On the evening of July 26th, the lights were shining brightly in Chaoyang District, Beijing, and a grand event that gathered the essence of traditional Chinese culture - the cheongsam cultural ceremony and guqin master concert (Taigu Legacy Special) was held here. The event was jointly planned by the Guqin Culture and Art Committee of the China Association for the Promotion of Cultural Tourism, the Beijing Association for the Promotion of Cross-Strait Non-governmental Exchanges, the Guqin Culture Research Association of the Beijing Music Association, the Taiwan Chinese Guqin Society, the Taiwan Cheongsam Association, etc., aiming to use the cheongsam as a medium to show the unique charm of Chinese culture through the integration of the cheongsam and other excellent traditional Chinese cultures such as the guqin, and deepen the cultural identity and emotional connection of compatriots on both sides of the strait.
More than 50 well-known pianists, artists and cheongsam lovers from both sides of the Taiwan Strait gathered together to present a wonderful cultural feast. In the first chapter "A Cloth with Water Will Meet Bosom Friends", cross-strait guqin masters Han Jie, Yuan Zhongping, Wu Han, Zhang Yating, Ni Shiyun, Chi Ying, Lin Fa and Chen Liru took turns to perform classic repertoire such as "Gull and Heron Forget the Machine", "Yangchun", "Yangguan Three Stacks" and so on. They met friends with the piano, conveyed their feelings with music, and the melodious sound of the piano traveled through time and space, bringing an ancient and poetic auditory enjoyment to the audience, and also highlighting the cultural integration and harmony of "one family on both sides of the strait".
In the second chapter, "Cross-Strait Comrades' Uniforms", the sitcom "Clothes and Pulses Connected to Cross-Strait Comrades" carefully created by Yu Shuangshuang's cheongsam cultural team presented the audience with a dazzling picture of the emotional integration of cross-strait cheongsam people and Chinese culture. In the play, artists Ge Qiang, Liu Dongmei and cheongsam cultural envoys from both sides of the strait walked side by side to perform a cross-strait cheongsam cultural feast. From the poetic feelings of "visiting friends with the piano" to the cultural resonance of "appreciating calligraphy and painting"; From the beauty of Zen in "tea tasting and music" to the agility and elegance of "dancing and flowers", every detail vividly depicts the Chinese philosophy of life that "cheongsam is a way of life, and everyone is an artist of life". The finale of the "Cross-Strait Uniforms" section showed the elegant charm of the cheongsam and the profound heritage of Chinese culture to the fullest, which moved the audience. The whole sitcom not only shows the elegance and charm of the cheongsam, but also profoundly highlights the deep friendship between compatriots on both sides of the strait and the common love and inheritance of Chinese culture.
The audience responded with warm applause and cheers for each program. They all said that this performance not only gave them a deep appreciation of the unique charm of cheongsam culture, but also made them truly feel the strong warmth and beautiful vision of "one family on both sides of the strait". This event is not only an audio-visual feast, but also a spiritual communication and emotional blending. More than 200 representatives of social associations and associations on both sides of the Taiwan Strait witnessed this beautiful moment of cross-strait cultural exchanges, and also witnessed the profound friendship between compatriots on both sides of the strait.
The organizers said that the complete success of this event has not only greatly enhanced the understanding and friendship between compatriots on both sides of the strait, but also played a positive role in promoting the inheritance and development of Chinese culture. Looking forward to the future, the organizers will uphold this original aspiration and continue to hold more colorful cultural exchange activities, promote in-depth cultural exchanges and integration between the two sides of the strait, work together to promote the prosperity and sustainable development of Chinese culture, and contribute to the great rejuvenation of Chinese civilization.
