Remark
*Appearance by kind permission of City Contemporary Dance Company

"Ji" is not tai chi, but an awe-inspiring, magnificent epic scroll of the Chinese nation’s values over thousands of years: the inherent Ways as demonstrated in Nature, affinity with heaven and earth, moral cultivation, filial piety and respect for teachers, consolidation of family ties, governance of the state, and harmony with the world. The performance has music as the overall vehicle of expression, and blends other forms of performing arts, such as lighting, modern dance, Taichi Wushu Dance and children's choral singing. The result is an insightful showcase of traditional Chinese cultural thinking.
