After listening to the performance of our
symphony orchestra, Mr. Tao made a mobilization speech by saying, “The national
art troupe performance season that we will take a part is an important event.
CNODDT arranged the symphony orchestra to participate in the event on its
behalf through deliberations. On the one hand, the symphony orchestra is an
important component of our theater and can reflect our overall strength; On the
other hand, the event is actually an important test for our symphony orchestra
to perform with other national orchestras on the same stage. I’m very confident
after listening to your performance!”

and make improvements.”
