\n\tThe Ethnic Art Ensemble of Guizhou University will dazzle the audience with performances representing ethnic life in the west of China. The ensemble has performed in Russia, Ukraine, America, South Korea, and France. <\/p>\n


\n\tFormed in 1998, the ensemble has captured numerous prizes. For example, the Miao dance, \u201cWater Girls,\u201d won the gold medal of the Sixth China \u201cLotus Prize\u201d for Ethnic and Folk Dancing Competition, the first prize for the Second National University Students Art Performance Competition (Specialized Group), and was invited to perform at the National Spring Festival Evening Party organized by Central Chinese Television. The dance uses \u201cwater\u201d as a medium that technically integrates with the Miao dance. <\/p>\n


\n\tThe Miao Dance, \u201cSilver Necklace,\u201d won the silver medal of the Sixth China \u201cLotus Prize\u201d for Ethnic and Folk Dancing Competition in 2007. The silver necklaces are decorations worn by Miao ethnic girls in Guizhou. The dance combines the necklaces with dance movements to provide a strong visual impression with the intent of showing the long life of the Miao culture. <\/p>\n


\nThe Miao Dance, \u201cDancing with the Beat of Drums\u201d, was performed at the ceremony of 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing and at \u201cMeet at Beijing in 2008.\u201d Dancing to the beat of drums, the dancers wear silver decorations and form a circle and dance. The dance steps and the dancers\u2019 posture are interrelated again and again with the leisurely and measured dance.<\/p>\n


\nWhen the dance reaches its zenith, a female solo, \u201cSong of Celebration,\u201d begins, reflecting the Miao people\u2019s enthusiastic spirit for development and progress. <\/p>\n
