The event invited five experts to place professional comments on each choir’s performance. A series of classic or traditional songs were selected as the compulsory performing content in order to protect and pass on traditional Chinese culture, as well as to emphasize the characteristic of ethnic chorus. All choirs presented their professional skills, and sang their love, dreams, and wishes into listeners’ hearts. The singing sound of these young people became a bridge for communication, let different cultures come across and weave an even more harmonious melody.
