The third annual Chinese New Year concert, The Sound of Spring, presented by the US-China Music Institute of the Bard College Conservatory of Music, is a celebration of one of the most important holidays in the Lunar calendar -- a time for enjoying friends and family and looking ahead to the bright future of a new year. This is a truly authentic Chinese New Year concert with a program of Chinese music performed by Bard’s The Orchestra Now, joined by a select group of top vocal and instrumental artists, and showcasing the wonderful diversity and artistry of Chinese symphonic music.
Highlights include the spectacular Yellow River piano concerto, performed by rising star Ju Xiaofu; the gorgeous Apsaras of the Silk Road for pipa and orchestra, featuring NY-based pipa soloist Zhou Yi; and the delightful operatic medley From Jasmine to Turandot, which combines Puccini’s famous Chinese-influenced opera score with the main source of his inspiration, the popular folk song Jasmine Flower.
中国新年是家人与朋友欢聚一堂，展望新春未来的重要节日。巴德美中音乐研习院第三届“春之声” 中国新年音乐会重返林肯中心舞台，将原汁原味、最具中国味儿的纯正中国新年音乐会带给纽约的观众朋友。
蔡金冬执棒巴德当代乐团，声乐、京剧与中国民族乐器表演艺术家与西方交响乐团同台演绎中国音乐经典，呈现中国交响乐的多样性与艺术性。
音乐会将呈现由青年钢琴家鞠小夫演奏的壮丽的《黄河》钢琴协奏曲，纽约琵琶演奏家周懿弹奏的精美的《丝路飞天》琵琶协奏曲，更有歌曲《从茉莉花到图兰朵》彰显江苏民歌《茉莉花》和普契尼“歌剧版茉莉花”之间的东西文化碰撞。
