ISMAILIA, Egypt, Oct. 4 -- The theatre of the Suez Canal University in Ismailia province was fully packed late Wednesday with Egyptian students, who were enchanted by the traditional Chinese music performed by a delegation of Chinese artists.
The artists, from the University of Jinan in China's Shandong Province, held a concert of classical Chinese music which deeply impressed the young Egyptian audience.
The concert was organized by the Confucius Institute and the Suez Canal University of Egypt.
Hou Qihai, director of the Theatrical Troupe of the University of Jinan, said the performance was presented by 19 students and teachers from the music school of the university, which is located in Shandong Province, the birth place of ancient Chinese philosopher Confucius.
"The show is meant to bring Chinese traditional culture to countries along the Belt and Road. It also aims at enhancing cultural exchange between young people from Egypt and China," he told Xinhua.
The University of Jinan set up its music school in 2011. The school has been striving to create a distinctive Qilu music culture.
Students of the Suez Canal University were captivated from the very beginning of the show, especially by the very traditional Chinese instruments used by the artists.
"It is really nice that our counterparts from Chinese universities fly to Egypt to bring their traditional arts to us," Nour Allah Hussam, a student of English Literature College, told Xinhua.
