Attending the Silk Road Chinese Music Concert Bangladesh

Mandarin students of MYP Year 3, 4 and DP Year 1 attended the "Silk Road Chinese Music Concert Bangladesh" organized by the Embassy of China at North-South University on 27th August 2023. This captivating experience offered Mandarin students a unique opportunity to immerse themselves in the essence of China.

Various performances were held, ranging from traditional Chinese folk songs to Bangladeshi classical performances, coming together in a beautiful mix of cultures. The Silk Road Chinese Concert featured a wide array of performances, each more enchanting than the last. Some of the key highlights of the event included: traditional Chinese music, Chinese Opera, fusion performances, and cultural exchange.

Students were treated to exquisite performances of traditional Chinese musical instruments such as the guzheng, erhu, and pipa. The melodies were hauntingly beautiful, transporting the audience to ancient China. The Chinese opera performances were a feast for the eyes and ears. One of the most remarkable aspects of the concert was the fusion of Chinese and Bangladeshi music. Collaborative performances featuring musicians from both cultures showcased the harmonious blending of diverse traditions.

Throughout the event, there were opportunities to engage with Chinese and Bangladeshi artists and learn about their respective cultures, traditions, and artistic expressions. This cultural exchange was both enlightening and enriching.

The Silk Road Chinese Concert provided numerous memorable moments. For many in the audience, it was the first time experiencing Chinese opera and the melodic sounds of traditional Chinese instruments. The collaborative performances between Chinese and Bangladeshi music demonstrated the power of music and art to bridge cultural gaps.

The concert was an exceptional cultural experience. It allowed the Mandarin students to explore the rich heritage of both China and Bangladesh through the medium of music and opera. The fusion of these two distinct cultures showcased the universal language of art and left a lasting impression on all of us. Thanks must be given to the Embassy of China in Bangladesh and North South University for organizing this enlightening and memorable event.

ESS Experiment on Soil

As the new term begins, so does a new experiment for ESS. These experiments are really fun for students as they can gain lab work experience and are beneficial because of the lab report that has to be done following it. For DP1, we are starting the chapter of Soil Systems and Society. Soil is a necessity on Earth and one of the roles is that it helps to grow plants.

It is important to understand these qualities in soil because when they are in a certain condition, it is the best for growing plants. This experiment was very messy, but it was enjoyable. The students were divided into three groups and it was a new experience for everyone. Although we have done experiments before, we did not use some of the apparatus used in this experiment, so it was a new challenge for us. Equipment such as the dropper, glass rod...
