The National Center for the Performing Arts (NCPA) in Beijing is celebrating its 14th birthday with a series of performances and activities. A specially-planned online concert is being held on Friday night to reciprocate the support and love from the audience over so many years. The online performances by the NCPA orchestra and chorus are diverse, and include the Sailor's Chorus and Fire Chorus.

The NCPA opened in December 2007 and was designed by French architect Paul Andreu.
