Hi everyone,
Thank you for subscribing to Wu Fei’s Music Daily! This is the 288th episode — Song of winter jackdaw.
This track was recorded yesterday. It is a theme and variations of a classical guzheng piece called 寒鸦戏水 - the literal translation is The Winter Jackdaw Playing in Water. This traditional instrumental piece is from Chaozhou 潮州 area in east Guanggong province in China.
It has been a hectic week in the U.S. for the Asian American community. I would like to use this newsletter to do something helpful.
Asian American Advancing Justice Atlanta has set up a donation site here to help support Georgia's Asian American communities. This donation page was created to help the victims and their families impacted by the violent acts that took place on Tuesday, March 16, 2021. All donations will go directly to support the victims and their families.
In 2018, I had the honor to attend the annual national convention of AAAJC held in Atlanta. It was inspiring to meet so many community leaders around the country who do amazing humanitarian work. I got to see Stacy Abrams’ speak!
Thank you all for your kind emails, texts and comments on my social media sites! It meant a lot to me. Hope you have a restful and peaceful weekend. Stay safe!
