Chinese wind music posesses a unique timbre and an extremely powerful stage appeal. This wind concert, besides solos and percussion and winds combinations, features modern works such as Metal Chimes, Kung Fu, and the chamber piece Al Laox, full of musical elements of the Dong ethnic group of Guangxi Province, allowing the musicians to convey tender feelings through the lips and teeth and manifest an inexhaustible charisma through the breathing.
