Wang Fei 王菲 Guqin Improvisation Chinese Music Poetry 王葳朗诵那兰性德《梦江南》

This live performance is from NAGA's Yalon (Chinese yaji+ French Salon) on 10/17/2010.
Wang Wei王葳 recited a poem by the famous Qing Dynasty poet Nalan Xingde 那兰性德 while Wang Fei improvised on the guqin.

A yalon 雅龙© (yaji+salon) is a mixed gathering of East and West, ancient and modern. It was conceived and created by NAGA's director Wang Fei in October, 2010.

Based on the traditional Chinese scholar's yaji (雅集 elegant gathering) and the French artistic gatherings known as salons (沙龙), a yalon (雅龙) © is a novel and artistic high society gathering, centering on guqin, attended by contemporary literati in homage to the ancient Chinese yaji of the Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove and hosted by intellectual women in their living rooms, as was done in the past by George Sand in her French salons and Lin Huiyin (林徽因) in her literary salons.

The purpose of yalons is to provide an inspirational platform for artists to collaborate across cultures and across art forms; to encourage artists to create new works; to introduce a new lifestyle in which a person can be not just materially wealthy but also spiritually rich. We hope today's NAGA yalons starting in China will be a spark that can light a prairie fire to revive Chinese high culture, now that its economy has become so successful.

清朝那兰性德的词《梦江南》：昏鸦尽，小立恨因谁？急雪乍翻春阁絮，轻风吹到胆瓶梅，心字已成灰。

yalon 雅龙 是王菲王葳姐妹混搭的一种聚会尝试。即有西方式沙龙的形式（始发于女人招集的客厅艺术聚会）又有中国古代文人雅集的内容。古代与现代，东方与西方的交融。希望琴声，吟诗，­书法，与艺术品的鉴赏，能驱走白日的繁忙的喧嚣，带给亲朋友好友，邻里邻外冬日的温馨。 10月17日yalon 雅龙片段
