Adding a cross-cultural touch, Serbian violinist Milica joined the Chinese performers. "It is a great pleasure to work and perform with musicians from China. It's always a unique experience to share music together," she said.
Milica, a member of the Belgrade Philharmonic Orchestra, noted that although she had met many Chinese musicians during previous visits to China, this was her first official collaboration with a Chinese ensemble. "The music is amazing. I love its melodies and unique style," she added.
Audience member Andjela praised the performance for its artistry, costumes, and diverse instruments. "It was something different and truly beautiful. I haven't seen a Chinese show like this before, but now I definitely want to experience more," she said.
This marked the Hubei Performing Arts Group's third appearance in Serbia's Spring Festival celebrations, following performances in Bor and Nis.
