It was an absolute pleasure having her with us for the concert. She performed on the Chinese traditional instrument Guzheng and sang for us the lovely song \u2018I Love You China.\u2019 Pupils were amazed by her talent and capabilities.<\/p>\n<p>Shortly after we invited the Chinese singers \u00a0S6 Jagoda Halicka and S1 Odin MacKenzie. They sang the beautiful song \u2018Hometown\u2019. Here\u2019s a comment from Jagoda &#8211; \u201cI feel that the performance went quite well. I\u2019m sure the meaning of the song still came through regardless and the audience enjoyed it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Miss O\u2019Donnell and the Mandarin Choir came shortly after with a performance of the song \u2018True Hero\u2019. The same song was sung at the SCEN Youth China Conference, when we were hosting pupils from Hong Kong in Scotland. The whole audience clapped along and it made the atmosphere a whole lot more joyful.<\/p>\n<p>The last Chinese music performance was a violin solo from S6 Paul Docherty. Paul has been a great friend of the Mandarin class and has previously performed on many Chinese festivities. He was awarded with a traditional Chinese painting from Mr Docerhty for all his hard work and left us all stunned by the amazing music.<\/p>\n<p>The Chinese Lunch-time Concert Party was a magical thing to attend and we recommend that all should get involved in Mandarin and the Chinese culture.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Chinese Lunch-time Concert party on the 27th of February was a great achievement for all.
