刘月宁：持续推动中国音乐海外传播

Chinese music has gradually been understood, accepted and loved by people from around the world, Liu Yuening, leading yangqin (a Chinese dulcimer) performer, Central Conservatory of Music professor, and national political adviser said on Saturday.

3月9日，全国政协委员、中央音乐学院扬琴教授刘月宁对记者表示，中国音乐已逐渐被世界各地的人民理解、接受和喜爱。

Over the last five years, about 200 teachers and students from 13 countries have learned Chinese music at the conservatory, and brought what they've learnt to others, Liu told reporters at the Great Hall of the People in Beijing.

刘月宁在人民大会堂接受记者采访时说，五年来，中央音乐学院共计培养来自13个国家的200多名音乐专业师生，他们正在世界各地展示和分享中国音乐。

One Canadian student even formed a Chinese folk music band with classmates back home, having learnt the xiao (a vertical bamboo flute), zhongruan (a traditional Chinese four-stringed lute) and yangqin for three years, she said.

她说，一位加拿大音乐专业研究生连续来了三年，学了萧、中阮、扬琴等传统乐器，回国后这名学生把周围同学召集起来，组织了一支有相当演奏水平的中国民乐队，在当地传播中国音乐文化。

The conservatory produced the world's first bilingual textbooks and video series for foreigners to learn Chinese music, focusing on performance and folk songs. Some colleges in Denmark and North America have opened Chinese music courses, according to Liu.

刘月宁介绍，中央音乐学院研发了一套名为“中国音乐轻松学”的世界首套中英双语系列书籍和视频，面向外国人学习中文音乐。目前，丹麦、北美等国家和地区多所音乐学院开设了中国音乐选修课。

冯巩：人民需要艺术，艺术也需要人民

Feng Gong, chairman of the China Literary and Art Volunteers' Association, said the association has organized activities in factories, villages, schools and poor mountainous areas, and has felt people's enthusiasm for culture and art.

全国政协委员、中国文艺志愿者协会主席冯巩说，近年来我们广泛开展了多项工作，不断地深入到工厂、农村、学校和贫困山区，感受到了人民群众对文化艺术的热情。

"People need art. Art also needs people. Literary and art workers should stay in close touch with the people to feel their joy and sadness, in order to produce works that are close to real life, welcomed by the public and can be passed down from generation to generation," he said.

冯巩说：“人民需要艺术，艺术也需要人民。我们文艺工作者只有不断地深入生活、扎根人民，感受到老百姓的酸甜苦辣和喜怒哀乐，才能创造出接地气、传得开、留得下的精品力作。”
