都说今日之中国是“流动的乡土中国”,如同血脉相连的家、如那条尽头连着父母守望的归家路一样,中国人的文化根脉、家国情怀,从未转移。而在这些远离故土的中国人们心里,每年欢庆农历春节就成为了最重要的事。拿省华人协会作为加拿大大西洋省份中最具有影响力的华人社团之一,举办农历新年新春晚宴已经有十几年的历史,每年都成为哈法华人春节活动的亮点。今年2月9日拿省华人协会猪年新春晚宴在Casino Nova Scotia温暖举办。
春节文化作为一个共同的纽带,不仅把相互熟悉的家人联系在一起,更把无穷的远方、无数的人们联系在一起。今年的晚宴以新斯科舍省中国协会会长黄文先生和副会长赵永淦先生为核心团队的华人协会邀请了社会各界300多名嘉宾欢聚一堂,载歌载舞,欢度新春佳节。
过去的一年,我们在前进路上奋力奔跑,跨过许多沟沟坎坎,越过不少激流险滩,很辛苦、也很充实,有付出、更有收获。在晚宴现场拿省华人协会主席黄文首先上台致辞向各位嘉宾和朋友们拜年。而后各个嘉宾以及各品牌赞助商也先后登台演说,除了回顾各界人士对于哈法在过去一年取得的各项成就同时也表达了对中国新年的祝愿。
谈及年文化,一位作家有过这样的判断,“由故土、血缘、乡情汇集而成的巨大磁场,遍布大地山川每个城市和村庄。让这磁场产生效力与魅力的,既是感情的力量也是文化的力量。”诚如斯言,无论我们身在何方,一到春节,就总是想到家庭团圆,就总是想到生于斯、长于斯的老家,想到大家聚在一起的温暖和力量。从“千门万户曈曈日,总把新桃换旧符”中,我们体会到时间的流动;从“举杯互敬屠苏酒,散席分尝胜利茶”中,我们品出了砥砺与畅想。在致辞结束之后,现场来宾在觥筹交错之间交流的是对新的一年的美好憧憬,更是中加之间深厚的情谊。
旗袍,与其说是中国的服装,倒不如说是中国文化的写意,它似一首律韵流畅、意境堪美的诗词,又如行云流水、飘逸洒脱的行草,在演员们的举手头足之间将东方女性典雅、婉约、飘逸展现的淋漓尽致。晚上九点,一段旗袍大秀将拿省华人协会春节歌舞晚会的帷幕徐徐拉开。紧接着温婉、灵动、活泼的傣族舞蹈“水之灵”又将现场观众的思绪抛到了遥远的彩云之南,让大家好好感受了一把中国民俗风情的魅力。接下来的一个半小时里,中国的戏曲文化变脸、戏剧;中国的民俗文化古筝、二胡;中国的传统书画表演轮番上阵,将中华民族最深层的文化基因尽情展现,中华传统文化的传承就在这些歌舞之间温暖流动。晚会中特别要提到的是Maritime Dance舞蹈学校的小演员们,他们用自己的动感十足的舞蹈架起中加文化交流的桥梁。在晚会的最后,一曲熟悉的《难忘今宵》唱响,演员们和现场来宾在乐曲声中徐徐登上舞台合影留念,留住这让人难以忘怀的一刻,寄托住海外游子对祖国和故土的思慕之情。歌舞不仅仅可以传递这些在外漂泊华人们相亲相爱的情感,同时也蕴藏着山一程水一程也无法阻隔的血缘亲情。
春节是新的开始,预示着新的希望。在流动的时代感受团圆的温暖和力量,在变化的时间里感悟不变的文化基因,我们更有动力创造美好生活,让我们的传统文化不老,让我们的中加友谊源远流长。
