紐英崙音樂學院喬登廳，舉行一場以水為主的”青雲綠水集”音樂會文人陸惠風教授為此音樂做的序言 ”水的隨想曲”中提到:"水在中西文化中,都是謎一般的課題。創世紀第一句中說:「起初上帝創造天地,..上帝的靈,運行在水面上。」,沒有說,上帝創造了水。引起我們無限的聯想。戰國時代的簡牘上說:「太一生水」太一在創造萬物以前,先創造了水! 水是所有生命的泉源。"..."老子把水與人性並提：「上善若水」。孔子把水比做時間。莊子把水比做神靈。一般人，都曾經把水比做自己的心情。驚濤裂岸，捲起千堆雪！是許多人生的寫照。"...
"水的深意，從水深火熱到浪平水靜，是無數人今天的心聲！"...
"文字與語言永遠不能表達如水深情。請大家細會這場音樂會的深意。"

Quotes from
Preface for "Autumn Water"
by Waifong Loh
Reflections on
Water
"Water
has been a fascinating topic ever since antiquity. Genesis starts
with -- the spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters
--before God created light. "
"The
Greeks consider water as the origin of all things. In many
cultures, the word marine (sea or water) and the word mother
(ma) sharing the same phonation could not be coincidental.
"
"In
Chinese (Taoist) philosophy, it is water that flows, fills, swirls, and
floods. It is water that changes and shapes all beings quietly and
stormily. It is water that creates and describes nature itself.
"
水的隨想曲 惠風
"水在中西文化中,都是謎一般的課題。創世紀第一句中說:「起初上帝創造天地,..上帝的靈,運行在水面上。」,沒有說,上帝創造了水。引起我們無限的聯想。中國戰國時代的簡牘上說:「太一生水」太一在創造萬物以前,先創造了水!
水是所有生命的泉源。"
"中國最古老的甲骨文字中,殷代帝王最關心的事。除了祭祀天、社、與先祖,還要祭祀雨水與河。"
"老子把水與人性並提：「上善若水」。孔子把水比做時間。莊子把水比做神靈。河伯與海神的比喻，華麗雄渾。擴人心胸。一般人，都曾經把水比做自己的心情。驚濤裂岸，捲起千堆雪！是許多人生的寫照。"
"水的深意，從水深火熱到浪平水靜，是無數人今天的心聲！"
"文字與語言永遠不能表達如水深情。
請大家細會這場音樂會的深意。"

Cambridge Chinese Choral Society (CCCS), the premier Chinese-language choral group in the Greater Boston area, presents its 2020 New Year Concert. Our music Director, Dr. Yufen Yen, will lead CCCS to perform its 2020 New Year Concert “Home Is Where the Heart Is”, painting a picture of what “home” is to our members and audience through a heartwarming selection of choral music on themes of family, friendship, and community. The program will feature many contemporary compositions revolving around these themes, including “The Seal Lullaby”, “Glow”, and “This Marriage” by the well-known choral composer Eric Whitacre. The Gregorian chant-inspired “Ubi Caritas” by Ola Gjeilo reflects upon our love for each other and for God, while “Please Stay” by Jake Runestad provides a powerful reminder that we can all make a difference to those around us battling their inner demons. CCCS has also selected songs popularized by the Shanghai Rainbow Chamber Singers, such as the heartwarming remembrance in “Grandma” and the inner dialogue of a secret crush in “I Like”. Regardless of what “home” is to you, “Home is Where the Heart Is” is definitely the concert of the year that you do not want to miss!
Date/Time: Saturday Jan 18th, 7:30pm
Location: United Parish Brookline
(210 Harvard St., Brookline, MA 02446).
Tickets: $10 early bird, $15 regular.
