Torch Festival 《火把节》

The Torch Festival celebrated by the Yi ethnic group in Southwest China is hailed as the Oriental Carnival. Originating from the worship of fire in ancient times, it’s one of the oldest and most important traditional festivals in Chinese culture. The orchestral version, a brand-new rendition of the tunes of the ethnic groups in Southwest China’s Yunnan province, vividly presents the jubilance of the carnival atmosphere and the positive spirit of Chinese people. #traditionalChinesemusic #folkmusic Composed by Wang Xilin Performed by Orchestra of China National Opera and Dance Drama Theater 火把节是中华民族最古老而重要的传统节日之一，被誉为“东方的狂欢节”，火把节是中国上古“火”崇拜的遗存，具有重要的象征意义，展现了欢乐、希望、和谐的气氛。作品对云南少数民族曲调进行了全新的演绎，时而粗犷，时而婀娜，时而欢腾，淋漓尽致展现出喜庆热烈的民族狂欢场景和积极乐观、豁达开朗的中国情怀。#中国民乐 作曲：王西麟 演奏：#中国歌剧舞剧院 民乐团 Follow us: Youtube:    / cnoddt   Dancing China Youtube:    / @dancingchina2232   Facebook:   / cnoddt   Instagram:   / dancingchina
