At the Expo, the Shanghai Concert Hall moved the wall show into the multimedia screen on the first floor of the news center to show Shanghai culture to the domestic and foreign media.
A beam of musical light emanating from the interior of an ancient Greek building shuttles between the columns of the outer wall of the west side of the Shanghai Concert Hall, and as the light and shadow of the building changes and the spark rises, a 3D wall show opens the prologue.

Shooting in the rain on the evening of October 22, the light show in the rain is still beautiful
When the light and shadow changed from gold to blue, the film film began to run, and the beautiful singing of Zhou Xuan in the old movie "Road Angel" sounded. Founded in 1930, the Shanghai Concert Hall was still called "Nanjing Grand Theatre" at that time. In addition to performing opera, it also played movies, and was the first theater in Shanghai Beach to screen foreign films at that time, and premiered the American song and dance film "Broadway".
From the glitz of the old Shanghai "Broadway" song and dance to the unprecedented grandeur of Mei Lanfang's 13 consecutive performances of "Noble Concubine Drunk", the "Wall of Art" is transformed into a flowing byte and note, telling the early grandeur of the Shanghai Concert Hall.
Six famous violins that have appeared on the historical stage of the concert hall play Vivaldi's violin concerto "Four Seasons", which aims to symbolize the historical changes that the concert hall has gone through with the four seasons.
In line with the urban renewal plan, the Shanghai Concert Hall has been carrying out translational repair projects since September 2002.
The Shanghai Concert Hall, which weighs up to 5650 tons, was lifted by 3.38 meters in the translation and moved from the current elevated Tibet Road ramp to its current position in a southeasterly direction, walking a total of 66.46 meters, creating a miracle in the history of national architectural translation.
The panned concert hall reopened on October 1, 2004, and after the gilded curtain of the light and shadow show was lifted, the throbbing columns and the newly spelled out stage symbolized the rebirth of the Shanghai Concert Hall.
Subsequently, colorful ocean balls poured out from the new concert hall, the whole building evolved into a Lego-style giant musical instrument ocean, trumpets and pianos came into view in the style of colorful toys, and the flowing melody awakened the solidified building, making the "Wall of Art" have a heartbeat and breathe, transmitting the temperature of the city.
Music makes life better, and the epilogue, the "Wall of Art" completes the tribute to the music and the city of Shanghai with classic pictures of "i ♥ sh" and "Citizen Smiley Face Wall". It is understood that the smiling faces of the citizens were specially collected by the concert hall from the citizens and friends, reflecting the friendliness and inclusiveness of the city's art living room.
It is understood that the wall show idea comes from the Shanghai Concert Hall, and the technical support is provided by Xianwei Digital.
The light and shadow are spliced and blended by means of imported high-power high-definition laser projectors, which are projected on the wall on the west side of the concert hall. The sound is set on both sides of the stage and on both sides of the lawn and behind, and the equipment is protected by rain-proof facilities to cope with rainy weather.
Due to the asymmetrical building structure on the west side of the concert hall, and the complex wall and column structure, in order to better match the light and shadow with the building structure, the technical team specially borrowed the miniature model of the concert hall for multiple rounds of test casting to solve the pain points of image distortion correction.
In order to present the expected effect, the lighting and dance design specially installed two rows of computer lights on the top floor of the concert hall, and organically combined with the fine control of the console and the laser and projection screen to form a dazzling effect. Solve the bottleneck of projection screen, atmospheric lighting, and laser in the general projection show that is difficult to dispatch uniformly.
Since the wall show and the audience met, they have received a lot of positive feedback.
On October 25, the Shanghai Synchronized Swimming Team went to the concert hall to watch the performance, and athlete Hou Jiayi shared his feelings with reporters: "The light show is very shocking! These light and shadow pictures stimulated my imagination and creativity, especially one of the broken pictures that impressed me deeply. I hope that my future self can also follow the music and complete such a rhythmic and aesthetic flower tour. ”

It is understood that from the start of the idea to the actual molding, the entire wall show project took more than April, and the first round of display lasted from October 22 to November 11. The appearance at the Expo can almost be counted as the last stop of the first round of wall shows, and whether the work will be paired with other performances in the concert hall in the future is not yet determined.
But what is certain is that this eight-minute light and shadow show has painted a dazzling future picture for Shanghai citizens as a landmark of urban cultural tourism, and the series of performances of "Performing Arts World, Art Gathering in Shanghai" is still continuing, and the pursuit of art in Shanghai is always on the road.
