The snow of last week announced that winter is approaching. Despite the cold weather, the teachers and students in G5 and G6 of SHSID could not wait for the Art Festival to be held on December 20th. Being a part of the 25th Anniversary Celebration, the Art Festival is extraordinarily prepared.
The first performance was a student band performing “Shape of You”. The band consisted of four G6 boys. They seemed a little nervous while standing on the stage. However, the combination of different instruments expressed the melody in a fabulous way. The boys became immersed in their own performance. Then, the G6 performers played western instruments, like piano, violin, and marimba, as well as traditional flute and guzheng. The audience applauded for the brilliant shows of music and dancing.
The 5th grade students also showed their gorgeous skills. Apart from instruments, the girls’ dancing was the most impressive performance. Like the blooming flowers, the girls entirely showed their self-confidence on the stage.
The spotlights of this Art Festival were the G5 harmonica and G6 bamboo flute. Everyone had spent much of their spare time on practicing. The shows from Boy’s Pop Dancing Club, Classical Dancing Club, and String & Wind Orchestra not only displayed the colorful club life of our school, but also gave the wishes for the peaceful Christmas and New Year.
“Save the best to the last”. The performances from teachers were always highly appreciated. Students were enjoying since their teachers exposed another face in front of them. The teacher performances of “Take Me Out” and “All I Want For Christmas is You” gained the most cheers.
The show ended, but the enjoyment was endless. We wish everyone a happy new year and SHSID a happy birthday!
伴随着初雪的飘落，上海的冬天已然降临，但寒冷的天气挡不住师生们的热情，上中国际部五六年级艺术节于12/20下午在大礼堂隆重地拉开序幕。作为国际部校庆25周年的重头戏之一，今年艺术节的每个节目都是经过精心准备的。
首先上场的是六年级的四个男生组成的小乐队，看得出他们有一丝紧张和羞涩，但当音乐响起，他们弹奏起各自的乐器时，个个酷劲十足。悠扬的钢琴、动感的架子鼓、清新的吉他和激情的萨克斯风，完美的组合演绎出美妙的乐曲，引得台下喝彩声不断。接着，六年级同学带来的乐器演奏可为中西融合、精彩纷呈，既有现代的钢琴、小提琴、木琴，也有古典的竹笛和古筝。而朗诵和舞蹈节目也博得了阵阵的掌声。
当然，五年级的同学也不甘示弱，纷纷亮出自己的拿手绝活。除了乐器演奏，女生们的舞蹈节目令人记忆深刻。不论是独舞还是群舞，女生们毫不胆怯，尽情在舞台上绽放自己曼妙的身姿，自信的女生最棒！
除了每个班级的节目之外，五年级的口琴和六年级的竹笛表演更是全场的亮点，大家为了这次演出可是铆足了劲，认真排练了很久呢。学校的男生街舞团、古典舞蹈团和管弦乐团也演出了精彩的助兴节目，不仅展示了国际部学生丰富多彩的社团活动，还用这特别的方式给大家捎来了圣诞和新年的祝福。
临近尾声的压轴大戏是每年大家都翘首以待的老师们的表演，这次老师们带来了《Take me out》和舞蹈《All Want for Christmas is You》，看着平时或严肃或幽默或寡言或和蔼的老师们在台上展现着自己的另一面，台下的小观众们爆发出雷鸣般的掌声和尖叫声，欢声笑语响彻礼堂。
艺术节演出在热烈和欢乐的气氛下划上了完美的句号，五六年级的师生们互相祝福彼此新年万事顺利，也为上中国际部25周年庆献上最温馨的祝福，祝愿母校生日快乐！
