As calligraphers wrote bold Chinese characters on red paper, a group of musicians in traditional Chinese costumes from the Great Boston Chinese Cultural Association played Chinese folk music at Boston Symphony Hall.
They were invited by the Boston Symphony Orchestra to perform before a concert given by the orchestra to show support for Chinese people against the novel coronavirus epidemic at the hall on Feb 16.
Calligraphy work from local Chinese calligrapher Mei Yuguo saying “Wuhan jia you”, meaning “Be Strong, Wuhan”, was attached to the wall at the entrance of the concert.
