The Orchestra of the China National Opera & Dance Drama Theater staged a symphony suite inspired by the Beijing 2022 Olympic Winter Games at the National Centre for the Performing Arts' Taihu Theater in Beijing on Saturday. 

Conducted by young musician Jin Gang, the concert presented five sections that depicted various winter sports at the Games through music. As the third such event staged in Beijing, the concert also seeks to show the charm of the dual Olympics city by incorporating Chinese aesthetics into the symphony.

A key project by the Beijing Culture and Art Foundation, the symphony suite was composed by Zheng Junsheng and Zheng Junli.
