Chengdu, as an increasingly famous and open city, and a national central city that’s being built, should be nurtured, warmed and promoted by music in order to make itself lively and bright, and gradually enhance the standards of citizens’ cultural life.
Music can always catch hold of the impulse of the era. In this autumn, a music gala called the 2017 “Autumn in Chengdu” International Music Season is in full swing in Chengdu to sing for the new look and new spirit of the city in the new era.
The implementation of the International Music Season is a strong move taken to construct the capital of music, reinforce the function of western area as a cultural creativity center and build the world’s renowned cultural city.
After going through hardships and severe tests for more than 2,600 years, Chengdu has built its own infinite charms. If innovation and creation are inherent cultural genes of Chengdu, then elegance and fashion are its unique and splendid cultural traits; if optimism and tolerance represent the inclusive bearing of Chengdu, then friendship and public welfare are the externalized cultural expression of Chengdu. This is the “Chengdu culture” we have advocated. This time, we will demonstrate such culture through music.
The convening of the International Music Season is a powerful initiative designed to build the capital of music, strengthen the function of western area as a cultural creativity center and construct the world’s renowned cultural city.
To become the capital of music, Chengdu needs to have the ability to sound the trumpet call of action. The 76-day rhythm suffices to prove that “Autumn in Chengdu” can fulfill such great mission
