Central News Agency (CNA) Taipei, May 6 (CNA) -- The Presidential Office Concert will take place on the 23rd at Pingtung County Stadium. Pingtung Paiwan Golden Melody Award singer Dai Xiao-jun will perform with the Naval Band. During their first rehearsal today, Dai Xiao-jun exclaimed "How cool!", saying that this should be Taiwan's first attempt to combine the yueqin with a military band.
Dai Xiao-jun Sauljaljui will perform the song "sinisanparavac You Are Uniquely Radiant" with the Naval Band. The unrestrained style of the song, combined with the majestic military music, will be distinctive. Dai Xiao-jun shared with the media that she was so excited for the rehearsal last night that she couldn't sleep, saying, "I think it's so cool, I never thought they could be combined."
Dai Xiao-jun stated that in junior high school, she envied school bands playing during flag-raising ceremonies and sports days, and even imagined herself playing percussion. Her father was in the Air Force and also served as a conductor, and used to discuss music with her. Having the opportunity to collaborate with a military band this time makes her feel closer to her father, saying, "My father is in heaven, and I will pass on this strength."
The performance song "sinisanparavac You Are Uniquely Radiant" speaks of "confidence." Dai Xiao-jun said that when one is truly confident in doing what one loves, even the sun pales in comparison. For this performance, she primarily uses the yueqin from the Hengchun Peninsula, hoping to show "the more local, the more international" through the yueqin, telling everyone how to express themselves through culture in a land of freedom.
