People like to use velvet to describe Liao Changyong's mellow voice, which is appropriate, warm, delicate, smooth and full of texture. He has great language talent, excellent language sense, fluent breath and unparalleled artistic appeal. He had a good grasp of Verdi's opera, and his whole body was full of Verdi's flavor, which made Kennedy Center crazy. Although he has been well-known and has become a recognized artist of the world, he always cherishes deep feelings for his motherland and hometown. (daily Gansu, Sina music, Washington Post)
