An expert demonstration class of the Spring Bud Dream Chorus project was jointly held by the China Children and Teenagers' Fund (CCTF) and the FAW Audi in the No.3 Primary School of Xinzhou Town, in Huangping, a county of Qiandongnan Miao and Dong Autonomous Prefecture in Southwest China's Guizhou Province, from December 12 to 13.
During the two-day class, specially invited experts gave lectures to 40 Spring Bud girls from different places of Guizhou and over 60 music teachers from Huangping.
Those in attendance of the opening ceremony included representatives of the CCTF, Guizhou Women and Children's Activity Center, the FAW Audi and the artistic guidance committee.
In their classes, the experts gave explanations and demonstration of the singing styles and techniques of ethnic minority songs, helped students master vocalization methods and singing skills, and shared with local music teachers about teaching experience and typical cases of other places to further improve the teaching quality.
Additionally, Lei Bangyan, an inheritor of Miao ethnic group's intangible cultural heritage, communicated with the children and helped them understand the Miao ethnic culture and the origin of folk singing.
The experts and students also visited Shanping, a village in Gulong Town, to experience the unique charm of Miao ethnic culture and drew inspiration from local children's songs in the composition of their future work.
So far, the FAW Audi Fund has set up 16 Spring Bud Dream Chorus teams in 15 provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities. In the years to come, the CCTF will work together with the auto maker to implement the public welfare initiative in more ethnic minority areas, discover the music talent of local girls, help them enjoy and grow up with music, and better deliver the beautiful voice of China.
