The ongoing Changchun Film Festival reached a crescendo on the evening of August 24 as the 2026 Changchun Film Night movie symphony concert resounded through the Jilin Provincial Concert Hall. At the heart of the performance, world-renowned pianist Kong Xiangdong captivated the audience with a dramatic rendition of Richard Addinsell's Warsaw Concerto, originally composed for the 1941 classic film Dangerous Moonlight. In an exclusive dialogue with CGTN, Kong reflected on the symbiotic relationship between cinema and symphonic art and sharing behind-the-scenes insights into how music translates the emotional depth of the silver screen onto the concert stage.
