What is the theme song of the opening ceremony of the Winter Olympics?

The theme song of Beijing Winter Olympics is Snowflakes. At the opening ceremony of Beijing Winter Olympics, 100 many children sang the theme song of Beijing Winter Olympics. Children dance and play freely in the bird's nest with pigeon lights in their hands. The children's chorus "Snowflake" is melodious, clear, naive, romantic and ethereal. The children who sang Snow Flowers live came from Beijing Philharmonic Choir. "Snowflakes, snowflakes, bloom in the sun ..." When the theme song "Snowflakes" of the opening ceremony of the Beijing Winter Olympics sounded in the "Bird's Nest", the clear and ethereal children's voice immediately touched the audience all over the world.

In March, 20021,Zhao Lin, the music director of the opening ceremony, invited more than 30 composers to write, and finally chose Snowflake as the theme song of the opening ceremony of this Winter Olympics from nearly 40 songs. At first, the creative team wanted famous singers to sing, and thought it had something to do with "You and Me" sung by Liu Huan and sarah brightman in 2008. However, after pondering over the meaning of the theme slogan "Together for the future" of the Winter Olympics and Paralympics, they decided to adopt the form of children's chorus-because the future is pinned on children.

At the beginning of 20021September, the important task of singing the theme song "Snowflake" fell on the shoulders of Beijing Philharmonic Choir. The Beijing Philharmonic Choir was founded in 1983 by Professor Yang Hongnian, a famous conductor, musician and educator. Among music lovers, it is often called "Yang Hongnian Choir", which is not only the benchmark of children's chorus in China, but also has an indissoluble bond with the Olympic Games.
