Boarding School Social Event (hold)

Boaarding School Social Event: (Dionysiac Delights)

17th March 2010, 20:30

We are holding a social gathering for boarders’ parents in the Glass Pavilion. The evening will take the form of a “Wine-tasting” and there will be an opportunity to purchase wine from an importer of Australian and New Zealand wines. A wine producer from Australia will also be present. There will be a “Lucky Draw” with valuable prizes. Tickets will cost $50.00 per person and can be bought from the Boarding School Office. As space is limited, only 100 places are available. We would also hope some old boys can join us. We hope the evening will be of interest to you and will also raise some funds for the Boarding School.

Yours faithfully,

Rev’d. Dr. W. Robertson
Warden

There will be a DBS time capsule laying ceremony in November to celebrate the 140th anniversary of the School. The Headmaster has invited all students of SD and PD to write down their feelings about DBS and HK in the next 10 and 30 years. This invitation is extended to all old boys around the world as well. Participation is easy, simply fill in the attached form and email back to Amy AuYeung (dsobaamy@yahoo.com.hk) before November 24. Your messages will be stored electronically with passwords protection. The passwords would in turn be stored inside a physical two-compartment time capsule to be laid at the ceremony. One compartment will be opened by the 150th anniversary (10 years later) and the other one by the 170th anniversary (30 years later).

 雅部共賞――細味崑曲之美

         為慶祝拔萃男書院創校一百四十週年，並讓更多中學生認識我國的文化瑰寶，拔萃男書院誠意邀請蘇州中國崑曲博物館，於十月二十日及二十一日親臨本校禮堂獻技。我校特意邀請　閣下蒞臨欣賞是次表演，一起細味蘊藉委婉的崑曲美學，同時亦為這難得的文化盛會增添色彩和光芒。

崑韻情長，經歷了六百年的歷史，典雅的文辭、清俊的曲調體現了中國文化的美學，令人驚豔。崑曲被稱為「雅部」，是高雅、正統的戲曲，是最能表現中國傳統美學抒情、寫意、象徵、詩化的一種藝術，是能夠把歌、舞、詩、戲糅合得精緻優美的一種表演形式。崑曲的藝術成分滋養了各地戲種，被尊稱為中國「百戲之袓」，更於2001 年被聯合國教科文組織列為「人類口述非物質文化遺產」之首項，肯定了崑曲的卓著藝術成就。

 中國崑曲博物館來自崑曲的發源地──蘇州，集搶救、保護、研究、培訓、展演等功能於一體，是傳承崑曲藝術的舞台和展示崑曲藝術風采的基地。中國崑曲博物館是次到校演出兩晚，第一晚的劇目是曲詞優美的《玉簪記》，第二晚則演出三段折子戲，分別為《孽海記‧下山》、《牡丹亭‧驚夢》及《占花魁‧湖樓》。

 崑曲的藝術成就之高，實為青年人的美育典範。藉着是次中國崑曲博物館的獻演，拔萃男書院希望將崑曲藝術帶進校園，培養年青學子認識及欣賞這門精緻藝術。我校專誠邀請　閣下與我們一同感受中華文化的古樸魅力，詳情如下：

 日期：十月二十日及十月二十一日

時間：下午五時三十分至六時，中式茶點招待

下午六時至六時十五分，入座

下午六時十五分後，正式演出（劇長約一百分鐘，不設中場休息）

地點：拔萃男書院禮堂

            劇目：十月二十日  ─ 《玉簪記》

                          十月二十一日─  折子戲

1.《占花魁‧湖樓》

2.《孽海記‧下山》

3.《牡丹亭‧驚夢》

隨函附上入場券，如蒙　閣下撥冗出席，實為我校的光榮！煩請填妥回條，並於十月十九日前傳真（27119407）至本校林小潔老師，以便安排、跟進。如有任何疑問，歡迎致電27685645與林小潔老師聯絡。

 此致

拔萃男書院舊生會

 拔萃男書院校長
