Beijing, December 24 (Xinhua) — From January 2 to 3, 2026, the Russian State Academic Choreographic Ensemble "Beryozka" named after N. S. Nadezhdina will perform at the National Center for the Performing Arts (NCPA) in Beijing to mark the 70th anniversary of the ensemble's first tour to China. This was announced in a statement by the NCPA, published on its official account on the Chinese social media platform WeChat.

Founded in 1948, the Beryozka Ensemble is not only a hallmark of Russian folk dance culture but also a witness to Sino-Russian cultural exchanges. During the dance company's first tour to China in 1955, the ensemble gave 28 concerts in Beijing, Shanghai, and other cities, sparking a boom in Russian art. The Beryozka Ensemble then visited China again in 1965.

In addition, in 2018, the Beryozka ensemble also performed at the New Year's gala concert of China Central Television, timed to coincide with the celebration of the New Year according to the lunar calendar, leaving an unforgettable impression in the hearts of Chinese viewers. -0-
