Congresswoman Carolyn B. Maloney heralded the way Shen Yun is preserving the five-millennia-old artistic traditions of China in a welcome letter to NTDTV. She said she has no doubt that the show will help further New York's great tradition of cultural richness.

She talks of the "sublime beauty" of the show. "From its intricate choreography to its ornate costuming, Shen Yun Performing Arts provides viewers world-wide with insight into Chinese mythology as well as scenes of sublime beauty," she writes.
