No longer unfamiliar to DIFF audiences, the Pyrotex Fireworx team from the UK, returned to the Korean River with a performance that was likened to a film concert imbued with poetry called "Emotional Waves". With about 8,000 specially designed fireworks, each chapter in the competition is a knee music, leading viewers from gentle, romantic to exciting and sublime.
The opening part is a quiet space, like a love song written in the deep ocean. But then suddenly accelerated with the familiar soundtrack series from the 007 series James Bond, bringing viewers into a world of dramatic action. Immediately after that, the atmosphere turned cheerful, close to a series of Vietnamese songs such as Nguoi de kem di (My Tam), Noi nay co anh (Son Tung M-TP) rang out, making the entire Vietnamese audience burst into laughter and excitement. The audience not only watched but also sang along, shaking, and harmonizing in emotional joy.
And then, like a gentle but profound shift, the final part of the performance brought the audience back with timeless masterpieces: Canto Della Terra, Live and Let Die, Dancing Queen, Future World Music... all blended together in a captivating fireworks symphony. That was the moment when the emotions were excited, both calm and sublime as if standing in the middle of an outdoor fireworks Opera.
If Portugal brings a fiery rock music festival, Anh is a concert of many styles, from action, romance to cinema, all in one song "waves of emotions" that make viewers sink into a dead end.
