In the continuation of an incredible friendship that’s blossomed between Muscatine and China since the visit of China’s President Xi Jinping before he was president in 1985, the China Broadcasting Chinese Orchestra performed in Muscatine last night.
Their performance was outstanding, bringing the crowd of about 1,000 people to its feet four times for three encores. It was a wonderful start to the many more exciting Chinese cultural offerings that Muscatine will see in the future.
If we saw you there last night, comment below! If we didn’t, check out our photos to see what you missed!
