In order to celebrate the 70th anniversary of the founding of the People’s Republic of China, to commemorate the 84th anniversary of the December 9th Movement, and to remind teachers and students of the original aspiration and mission, the 3rd Chorus Competition of USTB was successfully held in the staff auditorium on December 9. The SEM team won the Grand Prize and the Best Organization Award!
The team sang a medley of Today is Your Birthday, Under the Bright Sun and The Power of Revival accompanied with the piano, children’s singing, recitation, and dance performances. They extolled the great motherland with uplifting voice, reminded the audience of revolutionary songs and hard-working spirit of the predecessors.
Teachers and students began to prepare for the competition as soon as they received the notice. Instructed by teacher Li Xiang and student Chu Zhongzhu, the team mainly consisted of first-year undergraduate and postgraduate students and teachers. The pianist and lead singer were also students. Zheng Yunchang, a little girl from the affiliated middle school of USTB was invited to join the team. Everyone overcame their nervousness and improved their performance during the rehearsal. They trained their tunes, got familiar with the song, and memorized the lyrics and the score. And finally, they presented a perfect performance in the competition.
The students sang to express their deep love to the great motherland and showed their respect to the past. Students of SEM will always remember the original aspiration and keep the mission firmly in mind, and take action to promote the development of our society in the great new era.
