On December 9, BISZ presented the first-ever all-school choral concert in the Mountain View Theater at the Sea World Culture and Arts Center. This event showcased the talents of Mr. Shahbazi’s G1–3 Choir, Ms. Oumei’s G4–5 Choir, and Ms. Murphy’s G6–12 Choir. The choirs sang a diverse range of Christmas songs, including an Argentinian holiday tune, featuring a student and Santa dancing the tango, and a negro spiritual expertly sung by G6 and G7 students. In the finale, all 116 performers spread throughout the theater and on stage to sing a beautiful rendition of “Silent Night,” which brought the audience to tears.
12月9日，深圳贝赛思国际学校在海上世界文化艺术中心境山剧场举办了首场全校合唱音乐会。Mr. Kashi老师带领的一至三年级合唱团、Ms. Oumei老师带领的四至五年级合唱团和Ms. Murphy老师带领的六至十二年级合唱团为观众带来了精彩的表演，充分彰显了学生们的才华和风采。三支合唱团献上了风格各异的圣诞歌曲，其中一首为阿根廷节日歌曲，一名学生和圣诞老人共同完成的探戈舞令人眼前一亮， 六、七年级学生灵魂乐曲目的演绎所表现出的精湛歌技令人惊艳不已。最后，116名表演者在舞台上下一同演唱了《平安夜》，动人的歌声和真挚的情感令观众们动容，为整场音乐会画上圆满句号。
2021 BISZ CHORAL MUSIC
WINTER CONCERT
合唱团冬季音乐会
Continuing the holiday cheer, the Primary School presented “Wishing on a Star,” a magical performance that brought together music, drama, and art on stage. In the first of several collaborative all-Primary events this year, the show was more than just a concert. Students explored the overlap of harmony, the night sky, and winter wonder with music from the choirs and orchestra, dramatic readings and dance, and an interactive lobby display, posters, and set designs created by the G2 Connections classes and Art club. While the music was the star of the event, the dramatic and art elements, clearly inspired by the music, were seamlessly integrated and kept the audience fully engaged through the entire show.
小学部延续节日的热烈氛围，组织了一场集音乐、戏剧、美术于一体的创意表演“向星星许愿”。作为今年小学部面向所有年级的活动中的首场表演，它不仅是一场音乐会，更是学生们通过合唱团和管弦乐队的音乐、戏剧朗读和舞蹈的形式，结合二年级综合课和美术俱乐部中创作的交互式大堂展示、海报和布景设计，对和谐、夜空和冬日奇观的探索。虽然音乐是这场表演的主要元素，但由此产生的戏剧和美术创意也实现了完美的融合。观众们全程十分投入，全神贯注地欣赏着精彩的表演。
