The first "Seghizzi" Choral Singing Competition debuted in 1962 and became an international event the following year. More than 1,400 choirs and singers from 72 nations have participated in the event since its inception.

During their trip to Europe, the children's choir from China also performed at the State Opera Under den Linden in Berlin and the Musikverein in Vienna, as well as sharing the stage with local children's choirs.
