A competition staged by the national theater gives young composers a chance to shine on the world stage, Chen Jie reports.
Xiao Ying was living a dream, standing in front of a full-house at the National Center for the Performing Arts.
"I've imagined standing on this stage so many times. Last year's failure did not let me down. I did not give up. Instead, I kept composing. I love art and music," said Xiao, 26, when he won the National Center for the Performing Arts Young Composer Program on Dec 16.
