During this period, more than 600 Weekly Show events were held at the twelve cultural squares in Shanghai. The Modern Accordion Orchestra of SHNU was invited to perform at several of these shows as well as the closing ceremony last week. At the ceremony, the orchestra performed the song composed and arranged by the members themselves – Timeless Melody. The Modern Accordion Orchestra consists of students at the Music College of Shanghai Normal University (SHNU) and has held several live shows and concerts in Shanghai since it was formed in 2008.
