It showcased a fusion of Chinese and Western musical traditions, opened with a guzheng solo, High Mountains and Flowing Water, symbolizing profound friendship, followed by performances of beloved pieces like Jasmine Flower and Fisherman's Song at Dusk.

Western operatic classics such as Puccini's O mio babbino caro and Gershwin's Summertime were also performed, with ensemble performances blending traditional Chinese instruments with violin and piano, culminating in The Brocade Zither, a musical rendering of Tang poetry.
