As an Indigenous American…this is truly SPECIAL and STUNNING. It evokes an amazing sense of traditional identity. Thank you for sharing this BEAUTIFUL CHINESE DANCERS. I must admit this is WHY I’m hooked on Chinese Historical Dramas. Many of the traditional mythical stories are like my own Tribes. 🤍🇺🇸

Hello China and all Chinese people, a big thank you to all of you for this gift you have made for humanity. I have no word in my mother tongue, French, to describe this artistic masterpiece. All the feelings and effects that flood my body, I'm hypnotized, the days of the Lunar New Year watching the live, and still a year later. I can watch it over and over without getting tired of it. In 34 years of existence it is the most beautiful living work of art I have seen in my life, I take the time to leave for the first time in my life a comment on youtube. Here we have a masterpiece of Chinese culture, a piece of art. Out of all the live performances during the Spring Festival (Chinese Lunar New Year) gala show, which I have watched for 6 years, this is definitely the most beautiful performance. In particular, I saw masterpieces on site in China, among the most impressive: two "Tang Dynasty" performances in Xī'ān 西安, Shǎnxī 陕西 province, or a show by 张艺谋 Zhāng Yìmóu on West Lake (西湖 Xīhú) in 杭州 Hángzhōu province of 浙江 Zhèjiāng , also a performance of 杨丽萍 Yánglí Píng in 昆明 Kūnmíng 云南 Yúnnán province which had marked me. But among all these shows, the 2022 Spring Festival is impressive, it stands out. As someone else here said, it's both simple and complex, it's both ancient and modern. It is a very complex mixture and a fusion between history dance music painting calligraphy poetry philosophy. The artistic team manages to bring to life the painting by 王希孟 Wáng Xīmèng entitled 千里江山圖 Qiānlǐ jiāngshān tú (A Thousand Li of Rivers and Mountains). Li = ancient Chinese unit for measuring distance. This artist was born during the Sòng dynasty 宋朝 Sòng cháo (960-1279) under the reign of the great Emperor 宋徽宗 Sòng huīzōng. Both had a very sad life during a turbulent period in Chinese history. 王希孟 Wáng Xīmèng produced his only work of art at the age of 18, in 1113, a 12 meter long, brightly colored silk painting (very expensive for the time). The CHINESE painting style is 山水 shān shuǐ, landscapes are painted on silk (this technique was invented in China since the 5th century, Japan did not exist, "japan fans"please do not talk nonsense .This painting can be seen in 北京 Běijīng at 故宫博物院 Gùgōng Bówùyùan, one of the greatest artist of China then died prematurely at the age of 23. This painting almost disappeared forever several times, notably during the Jurchen invasions 女真 Nǚzhēn (Wars between the Jin and Song dynasties ), and also during the Second Sino-Japanese War, the painting was lost circulating in flea markets, after the chaos that the Japanese had created in China since 1894 (First Sino-Japanese War). During Qīng dynasty 大清 the painting belonged to the personal collection of Manchu Emperor 乾隆帝 Qiánlóng (1711 - 1799). Taoism is true, the barbarians of the north have become fine amateurs of painting on silk? For information the Manchus are the descendants of the Jurchens mentioned above. Emperor 宋徽宗 Sòng huīzōng saw the potential of 王希孟 Wáng Xīmèng and took him personally as a student. Emperor 宋徽宗 Sòng huīzōng had a sad but fascinating story, he is one of the greatest Chinese artists, he loved all the arts more than anything else: music, painting, calligraphy, poetry, ceramics, etc. He could spend days watching birds and paint them. As you can guess politics and war were not his passions, so he was the last Emperor of the Sòng 宋 dynasty, the Jurchen 女真 Nǚzhēn one day captured his capital and eventually deported him and his entire court : children and all his concubines in Manchuria , in the great Siberian cold of of the 黑龙江 Hēilóngjiāng province , it is well written by Chinese historians that his end life was miserable and he died a broken man. The traditional Chinese musical instrument that stands out is the gǔzhēng 古筝, an instrument that dates from the Warring States Period 战国时代 Zhànguó Shídài (475-221 BCE). The touch of modernity is brought by a classical European instrument: the violins. The hairstyles as well as the traditional clothes are 唐福 Táng fú (or 汉服 Hànfú dating from the 唐 Táng dynasty 618 - 907 AD). I give you my little opinion: you have to see Chinese civilization as a continuity, there is no beginning (birth) nor end (death). This binary vision is very Western and Christian. The concept of copy/copying does not exist in China, it must be understood that for millennia copying imitating the greatest artists / paintings / calligraphers / poets is a must, and that there is no harm in copying . This artistic masterpiece in 2022 is therefore a living continuation and refinement of the work of 王希孟 Wáng Xīmèng produced in 1113: we see the painting appear as it goes along as well as scroll. Try to display the painting on your computer you will not be able to visualize it you will have to zoom and drag it because it is so big. The sensual dancers to the rhythm of the gǔzhēng 古筝 are gradually incorporated into the painting as if it had been painted like mountains and rivers. This complex work of art dating from the year 2022 is a tribute to the ancient Chinese civilization: we can travel in time from the Warring States 战国时代 Zhànguó Shídài to present-day China (People's Republic of China) via the 唐 Táng and 宋 Sòng dynasties. The homage to the ancestors, which has always been so important in this country, the cradle of Confucianism 儒家 Rújiā, is paid. Confucius 孔子 Kǒng Zǐ would be proud of the long road traveled and the continuity of the middle empire 中国 Zhōngguó. A big congratulations to the Chinese civilization: I think that the Chinese of today as of yesterday and in particular the first author 王希孟 Wáng Xīmèng and the Emperors 唐高祖 Táng Gāozǔ, 唐太宗 Táng Tàizōng , and thoses who was able to touched this silk scroll 宋徽宗 Sòng huīzōng ,乾隆帝 Qiánlóng , all have tears in eyes seeing this performance and the long journey made. Thanks from France. love you . 中国女婿

@@wwjesse Hi Jesse, under Dono’s comments on both this video and the other one posted by 东方演艺集团, I saw one Chinese jumped up to pick one unintentional inaccuracy out of his a thousand words of praise and introduction. That’s not very nice and that’s why sometimes Chinese are considered rude by foreigners. Using ‘Please’ upfront is actually a bit abrupt in English - it’s like an order. Try to be nice and look at people’s a million kindness before you point your finger to one inaccuracy. Say 3 stars before you express 1 wish.

You are right,this dance is based on the painting named " thousands of miles of rivers and mountains" from Song Dynasty. Now collected in the Palace Museum
Love the fluidity of the dancers, the reflections and their expressions. The costumes and video editing are brilliant too! I also love the way the group of dancers fade away and blend in behind a translucent curtain, as they become one with what appears to be a mountain, while the principal dancer creates the illusion that she is walking /floating on a lake, aided by clever lighting. A Chinese friend explained to me afterwards, that the dancers are acting out a painting. That's the magic!

这是对中华文明拟人化的表达,表象是动静相宜、刚柔相济,本质是风华绝代、高贵并内敛。 This is an anthropomorphic expression of Chinese civilization. The appearance is a harmony of movement and stillness, and the combination of delication and hardness. The essence is magnificent, noble and restrained.
