钟中华乐团扬名海外。。。

东南亚的华文水平

  日前在网上看到马来西亚槟城钟灵国中华乐团演奏的几首民族器乐,其中一首是《美丽的凤尾竹》,另一首是《春》,编制非常整齐,整个乐队大约有四、五十人,仅仅大提琴就有三把,低音提琴就有两把,凭这个编制,就知道他们的水平如何了。

  第一首《美丽的凤尾竹》是他们参加马来西亚第七届华乐节的节目,他们凭这首乐曲荣获第二名。就声部来说,还算整齐,连一些色彩乐器他们也有,如果不是编制齐全,哪有巴乌这种乐器。在网上听了他们的演奏,可圈可点,十多岁的中学生,有此水平,难能可贵。

   在目前东南亚地区,就华文程度来说,大概是马来西亚最好,他们的水平可能比六十年代和七十年代期间菲律宾的中文水平还要高。别的不说,他们大学里有中文 系,我们就没有这样高的学府。就笔者接触到的马来西亚记者来看,虽然都是当地土生土长的,有的还是第四代、第五代华人,但是华文程度却令人刮目相看。

   为什么马来西亚华文程度一支独秀?可能有几方面的因素:第一,他们的华人人口多,过去占当地人口的三分之一,现在是四分之一,大约五、六百万人,几与香 港的人口一样多。第二,当地政府没有敌视华文学校的法令,因此,没有碰到我们一九七二年那次大灾难。第三,星马一向是华人聚居的地方,文化基础扎实,有着 顽强的生命力。顺便一提,现在马来西亚的文化水平甚至比新加坡还要高,李光耀七十年代限制华文发展,现在正自尝苦果。

  就以马来西亚华 乐来说,能够举办全国比赛,可见华乐在当地甚为发达,不然,小猫三只,还比赛什么?华乐蓬勃,说明学习的人多,学的人多,说明他们对中华文化的传承还相当 活跃。中华文化蓬勃发展,反过来说明他们华文程度发达。就以钟灵国中华乐队来说,他们的水平比我们六十和七十年代民乐团的水平还要高。这一点,是东南亚其 它国家应该向他们看齐的地方。(来源/菲律宾世界日报)

钟中华乐团发展史 History & Development of CLHSCO


钟 灵中学华乐团是槟岛最早成立的一个华乐团。 从成立至今已度过37 个年头了。在华乐团这个名字还未启用之前,本团原名为 “钟中华文学会中乐组”。 本团成立于1969 年, 是有一些本校老师创办的。 当年,本团的顾问是蔡伯龙先生, 梁润洲先生和吴鹤琴小姐, 而主席则为许汉如。 起初, 本团只有10多名团员, 而且当时又没有足够的乐器以及指导老师指导团员们, 导致几年后才有演出的机会。本团的乐器是由顾问老师以及老师们所供应的。

自70年代起, 团员们的演奏水准与日俱增, 而且团员的人数也不断地增加, 使本团迈入了一个新阶段, 成为本团的一个全盛期。 在1973年,本团团员已超过100人, 而且每一次的演出都得到各界人士的好评,为团争光不少。

本 团在1970年脱离了华文学会而改名为 “钟灵中学华乐团” 。 自1978年起,由于毕业生离开学校, 许多乐器的演奏技巧都已失传了, 而导致青黄不接的现象, 而最后只剩下吹管组。越是,本团就变成了笛子队。 在同时期里, 叶荣和校长知道本团的技术水准大不如前, 便把所有毕业生找回来指导新一代的团员们,以便能够重振雄风。此后,本团的技术水平不断提升,以致恢复了以前的状况。 从1980 年至1982年, 本团不断派队参加比赛, 团员们都不负众望, 夺得了辉煌的成绩, 使本团进入另一个高峰。

自1990 年起, 本团特邀著名华乐指导家——林顺发先生作为本团指导老师, 在林老师努力与细心指导下,本团音乐水准大大提高, 迈入千禧年,本团于2001年参加槟州 PESTA MUZIK 获得合奏组及独奏组的 Sijil Cemerlang. 同年, 本团亦在我校音乐堂举办 《脱蛹》小型华乐演奏会。

2002 年, 本校再次出击, 在 PESTA MUZIK 中荣获独奏组的2项Sijil Cemerlang 及独奏组的 Sijil Kepujian。同年,本团亦再举办 《荷宴》 小型华乐演奏会。 本团已多次组队参加全国华乐合奏与独奏赛, 以吸取经验,提高水准。

2004 年5月1日, 本团冲破重重难关, 首次在槟州大会堂, 举行 《弦乐风情》 音乐会。 此外, 本团于同年12月组队参与2004 年马来西亚华乐合奏大赛, 虽然无法进入决赛,却是个美好的经验与回忆。本团亦于
2005 年7 月30 日, 在本校怀泽堂举办了 《异想天开》2005年校园音乐会。

2005年 12 月23日,本团派队参加 “第7届全国华乐界华乐合奏大赛
” ,取得了骄人的成绩, 荣获全国二等奖。2006 年4月22日, 本团在槟州大会堂举办了第二场大型演奏会,取名为 《韵约》。2007年3月14日,本团与新加坡莱佛士书院华乐团假槟州大会堂联合呈现《南情北韵》华乐交流演奏会。


The Chung Ling High School Chinese Orchestra (CLHSCO) is Penang Island's 1st Chinese Orchestral group. Since its inception, CLHSCO has been in existence for the past 37 years. Formerly, CLHSCO was known as "Chung Ling High School Chinese Society's Chinese Music Section". The orchestra was inaugurated in 1969 under the initiative of several school teachers. The teacher advisors of that very year itself were Mr. Chuah Bo Leng, Mr. Leong Run Zhou, Mdm. Boo He Qin, whilst the chairman was Xu Han Ru.

Initially, the orchestra had only a mere 10 members. In addition, musical instruments were scarce and instructors were greatly deprived of. Consequently, the orchestra only had the opportunity to perform years later. All musical instruments were generously supplied by the teacher advisors of the orchestra and the school teachers.

Since 1970, the orchestra members' musical skills and technical competencies improved tremendously. Besides that, the number of members increased remarkably, thus bringing the orchestra into its "Golden Era". In the year 1973, the orchestra had more than 100 members and every performance received rave reviews from audiences.

In the year 1970, the orchestra left the CLHS Chinese Society to be an independent uniform unit with the name "CLHS Chinese Orchestra".

Since the year 1978, many members had graduated. This resulted in the decline and partial lost of musical skills of the orchestra. Subsequently, only the woodwind and brass section is left. At the same period, the school principal, Mr. Yap Rong He, noticing the extensive deterioration of the orchestra, invited alumni members to return to school for the purpose for guiding the new generation of members. Subsequently, the orchestra's standard has regained that of its former glorious days.

From the year 1980 to 1982, CLHSCO participated actively in various competitions. The orchestra members never failed to deliver their best and was always en route to victory. This brought to another golden era of the orchestra. Since 1990, the orchestra has been under the baton of famous Chinese orchestral conductor, Mr. Lim Soon Huat. Under his musicianship and
meticulous teaching, the orchestra grew from strength to strength.

Marching into the new millennium, the orchestra participate Penang state's PESTA MUZIK in 2001 and was awarded Sijil Cemerlang for Full Orchestra category and Solo category. In the same year, the orchestra held its 1st small scale concert in the school's music room, named "Tuo Yong" (Metamorphosis).

In the year 2002, CLHSCO once again took part in PESTA MUZIK and was awarded 2 Sijil Cemerlangs for Solo and Sijil Kepujian for Full Orchestra category. In that year too, the orchestra held another small scale concert named "He Yan" (Lotus Banquet). The orchestra had also participated in various national full orchestra and solo competitions to gain experience and to raise its standards.

1st of May, 2004, the orchestra succeeded in holding its maiden concert, "Xian Yue Feng Qing" (The Charm of the Melodies) in the prestigious Dewan Sri Pinang.

CLHSCO participated in the biennial 2004 Malaysia's Chinese Orchestra Competition, held in Kuala Lumpur's Thean Hou Temple, but did not manage to enter the final. However the competition left fond memories for members who joined the competition.
On 30th of July, CLHSCO held a concert in the newly refurbished school hall with the name "Yi Xiang Tian Kai" (Fantastic Dreams).

On 22nd of December, 2005, CLHSCO sent a few representatives to join the 7TH MALAYSIA'S CHINESE MUSICAL FESTIVAL - NATIONAL SOLO COMPETITION, held in Penang Chinese Town Hall.
On the very next day (23rd of December, 2005) , CLHSCO was once again jubilant to bag 2nd Prize for the NATIONAL CHINESE ORCHESTRA COMPETITION, held in Dewan Sri Pinang.

On 22nd of April, 2006, CLHSCO held its second large-scale concert in Dewan Sri Pinang, entitled "Yun Yue" (Rendezvous of Melodies).On 14th of March,1007,CLHSCO presented "Nan Qing Bei Yun"
