The type of music performed was generally quite different than competition festivals for young people. There was a lot of patriotic music and plus songs and melodies that were very popular 20-30 years ago. The emphasis was on fun and making nice musical performances appreciated by the audience. Performers were large orchestras and choirs, groups and small ensembles and soloists. The concept of this successful event in China may well be copied by other accordion associations internationally.
