The teachers broke down songs into mini-beats so the children could practice each segment independently. During rehearsals, four teachers conducted using specially developed hand signals. Deng noted that these gestures were crucial for guiding the young musicians, each of whom had their own way of perceiving the music.

"The Firefly River Project symbolizes countless small yet resilient lights. We hope that each child can shine like a firefly, eventually coming together to form a brilliant galaxy," Deng said.
