龙回福地留金彩,蛇跃新春绘锦图。

2025年1月17日(农历腊月18),家和美长者联谊会在加拿大密西沙加市山谷市民活动中心礼堂举办了“迎新春汇演”,有100多位会员和华人朋友喜气洋洋地参加了这次活动。

这是一个难得的好天,在这之前的几天里,密西沙加及周边地区,一直是阴云密布,有时小雪飘飘,有时大雪漫天,气温低到零下十几度,北风劲吹,寒气逼人。今天,天空晴朗,风和日丽,上午8点,气温转到零上,路上冰雪消融,室外空气清新怡人。真是天公作美,在新春来临之际,助力这次华人欢庆佳节活动!

距离9点30分演出开始还有一个多小时的时间,笔者就看到演职人员提早来到演出场地,开始了演出前的准备工作。Jack会长在调试音响并作现场指挥调度,两名男子在精心地挂着会标,几个人在排摆椅子、布置演出场地,更多的人则是在各个休息室换演出服装、化妆。

她们(他们)穿上各式各样的、漂亮的演出服装。有的节目组还抓紧时间进行上场前的排练。身着各式演出服装的演员们个个情绪饱满,英姿勃勃,精神焕发,楚楚动人。她们进进出出,说说笑笑,造型拍照,好不热闹!真是一个和和美美的大家庭!虽然演员们大多是长者,但在此时,她们身上却洋溢着青春的活力,就像歌中唱的那样:你看那白发的婆婆,挺起那腰板也像十七、八。

家和美长者联谊会为生活在密西沙加市及周边城镇的华裔长者朋友们提供了这个的活动平台,让大家每个星期都有机会走出家门,唱歌、跳舞、太极,演奏乐器,培养每个人的兴趣、爱好,在异国他乡寻找快乐、幸福的生活品质、构成加拿大和美的多元社会氛围!

演出场地经过精心的布置,三面摆上桌椅,围成观众席,正面挂着“家和美长者联谊会”大幅会标,红底透白字,非常醒目,两边挂着喜庆的红灯笼,几把艳丽的小花伞衬托着节日的氛围。

加拿大各级政府非常重视这次活动,加拿大国会议员、安省议员、密市议员都参加了活动并登台致辞,Happy New Year! 祝福加拿大华人春节快乐!在现场一片掌声中,他们把加拿大各级政府的贺信送给了Jack会长。

Jack会长致辞,祝福各位朋友蛇年吉祥,幸福安康!

汇演开始的第一个节目是开场舞——《欢庆》,18名美女演员分为三拨,6人红衣白裤,蓝边绘金坎肩,红绸扎头,斜跨腰鼓,鼓槌上飘着长长的红绸飘带;6人粉裙白鞋,古装服饰,手舞由黄渐红的彩带;还有6人手拿红灯笼。她们身姿矫健,动作轻盈,随着乐曲翻身跳跃,舞彩绸,抖出气魄;跨箭步,豪迈奔放,伴随着欢快的节奏,舞动天地、气势磅礴!演出效果那叫一个震撼!

太极拳表演,20多人的团队集体亮相,表演者动作流畅自然,刚柔相济,柔中带刚,刚中含柔,既有力量,又有美感,让人感到心旷神怡。配乐《梁祝》,音调悠扬,撼天动地。

女生小合唱《为了和平》等歌曲,Elsa Hsieh电子琴伴奏兼领指挥,9位演员配合默契,时而高亢激昂,时而深情款款,将歌曲的情感传递给了观众。
乐器联奏《男儿当自强》等曲子,在保留节目中有所创新。乐队阵容扩大,特别是管弦乐突出,气势磅礴、豪迈大气,震动人心。乐队队员娴熟的演技和默契的配合,使得几首经典乐曲自然连接,珠联璧合,给人以听觉上的享受
新疆舞《一杯美酒》,藕荷色裙子,金饰腰带,新疆少数民族特色小帽下留有很多的小辫子。三名演员舞步优美奔放,充满活力,一招一式,美人美舞,维吾尔族风情味十足。
团扇舞《寻遍千山只为你》,多少儿女情,自古伤别离,月光映流溪、君归是何期?《寻遍千山只为你》,柔美抒情的古典团扇舞,风韵优雅,
二胡独奏《赛马》,演奏者熟练运用顿弓、连顿弓等演奏技巧,展现出乐曲的多层次性,将民歌的旋律与现代元素相结合,表现出独特的音乐境地。奔放热烈的旋律,描绘出了蒙古族文化的独特韵味。

双人太极扇《走进新时代》,男女演员伴随悠扬的曲调、用扇子演绎最美的舞蹈,欢快大气。太极与扇,穿越千年,豪情与气势,尽藏舞扇间!这种兼具健身与艺术的运动方式,完全是中国功夫武术魂,一招一式,展示出文化的自信。

乐队演奏《万泉河水清又清》,万泉河水清又清,我编斗笠送红军,军爱民来民拥军,军民团结一家亲、一家亲。乐曲演奏优美动听,伴舞演员手捧斗笠翩翩起舞。笔者注意到伴舞中的男演员(党代表)多次以不同角色出场跳舞,很是辛苦!

管乐重奏《斯卡布罗集市》,“洋范”白色礼服,一个黑管,一个铜笛,一个吹管,三者默契配合,其旋律优美且凄美婉转,音符简单却组成了触动心灵的曲调,带着淡淡的怅惘,让人沉浸在一种难以言表的凄美感之中。

歌伴舞《画你》,醉人的歌声,优美的舞蹈!男女演员的藏族服饰非常正宗、得体,男演员歌声浑厚嘹亮,表演自然,不时与观众互动,很有亲和力。两位女演员藏族舞蹈跳的那叫一个地道,一招一式,舒展大气,极富感染力!

藏族舞《金色的阳光》,嘎啦亚西诺诺,照到了雪山上, 依啦强吧诺诺!用灵动如风的身姿 释放夏日积蓄的热情,舞蹈动作优美、舞姿婀娜多姿。只是三个戴船型帽的舞蹈演员,笔者没怎么看懂,算作是创新吧?

筷子舞《“筷”乐草原》,这是蒙古族的一大特色舞蹈,舞蹈以筷子为道具展现了独特文化的魅力。上场演员一身蓝色藏族服装,白色长靴,灵活运用手中红穗的筷子,翩翩起舞,展现出舞者优美的身姿和节奏感。

太极剑《我爱你塞北的雪》,伴随着优美的曲调,演员们手舞太极剑,美如清风摆柳,行云流水,流畅之中尽显飘逸,自然之中尽展柔美。果然是动静相兼,刚柔相济。

彝族舞《索玛花》,整台演出的压轴节目,演员服饰与彝族节日盛装相同且豪华靓丽,"索玛花儿开开,索玛花儿落落",原生态的歌舞表演,给人一种震撼的效果。

两个多小时的演出落下了帷幕,沉浸在欢乐中的人们依依不舍地挥手道别,互道珍重!

Jiahemay Senior Association held a “New Year Gala"

Fu Bo

The dragon returns to the blessed land and leaves gold, and the snake jumps to draw a brocade picture for the new year.

On January 17, 2025 (the 18th day of the twelfth lunar month), Jiahemay Senior  Association held a “New Year Gala" in the auditorium of the Valley Citizen Activity Center in Mississauga, Canada. More than 100 members and Chinese friends participated in the event happily.

This is a rare good day. In the past few days, Mississauga and surrounding areas have been overcast, sometimes with light snow, sometimes heavy snow, the temperature is as low as minus ten degrees, the north wind is blowing, and the cold is pressing. Today, the sky is clear, the wind is fine, and at 8 o’clock in the morning, the temperature turns above zero, the ice and snow on the road melt, and the outdoor air is fresh and pleasant. It is really a good day. At the coming of the New Year, it helps the Chinese celebrate the festival!
They put on all kinds of beautiful costumes. Some program groups also took the time to rehearse before going on stage. The actors in various costumes were full of emotions, heroic, energetic, and charming. They went in and out, talked and laughed, and took photos. It was so lively! What a harmonious and beautiful family! Although most of the actors are elders, at this time, they are full of youthful vitality, just like the song says: Look at the white-haired grandmother, she looks like seventeen or eighteen when she straightens her back.

Jiahemei Elderly Association provides this activity platform for Chinese elders living in Mississauga and surrounding towns, so that everyone has the opportunity to go out of the house every week, sing, dance, play musical instruments, cultivate everyone’s interests and hobbies, find a happy and happy quality of life in a foreign country, and form a harmonious and beautiful diverse social atmosphere in Canada!

The performance venue has been carefully arranged, with tables and chairs placed on three sides to form an audience seat. A large logo of the “Jiahemay Senior Association" is hung on the front, with white letters on a red background, which is very eye-catching. Festive red lanterns are hung on both sides, and a few bright small flower umbrellas set off the festive atmosphere.
Governments at all levels in Canada attach great importance to this event. Canadian MPs, Ontario MPs, and Mississauga MPs all attended the event and gave speeches on stage. Happy New Year! Wishing Chinese Canadians a Happy Spring Festival! Amid applause, they sent congratulatory letters from governments at all levels in Canada to President Jack.

President Jack gave a speech, wishing all friends a prosperous Year of the Snake, happiness and well-being!

The first program at the beginning of the show was the opening dance – “Celebration". 18 beautiful actresses were divided into three groups. Six of them wore red shirts and white pants, blue-edged gold waistcoats, red silk tied their heads, and waist drums were worn diagonally. Long red silk ribbons floated on the drumsticks; six of them wore pink skirts and white shoes, ancient costumes, and danced with ribbons that gradually changed from yellow to red; and six of them held red lanterns. They were agile and light-footed. They jumped and turned with the music, danced with colorful silk, and shook out their spirit; they took arrow steps, were bold and unrestrained, and danced with the cheerful rhythm, moving the world with great momentum! The performance was so shocking!

Tai Chi performance, a team of more than 20 people appeared together, the performers’ movements were smooth and natural, hard and soft, soft with hard, hard with soft, both powerful and beautiful, making people feel relaxed and happy. The background music “Butterfly Lovers" was melodious and earth-shaking.

Model dance “Apple Fragrance", 11 actors wearing printed black long skirts, wearing beautiful necklaces of various styles, dignified and beautiful, dynamic and fashionable model steps, all in the style of the Chinese nation! A black cheongsam shows the elegant and noble temperament.

The female chorus sang songs such as “For Peace", accompanied by Elsa Hsieh’s electronic piano and led the conductor. The 9 actors cooperated tacitly, sometimes high-pitched and passionate, sometimes affectionate, and conveyed the emotions of the song to the audience.

The instrumental ensemble “Men Should Be Self-reliant" and other songs have been innovated in the reserved programs. The band lineup has been expanded, especially the orchestral music is outstanding, magnificent, heroic and atmospheric, and shocking. The band members’ skilled acting skills and tacit cooperation make several classic songs naturally connected, perfect, and give people auditory enjoyment

Xinjiang dance “A Cup of Wine", lotus-colored skirt, gold belt, and many small braids under the Xinjiang ethnic minority hat.  The three performers danced gracefully and unrestrainedly, full of vitality, and every move was beautiful and full of Uyghur style.

The round fan dance “Searching for you in the mountains" shows how many young men and women have been sad about separation since ancient times. When will you return home when the moonlight shines on the stream? “Searching for you in the mountains" is a soft and lyrical classical round fan dance with elegant charm.
Erhu solo “Horse Racing", the performer skillfully uses the playing techniques such as staccato and continuous staccato to show the multi-layered nature of the music, combining the melody of folk songs with modern elements, showing a unique musical realm. The unrestrained and passionate melody depicts the unique charm of Mongolian culture.

Double Tai Chi Fan “Entering the New Era", male and female actors perform the most beautiful dance with fans accompanied by melodious tunes, cheerful and grand. Tai Chi and fans, across thousands of years, passion and momentum, are all hidden in the dancing fans! This kind of exercise that combines fitness and art is completely the soul of Chinese Kung Fu martial arts, and every move shows cultural confidence.

The band played “The Water of Wanquan River is Clear and Clear", the water of Wanquan River is clear and clear, I weave a hat to send to the Red Army, the army loves the people and the people support the army, the army and the people are united as one family, one family. The music is beautiful and pleasant, and the dancers dance with hats in their hands. The author noticed that the male actors (party representatives) in the dance accompaniment danced many times in different roles, which was very hard!

The brass ensemble “Scarborough Fair" was performed in a “foreign" white dress. A clarinet, a brass flute, and a blowpipe were played in perfect harmony. The melody was beautiful and poignant. The simple notes formed a tune that touched the soul, with a touch of melancholy, making people immersed in an indescribable poignancy.

The song and dance “Painting You" was performed with intoxicating singing and beautiful dancing! The Tibetan costumes of the male and female actors were very authentic and decent. The male actor had a deep and loud singing voice, performed naturally, interacted with the audience from time to time, and was very friendly. The two female actors performed Tibetan dances in an authentic way. Every move was relaxed and full of appeal!
Tibetan dance “Golden Sunshine", Gala Yasino Nono, shines on the snow-capped mountains, Yila Qiangba Nono! Use the agile posture like the wind to release the passion accumulated in summer, the dance moves are beautiful and the dance posture is graceful. It’s just three dancers wearing boat-shaped hats. The author didn’t understand it very well. Is it considered innovation?

Chopstick dance “Chopsticks Enjoy the Grassland" is a special dance of the Mongolian people. The dance uses chopsticks as props to show the charm of unique culture. The actors on stage are dressed in blue Tibetan costumes and white boots. They flexibly use the chopsticks with red tassels in their hands to dance gracefully, showing the dancers’ graceful posture and sense of rhythm.

Tai Chi sword “I love the snow in the north of the Great Wall", accompanied by beautiful tunes, the actors dance Tai Chi swords, beautiful like the breeze swaying willows, flowing like clouds and water, showing elegance in the smoothness, and showing softness in the nature. It is indeed a combination of movement and stillness, and hardness and softness.

The Yi dance “Soma Flower" is the finale of the whole performance. The actors’ costumes are the same as the Yi festival costumes and are luxurious and beautiful. “Soma flowers bloom, Soma flowers fall", the original song and dance performance gives people a shocking effect.

The more than two-hour performance came to an end. People immersed in joy waved goodbye reluctantly and said goodbye to each other!

After the “New Year’s Gala", everyone in the Jiahemay Senior Association group spoke and congratulated the Jiahemay Senior Association for the success of this event! Many videos and photos taken on the spot were also posted.

Everyone sincerely felt that joining the Jiahemay Senior Association family will make life more harmonious, happy and fulfilling!

Today, December 4, the jiahemay senior Association was invited to participate in the Christmas lunch held by the community. The scene was full of festive joy and warmth.

The arrival of Santa Claus made the atmosphere even more lively. He took photos with everyone and sent good wishes. Then, the familiar Christmas melody sounded, and everyone sang songs spontaneously, and the songs echoed in the venue.

The rich food and joyful atmosphere made people feel satisfied. Members used the camera to record countless beautiful moments. Every photo was full of joy and captured sincere emotions.

Thanks to the community’s careful preparation, we spent an unforgettable day in laughter and singing.
