Beijing, China - Oct 22, 2026 (CCTV - No access Chinese mainland)
1. Various of chorus, flag formation performance of gala titled "Ode to the Long March," which commemorates 90th anniversary of victory of Red Army's Long March, in progress


A stirring choral performance and well-drilled flag formation brought the spirit of the historic Long March to life on stage during a televised gala commemorating the 90th anniversary of the victory of the Red Army's Long March on Thursday.

The Long March (1934-1936) was a defining military maneuver undertaken by the Chinese Workers' and Peasants' Red Army, symbolizing endurance and perseverance which ultimately paved the way for the founding of the People's Republic of China in 1949.

Titled "Ode to the Long March," the five-part gala broadcast by the China Media Group (CMG) centers on key historical junctures of the arduous 12,500-kilometer journey.

Dressed in the distinctive uniforms of the Red Army during that historic period, gala performers chanted lines from the famous poem "The Long March," their voices rising as flags surged and rippled across the stage.

Penned by Mao Zedong in October 1935, the verse recounts the countless hardships and obstacles the Red Army overcame during its arduous trek, conveying a fighting spirit filled with revolutionary optimism.

Integrating music, dance, drama, and folk art, the performances at the Gala vividly recall the immense hardships the Red Army endured and showcase the firm beliefs held by the Communist Party of China (CPC), even in the face of sacrifice and suffering.

The broadcast followed a commemorative meeting held earlier on Thursday at the Great Hall of the People in Beijing, where Chinese President Xi Jinping delivered an important speech.

The Long March began in October 1934, when 86,000 poorly armed soldiers began a grueling 12,500-kilometer journey across some of the country's harshest terrain to establish a new revolutionary base. The march concluded in October 1936 when three main Red Army forces converged in northwestern China.
