“It's absolutely stunning. The choreography. The costumes are beautiful. The orchestra is really a wonderful job. It's just inspiring. Really is to see all that. Seeing the story is told in such a beautiful way is inspiring,” said Mr. Heywood, a choral conductor, music educator, and music director.
“Orchestrally fantastic. It's a really beautiful sound from the orchestra,” Mr. Heywood said.
“A lovely singer, that's a beautiful song. And the orchestra is so well controlled. Wonderful conductor. She's doing a fantastic job,” Mr. Heywood said.
Alexandra Cameron, a music teacher, commended the conductor of Shen Yun's orchestra.
"I felt that her direction was very clear, and I enjoyed seeing and hearing the mix of Western and Chinese instruments together."
Erika Kurec and Frank were also in the audience for this matinee performance.
“I'm just loving the dancing, the costumes, the choreography. Very fluid, very beautiful,” Ms. Kurec said.
As a painter, Ms. Kurec was intrigued by Shen Yun’s use of color.
“Those peachy colors with a strong color and the combinations. And the sleeves, the long sleeve dresses. It's a very evocative treatment,” she said.
“I really like the background film, which is actually interactive, so that you get the background information, and story, and vision interacting with what's happening on stage. And I feel that that's really an interesting way of promoting the story,” Ms. Kurec said.
