Wule Symphony Orchestra Resonates with the Finale of Peace through Music and Compassion
VENICE, October 30, 8 PM – The grand finale of the World Peace Culture & Arts Festival was held magnificently at the historic Teatro Malibran in Venice.
Having completed a month-long tour across Italy, the Wule Symphony Orchestra remained in high spirits and exceptional form. Under the guidance of Master Wule, the monastic musicians painted the perfect conclusion for the arts festival with notes embodying both solemnity and compassion.
Eastern Melodies, a Warm Opening
The concert commenced with the distinctly Chinese "The White-Haired Lady Suite." Its melodious tunes evoked deep emotional resonance among the audience, eliciting prolonged applause.
This was followed by the jubilant sounds of the "Spring Festival Overture," which ignited the atmosphere of the entire hall. Master Wule repeatedly turned to the audience, offering serene, palms-together salutes and radiating a benevolent smile that touched every listener present.
World Peace Culture Award Ceremony
At the height of the musical program came the highly anticipated award ceremony.
Master Wule personally presented the "WULE World Peace Culture Award" to Nobel Peace Laureate Leymah Gbowee, in recognition of her outstanding contributions to world peace, as well as her sincere support for the Wule Symphony Orchestra and the Peace Culture & Arts Festival.
Your courage is unparalleled, uniting the extraordinary power of women,
Transforming nonviolent resistance into a weapon to end war,
Paving the path towards peace and dignity for countless individuals.
Ms. Gbowee delivered a remarkable acceptance speech, calling upon every member of the audience to become a guardian of peace.
She invited the entire audience to raise their mobile phone flashlights, transforming them into countless "Lights of Peace" that illuminated the entire theater. In that moment, the Malibran Theatre resembled a starry ocean, profoundly moving all present.
The Power of Music,
Echoes of Peace
Following the award ceremony, the concert proceeded to its second half. As familiar world-renowned melodies filled the air, the audience instinctively began clapping and swaying to the rhythm, creating a warm and fervent ambiance.
When the host announced the official conclusion of the "World Peace Culture & Arts Festival 2025," the audience remained reluctant to depart, chanting "Bravo" and "Encore" – as if wishing for this power of peace and music to never end.
With this, the current World Peace Culture & Arts Festival has drawn to a successful close.
From Milan to Venice, from Sala Verdi to Malibran, Master Wule and the Wule Symphony Orchestra spent a month conveying the belief in "Peace, Compassion, and Love" to countless individuals.
Let us look forward together—
To the 2026 World Peace Culture & Arts Festival.
We shall meet again, continuing to illuminate the world's beacon of hope with music.
