Graphic Designer: The Divine Performing Arts reveal the spirit of different dynasties

Earlier that same day, Mr. Corben received a flyer introducing the show. He then went straight to the Adelaide Festival Theater. He said, "In fact, I came to the show because I saw a lady introducing it in the Central Market this morning. That made me decide to come and see it."

From a graphics design perspective, Mr. Corben felt that this was a high level show. "The costumes, the dances, and the drums were very attractive. The design of the backdrop was especially amazing. The design backdrops were very vivid and I really enjoyed them. It was wonderful and excellent."

Mr. Corben said he did not have much prior knowledge of Chinese culture. However, he was totally enthralled by the show's combination of culture, music, and dance. He said, "I really liked the female vocalist. She was excellent. The pianist's performance was also very good. I was very glad to see that she was using the famous Rubinstein method to play the music. It's attractive. I really enjoyed watching the show. It was very fresh for me."

He continued, "This was a high class performance. There were many new things for me to slowly absorb from the show." Mr. Corben said with confidence, " I believe they will be famous throughout the whole world--even at the North Pole, if they ever go there--because I think they are really great."

Architectural designer John Mazzarolo

John Mazzarolo had never before seen a Divine Performing Arts show. He said he especially liked "Drummers of the Tang Court" and "Nymphs of the Sea." He thought these two programs were very different and very creative. "They were very gentle and made people relax," he said. "I can only say that it was like being in a dream, because sometimes we are taken to another place in our dreams. The backdrop used animation techniques, which have movie effects. I have never seen this before. It looked like a still picture but had a three-dimensional effect. It was very interesting."

Maria Mazzarolo went to the show with John. She said she had never seen such a large scale show. She said, "I like ballet, but I feel that today's show exceeds the level of ballet in some respects. The programs in the show are more gentle, soft, and slow. It's marvelous. I liked it a lot. I felt more relaxed than ever before. The music and the dance movements were beautiful, very beautiful."

Mr. Antonio, a local artistic appraisal businessman in Australia, came the show with his wife. They said afterward that the show expressed genuineness, kindness, and noble moral ideals. Slava Antonio and her husband, Tony Antonio, both shared their feelings about the show.

Mr. Antonio liked the dance "Lightness and Grace" as well the soprano singer the most. He said, "The fan dance was very beautiful. The drum dance was also very good. It was spectacular!" Ms. Antonio continued, "The costumes were very eye-catching and dazzling. The entire effect was excellent. It was very beautiful. The sound was stirring. It would be great if we could understand Chinese."

Mr. Antonio really appreciated the message that the Divine Performing Arts delivered, which expressed noble moral thought. "It is very good. It used a very vigorous language to express noble moral thought, which is truth and kindness. It was very good and very beautiful."

The couple said they decided to come to the show right after they saw a commercial for it on TV. "We saw the commercial on TV. Just as we were about to book the tickets, we saw the introduction for it at the India and China Festival."

Mr. and Mrs. Antonio found insight into traditional Chinese culture in the show. They said, "Chinese culture has had a powerful influence, which can be traced back several thousand years. The Divine Performing Arts lets us see Chinese culture through dance and artistic performances. That was very good."
