as a solo instrument in small ensembles and large orchestras. A very versatile instrument, Erhu is used in both traditional and contemporary music arrangements, such as in pop, rock, jazz, etc.

In 2009 the Chinese Acrobatic Association called New Shanghai Circus CEO & President Mr Lizhi Zhao a leader in creating Cultural Exchange between China and the United States and proclaimed the New Shanghai Theatre & Circus an International Cultural Exchange Foundation. At that time the Taney County Commission issued a proclamation congratulating the Acrobats of China featuring the New Shanghai Circus for its success in Branson, Missouri as well as its contributions to the community.

Founded in 1952, the Shanghai Chinese Orchestra (SHCO) is the first big-scale modern Chinese orchestra in China. SHCO is famous for the harmonious cooperation among its members and their excellent mastering of all kinds of works. SHCO plays an important role in the development of Chinese music. Located in Shanghai, its performance format and repertoire include big-scale Chinese orchestral works as well as mid-scale and small-scale traditional characteristic ones, such as stringed and wind instrumental pieces, Cantonese music, plucked-strings instrumental ensemble, percussion instrumental ensembles and so on. SHCO is also actively engaged in composition, which contributes to a rich repertoire of the orchestra. Among those compositions, many have been awarded in Shanghai Spring International Music Festival and Shanghai International Art Festival, and are also widely performed at home and abroad. SHCO itself has performed in more than 80 cities in China and also toured to more than 30 countries and regions in the world. SHCO was hailed as ‘the most beautiful Chinese Orchestra’. The Orchestra often performs for the presidents and leaders of other countries when they visit China. In 2001 and 2003, SHCO performed at two major Chinese New Year concerts, The Year of Snake New Year Concert and The Year of Goat New Year Concert at the Golden Concert Hall in Vienna, which was a big hit in Europe. SHCO is frequently invited to perform at important events at home and abroad, such as the 2006 Shanghai Cooperation Organization summit, the ASEAN summit, the 2007 Special Olympic Games, the 2008 and 2010 Shanghai National Day Concert, the 2010 Shanghai EXPO Week, etc.
