飞天登皇大型舞蹈
– The oasis town of Dunhuang lay at a crucial junction of the Silk Road,
that ancient braid of caravan trails stretching for more than 7,000
kilometres from China to the Mediterranean, which served as a highway not
just for merchandise, but also for ideas - religious, cultural and artistic.
By the 4th century AD, the Silk Road had brought Dunhuang both commercial
prosperity and a growing religious community. The three sections of the
program represent the beautiful art of Dunhuang and secret histry of Mogao
Caves. 敦煌
(Dunhuang): 是我国河西走廊最西部的城市,
是丝绸之路古道上东西方政治、经济、文化交流的交汇处。提到敦煌,
人们就会想到神秘的莫高窟
(Mogao Caves). 莫高窟位于甘肃敦煌市东南25公里的鸣沙山东麓崖壁上,
开凿始于公元366年。据记载，一位德行高超的和尚乐囫柱杖西游至此，见千佛闪耀，心有所悟，于是，凿下第一个石窟。从十六国到元朝，石窟的开凿一直沿续了十个朝代，1500年.
至今，乐樽的那个石窟早已无法分辨得出，而莫高窟经过风沙侵蚀仍保存着十个朝代的750多个洞窟，窟内壁画四万五千平方米，彩塑三千余身和唐宋窟檐木构建筑五座。此外，还有上千件绢画、版画、刺绣和大量书法作品。如果把所有艺术作品一件件阵列起来，便是一座超过二十五公里长的世界大画廊。莫高窟是世界上现存规模最宏大、保存最完好的佛教艺术宝库,
被誉为“东方艺术明珠”。在莫高窟各个时代的壁画中，有反映当时的一些生产劳动场面、社会生活场景、衣冠服饰制度、古代建筑造型以及音乐、舞蹈、杂技的画面.
另外还有民族传统神话题材及各种各样的装饰图案。从壁画中，可以看到各民族各阶层的各种社会活动，如帝王出行、农耕渔猎、冶铁酿酒、婚丧嫁娶、商旅往来、使者交会、弹琴奏乐、歌舞百戏……世间万象，林林总总。飞天(Feitian)，是中国艺术家用绵长的飘带使她们优美轻捷的女性身躯漫天飞舞。飞天是民族艺术的一个绚丽形象。提起敦煌，人们就会想到神奇的飞天。请欣赏,

dances. The fans are skillfully used to illustrate paintbrush, sword,
flowers, and water waves. This solo dance is performed by our skilled dancer
Ching Li who combines the simple and complex movements with the soft fan to
symbolize painting and sword practicing in a raining night. When the rain
stopped and the sky became clear, she started chasing the signing birds and
breathing in the morning breeze.

flower in the rain” - Just like the Chinese language, Chinese
dance has its unique vocabulary, semantics, and syntactic structure that
enable a dancer to fully express her thoughts and feelings with ease and
grace on the stage. This solo dance is performed by Jinghong Li who is one
of our two dance instructors. The music is “Blooming flower in the rain”
that describes - In a beautiful morning, the girl was waked up by the rain
drops, singing birds and morning breeze. She was so happy that she could not
wait to jump in the rain. The red umbrella symbolizes the flower blooming in
the rain and beautiful movements reflect her cheerful mind and happy
feelings.

of the Dai ethnic group in Yunnan Province, it stands for auspiciousness and
beauty. The excellent Peacock Dance reflects their respect for peace,
honesty, water and beauty. Peacock is marked by the undulations of the waist
and the arms. This triple dance is performed by the skilled dancers using
the special movements of arms and neck to reflect peacock’s spirit. The
following poem is the best description of the dance:
Where are you
dancing?
Your profile looks as lonely as
the moon,
feathers from clouds descending.
Where are you dancing?
Your dream omen is at anyone's guess,
Skirts on the rainbow spinning.
Spirit of the peacock,
Where are you dancing?
Where are you dancing?
