For half a year, COVID-19 has separated us and made the world a little strange. But Blue Note China is still here, with us, let’s celebrate this special fourth anniversary with a series of carnivals!
What effect can an 18-person All-Star Jazz band bring? The shocking loud brass-pinned playing can be used to control the dance hall accompaniment of 3,000 people in the era without amplification; the all-star lineup is wonderful solo improvisation, and the solo battle between performers is another aspect of the attractiveness of the big bands in the post-swing era; the neat sync rhythm and rich harmony colors are the unique sound effects of the big bands of the jazz band; not to mention the trumpets that sing loudly, the saxophones that show off their skills and the passionate drummers! This concert will lead all audiences to experience the unique charm of these jazz bands one by one, which is exciting.
Friends who like to watch the exhibition are also blessed!

. "Orphan of Zhao"
The world's most well-known super Chinese IP, Lin Zhaohua, Tian Qinxin, Chen Kaige and other different versions with the highest Douban score, the most tear-jerking and "most understandable" large-scale dance drama - the Chinese Opera and Dance Theater dance version "Orphan of Zhao" has been dormant for many years and finally resurrected with full blood!
The story of "The Orphan of Zhao" can be said to be well known in China. It has a turbulent historical background, a full of dramatic tension, and a rich and colorful character image, forming a profound human photo. It is adapted from the Yuan zaju drama "The Orphan Case of Zhao Family". During the Spring and Autumn Period, the noble Zhao family of Jin was framed by the treacherous minister Tu Anjia and was brutally destroyed. The only bone and blood were entrusted to the doctor Cheng Ying. In the crisis of killing all the people, Cheng Ying sacrificed his own flesh and blood in order to save the lives of the orphans of Zhao and the whole city. From then on, Cheng Ying embarked on a long road of loyalty and righteousness alone.
The whole play condenses the story that spans 16 years to two days - the "Massacre Night" in the first half, the "Adult Day" in the second half, the connection between the two first and second games is the only shout in the whole dance drama: "Cheng Ying and her son Cheng Bo, are willing to be the guest of the Tu'an, and follow the adults forever!" The deafening cry is in sharp contrast with the previous promised daughter, which not only promotes the major turning point in the plot, but also reveals the pain and discomfort of Cheng Ying's servitude for the promise. The structure is highly compact, the plot is full of twists and turns, the dramatic conflict is strong, the character is vivid, and the fate of the characters is completed in one go, making the audience cheerful.

4 Good Book Recommendation
In the past, we needed to buy tapes and CDs to listen to music, and music had to be paid at that time; but I don’t know when it started, music actually became a free lunch that you can enjoy by clicking the mouse on the Internet! The author of this book, Stephen Witt, spent five years flying across the three continents of the United States, Europe and Asia, to write this book "History of the Development of Pirated Music", to unravel the thread and explore the true source of digital music piracy. This is not only a story about the music industry, but also an Internet history that has never been told. In his self-reporter Cai Zhexuan, translator of
, said: "When I read the book "How Music Got Free" in 2016, I was already translating it privately. The motivation at that time was very simple. I felt that this book was well written and wanted more friends around me, especially those in the music industry, to read it. Four years later, the book was published by Shanghe Zhuoyuan/Henan University Press. The people who read it far exceeded my initial expectations - this is the best part of the book "How Music Becomes a Free Lunch" left for me. Thank you to everyone who has read it, you are all members of this part."
This year is undoubtedly a magical year, "when reality is surprising, only fiction can make sense of it." Against this background, The New York Times invited more than 10 contemporary writers, including Margaret Atwood, to create on the theme of the epidemic. Pu Rui's author and short story master Etga Carret also participated in this creative activity and published "Suddenly, a knock on the door". Carret has a strong personal style, and the story is short and concise, full of energy and insight, which is worth reading.
Seabirds are masters on the sea and in the wind, and are the only creatures that can live freely on land, ocean and sky. Human beings are fascinated by. They have grown up in extremely difficult environments on the earth and have survived for 100 million years, but now they seem to be being destroyed by us. The new book "The Cry of the Seabirds" in the natural literature shows readers a different bird world. They can travel the habitat of 10 species of seabirds without leaving their homes, including albatross, puffins, boobies, etc., and learn the moving details of seabirds' lives and amazing survival wisdom.
