From the United Nations Singers' Trip to China 2010. Directed by Guillermo Vaisman. Mo Li Hua (茉莉花), which means "Jasmine Flowers", is a popular Chinese folk song. It was created during the Qianlong Emperor period of the Qing Dynasty. The melody has become well known among Western listeners as it was included by Giacomo Puccini in his opera Turandot, where it is associated with "Turandot's splendour". An adaptation of the melody by Tan Dun was played during the medal ceremonies at the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games.
