There are five main soloists, twelve musicians, and a group of sixty-four people chorus performs in the concert. The instruments that they have used were piano, electric bass, percussion, flute and bamboo flutes, two violins, viola, cello, two oboes, and two clarinets. During the performance, hundreds of artworks are projected to a projection screen that is hanging on top of the stage. They also use lighting effects to showcase the structure of the concert hall and generate the mood of the story.

The melodic is contour conjunct because all the songs in this concert are sung by people and pitches are closer apart. The harmony is generally consonant.

The audience is very respectful to performers and other audience; they get quiet once the program starts.
