CHIAYI, Taiwan—Lin Chenyang, president of Nanhua University’s College of the Arts, along with two professors of the same school, came to the National Chung Cheng University in Chiayi County to watch New York-based Shen Yun Performing Arts 2009 World Tour on March 10.

“Shen Yun replayed China’s 5000 years of traditional culture. It was very virtuosic and divinely skilled,” said Mr. Lin.

He said that it was astounding that Shen Yun could manifest historical characters such as the Monkey King and the pig from Journey to the West with classical Chinese dance.

“The performance was extremely beautiful. I witnessed ancient Chinese etiquette and culture. Whether the music, steps, or costumes, it was all very unique, wonderful, and rich in content.”

He said that in the program, Dance of the Snow-Capped Mountain, the costumes and the backdrops all matched very well. The entire performance used the three primary colors very well.

Mr. Lin said that he realized that everyone was very touched as they clapped with great enthusiasm. “Shen Yun made us feel that the whole society is under the care of Buddhas and Gods.”
