Caption: "The music quality was excellent," says musician Don Campbell

On March 30, 2010, Canadian audiences bore witness to the masterpiece that is Shen Yun. Among those fortunate enough to attend such a splendid show was long time musician and band leader Mr. Don Campbell.

"I'm highly impressed with, first of all, the quality of the production and the music performance--absolutely outstanding. That was very, very good," said Mr. Campbell, who attended the show with his wife.

"The music quality was excellent; the conductor was fabulous," he said.

Mr. Campbell also praised the dancing in the show and was awed by the dancers' the skill.

"The dancers amazed me; I didn't realize that in Chinese dance the footwork, which is really intricate, is very gender specific," he said.

"The women have quite different footwork from the men. Both very intricate, but quite quite different,"

The "athletic skills," particularly for the men but also for the women, was "amazing," he said, and "seeing the men leaping across the stage and the women virtually floating, their heads absolutely still as they went across the stage--it was just amazing how together they were. I was very very impressed."

The whole production, said Mr. Campbell, was "fabulous, it was wonderful, I'm looking forward to attending again next year."

Acting Instructor: outstanding

Pamela Lukenoff, a performer and acting instructor, was impressed by Shen Yun's portrayal of China's rich history and culture.

"It's wonderful to see the culture," she said. "To be able to be a part of this experience, of the dedication of the dancers and the performers is outstanding."

Being in show business, Ms. Lukenoff said she realizes and appreciates the hours of hard work that go into creating a show of such superb quality.

"The time that it must have taken to do such a whole production is outstanding," she said.

"And for many performers on the stage! I say 'bravo' to the choreographer."

Ms. Lukenoff said that when she saw the performance about the persecution of Falun Dafa practitioners in China, it made her cry and was very "touching."
