加华合唱班歌舞午餐会举办成功

七月四日由加华合唱班牵头,在加华理事会的大力支持下, 在Brampton 翠豪中餐馆宴会厅,举办了一场午宴加歌舞的夏季假日聚会. 因报名者踊跃,参加者远超过预期达到84人. 参加者主要来自合唱班,国标舞, 乐器组等. 华人艺术团老团长张继荣夫妇也在我们中间. 这次宴会非常成功.

我们发现在宴会上桌上的美食已经不重要了,新老朋友相聚,愉快的交谈;唱歌发烧友们拿起话筒,放声高歌. 或使用自备伴奏音乐,或由乐队江波电子琴伴奏.合唱班徐岚老师亲自带领合唱班合唱一曲”送别”,. 连羽人演唱的”天路”以及和胡敏的男女生对唱”敖包相会”显示了他们的雄厚的唱歌功底.

加华从一开始就是多元文化的团体,我们听到不只有国语歌,还有粤语,闽南语. 舞蹈班的也大显身手,杨老师夫妇表演了精彩的波尔卡并在现场教授排舞; Jack和Wendy表演的特鲁巴和斗牛,舞蹈编排新颖活泼,江波的电子琴”民歌联奏”赢得了热烈的掌声. 但这次表演的主角不是他们,而是所有的参加者, 不论唱的好坏都可自由上场,每一个乐曲响起的时候,大家都会情不自禁上场随歌起舞, 轻歌曼舞把我们大家带到快乐的境界.

有人这样评价这次歌舞宴会,”让我们年轻了二十岁”,因这是属于我们自己的. 宴会从十二点一直到四点,时间到了,还有人恋恋不舍,并抓紧时间唱最后一曲. 这次活动要感谢Philo和小陈,他们热心,义务的去推动,组织,联络促成了这次活动,感谢合唱班他们在一起不只是学唱歌,而且和徐岚老师及相互之间建立了友谊.这是聚会的基础. 副会长Thomas 在筹备和落实参加人员上费了很多力气.江波的专业电子琴伴奏让大家情绪高昂, 汤大力带来电脑义务给大家播放音乐,有他们的义务奉献,是加华有能力办各种活动的原因.没有不散的宴席,但我们期待下一次会更好.
