As an international music event, Summer Music Day adheres to the concept of "free and diverse" to bring the best music to the world. For the past seven years, each year's "Summer Solstice Music Day" has been a feast of world music in Sinan, exploring the infinite possibilities and positive interaction between a public space and music and the public.
Whether it's pop, Tango, Salsa, Samba, Blues, Rhythm & Blues, French Chansons or Chinese Love Songs. Whether it is a refreshing or a light chant, it is relaxed and lazy or deep and long. The melody is like the air soaking into the pores, and everyone on and off the stage is touched by the "music without countries" around the world, and sways and sings with the rhythm.
People use the most relaxed smiles and intimate gestures to tell us what kind of temperament change a music festival can bring to the public space.
