Yunnan Sound, which is a large scale derivative dance show accompanied with percussion music will premiere on May 7th and 8th at the Test Theater of Yunnan Arts Institute. Yang Liping(杨丽萍), a well-known dance artist from Yunnan will be the Chief Choreographer, and the same performers of Yunnan Image will also perform in it。As the sister show of Yunnan Image, Yunnan Sound was defined as a "derivative dance show", which means to attach vital characteristics to it.
In the Yunnan Sound, almost everything that can be held by hands or a mouth will be used to play as musical instruments, including hoes, spike tooth rakes, as well as water and stone mills. Over 100 kinds of folk instruments of ethic groups in Yunnan will be moved onto the stage, which will present original sounds of Yunnan for the audience.(Reported by Minnie Mao, edited by Ada Zhang)
