Shen Yun Review: Lukas Medlam, composer and violinist

“The first words that came to mind were that the entire performance is fascinating. I was aware and have heard much about the performance, orchestra, artists and musicians over the past four years. Unfortunately I was out of town during the performances. Finally, I can see this show... What a marvel. There is no one in Vienna who could write this type of composition. Musicians in this city are more inclined to write contemporary music. That’s why it is so refreshing to hear Shen Yun’s music. It is based on old traditional musical forms and brings harmony to its audience... Clearly, I was captivated and had many amazing moments. Additionally, the connection between what is shown on stage and the music is fantastic. The synchronization between the dancers and the orchestra is unusual. I was touched throughout the show and can only say that I experienced something magnificent tonight.”
