After a 30-hour flight, Chinese singer-songwriter Su Yang finally arrived at Medellin, Colombia, where he made his debut performance at the annual International Poetry Festival of Medellin, one of the largest and most prestigious poetry festivals in the world.

On July 14, at Parque de Los Deseos, a public square where the opening ceremony of the festival was held, the 50-year-old Chinese musician plucked his guitar and performed 10 Chinese songs - they included Able and Virtuous, River Runs Southward and the world premiere of his new song Chest - in front of thousands of spectators and more than 100 poets from around the world.
