The Global Music Education League and the Philadelphia Orchestra take musical talent cultivation, understanding and exchanges to a 'profound and meaningful level', Cheng Yuezhu reports.
Recalling the collaborative journey between the Global Music Education League and the Philadelphia Orchestra, chairman of the league Wang Liguang spoke fondly about three photos that capture three key moments.
In 2019, when the league was signing a strategic partnership with the Philadelphia Orchestra, Wang took a photo with Matias Tarnopolsky, the orchestra's president and chief executive officer.
Earlier this year, he took the photo to a concert given by the Philadelphia Orchestra, which commemorated the 50th anniversary of the ensemble's first visit to China in 1973, making it the first US orchestra to perform in the People's Republic of China. There, Wang met Tarnopolsky again and took another photo, in which the two can be seen holding the original photo.
A third picture, showing the two holding the second photo, was taken recently, as the orchestra collaborated with the league in the Global Music Education League Violin Competition in Beijing between Nov 3 and 13.
