“The show is so incredible,” said Ms. Schewa Dreyfus about Shen Yun in Lausanne. The Swiss singer and music teacher has always explored sound as an inner spiritual experience. She participates in opera and musical theater projects, while also teaching children and adults.
“It’s very, very touching and deeply spiritual. ... At the same time, everything is perfect, but you can feel the heart behind every gesture. For me, when perfection, heart, and spirituality come together, it contributes to peace on this earth,” she said.
‘A Painting Full of Beauty That Shows Multidimensionality’
Shen Yun’s mission is to revive traditional Chinese culture, which spans 5,000 years of history. Shen Yun means “the beauty of divine beings dancing,” paying tribute to a deeply spiritual culture. Indeed, the ancient Chinese all believed in a culture inherited from the divine. They therefore placed spirituality at the heart of their lives, honoring the deities and respecting the harmony that exists between Heaven, Earth, and Man.“It touches my heart deeply,” says Ms. Schewa Dreyfus. “We are guided, we are protected too, even when humanity is going through very difficult times. ... There is grace, love, every moment of the present. It touches me deeply that they have the courage to bring this message to the world. It is very, very courageous of them!”
Shen Yun is “a beautiful tableau that reveals multidimensionality,” Ms. Schewa Dreyfus said.
‘It’s Both Extremely Precise and Aesthetically Pleasing—It’s Very Beautiful’
After attending Shen Yun on Sunday, Corine Moinat said she was moved by “the colors and diversity” of the scenes presented. The former president of Geneva Airport “really, really enjoyed” the show, which she described as “very poetic and at the same time very dynamic.”“It’s both extremely precise and aesthetic, it’s very beautiful!” said Mrs. Moinat. “These are magnificent performances, it’s a feast for the eyes!”
Mrs. Moinat was able to identify “kindness,” emphasizing that “these are values that I share and appreciate; they touch me personally.”
Mrs. Moinat admits to having been particularly moved by “the story of these people who are mistreated”: “I sympathize, but it’s true that it’s very complicated, especially in China. However, I think they have a wonderful way of making themselves known.”
