Dragons & Drums of the Tang Dynasty

DC 2005: Tang Dynasty & Tianjiao Performing Arts Groups

In Chinese culture, dragons are auspicious beings from Heaven,
and lions are a sign of strength. In addition to the dragon and
lion dances that are often performed during festive occasions,
this dance incorporates Tang Dynasty-style drums and flag
formations, creating a rousing spectacle with which to open
our New Year celebration.
