At the press conference for the event, a cheerful Tan described the concert as an extension to the film itself, a way of deepening and extending the "oriental effect" of the film, and voiced his hope that the symphonic version of the Crouching Tiger music will still be played hundreds of years from now.
記者會上，風趣幽默的譚盾高興地表示，這場演奏會可說是電影《臥虎藏龍》的一種延續，希望能將電影帶來的東方效應達到更深更廣的影響，而改編成交響曲的臥虎藏龍，可以在五十年後，一百年後，甚至五百年後一再被演奏。
