与Mr. Leedale共赴上海“中音”之旅 A Magical Music Day

Musical Immersion

大家好！今天，我想和大家分享我和音乐学生们在2024年上海“中音”音乐展上经历的奇妙旅程。作为一名音乐老师，我有幸带领我的九年级IGCSE音乐学生以及两位来自十一和十二年级IBDP音乐的优秀学生一起踏上这次难忘的冒险。请准备好，瞧瞧我们音乐探索的精彩瞬间吧！

Hey everyone! Today, I want to share with you the incredible journey my music students and I embarked on at the 2024 Shanghai 'China Music' Musikmesse. As a music teacher, I had the honor of taking my Grade 9 IGCSE Music students along with two brilliant students from Grade 11 and Grade 12 IBDP Music on this unforgettable adventure. Buckle up for an exciting peek into our musical escapade!

因为要出发前往音乐展，可以感受到同学们的兴奋。想象一下，一群充满热情的年轻音乐家，准备潜入一片声音的海洋。精彩的表演、前沿的工作坊和令人震撼的音乐展示，使我们充满期待。

The excitement was almost tangible as we set off for the Musikmesse. Imagine a group of young musicians brimming with enthusiasm, ready to dive into a sea of sound. The promise of stellar performances, cutting-edge workshops, and a mind-blowing showcase of all things music had us buzzing with anticipation.

从我们到达的那一刻起，我们就知道将体验到一些特别的东西。音乐从四面八方传来。想象一下三个巨大的户外舞台，数百个室内舞台，以及无数音乐科技的互动机会。这就像步入了一个音乐仙境！

From the moment we arrived, we knew we were in for something special. The event was electrifying, with music filling the air from every direction. Picture three massive outdoor stages, hundreds of indoor stages, and countless opportunities to get hands-on with music technology. It was like stepping into a musical wonderland!

其中一个亮点就是看到世界上一些最著名的音乐家表演。我们有幸看到中国钢琴大师朗朗的现场演出，他能够通过音乐与观众产生共鸣，令人印象深刻。

One of the highlights was witnessing performances from some of the world’s most renowned musicians. We were lucky enough to see the legendary Lang Lang, the Chinese piano maestro, perform live. His ability to connect with the audience through his music was nothing short of magical. It was an experience my students and I will cherish forever.

当然，最有趣的是学生的互动体验环节！我们两位热情的学生Justin和Jerry在舞台上现场演奏电子吉他，赢得了热烈的掌声。多才多艺的贝斯吉他手Jackson尽情尝试了多种贝斯吉他，每一把都有其独特的魅力。音乐奇才Ella在各种电子小提琴上的技巧让我们叹为观止。精通音乐科技的Atlan尝试了不同的系统，并在多个高科技麦克风前歌唱。这真是最好的实践学习！

And then came the interactive fun! Justin and Jerry, two of our enthusiastic students, got to play live electric guitars on stage. Their performance was met with roaring applause, a testament to their dedication and talent. Jackson, our versatile bass guitarist, had a blast trying out multiple bass guitars, each with its unique charm. Ella, ever the virtuoso, mesmerized us with her skill on various electric violins. Atlan, our tech-savvy student, delved into the realm of music technology, experimenting with different systems and singing into several high-tech microphones. It was hands-on learning at its best!

音乐展最令人敬畏的一方面是其全球代表性。来自世界各地的参展商展示了他们在音乐制作、管理、乐器和教育方面的专长。这是一个文化和风格的大熔炉，所有人都因对音乐的共同热情而团结在一起。我们的学生有机会亲眼看到和体验国际音乐界的多样性。

One of the most awe-inspiring aspects of the Musikmesse was its global representation. Exhibitors from around the world showcased their expertise in music production, management, instruments, and education. It was a melting pot of cultures and styles, all united by a shared passion for music. Our students had the rare opportunity to see and experience firsthand the diverse tapestry of the international music scene.

时间在旋律和学习的旋风中飞逝而过，一天的时间根本不足以完全感受音乐的魅力。我们带着满满的回忆和对音乐广阔世界的新欣赏离开了。

总之，2024年上海“中音”音乐展不仅仅是一个活动。它不但拓宽了我们的音乐视野，也增强了我们对音乐深入探索的热情。这是充满笑声、学习和终身难忘回忆的一天。期待下次的相聚！

The day flew by in a whirlwind of melodies and learning, and we quickly realized that one day simply wasn’t enough to take in everything the event had to offer. We left with a treasure trove of memories and a newfound appreciation for the vast world of music. 

In conclusion, the 2024 Shanghai 'China Music' Musikmesse was more than just an event; it was a transformative experience that broadened our musical horizons and reinforced our collective passion for music. It was a day filled with laughter, learning, and lifelong memories. I can confidently say that it inspired both my students and myself in ways we never imagined. Until next time, keep the music playing!
