    During the performance, themed "Beautiful Grassland, My Hometown", the chorus sang classic Mongolian folk songs as well as the Christmas Song Sing Noel and Australian folk song Waltzing Matilda. The latter two songs were sung both in English and Chinese.

    Three characteristics of Mongolian music, including Mongolian long tone, matouqin (horse-head fiddle) and Mongolian throat singing, were featured in the performance and won prolonged applause from the audience.

    "It's an amazing performance. I could see the horses, grassland and Mongolian people. It reminds me of culture and history. I love this performance, because it’s a rare opportunity for the students to experience such a culture," said the headmaster of Marsden High School, Gus Vrolyk.

    Zhao Li, head of the China Culture Center in Sydney, explained that the aim of the performance is to let more local youth have more opportunities to experience Chinese culture.

    "I've never heard of this kind of music before. I'm very interested in it and very happy to have such an experience. It's really a good chance to learn Chinese culture and language," according to a student in Marsden High School.

    The Australia-Inner Mongolia Culture Week marks the conclusion of the year of cooperation between Sydney’s China Culture Center and the Culture Department of the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. It aims to display the grassland to the people of Australia in a comprehensive way, through visual art, performances and intangible cultural heritage exhibitions.

    The culture week was scheduled on Dec 12 and was hosted by the Ministry of Culture and the Inner Mongolia people’s government.
