The Year of the Snake is coming to an end and the Year of the Horse is approaching. For Chinese people who have lived overseas for a long time, the atmosphere during the Spring Festival cannot be compared with that at home. We don’t have a long holiday during the New Year, there’s no sound of firecrackers in thousands of households, and we can’t reunite with all our relatives. What we can do is to get together and celebrate our own traditional festival - the Spring Festival. "Watching the Spring Festival Gala" is one of the most important activities for Chinese people to celebrate the Spring Festival. New Oriental Art School has been shouldering the important task of creating the Alberta Spring Festival Gala for many years. Currently, New Oriental Art School is working together with the Confucius Institute and many other units to present a cultural feast for the Spring Festival of the Year of the Horse to the Yaya Province Year of the Horse Spring Festival Gala. This party is a comprehensive art party integrating dance, instrumental music, vocal music, martial arts, etc. All dance programs are carefully created by teachers and students of New Oriental Art School. After months of choreography, the actors trained hard, and the teachers worked overtime, what is presented to the audience must be the best and most exciting. Among the dance programs, there is the "Xinjiang Bowl Dance" specially prepared for the Spring Festival Gala, sponsored and invited by Ms. Xu Aini and directed by the famous Hong Kong dancer Pasha Wumaner. Teacher Pasha used to be a solo dancer in the China Oriental Song and Dance Troupe and has many years of performance and teaching experience. I believe that the true teachings received by the students this time can bring artistic enjoyment and Spring Festival happiness to everyone. At this party, you will also enjoy vocal and instrumental music programs brought to you by the Alberta Chinese Orchestra. Currently, the actors and actresses, such as folk music and Peking opera, which are full of Chinese cultural elements, are entering the final sprint rehearsals led by teacher Cai Shangao. Please wait and see. Master Yan Qing of the Arizona Shaolin Cultural Center, in order to let the audience see the real Shaolin Kung Fu, specially invited brothers from the Shaolin Temple to join in the performance. The students carefully selected and trained by Master Yanqing are also eager to perform in the Spring Festival Gala. What will also surprise you is the participation of the famous violinist Zeng Jing. Zeng Jing, the first violinist from the Phoenix Symphony Orchestra, has performed in many concerts with world-renowned performers such as Yo-Yo Ma, Lang Lang, and Yundi Li. As an excellent violinist, she is well-known among the Chinese community in Phoenix. Zeng Jing will show off her talents on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala in the Year of the Horse. Christmas and New Year are coming soon, what gifts should Chinese friends give to their friends? Giving away a few tickets to the Spring Festival Gala should be a special choice. Not only can your relatives celebrate a Chinese New Year, but you can also let your American friends around you feel the cultural charm of our Chinese nation.
