China Disabled People's Performing Art Troupe: Thousand Hand Dance

[@cococovers1333]

The dancers are deaf and the musicians are blind. One word: impressive

[@stacy_2036]

Right!

[@VietKieuDom]

All the performers are natural born deaf and mute , be proud of them people

[@gordonnicol9542]

I find it quite perplexing that, even although this has had 50 million views on KZbin, there is hardly a mention of the most beautiful music which accompanies this dance. I haven't seen the title of this piece anywhere and neither is there a single mention of the composer's name, the musicians or the absolutely gorgeous choir whose heavenly voices permeate the music. Can someone please reveal to us the composer, musicians and choir and let them be recognised and acknowledged for this fabulous piece of music ?

[@ane-elise.jc.]

Hey, Gordon! I'm very late in my answer but I found the song. It's called Tarian Seribu, by Bodhi Satva. Hope you will see it 😅

[@daniellincoln3744]

A wonderfully expressive dance incorporating the importance of disabled folks in the structures of society. I live in a part of the USA (NE DC) where Deaf & Hard of Hearing culture is strong because our National School is here

[@michaelchan6681]

The best performers of all Abilities. We have enjoyed them many times around the world and at many Lions Club events.

[@twinkleruby1718]

It's so beautiful. I originally came after reading a novel called I'm Really A Superstar, and it included this performance so I got curious and came to see. It really is amazing.

[@notpeach17]

Oh samee

[@taylorsu001]

If they have a next life, they must be fairies.

[@robertschlesinger1342]

Beyond amazing. Fantastic. Bravo China, leading the world through the 21st century and beyond.

[@omittapir5986]

Gods on earth dancing! Thousand hand Bodhisattva! 🙏🙏🙏.

[@wutermelonbubblegum]

One of the most beautiful things I've ever seen.

[@АняНинская]

The Best dance, hit, show, I have ever seen!

[@kawaiisenpaii612]

Beautiful ❤ And from the looks of audience up front, they're not clapping but waving (jazz hands) their hands to show their applause! 😊

[@1fortony]

Incredibly breathtaking

[@waynepalm7213]

They are great. It is a wonderful and fantastic performance.

[@1999gaming-h8u]

[@berenicesanchez6527]

With no more words: AMAZING!!!, WONDERFUL AND SO INSPIRATED. ES ESPECTACULAR!!!! Y SON SORDOMUDOS. ES UN ARTE Y UN DON.

[@kennedycenter]

It was probably an issue with the audience mic not picking up the applause.

[@lhengonzales2345]

no words, but, #AMAZING!😃

[@schi390]

[@millertang8963]

[@Beautywithdog]

[@riceballgurl]

[@Ebizzill]

[@mohan8503]

Miraculous dance performance. ❤

[@algung2522]

They are productive members of CHINESE society under the leadership of

[@VeeMusicLover]

that was soo pretty

[@jamesblunt3886]

mercy of god will help us with thousands of hands

[@prajaram1918]

It's same dance and steps continued for over two decades... But still it is good and talented

[@TheLastOilMan]

Gorgeous go see it done to DAN’s Buddistva

[@bima7214]

Imagine there is 1 buddha and there is a thousand hands all over her body but each hands has real eyes

[@BananaCologne]

A prime example of how NOT to film the Thousand Hand Bodhisattva. There are far better example than this. The way this is filmed defeats the hard work of the troupe and the purpose of the piece. Such a shame.

[@gixellia8455]

Xibalba N7 ... please explain why?

[@rainopdewilde509]

Well its supposed to be recorded head on so it will really look like one lady with lots of hands. Not a line of people

[@irislaboy4026]

I totally agree. It was not focus the right way.

[@joelgustafsson4504]

Note, deaf is not disables peoples. Just loss of hearing, that’s all! We’re just normal peoples!

[@21sashalee]

Being deaf is considered a disability because it means you're literally missing an ability and there is nothing wrong with that, of course they're normal people!! This is coming from someone with a deaf parent, I'm really sorry if you're offended by it I'm just so confused about your statement.

[@cherylberenice169]

This is shameful.. they should film this from just 100% front angle...

[@exagearexagear9587]

😮👏👏👏 Wow good

[@Churlabunnies30]

❤️❤️❤️

[@ciaran7780]

Clap clap

[@danieltambz2831]

woo smezing

[@marastegard2661]

It starts at 2:34

[@libby4419]

Qmm

[@吃面忘了要馍]

有密集恐惧症的还真有点受不了z😄👍

[@minghan05]

Why is there no applause? Are the audience blind?

[@brionzhang3697]

maybe the audience did not understand the culture of Buddha.

[@laurene3243]

Ming Han the performers are deaf, the audience uses sign language to applause

[@cindydoan5475]

The audio couldn't pick up the applause over the performers' track, i think.

[@MusicalSawMen]

Hey go wash those hands !

[@emeraldc177]

You're joking, right?

[@JorgeAlianz40]

Why are they disabled?

[@berenicesanchez6527]

THEY ARE DEAF AND MUTE, SO THEY HAVE ART IN THEIR BRAINS AND EYES!!!

[@ryoreina]

Probably naturally born disabled.

[@clivehandforth3531]

For fun

[@gabrielalebron9484]

the dancers are mute, and the people who play the instruments are blind. It makes learning all of these dances (specifically this one) much much more difficult to learn, its amazing
