最新消息：推迟演出 <A href="http://www.ajc.com/metro/content/metro/stories/2009/07/06/chinese_orchestra_cancellation.html?cxntlid=homepage_tab_newstab">http://www.ajc.com/metro/content/metro/stories/2009/07/06/chinese_orchestra_cancellation.html?cxntlid=homepage_tab_newstab</A> Chinese orchestra organizers determined to reschedule event It was a cultural visit years in the making. But a Chinese orchestra that planned to play two concerts in metro Atlanta is staying home due to the swine flu. he 49-member Hangzhou Zhongee Wenlan High School orchestra was scheduled to perform July 25 at the Rialto Theatre in Atlanta and the next day at the Centre for Performing & Visual Arts in Newnan. Organizers had lined up host families, cultural exchanges, sightseeing trips, a group dinner and celebrations. Local students were getting ready to print T-shirts reading, “Ambassador, City of Newnan, China Tour 2009.” “It’s pretty heartbreaking,” said Bette Hickman, a Newnan Cultural Arts Commission member. “This involved hundreds of people. Our kids were so pumped up for this, and we had just done an orientation. “But we are going to do this again. We are going to make this happen.” The Chinese school’s principal sent a letter last week saying his provincial education department had banned students from going abroad. The decree followed the death of a 34-year-old woman in Hangzhou, who was infected with the H1N1 virus and had just returned from the U.S. “In our side, everything is ready such as the performance clothes, shoes, the program list and we practice our programs twice a week, and we did what we can to make it perfect,” principal Ren Jichang wrote to Hickman. “Just at the moment we are leaving for the USA, I have to say sorry to you.” The U.S. has nearly 34,000 confirmed swine flu cases, and 170 people have died from the virus. Most people have recovered without needing medical treatment. Georgia has 118 confirmed cases, but no deaths. China reports more than 2,000 cases, but no deaths. Hickman said the orchestra had previously performed in Paris but has never been to the U.S. Forty-nine students aged 12 to 16, plus 10 adult chaperones, were scheduled to arrive July 23, stay in Georgia State housing and perform at the Rialto before coming to Newnan. “The university saw it was something that would really be special,” Hickman said. “Then in Newnan I had them in host homes. I even had reserve host homes, that’s how my community responded.” Newnan hosted a 100-member Scottish orchestra 10 years ago. Hickman said she hopes the Chinese orchestra can come next summer. Hickman communicates daily with a teacher at the Chinese school. “Their kids were devastated too,” Hickman said.

Arriving in Atlanta this July is a 60 member student Orchestra from Wen Lan High School in Hangzhou .  This historic first time visit to the United States for these young musicians and their teachers has been made possible by many of you on this list.  I hope you will consider attending either of the two performances and invite others.  Several of us have had the joy of hearing the Orchestra perform when visiting Hangzhou .  Please send this to your friends and colleagues and help us fill each venue.  Only two US performances will be offered, Atlanta and Newnan.      The students will be hosted on campus at GSU July 23th and 24th and perform on July 25th.  They will then travel to Newnan and be welcomed by host families July 25th, 26th , 27th and depart for home on July 28th.  The attached flyer will give other details.   We want to acknowledge and thank the team members making this event possible, even in this challenged economic climate:   Members of the Georgia House and Senate, Georgia State University and  The Rialto Theater, Griffin Spalding Schools, Coweta County Schools and the Centre for Performing and Visual Arts, the Newnan Cultural Arts Commission and the many volunteers who are willing to open their homes and give their time and influence so generously.   If you live in Coweta County and are interested in being a host family please call me at 770-251-3795 or reply by e-mail to learn more about what is expected.   Please call or reply if you have any questions.   Warm regards, Bette   Bette Hickman Executive Director Global Achievers Inc. 2363 E.
