À propos

We will play three classical Chinese traditional guzheng pieces, "National Music of the Prosperous Age", "Spring River Moonlight Night" and "Lanting Preface". Many of the students/performers were born here or have lived in Canada for most of their lives. We offer an environment for kids to understand Chinese culture through music.

"Spring River Moonlight Night" is a representative of Han classical folk music. Formerly known as "Sunset Flute and Drum", it describes the moonlit night on the Xunyang (Jiujiang) River, praising the magnificence of the mountains and rivers of the motherland and expressing the people's love for the motherland. The artistic conception is profound and the music is long. Later, it was renamed after the famous Tang poem "Spring River Moonlight Night". With a softer melody and a peaceful mood, it depicts the beautiful scenery of the world: the evening drum sends off the sunset, and the sound of the flute welcomes the evening of the full moon; people paddle in a light boat, rippling on the spring river; the green mountains on both sides are stacked, and the branches of flowers play with shadows; the moon is reflected in the waves on the water, and the oars add sound...
