卡爾加裡市議員夏柏特的賀詞
我榮幸之至地衷心歡迎和誠摯的問候神韻藝術家和所有支持美國神韻藝術團2010年世界巡迴演出的人們。
神韻表演藝術所展現的古典美和特殊的表達方式豐富了我們的生活,震撼了我們每一個人,而幾乎沒有任何東西可以有能力做到。
神韻演出通過絢麗而又充滿活力的色彩、高難度和頂級的舞蹈動作、鼓舞人心的音樂觸動著人們的靈魂。能有機會通過藝術去體驗另一種文化,是卡爾加裡居民的榮幸和榮耀。
我希望儘可能多的卡爾加裡人利用這個難得的機會祝賀和歡迎神韻來到卡爾加裡!
安德烈.夏柏特
第十選區市議員

MESSAGE FROM ALDERMAN CHABOT
It is my absolute pleasure to extend a heartfelt welcome and sincere greeting to the artists and everyone supporting the Shen Yun 2010 World Tour.
The classic beauty and extraordinary expression of Shen Yun Performing Arts enriches our lives and touches us as individuals in ways that few other things have the ability to do.
A production such as this stirs the soul with its lavish and vibrant colours, intricate and superbly choreographed movement and poignant music. Having an opportunity to experience another culture through its art is both a privilege and an honour for the residents of Calgary.
It is my hope that as many Calgarians as possible take advantage of this wonderful opportunity. Congratulations and welcome to Calgary!
Andre Chabot
Ward 10 Alderman
