  • 14 years ago
And continuing on with Shen Yun's performances in Cincinnati over the weekend. The show left quite an impression on a couple in the audience. Here's what they had to say.

Choreographer Doni Jessen and Marketing Director Chris Milligan enjoyed Shen Yun's performance at the Cincinnati Music Hall.

Mr. Milligan was particularly amazed at the skill of the performers.

[Chris Milligan, Marketing Director]:
“The beauty of the dancing was extraordinary. And I thought the singing was great as well. Extraordinary voices…The artistic style, it was a range of all different Chinese cultures.”

Ms. Jessen says the choreography showed the beauty of Chinese culture.

[Doni Jessen, Choreography]:
“I think it’s an amazing show. The choreography was wonderful, and it depicted what I believe are the most beautiful aspects of Chinese culture.”

Mr. Milligan enjoyed listening to Shen Yun's unique orchestra.

[Chris Milligan, Director of Marketing and Audience Development]:
“This is a western orchestra, blended with Chinese instrumentation as well. It’s a great sound to hear.”

Ms. Jessen say she's amazed by the backdrops.

[Doni Jessen, Choreography]:
“The backdrops are amazing. In the past the backdrops were made out of wood and now I see that we’ve gone a little more in to technology and utilizing what we have available today and it gives it a lot of 3D dimension, so I enjoyed it a lot.”

Both Ms. Jessen and Mr. Milligan were very glad that they saw the Shen Yun.

[Doni Jessen, Choreography]:
“I think the audience that I saw was very engaged and happy to be here. I am very happy to have also participated tonight.”

[Chris Milligan, Director of Marketing and Audience Development]:
“Overall uplifting and inspiring.”
