Flowers for Mother in May, a large-scale "Soul of the Yellow River" themed concert was held in Los Angeles. The Alberta Times In order to celebrate Mother's Day, the Chinese Consulate General in Los Angeles and the American Association for International Cultural and Art Exchange jointly organized a concert with the theme of "Flowers for Mother in May - Soul of the Yellow River" at Wilshire Ebell on Mother's Day. The theater held a concert themed "Soul of the Yellow River" to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the Revolution of 1911. The Consulate General of Los Angeles also held a historical photo exhibition of the 100th anniversary of the Revolution of 1911 before the concert.

Qiu Shaofang said that this year marks the 100th anniversary of the Revolution of 1911, and today's concert is even more commemorative. The Revolution of 1911 led by Sun Yat-sen overthrew the feudal monarchy and ushered in a new era in Chinese history. Today, China's economy is taking off and its international status has improved.

The concert "Flowers for Mother in May - Soul of the Yellow River" celebrates the mother river that has given birth to 5,000 years of Chinese civilization and expresses the deep attachment of overseas Chinese to their motherland. The highlight of the concert, the piano concerto "Yellow River" played by two pianos, was majestic and exciting, especially the final chorus "Defend the Yellow River", which was inspiring and inspiring. Another major feature of this concert is that foreigners sang in Chinese a well-known classic song, "Where the Peach Blossoms Bloom" by tenor Gabriel Silva, and the additional "Ussuri Barcarolle" aroused the atmosphere of the audience. Soprano Lizbeth Lucca The performance of "I Love You, China" resonated with everyone, and the performances of sopranos Zhou Yumei, Zhang Li, Sun Xinxin and others also won warm applause from the audience.
