“I chose the song which I think is very suitable for today’s event because it is a short piece and everyone including those who are not familiar with classic music could enjoy it,” said Emiliya, adding that the park symphony is a good form to bring people and nature together.

“我选择的这首曲目非常适合今天的活动，因为它是一首短曲，即使不熟悉经典音乐的人也能欣赏这首曲子。”她还补充说道，公园交响乐是一个很好的形式，能将人与自然结合在一起。

A total of 10 citizens directed the SZU Chamber Orchestra to perform the song “Main Title,” bringing the event to a climax. The 10 people were selected from 52 applicants registered for orchestral conductors before the event.

Don Rechtman, one of the 10 selected citizens who knew the event from Shenzhen Daily, said that “I like being here because I have done little conducting in China as I couldn’t speak Chinese but this gives me a chance to do it, which I like doing. I like this event because this gives greater experience of exposure to the symphonic form to more people. Music is a multi-cultural language and events like this help enrich people’s lives and feelings.”

Don是参与演奏指挥的市民代表之一，是一位长期生活在深圳的外国人。他告诉记者，正是通过英文《深圳日报》的活动预热新闻，他了解到此次活动并报名参与。

Don说：“我很高兴能来到这里，我在中国很少做指挥，因为我不会说中文，但这次活动给了我一个机会，让我做我喜欢的事情。我喜欢这个活动，这种形式可以让更多的人接触到交响乐。音乐是一种多元文化的语言，这样的活动有助于丰富人们的生活和感受。”

In this park music tour, citizens not only enjoyed the wonderful music but also looked at the vast blue sea to have an immersive experience of the park’s natural environment and get close to the nature.

在这场公园音乐之旅中，市民朋友不仅能欣赏到美妙的乐曲，同时在置身公园的惬意的自然环境时，以身临其境之感映衬本次活动亲近自然的主题。

何家龙是参与演奏指挥的市民代表之一。他告诉英文《深圳日报》，活动引人入胜之处在于它在自然环境中举行，在和专业音乐家合作的同时还能享受大自然，这种感觉很美好。

The event is aimed to create an interesting scene for citizens to join the park symphony, mobilize people to participate in the environmental protection activity through symphonic music, and improve the overall environment of the earth through green and low-carbon living. The event attracted over 1,000 citizens on site, according to the organizers.
