從2012 到 2018 我們在肯尼廸表演藝術中心的千禧舞台表演六次,並且連續十年毎年的表演都超過二十場。 再者在這些年來, 我們重覆被邀請在著名的場地表演, 例如: 兩次在參議院, 兩次在國會圖書館, 三次在史密松尼博物館, 五次在Concert Hall of The Performing of Art等。 我們的學生有很多表演機會, 其中一位學生自2005到2015年10月間便隨團表演了一百一十六場。 我們熱切歡迎你或是你的孩子加入。維州和馬州都有上課地點。
我們的團址是在美國東岸大華府地區, 維吉尼亞州北部的泰森角, 緊接馬里蘭州和華盛頓特區。 團員來自中﹑港﹑台﹑美，也有越南﹑泰國﹑寮國﹑日本﹑馬來西亞等地的華僑。自二〇〇二年六月成立到二〇二〇年這十七年間，我們在不同的大學﹑政府部門﹑圖書館﹑購物中心等場所先後演出了四百二十八場次: 足跡遍及肯尼廸表演藝術中心(The Kennedy Center)、金碧輝煌的Strathmore音樂廳、國會山莊、參議院、國會圖書館、華盛頓紀念碑公園、史密松尼博物館國家廣場、喬治梅森大學音樂廳、Freer Gallery、司法部和教育部等。嬋鳴古箏團整齊的陣容和高水平的表演， 都使華盛頓首府各地區的居民留下深刻的認識和瞭解。
自成立以來,除了注重正統古箏樂曲的傳授和推廣外,有感於身在異地,為了引發更多外國人士的興趣,於是借鏡中國内地和世界各地古箏音樂的發展,箏團不斷在古箏的表達和演譯上作出新嘗試。在箏團新編配的箏曲中配以不同的樂器和敲撃樂,如木琴、電子吉他、小提琴、長笛、簫、鼓堂、獅鼓、軍鼓、海鼓、鑼、鈸、罄、木魚、碰鈴和鈴鼓;還視乎樂曲的需要,加上舞蹈、書法、歌唱、武術和手語等,務求使觀衆体會到樂曲的神髓,産生恒久的共鳴。
在忙碌﹑枯燥的生活中，彈奏一曲，嬝嬝箏聲，確是陶冶性情，提高個人修養的好消遣。我們熱切地張開雙手歡迎你們加入這個大家庭，互相關懷，互勵互勉；共同為古箏的「大眾化」﹑「普及化」出一分力。在美國傳播中國的民族音樂，弘揚中華文化,促進中美文化的交流,令生活多添姿彩。 |
