At the closing ceremony, Ms. Zhang Hongyan said, "With the strong assistance of Zhongshan Music Hall, we organized the summer camp and facilitated this year's offline summer camp activities. Such an opportunity to meet face to face is very rare and precious. Participated in the opening of art summer camp for 11 consecutive years. And the performance, not only by myself, but also thanks to a team of teachers who are full of public welfare and love behind me. At the same time, I am also very pleased to see some students who participated in the summer camp, inspired by them, and embarked on a professional path of learning the piano. "

In this summer camp, there are 13 instructors who joined the teaching work together with Teacher Zhang, and each class arranges 2-3 teachers to teach. Some of these instructors have participated in summer camps for ten consecutive years, and even came from other places to participate. The teachers said, "I have followed Mr. Zhang to popularize the art of pipa since I was a student. Every year I see the growth of the students in the pipa summer camp, and I also feel the value and significance of this work."

In the summer camp, Mr. Zhang went out early and returned late every day, and went deep into each class to give guidance and demonstration performances. Teacher Zhang said, "The purpose of my summer camp is to hope that children can feel the beauty and happiness of music in the process of learning the piano, and establish the belief that they will overcome difficulties and achieve a certain level of learning through persistence. Although the course time of the summer camp is Limited, but in the process of training like this, children will have a new understanding of piano practice and stimulate their motivation to learn the piano. This year I prepared a special gift for the students. On the day of the camp, I will be alone with each student. Take a group photo, print it out and present it to the students along with the certificate of completion. I hope that the students who participate in the summer camp can maintain a happy smile, make friends with music, express their inner emotions through performance, and truly feel the tug of heartstrings ' joy."

In addition, in addition to the Pipa class, this summer camp also offers a special singing training course, taught by teacher Cui Yuanyuan, through singing to experience the singing and breathing in music performance, learn collaboration and listening, and improve the overall quality of music.

The teacher introduced, "This piece is a work with certain challenges for those who study professionally. The fingering is complicated and it is not easy to memorize the score. In the two days, I practiced intensively, and even went home and practiced very late, I admire the confidence, courage and determination of the children to challenge difficulties, break through themselves, and show themselves."

The students of Class 4 presented two pieces, "The Sun in Hometown" and "Dance of the Yi Nationality". The students said, "Although I have already learned these two pieces, the training here has made me realize the small problems that existed in the previous inertial practice. Many previously vague concepts and techniques of playing have been corrected. Calm down and practice to control the rhythm one note at a time, in order to present the work more solidly and improve the expressiveness of music performance." The final five students who took the stage were all professionals The pipa students came from the Central Conservatory of Music, the attached middle school, the attached primary school, and the Zhejiang Conservatory of Music, etc. They brought the songs "The Sun of Hometown" and "Dance of the Yi Nationality".

I have also met like-minded friends, and learned piano skills together, making piano practice no longer boring and enjoyable. Passive, I hope the children can always maintain this motivation. I am very pleased and moved to see the wonderful closing report performance of the children today. As parents, we should give children more companionship and encouragement, so that they can learn the piano in a happy way.”
