Do you remember the U.S. choir One Voice, whose pure and beautiful rendition of As You Wish at the Temple of Heaven earlier this year moved audiences across the Internet? This Utah-based choir, with over 5 million subscribers on YouTube, visited Beihai Park on July 13 and gave an impromptu rendition of As You Wish while boating on the lake. The moment echoed their moving performance earlier at the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests, which had previously garnered millions of likes online.

The choir is visiting China for the “Bond with Kuliang: 2025 China-U.S. Youth Choir Festival”, one of the largest thematic youth exchange events between the two countries since the launch of the initiative to invite 50,000 young Americans to China on exchange and study over the next five years.
