呐帮人在奥芬剧院以传统国乐的爵士旋律庆祝农历新年

当呐帮人 (Suona Gang) 于周一(1月27日)开始演奏第二首歌曲时,部分观众才意识到,这场在历史悠久的奥芬剧院举行的演出非比寻常。《New Clothing Addict(新衣成瘾)》由姜均的笙独奏揭开序幕,这是一种通常在传统国乐团中演奏的乐器。

Heroes of the Fourth Turning

《第四转折的英雄》挑战对特朗普选民的刻板印象

John Murphy 指出,「左派自由派」常将特朗普的支持者视为一群未受过良好教育的乡巴佬。然而,这位温哥华剧场艺术家渴望透过执导 Will Arbery 的戏剧《Heroes of the Fourth Turning(第四转折的英雄)》来挑战这种假设。剧中的五位角色都是受过良好教育的特朗普选民,他们在辩论政治议题时展现出与自由派知识分子同样激烈的思辨能力。

Mama Yang

杨妈妈在《爱子归来》中展现何谓人性

杨妈妈宛如一位走出陀思妥耶夫斯基小说的角色。就像《白痴》中的梅什金公爵,她展现了基督信仰中「爱邻如己」的理想。但不同的是,杨妈妈并非虚构人物,而是一位住在纽约的高龄移民寡妇。台湾导演李靖惠在她细腻的纪录片《Come Home, My Child(爱子归来)》中,记录了杨妈妈的真实人生。

Jade Music Fest 音乐人录制《过年在这》,并发布音乐影片迎接农历新年

当温哥华音乐人乐凡 (Van Lefan) 在台湾长大时,农历新年是一个「非常」重要的节日。亲戚们会来访,甚至从远方赶来,因为农历新年假期通常会持续一整个星期。「我们会聚在一起,进行各种传统的庆祝活动,」乐凡在 Zoom 上告诉《Pancouver》。「即使我的父母现在住在这里,跟大家族一起庆祝的感觉还是完全不同。」

LunarFest 温哥华:呐帮人重新诠释传统中国乐器,迈向21世纪

下个月初,一群台湾音乐家将于固兰湖岛 (Granville Island) 巡演,演奏一种双簧高音的管乐器。唢呐 (suona) 通常与台湾的丧礼和其他传统仪式相关联。但充满活力且带有一点淘气的呐帮人 (Suona Gang),正重新诠释这种圆锥形乐器,为现代观众带来新鲜感。

The Society of We Are Canadians Too created Pancouver to foster greater appreciation for underrepresented artistic communities. A rising tide of understanding lifts all of us.

We would like to acknowledge that we are gathered on the traditional and unceded territories of the Coast Salish peoples of the xʷməθkwəy̓əm (Musqueam Indian Band), Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish Nation), and Səl̓ílwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh Nation). With this acknowledgement, we thank the Indigenous peoples who still live on and care for this land.
