It’s a lazy autumn day in Sydney’s exclusive Eastern Suburbs, yet there’s still a big turnout for the last of Shen Yun’s Australian shows, which aim to revive China’s ancient culture and heritage.
雪梨东部郊外ㄧ个慵懒的秋日，有ㄧ大群人等待神韵在澳洲的最后一场演出，演出的目标是要复兴中国古老的文化与遗产。

“There’s dance; there’s music; there’s the two individual singers: the baritone and the soprano…the beautiful pianist, who’s doing an incredible job. But the music, the fun – there’s humor there. The colors are incredible and the drums, of course. The drums are quite special.”
鼓乐的爱好者丽兹‧麦肯基说：“有舞蹈、有音乐、还有两个个人的歌唱家：男中音及女高音…当然美丽的钢琴家也表现的很优秀，而音乐很有趣，有其幽默，色彩真是不可思议，鼓的演出也很特别。”
Being no stranger to Chinese culture, she says Shen Yun encompasses ethnic diversity.
因为对中华文化并不陌生，她说神韵包含了种族的多样性。
[Liz Mackenzie, Drum Enthusiast]:
“Within China there are many identities…you go to all the different areas; you’ve got the different dialects, the different colors. Like you go down to the south-west country[side]…there’s all those beautiful colors there. With the influence coming down from Tibet and the Himalayas – it’s really beautiful to witness.”
鼓乐的爱好者丽兹‧麦肯基说：“中国内部就有许多土着…你去不同的地区，就听到不同的方言、看到不同的色彩，像你朝西南乡间走…那里就有美丽的色彩，有来自西藏及喜马拉雅山的影响，看起还真是漂亮。
It also shows how individual pieces combine to create a masterpiece.
而且表现出独特的部分，组合成ㄧ部杰作。
[Liz Mackenzie, Drum Enthusiast]:
“I appreciate the focus and the fluency that goes into producing such an amazing performance. There are a lot of individuals who are shining, but nonetheless they have to perform in flow with the group, so that was very impressive.”
鼓乐的爱好者丽兹‧麦肯基说：“我很欣赏制造这样一个令人惊艳演出的焦点和流畅性，其中有很多个人表演有耀眼的特色，但是他们却必须与团体流畅演出，所以令人印象深刻。”
Mackenzie walked away with an even greater appreciation of Chinese heritage.
麦肯基带着对中华文化遗产更为欣赏的心情离开。
