The erhu concerto Great Wall Capriccio is not only a hymn to the great architecture of the Great Wall, but also a praise of the indomitable and self-improving spirit of the Chinese nation.

The Chinese orchestral piece Sounds of the Tang Dynasty played out the history and cultural heritage of the Tang Dynasty (618-907), allowing the audience to experience not only the brilliance of the era but also the yearning and pursuit of a peaceful life by the people of that time.
