Undergraduate student Ge Xu from the School of Journalism and Information Communication: I was nervous at the beginning, but when the prelude started, I heard someone saying “wow” in a pleasantly surprised voice, and another audience member singing along. Thanks to the reactions of our audience, I got instantly relaxed and gradually immersed in the song.
