Flowers bloom——2012 Alberta Spring Festival Gala (contributed by Yang Jiqun) The annual Alberta Spring Festival Gala always brings a fresh and lively impression to people, allowing them to enjoy a rich cultural and artistic performance of the motherland, which is refreshing and refreshing. The author has learned from reliable sources that on January 21, 2012 (the 29th of the lunar calendar), the Alberta Spring Festival Gala will be held again at the Chandler Center For The Arts. This evening party will be jointly hosted by the New Oriental School of the Arts, the ASU Confucius Institute, the Tucson Chinese Voice Choir, the Spanish American Overseas Chinese Newspaper and other units. It has a large lineup and novel programs. It is a literary and artistic feast dedicated to Chinese people in Alberta to celebrate the most solemn traditional festival in China - the Spring Festival. For this performance, the organizer has made careful preparations for nearly half a year and strives to present a brand-new play to the audience. New Oriental Art School has a lineup of hundreds of actors from Han, Tibetan, Qiang, Dai, Yi, and other Chinese ethnic dances. In order to create a festive atmosphere for a joyful New Year, the entire party incorporated chorus, solo singing, children's chorus, instrumental music, and other programs to form a dazzling Chinese culture and art feast. I remember that at last year’s Spring Festival Gala, Chen Si, a solo dancer from the New Oriental Art School, took us to the distant bamboo forest of Xishuangbanna among the green pines and cypresses with his beautiful dance "The Spirit of the Bird", which seemed to allow us to see the stunning peacocks dancing by the beautiful Lijiang River. At this year's Spring Festival Gala, she put on stage "Moonlight" by famous dancer Yang Liping. Angela Zhang, Tina Peng, Jinnie Xie, Sophie Lu, etc., several outstanding students of the New Oriental Art School who have studied Chinese dance since childhood, will present the audience with refreshing and graceful dances in the form of singles, pairs, and trios. The audience may still remember the many performances of the adult dance class of the New Oriental Art School. Their uniform dance steps and mature and graceful performances left a deep impression on the audience. This time they challenged themselves to perform the more difficult Han dance on the stage. What is even more surprising is the addition of the male adult class. They will be on stage for the first time and will give you a surprise. Let us wait and see. Friends, we are in a foreign country and cannot celebrate our most solemn traditional festival, the Spring Festival, in our hometown. It is a rare opportunity to have the opportunity to get together as a family and watch our own Chinese Spring Festival Gala. Let us be happy and lively and have a happy Spring Festival. Please remember: 2012 Alberta Spring Festival Gala Time: January 21, 2012 (Saturday) Location: Chandler Center For The Arts 250 N Arizona Ave Chandler AZ 85225 Ticketing Contact: New Oriental Art School 1100 N Alma School Rd #18 (same square as Blue Sky Restaurant) Chandler AZ 85224
