2021 Chengdu International Sister Cities Youth Music Festival kicked off in Chengdu on the night of October 22. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the event, under the theme of “Music echoes in Chengdu, melody flies around the globe”, was held online and offline.
47 teams with over 500 performers from 36 countries (regions) either gave live shows or attended the event by videos. A concert video, consisting of the videos sent by overseas artists with foreigners in Chengdu from all continents and a virtual idol as the host, will be available on the digital platform of the Music Festival.
Formerly known as Chengdu Sino-Australian Youth Music Week founded in 2007, Chengdu International Sister Cities Youth Music Festival is celebrating its 15th anniversary this year.
The music video of the theme song We Are One Symphony was released at the opening ceremony. It was composed by Thornton Cline, a brilliant composer from Nashville, the United States, a sister city of Chengdu, and sang by singers from all across the world. This year’s Music Festival also unveiled its first virtual idol Chengdu Panda (CDP), a panda wearing a green hoodie and headphones.
At the opening ceremony, government representatives of Chengdu’s sister cities, including Gold Coast (Australia), Ishikari (Japan), Ljubljana (Slovenia), and Hamilton (New Zealand), congratulated the opening of the Music Festival by videos.
