Artists included Russian band Bis Quit, Polish singer Katagina Mackevich, Chinese pipa player Mu Yang and pianist Chen Ziyi.

The concert provided an audio-visual feast for the audience with 18 pieces of Chinese and Russian classical and folk music. Jasmine Flower, a classic Chinese song was presented before the curtain went down, followed by waves of applause.
