On September 23, the reporter saw at the rehearsal site of the 2024 Nanning International Folk Song Concert that various high-level cultural and artistic programs are being prepared in full swing and will be officially staged on the evening of the 24th.

The reporter learned from the organizer that this concert invited talented singers from the Chinese music scene to bring classic pop songs to the audience. In addition to domestic singers, artists from ASEAN countries were also invited to perform.

"In order to reflect the international nature of the concert, we invited many foreign singers to participate, and foreign singers accounted for about one-fifth of the total number. When selecting singers, we considered the professionalism of the singers on the one hand, and their influence on the other. For example, Gao Qingchen has recently won the love of many audience friends in "Breaking Through the Troubles", and Lucia, who had a stunning performance on the stage of "Singer 2024" this year, etc. "The party's chief director Liu Xinyuan told reporters that cross-over. Cooperation across national borders can enhance international music exchanges, push Chinese folk songs to the world stage, enhance understanding and respect between different cultures, and promote the international dissemination and exchange of folk song culture.

The reporter also learned that in terms of song selection, this concert included both the interpretation of classic folk songs and the presentation of original songs. The collision and integration of multiple music styles met the listening needs of audiences of different ages. Committed to the inheritance and promotion of folk songs, the concert invites outstanding singers to sing classic folk songs, allowing more people to understand and love this cultural treasure. At the same time, the concert will innovate on the basis of inheritance, combine traditional folk songs with modern music elements, and create more new works that are in line with the aesthetics of the times, hoping to present an audio-visual feast to the audience that pays equal attention to tradition and modernity.(Nanning Daily reporter Wu Xiao)
