Commenting on the show, Guan Yu, a teacher at the Beijing Dance Academy, said: “The past 40 years have seen big developments in the Chinese dance scene, both in the research and teaching of Chinese dance forms and Western dances. So, the three performances we staged reflect different generations of Chinese choreographers.”

According to Wang Jun, the director of physical education, health and art at the Beijing Municipal Commission of Education, the top nine Chinese art schools join hands together every two years to present a show, which reflects their achievements.
