    古琴作为中国传统文化的瑰宝,承载着丰富的历史和文化内涵。古琴在中国传统文化体系中不仅是一种音乐类属,而且关涉着形之上下的诸多范畴。琴史的脉络不只反映古琴功能、流派等的嬗变,还承载着礼乐意志,蕴藏士人心态观念的幽微寄寓,古琴,可谓中国传统人文精神的重要载体。本课程希望会通以上方面,提供全面了解古琴文化的视阈,提升综合人文修养。

    通过逐步的古琴的音乐演奏,掌握古琴演奏的气息与表现方式。随着深入学习,选曲风格将极具特色。无论技法还是情感意境表达都迥然不同。需深刻理解曲意,左右手指法娴熟,轻重缓急、吟猱绰注等细节处理得当。此学习需表达自己对琴曲的理解及精神追求。培养音乐审美和表现能力,同时掌握音乐创作能力,可以通过音乐创作和演奏,激发自己的创造力和想象力,将各种妙处尽汇于此,达到天人合一、物我两忘的境界。

    CCC BUILDING RENOVATION FUNDRAISING CAPITAl CAMPAIGN/华社翻修改造工程筹集善款

    CCC Building Renovation Fundraising Campaign

    The Chinese Community Center (CCC) was founded in 1973 and serves over 10,000 Chinese Americans in the Capital Region. Since its grand opening in 2006, generations of Chinese, Chinese Americans and non Chinese who are interested in Chinese language and culture have been celebrating and bonding in the current building located on 11 Avis Dr, Latham.

    Post pandemic, CCC has evolved into one of the major multi-culture ambassadors in the Capital Region.  During 2024 Lunar New Year, CCC performed 10 Lunar New Year and multi-culture events during the 2 months of the festival period, including 3 libraries ( Colonie, Guilderland, Clifton Park), 3 elementary school (Forts Ferry, Boght Hill, Woodland Hill Montessori), and 2 high schools (Albany High, Schenectady High) along with a Lunar New Year Art Exhibition.

    In addition to its Sunday Chines School, CCC also operates 10 on going weekly activities and clubs:  3 dance clubs including (Folk dance, Square dance, Tai Chi Fa), Math club for grade K-10, Calligraphy class, Ping Pong Club, Body sculpture club, CCC choirs and CCC Peking Opera Academy. We also work closely with other local organizations including Festival of Nations, ICCR, Capital District Chamber of Commerce and APAPA. CCC received “Global Citizenship” award from ICCR in 2023.

    CCC also celebrates most of the traditional Chinese holidays such as Lantern festival, Dragon Boat festival and Moon Cake Festival. Our Lunar New Year Show in the Egg was a sold out show and 45% of attendees were non Chinese. A CCC Year Of the Dragon Show 1 min recap can be seen at this link: https://youtu.be/lfqGCb0cjBg

    With its growing number of members and its ongoing activities and events, CCC needs to conduct a major building renovation, so that we can better utilize the space for our growing needs that serve the thousands of people who participate in  CCC activities and events in our building every year.  The estimate to this project cost round up to $100,000. Our plan is to raise funds this year and complete the renovation project from June to August next summer.

    Plan for Building renovation include:

        Remove four weight bearing columns and change them to iron beam

        Move Executive Office to the back corner, combine the current office space with the  Hall space

        Change current ceiling/pipes/lighting design, raise ceiling up.

        Add a storage room, remove the half walls in children s area

        install lighting for art exhibition and performances.

    CCC plans to apply for government funding at all levels. At the same time, CCC calls on all people to donate to the renovation project. Donation at any amount will be appreciated. Individuals, or couples who jointly donate $500 or more can be listed on the CCC’s donation wall forever.

    Company match donations are welcome too.

    Chinese Community Center Peking Academy student registration openSponsored by The Art Center of the Capital Region ):

    Peking Opera as a unique form of art was established over 230 years ago by Emperor Qianlong and has been cherished in mainland China, Taiwan and Hong Kong ever since. The performances fell into two main categories – “wen”, or civil theater, which focused on love, marriage and other civilian concerns, and wu", or military theater, which revolved around the theme of war and was known for featuring thrilling acrobatic feats. Traditionally female are not allowed on stage, nowadays roles can be played by anyone.

    CCC Peking Opera Academy was established in March 2023.  Since then our group has performed in CCC 50th Anniversary Gala, which was reported upon by various TV stations and The Times Union. This year the first semester program is being kindly sponsored by The Art Center of the Capital Region.

    Teacher Linghui Tu is a Chinese National Tier-One Performer. She has won the 4th Plum Blossom Award and the 1st Wenhua Performance Award, the highest level award in Chinese Theatre in China. She is a professor of the National Academy of Chinese Theater Arts and served as the director of the Operative Art Education Centre and Continuing Education Department. She has studied and performed Chinese opera for 50 years in various countries. Tu has also directed Chinese operas, among which two have been awarded Class-One Performance Awards. She is a teacher in the Center for Theater Arts Collaboration at Binghamton University and participated on tours and other cultural activities. She graciously accepted the invitation of the Chinese Community Center of the Capital Region and is willing to drive long distance once every week to come here over to teach.
