This is a tragic song of troubled times intertwined with the strings of the piano and the light of the sword, a long scroll of love and hate spread out in the palace of Jinling. When the double-eyed prince Li Yu met Emperor Zhou E in the night of Yaoguang Palace, who was plucking the strings with his bare hands, the residual score of "Nancy Clothes and Feather Clothes" flowing on his fingertips was destined to become the secret key to the Southern Tang Dynasty. And their love is heartbreaking.
Purpose: The work is based on the imperial emotions of Li Yu and Emperor Zhou E, and uses the cultural symbol of "The Song of Feather Clothes" to reveal the fragility of artistic ideals in political strife and the collapse of dynasties. It digs into the struggle of cultural elites in troubled times to resist the torrent of reality with their talents. Finally, in the intertwining of love elegy and the pain of national subjugation, it interrogates the inevitable collision of personal destiny and historical waves, and how cultural symbols become spiritual totems that inscribe the tragedies of the times.
