The China Popular Music Association and the China Society for the Studies of
Children Literature have jointly launched the Children's Band Battle, a
prestigious national event unveiled in Beijing on Wednesday.#
This eagerly anticipated competition will bring together talented children's
bands from across the country, converging at the NCPA Taihu Stage Art Centre
in Beijing from Aug 19 to 23 for a dynamic five-day summer camp filled with
electrifying live performances and enriching masterclasses.#
The participating children's bands will be categorized into groups based on
age distinctions, spanning from 3 to 8 years old, 9 to 12 years old, and 13 to
17 years old, ensuring a fair and engaging competition tailored to each
group's unique talent and capabilities.#
Renowned figures in the music industry, including veteran songwriters Jin
Zhaojun, Jia Ding, and esteemed members of Chinese rock bands such as Zhao
Mingyi, the iconic drummer of Black Panther, will form the esteemed art
committee. These distinguished artists will serve as mentors to the young
bands, offering guidance during rehearsals and conducting enlightening
masterclasses to nurture their musical prowess.#
Zhang Shurong, vice-president of the art committee, highlighted the
significance of art education in modern schools, noting the increasing trend
of children learning not only classical instruments like the piano and violin
but also contemporary musical instruments. The event aims to provide a
platform for children to showcase their talents, forge new friendships, and
foster meaningful communication through the universal language of music.#
Reflecting on his own musical journey, drummer Zhao expressed his enthusiasm
for the upcoming summer camp, eager to impart his knowledge and experiences to
the next generation of musicians. He emphasized the lasting influence of music
on individuals' lives, stating that while not all participants may pursue
music professionally, they will undoubtedly carry their love for music
throughout their lifetime, enriching their experiences and relationships along
the way.&
