澳門大學中樂團香港交流活動促進大灣區中樂文化發展與傳承
澳門大學中樂團於2023年3月4日至3月5日與香港理工大學，香港中文大學，香港大學進行音樂交流活動。作為響應粵港澳大灣區戰略下的文化交流呼籲，此次交流活動旨在加强澳大與香港各校之間的聯系；學習其他院校樂團的管理想法及理念，對自身團內管理進行提升； 以及使現有團員之間變得更加親密，提升樂團人心凝聚力和集體榮譽感。
這次香港交流之旅，澳門大學中樂團成員參加了許多不同的活動。除了有機會觀賞各校校舍、親身體驗香港高校學生的日常生活，更提供了一個良好的平臺讓成員與本地學生深入對話，探討有關樂團日常排練安排、演出籌備、學習生活等話題。與友校切磋后，我們意識到傳播中國文化和與來自不同文化的人交流的重要性；在參觀各校樂團排練室當中，我們能夠見證到各樂團如何分配資源從而有效地傳播中樂文化。這次旅行真正擴大了我們的視野，並且鑒定了我們對於中樂文化發展的道路與趨勢。
澳大中樂團團長倪程說，從這次活動中感受到了香港友校的同學們對中國音樂的深切熱愛以及在團隊合作時的認真負責。香港中文大學新亞書院學生會國樂會會長黃靖婷表示，通過這次交流活動，了解到友校同學關於傳習中樂、營運樂團、校園文化等多方面的經歷與心得，實是難能可貴的機會。期望未來兩校能有更多交流合作機會，相互扶持進步，攜手推動兩地中樂發展。
在交流活動期間，澳大中樂團團員與當地學生交流極具教育意義，澳門大學中樂團將於今年4月與香港中文大學、11月與香港理工大學在澳門大學合辦音樂會，進一步推廣中樂文化，展現各校中樂團的實力，望為大灣區中樂文化發展和傳承做出貢獻。

UM Chinese Orchestra’s Hong Kong Exchange Activity Promotes Development and Inheritance of Chinese Music Culture in the Greater Bay Area
The University of Macau Chinese Orchestra (UMCO) visited the Chinese Orchestra of the University of Hong Kong, the Chinese University of Hong Kong, and the Hong Kong Polytechnic University from March 4th to March 5th, 2023 for a music exchange program. The purpose of this exchange activity was to strengthen the relationship between UMCO and the universities in Hong Kong, learn about the managerial ideas and concepts of other university orchestras, improve the management of UMCO, as well as the sense of belonging among members.
During the exchange trip to Hong Kong, UMCO members participated in various activities, including campus visits, immersive experience, in-depth discussions etc. The exchange program provided an opportunity for UMCO members to converse with students and discuss topics such as orchestra rehearsals, performance preparations, and student life. After exchanging ideas, members concluded the importance of disseminating Chinese culture. They witnessed how different orchestras allocate resources effectively to promote Chinese music culture. This trip broadened members’ horizons and enlightened their understanding on Chinese music culture development.
Ni Cheng, the leader of UMCO, said, “We felt the passion of our Hong Kong counterparts for Chinese music and their sense of responsibility as a team.” Huang Jingting, the leader of the CUHK Chinese Music Society of New Asia College, said, “Through this exchange program, we learnt the experiences and insights of our counterparts, UMCO, regarding teaching and learning of Chinese music, orchestral operation, and campus culture. This was a valuable opportunity. We hope both universities will have more opportunities for exchange and cooperation in the future to support each other’s progress and promote the development of Chinese music in both regions.”
The exchange program was a great success not only for the future partnership of UMCO but also as an educational value for all four universities. UMCO will hold a music concert with the Chinese University of Hong Kong in April and with the Hong Kong Polytechnic University in November this year at University of Macau, further promoting Chinese music culture, showcasing the strength of each school’s Chinese orchestra, and contributing to the development and inheritance of Chinese music culture in the Greater Bay Area.
