Another Dimension Beyond Stereotype  

Pranava, also known as "the sound of the universe," symbolizes the gathering of all energy in a sound. With sci-fi blue as the dominant tone, the venue resembled the vast universe, thus mirroring the theme of the event.

In order to better present the theme, the stage design highlighted technologies, lighting and the latest, giant 3-D LED cube. The effects were magnificent, transforming the arena into a new dimension in the Pranava universe.  

Wrapped in a gigantic, fantastic "bead curtain" projection screen, the figure of the glamorous Sandy, standing in the middle of the sphere, looked much like Mother Earth herself. The stage effects were truly stunning.

Surrounded by diva's captivating voice, the crowd's enthusiasm reached a pinnacle with hot songs and dancing

At 7 p.m., as the stage lighting slowly came up, the audience members began to scream with excitement, although the diva hadn't yet appeared. All awaited the appearance of Sandy, and they shouted her name over and over.

After a short opening video, Sandy Lam launched into the 2016 Sandy Lam Pranava Tour Concert in Guangzhou with the award-winning hit "Gaia."

To everyone’s amazement, Sandy danced to three songs in a row, and the audience enjoyed every minute. Despite the strenuous choreography, the diva's voice never wavered.

Reinterpreting "Run Down Beyond the Limit"

It wasn't difficult for the audience to discover that, in the first half of the Guangzhou concert, Sandy sang mainly in Cantonese, while the second half was interspersed with her greatest Mando-pop hits. Thus the arrangement catered not only to Guangzhou fans but also to those from other provinces, so that everyone could savor their favorites as if hearing them in amazement for the very first time.
