Introduction of Song of Life

The life between heaven and earth

Is just like a fleeting show,

Everything changes all of a sudden.

--Chuangtse

Tchaikovsky's Symphony No. 6 is considered by many to be the composer's own requiem. Though its strains mourn the passing of life, the music lacks neither warmth nor brightness. In the choreography of Song of Life, Tchaikovsky's Sixth was selected as the musical accompaniment. It vividly and exquisitely expresses the sentiment of life and blends together with the philosophy of the Chinese intellectual Chuangtse, conveying his notion that 'everything changes as clouds change shape'while provoking contemplation of life's transience.
