2002
activities:
- On 11/09/02, performed an one hour show in the International Festival
eking Opera Shows.
- After-show discussions held: Centering around where we hit off nicely, and where we were deficient at.
-
This is to help us to further our improvement.
- We had bi-montly meetings in January, March, May, and July, September, and November (all odd months). Next meeting is scheduled to take place in January, 2003. We had some visitors in
each of our meetings and we had good food, plenty of singing and tons of fun!
- TAPOA constitution and bylaws have been revised quite a
bit. As recent as 11/02, we deliberated a lot on the subjects
and hence made progress in our regulations and rules in those
revisions. They were made more practical, useful, and perhaps
even more specific in dealing with some of the issues that may,
from time to time, arise.
- TAPOA now has a resident professional Hu Ching
player/teacher in our area. If any one is interested in learning
how to sing a Chinese Opera, or the theory thereof, or would like
to pick up a hobby to play Hu Ching or Er Hu, one may learn
from him. He is good and has a long list of outstanding credentials.
- Reiteration of the stated position this organization had in the past:
We welcome people, young or old, female or male, green or
seasoned in opera singing, to join our organization. We are here
to meet people of having the sameness of hobby. We are having
fun -- opera singing, gourmet food, performing at public place,
if invited. And most of all, we also practice a democratic process,
in which every one has a voice, but each one's right or obligation
is concurrently limited by our newly revised constitution , and by
our bylaws. Every one works hard for the betterment of our
organization.
- As of this time (12/02/02), we anticipate our participation in the
TACAS New Year Show to be held on 2/2/03, and Greensboro
Chinese Association New Year Show to be held on 2/1/03. A lot
of planning and preparation work will be done between now and then.
