World-renowned conductor Tan Dun is rocking global stages again—this time with the China National Symphony Orchestra in France! 🎼 The tour, launched Tuesday, blends East-West harmonies, proving music truly knows no borders.
In an exclusive chat with NewspaperAmigo, Tan shared his vision:
\"Music is the ambassador of the world. Every time we take music to travel, the world changes.\"From humble beginnings in rural China to conducting orchestras worldwide 🌏, he’s spent decades making traditional Chinese instruments like the pipa and guzheng groove with symphonic classics.
Why France? 🤔 Tan emphasized cultural dialogue:
\"This tour isn’t just about notes—it’s about shared stories between peoples.\"Fun fact: His eco-symphonies even use water and paper as instruments! 💦📄
As Gen Z jetsetters and music lovers vibe with cross-cultural collabs, Tan’s message hits harder than a drum solo: Art unites us all. ✨
