Park symphony promotes eco-friendly lifestyle

Against the backdrop of a blue sea and green lawn, Shenzhen’s first Park Symphony and Green Concert for Earth Day was successfully held at the Bailupo (Egret Slope) Book Bar of Shenzhen Bay Park in Nanshan District yesterday afternoon.

The event was jointly held by the Shenzhen Vitalization Symphony Development Foundation, Shenzhen park management center, Shenzhen Symphony Orchestra (SZSO), Tencent Music Entertainment Group, QQ Music and other charity organizations. Shenzhen Daily offered media support for the event.

Shao Bing, deputy director of SZSO, said at a ceremony prior to the art performances that the park symphony offered citizens hanging around the park a chance to feel the breath of spring through music.

The art performances were officially kicked off by SZSO, creating an aesthetic scene for citizens to join a feast for the ears at the book bar of the park.
