The Beijing Concert Hall was packed on Saturday evening and as the lights dimmed to signal the beginning of a night of music, conductor Kahchun Wong stepped onto the stage.

The concert, presented by the China National Symphony Orchestra in collaboration with conductor Wong and pianist Wan Jieni, paid tribute to the 50th anniversary of Russian composer Dmitri Shostakovich's passing with three classic works, showcasing the intertwining passion, reflection, and hope within his music.

The evening opened with Festive Overture, a joyful work where the brass fanfare instantly established a lively, jubilant atmosphere. During the piece's closing, Wong's commanding gestures stirred a wave of exuberance, earning enthusiastic applause.
