A Jazzy Christmas with Howard McCrary by CU Chorus 中大合唱團

校長獻辭

Message from the Vice-Chancellor I am very pleased to be invited to the Christmas concert of the CU Chorus, a fine tradition which no doubt the current organizers have taken great trouble to maintain and improve on. As one of the earliest established campus choral groups in Hong Kong, and one that is often proved to be among the best in public competitions, CU Chorus has chosen for its theme the performance of jazz music in their 2012 presentation, a bold attempt and a gust of fresh air into the traditional college choral repertoire. Over the years jazz music has not been the choice of mainstream choral conductors in Hong Kong, partly because not all conductors are familiar with the genre and its particular modes of expression, and partly because of its seeming distance from the classical masterpieces. Hence well-executed jazz music is a rare treat for the audience in Hong Kong, especially when performed by a mixed choir of considerable size. I am sure the CU Chorus, as an experienced and professionally trained ensemble, will rise to the occasion in the jazz renditions of Christmas favourites that we are hearing tonight, and that the audience will come away well sated with good music.

今天晚上承中大合唱團邀請，出席他們的聖誕音樂會，至感歡欣。合唱團的負責人花上不少精神和氣力去籌備這個音樂會，並使之更瑧完美，實在令人敬佩。中大合唱團是本港高校中同類團體中歷史最悠久的其中之一，也在公開比賽中屢屢奪標。合唱團是次的公演，選擇了爵士樂的演繹，在本港校園合唱團中是比較少見的，也為合唱團的曲目帶來新意。歷年來爵士樂曲鮮為主流合唱團指揮所選用，其原因之一固然是有很多指揮並不熟習爵士樂與其獨特的演奏方式，而另一方面，也有不少人認為爵士樂與正統古典音樂有很大的差異。因此，在香港要欣賞一場高水準的爵士音樂會並非易事，由大規模混聲合唱團來演出就更少見了。我深信訓練有素，經驗豐富的中大合唱團在今晚以爵士樂形式演唱耳熟能詳的聖誕歌曲，定必勝任愉快，令在場聽眾耳目一新。

I also take the opportunity here to extend my best wishes to the CU Chorus, and look forward to the pleasure of listening more to their music as they seek to break new and worthy grounds in the expansion of their repertoire.

Joseph J Y Sung Vice-Chancellor and President The Chinese University of Hong Kong

我亦藉此機會祝願中大合唱團百尺竿頭，更進一步，在開拓音樂新領域的事業上繼續邁進。

香港中文大學校長沈祖堯 Howard McCrary 的爵士聖誕

Howard McCrary 獻辭 Message from Howard McCrary 英文中「啟發」 (inspired) 一字，來自「精神所在」 (in spirit)。

To be “inspired” derives from the expression “in spirit”.

一詞記之，這場音樂會的目的就是「啟發」。最重要的：這是聖誕節！這是一年之中，我們慶祝人類慈愛與美善的日子，這次更結合了天才指揮朱振威帶領下的香港中文大學合唱團天使般的聲音，演唱我為他們重新編曲的新舊聖誕歌曲。這次世界首演的聖誕作品以爵士與福音風格為主，也有一點香港流行曲的味道。我們有香港最好的樂手一起演奏：令人驚艷的低音大提琴手蕭偉中、傳奇結他手 Skip Moy，以及為我們演奏薩克管的特別嘉賓，既漂亮又富才華的 Kitty Ng 。當創意與喜樂的心相遇，凡事皆可能。我也會演唱兩首在我首張在香港發行的慈善大碟《 World Peace and Love》的歌曲。

This is what this concert is all about – “inspiration”! First and foremost, it’s Christmas! The time of year when we celebrate kindness and goodwill to all mankind, combined with the exuberance of the well-trained and purely angelic voices of the Chinese University of Hong Kong Chorus, under the direction of their gifted conductor Leon Chu, singing new and traditional songs that I have arranged especially for them. This will be a world premiere of Christmas Jazz and Gospel with a touch of Canton Pop. We also have some of Hong Kong’s finest musicians performing with us: the amazingly competent Justin Siu on bass, the legendary Skip Moy on guitar, and our special guest on saxophone, the beautiful and talented Kitty Ng. Whenever creative and joyful hearts get together, anything is possible. I am also performing two numbers from my debut HK charity CD World Peace and Love.

希望這是一個難忘的愉快爵士夜！讓我們一起享受歡欣……這是聖誕節！

We hope this will be an unforgettable evening of Jazz and Joy! Let us rejoice together... it’s Christmas! 2

A Jazzy Christmas with Howard McCrary

中大合唱協會理事會會長獻辭

Message from President, CU Chorus Association On behalf of the Chinese University of Hong Kong Chorus, first I would like to wish every dear audience here an early merry little Christmas.

首先謹代表香港中文大學合唱團，預祝各位觀眾聖誕快樂。能夠流傳後世、膾炙人口的聖誕音樂，大多旋律優美而平易近人。它們往往不是出自名家之手，而是透過教會、合唱團爭相傳頌而為世人所熟知。能歷久常新、為人津津樂道者，必為好音樂，也要跟觀眾分享。今年香港中文大學合唱團為大家帶來的一系列聖誕音樂，熟悉以外還有著一點新鮮感。我們很榮幸邀得美國爵士樂大師 Howard McCrary 為我們改編本來耳熟能詳的聖誕歌曲，注入爵士樂元素，除了對團員們的節奏感、聽力設下新挑戰外，亦期望能讓觀眾耳目一新，在十二月初的週末，輕鬆感受合唱音樂與爵士樂隊營造的獨特氛圍。對合唱團而言，聖誕節是一年一度佈佳音的日子。香港中文大學合唱團多年來一直維持聖誕佈佳音的傳統，與群眾分享聖誕節、分享合唱音樂帶來的歡樂，亦歡迎各位前來觀賞我們酒店演出及街頭佈佳音活動。有關詳情，請密切留意本團網站及臉書群組更新。如果我們的努力值得大家認同，請踴躍支持我們的《乘著歌聲的翅膀》贊助計劃，讓我們當中經濟能力稍遜、但對合唱音樂的熱情不輸任何人的團員（尤其尚處於求學階段的本科生），有機會將美妙的歌聲與世界各地的觀眾分享，為推廣香港合唱音樂共同努力。我衷心希望今晚的音樂能打進各位觀眾的心坎，亦在此保證，我們會以同樣認真、嚴謹的態度，將同樣美妙的音樂帶至世界各地。有各位的幫助，我們這小小的夢想才有機會成真。最後，請各位細心欣賞中大合唱團的表演。

Though not all Christmas songs and carols sung to date are composed by renowned composers, they are in general beautiful yet down-to-earth. We believe that music which stays popular through centuries of varying audiences must be of the finest quality, and we take it as our mission to share them with fellow music lovers. This year, we are honoured to have invited Howard McCrary, the legendary American jazz singer and composer, to rearrange familiar Christmas carols into a brand new jazzy style for us. In order to present the audiences with a refreshing experience of the crossover between choral and jazz repertoire, CU Chorus members have risen to the challenge, stretching the limits of our rhythmic and aural skills, striving to become a native spiritual chorus. We hope that our efforts can successfully transform into an enjoyable performance tonight. Christmas caroling is one of the major choral activities throughout the world; it means more than just another performance for us. Always ready to serve the Hong Kong community with our voices, CU Chorus will continue with our caroling performance both in hotels and on the streets this Christmas. Please refer to our website and Facebook page for the latest updates. If you appreciate our efforts in pursuing musical excellence, please do not hesitate to support us through our “On Wings of Song” patronage scheme. Since bringing Hong Kong choral music to the world is one of CU Chorus’ major missions, it is truly regrettable that some very passionate yet less economically resourceful members, particularly undergraduates, cannot join our tours due to financial constraints. I hope that our concert tonight can impress you with our seriousness and sincerity in making good music, and we promise to share our music in other parts of the world with equal dedication. Your kind endorsement can help our dream come true. Please enjoy the performance of the CU Chorus. Cheung Wai Man President (2012-13) CU Chorus Association

中大合唱協會二零一二至一三年度理事會會長張偉文 Howard McCrary 的爵士聖誕

香港中文大學合唱團團長獻辭

Message from Chairman, The Chinese University of Hong Kong Chorus What does Christmas mean to you? A time for gathering with family and friends? To celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ at the church? Or exchange of presents with your good friends? This year, CU Chorus will work together with Howard McCrary to present a set of Christmas songs rearranged in jazzy style, a refreshing take on the traditional tunes. I was so nervous when I got to know about the concert, as jazz music has always been improvising, it would be a great challenge for us to be performing with Howard in the view of choral singing. The harmony in jazz music is ever changing and the rhythm can also be quite complicated, yet I believe we will bring our audiences an unforgettable night with a fresh image.

聖誕節對你來說是怎樣的日子？跟家人、情人一起歡渡佳節？在聖堂慶祝耶穌的降生？或只是與好友交換禮物？今年，香港中文大學合唱團將會首次以爵士風格，演繹由 Howard McCrary重新編曲的一套聖誕歌，相信會給大家新鮮感。剛知道今年有這場表演的時候真的十分緊張，因為爵士音樂是一種即興音樂，所以在合唱的角度去看，我們合唱團跟 Howard合作是一大挑戰。爵士音樂的和弦進行千變萬化，而且節奏複雜，不過我相信這次音樂會將帶給觀眾一個難忘的夜晚以及給大家一個新鮮的形象。

In the three months from the beginning of semester to this moment, we have put in a lot of efforts to prepare for the concert; after all the rehearsals, we can finally share this Jazzy Christmas with all of you. Hope you enjoy the show tonight! Man Ho Yin Chairman (2012–2013) The Chinese University of Hong Kong Chorus

從開學到現在三個月期間，我們付出了很多時間精力籌備這場音樂會，終於能夠在今晚跟大家一起渡過這個爵士聖誕，請大家細心欣賞。香港中文大學合唱團二零一二至二零一三年度團長文浩然

A Jazzy Christmas with Howard McCrary

音樂總監獻辭

Message from Music Director 今晚是中大合唱團很多的「第一次」：第一次主辦自己的聖誕音樂會；第一次演出全爵士曲目；第一次為「乘著歌聲的翅膀」計劃舉行籌款音樂會；最重要的，當然是第一次與美國樂壇的傳奇人物 Howard McCrary 同台演出！回想年中與 Howard與 Ivy兩夫婦初次會面，其實也打定輸數，心想大不了對方婉拒然後有緣再會吧。所以，當 Howard一口答應演出邀請，且承諾為整場音樂會重新編曲，甚至動用自己的「人情牌」邀請其他爵士好手加盟演出，實在教我喜出望外：能夠有如此大師級人馬加盟演出，對團員及觀眾都是好事。的確，爵士音樂或是富爵士樂元素的流行曲我們也許聽過很多，但真正親身演繹，對我們大部份團員來說也是新鮮的事。託賴 Howard對我們諄諄善誘，讓我們能突破自己的框框，走入爵士樂的世界。希望大家會喜歡我們努力的成果 —為了征服爵士和聲，很多團員得日以繼夜夜以繼日地與樂譜及 Howard的 demo錄音為伴，才得以成功！大家今晚所見，絕非僅僅「每星期排練三小時」就能得到的結果。儘管這是一場以「聖誕」為主題的音樂會，但我與 Howard 在討論節目時都不約而同認為，聖誕節不應代表享樂或是消費，我們都希望透過這場音樂會，回歸聖誕節那足以跨越不同文化與宗教的真義：愛與和平。所以這次音樂會也選唱了 Howard 的作品《 Change the World》，讓大家在搶先享受佳節氣氛之餘，也能帶給大家一點啟示。願各位平安喜樂。謝謝。香港中文大學合唱團音樂總監兼指揮朱振威

Tonight marks many “firsts” for CU Chorus: The first Christmas concert we have presented on our own; The first performance with an all-jazz programme; The first fund-raising concert for “On Wings of Song” patronage scheme; And most importantly, the first collaboration with legendary American musician Howard McCrary!

Back in my first meeting with Howard and his wife Ivy in this summer, I dared not to hope that our proposal of collaboration would come to any fruition. To my pleasant surprise, not only did Howard accept the invitation to join our concert right away, he also promised to rearrange songs for the whole programme and to bring in other quality jazz musicians to the show. It is tremendously fortunate for both CU Chorus and the audiences to have such a high-calibre artist joining this performance. While we probably have all heard jazz music or jazzy pop songs, it is an uncharted territory for most of our members in terms of true musical expression in a jazzy style. Thanks to Howard and his guidance, we manage to venture out of the box and into the world of jazz music. I hope you would enjoy the fruit of our hard labour – many of our members had to practically live with the scores and Howard’s demo recordings days and nights to master the jazzy harmonies! The performance you witness tonight could not have been achieved with merely “three-hour weekly rehearsals”. Although the theme of this concert is “Christmas”, during the programme discussions Howard and I found that we both believe Christmas should not be a time of fun-seeking or spending; through this concert, we hope to bring back Christmas’ true meaning, the spirit that transcends cultures and religions: love and peace. Therefore, also included in the programme is Howard’s composition Change the World, offering a spark of inspiration amidst the seasonal joy. May peace be with you. Thank you. Leon Chu Music Director and Conductor The Chinese University of Hong Kong Chorus

Chorus Profile & Performers’ Biographies

香港中文大學合唱團

The Chinese University of Hong Kong Chorus 「…唱來熱情充沛，正是年輕人的精神可貴之處。」－李歐梵《明報》經過近四十年努力不懈追求卓越，香港中文大學合唱團（中大合唱團）已經成為香港其中一隊最具實力的大學合唱團。植根香港，放眼國際，在香港舞台耕耘之外，多年來已踏遍華南地區以至東南亞諸國。中大合唱團一直致力以高水準的演出，充滿創意的節目，向普羅大眾推廣與分享合唱藝術。中大合唱團於 1972 年由一班中大學生自發成立，早期由學生擔任指揮。九十年代起設立固定音樂總監兼指揮一職，歷任總監有伍德榮、葉長盛及現任朱振威。從參加學聯之夜歌唱比賽到每年主辦一場周年公演，現在中大合唱團每年演出活動已擴展至包括主辦周年音樂會、免費校園音樂會、海外交流演出、聖誕演出、指揮工作坊、公益外展演出不等。中大合唱團曾推出多個廣受歡迎的主題節目，內容多元化，不少外國作曲家及作品也藉著中大合唱團演出而引進香港樂壇。近年主題有推介世界各地特色作品的《聲音地圖》（ 2008）、演繹古今中外特色情歌的《愛．無處不在》（ 2009）、回歸合唱根本，展示不同風格聖樂作品的《爾名為聖》（ 2010）、全面介紹台灣最新合唱面貌的《台灣風情》（ 2011），以及精選當代美國作曲家韋塔克作品巡禮的《華麗之聲》（ 2012）。中大合唱團演出除了對本地合唱團開拓曲目發揮影響力，更藉著網絡將影響伸至全球 —2009年以色列《新消息報》專題報道，中大合唱團的一段 YouTube錄影在當時於世界各地猶太人間流傳，引發巨大迴響。從成立之始，推動香港合唱創作就是中大合唱團的使命之一。合唱團不斷邀請香港作曲家如胡銘堯、楊嘉輝、蘇梓安、鄧樂妍譜出新曲，現時維持一年一部作品的速度，為建立屬於香港的獨特合唱之聲而努力。 2008及 2009年，中大合唱團先後應邀出訪上海師範大學及彰化大葉大學舉行示範講座，向當地大學生介紹香港粵語合唱創作，大獲好評。多年來曾與中大合唱團合作的本地及海外藝人不計其數，近期例子有本地敲擊演奏家邵俊傑、作曲家楊嘉輝、台灣指揮家杜黑、古育仲、美國指揮家韓多普、美國爵士樂手 Howard McCrary 等。自七十年代起，中大合唱團持續與中國內地及東南亞各地合唱團作音樂交流，至今曾到訪城市包括北京、上海、台北、台南、馬尼拉、曼谷、新加坡、新山等。除交流活動，合唱團也多次應邀以客席演出者身份參與外地演出，如 2006年澳門國際音樂節及 2010年暹羅愛樂樂團馬勒第三交響曲泰國首演。為了打下更堅實的基礎，持續發展永不止息的藝術追求，2012年1 月合唱團以慈善團體有限公司形式成立「中大合唱協會」作為管治實體。透過藝術、管理、行政三部份的分工，讓源自中大、立足中大的中大合唱團，能夠在中大本科生、研究生及校友三方面的同心協力下，繼續翻過一座又一座的藝術高峰。 8

“CU Chorus were splendid in their collaboration with Siam Philharmonic in our ongoing complete Mahler Cycle. They sang like angels — just as the composer intended!” – Somtow Sucharitkul, Music Director of Siam Philharmonic After nearly 40 years’ pursuit of excellence, The Chinese University of Hong Kong Chorus (CU Chorus) has become one of the best local university choirs. Rooted in Hong Kong with a global view, CU Chorus has performed not only at the local stage, but also in various cities in southern China and southeast Asia. With its high quality performances and innovative programmes, CU Chorus is dedicated to promoting and sharing the choral art with the public. CU Chorus was founded in 1972 by a group of CUHK students. In the early days, the role of conductor was served by students. In the 1990s, the post Music Director and Conductor was established, and has been served chronologically by Dennis Ng, Yeh Cheung-shing, and currently Leon Chu. From a group that took part in joint-university singing contest by the Hong Kong Federation of Students, to one that organized annual performances, nowadays CU Chorus has developed its range of performances to include annual concerts, free campus concerts, overseas interflow performances, Christmas caroling, conducting workshops and charity outreach performances.

A Jazzy Christmas with Howard McCrary

CU Chorus presented a number of popular programmes with diverse themes, through which many foreign composers and their works were introduced to the Hong Kong music scene. Performances in recent years include: The Atlas of Voice (2008) with characteristic choral pieces from around the world; Love is All Around (2009) with featured love songs throughout the ages; Hallowed be Thy Name (2010) with a showcase of sacred music – the root of choral music – in various styles; Formosan Panorama (2011) with the newest outlook in Taiwanese choral music; and the most recent The Glamorous Voice (2012) with a focus on dazzling choral works by contemporary American composer Eric Whitacre. In addition to having an influence on local choirs in expanding their repertoire, CU Chorus’ performances also made an impact through the internet: a YouTube video of CU Chorus received coverage in an Israeli newspaper, Yedioth Ahronoth, for its wide circulation among Jewish communities worldwide, to great resonance. Since its establishment, one of CU Chorus’ missions is to promote local choral compositions. CU Chorus regularly commissions Hong Kong composers such as Dennis Wu, Samson Young, Andy So and Tang Lok-yin for new pieces. At the pace of one new piece per year, CU Chorus strives to help develop a choral voice unique to Hong Kong. In 2008 and 2009, CU Chorus was invited for demonstrative talks in Shanghai Normal University and Da-yeh University respectively, introducing Hong Kong Howard McCrary 的爵士聖誕

Cantonese choral compositions to mainland and Taiwanese students, receiving much acclaim. Over the years, CU Chorus has collaborated with numerous local and overseas artists. Recent examples include local percussionist Louis Siu, Taiwanese conductors Dirk Duhei and John Ku, American conductor Paul Hondorp, and American jazz musician Howard McCrary. Since the 1970s, CU Chorus has consistently engaged in interflow activities with choirs in mainland China and southeast Asia; cities visited include Beijing, Shanghai, Taipei, Tainan, Manila, Bangkok, Singapore and Johor Bahru. Beside interflow activities, CU Chorus was also invited to various guest performances overseas, including the 20th Macau International Music Festival in 2006, and the Thailand premiere of Mahler’s 3rd Symphony by Siam Philharmonic Orchestra in 2010. To lay a better foundation for its never-ending artistic pursuit, CU Chorus established charitable organization status with “CU Chorus Association” (a limited company) in January 2012. The new governing body, with its finer division of labour in artistic, management and administrative aspects, could facilitate the collaboration of CUHK undergraduates, postgraduates and alumni in their efforts to boost CU Chorus – a group coming from and basing in CUHK – to ever-greater artistic heights. 9

Howard McCrary 編曲∕鋼琴∕獨唱 Arrangement / Piano / Vocal

遊走於福音與通俗音樂，多才多藝的 Howard McCrary是備受尊崇的得獎歌手、創作人、監製與樂手，曾合作藝人盡是當代音樂界名人。 Howard McCrary過往的所有作品，都是結合了藝術與熱忱、技術與正能量。生於俄亥俄州揚斯敦， Howard從小在音樂中成長。在十兄弟姊妹之中， Howard與兩位兄弟及兩位姊妹組成了「 The McCrarys 」合唱團，以福音音樂出道。在七十年代初，合唱團已在美加各地演出，也為 Light Records灌錄了首張大碟《 Sunshine Day》。

1974年，當家人決定合唱團的歌路要從福音轉到通俗音樂， Howard決定作個人發展，也發掘出作為創作人、編曲人與伴奏的天份。他聯合監製的大碟《 S o G o o d 》讓他獲得格林美獎「最佳福音演繹（男歌手）」提名。在八十年代末， Howard時有跟隨不同傳教士穿州過省，而在 1987 年，他因著傑出福音歌曲創作獲 ASCAP艾靈頓公爵獎，也獲委約為布魯克林愛樂交響樂團創作《 Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow》。八十年代末至九十年代初， Howard的工作更見豐富：他在昆西鍾斯大賣專輯《 Back On The Block》擔任和音，也為米高積遜 1992 年的暢銷大碟《 Dangerous》之中「 Keep The Faith」一曲編寫和音合唱。 1993年他開始為 Chaka Khan擔任鍵盤手及音樂總監。之後，他與奧斯卡得獎者 Hans Zimmer合作，在電影《情繫我心》配樂中演唱。 Howard也參與了偶像歌手珍妮花露芙希域及 R&B組合 Changing Faces的唱片製作。

2005年 Howard移居香港，很快就投入本地樂壇。他在王敏德的首張爵士大樂隊專輯《 Cool Rhythm》中演出，也在電影《傷城》及《六樓後座 2之家屬謝禮》的配樂中演奏（更在後者中客串！）。 2008年他與閻惠昌及香港中樂團在作首次全國性演出，隨後又為香港中樂團譜寫《水是生命》一曲。作為本地福音音樂發展的推手， Howard參與了鍾氏兄弟《鐘聲》與《齊唱．吳秉堅之歌》的製作。 Traversing the worlds of gospel and secular music, multitalented Howard McCrary has built a solid reputation as an award-winning singer, songwriter, producer and musician whose resume includes some of the most prestigious and important artists in contemporary music. Howard McCrary brings a mix of artistry, enthusiasm, skill and positive energy to each and every project. Born in Youngstown, Ohio, Howard grew up in a decidedly musical atmosphere. One of ten siblings, Howard became a part of the family group known as The McCrarys with two of his brothers and two of his sisters. The team’s initial work was in the 12

gospel field. In the early ‘70s, the group performed throughout the U.S. and Canada, recording one album Sunshine Day for Light Records. In 1974, when the family decided to move from gospel to secular music, Howard decided to step out on his own, exploring his talents as a writer, arranger and accompanist. He co-produced the album So Good and was nominated for a Grammy for “Best Gospel Performance, Male” for that record. During the late ‘80s, Howard traveled intermittently with different evangelists; in 1987, he was given ASCAP’s Duke Ellington Award for most promising writer in gospel music and was commissioned to A Jazzy Christmas with Howard McCrary

write the piece Yesterday, Today And Tomorrow for the Brooklyn Philharmonic Symphony Orchestra. As the ‘80s ended and the ‘90s began, Howard’s workload accelerated considerably: he was featured as a background vocalist on Quincy Jones’ best-selling Back On The Block, as well as arranging vocal parts for the song Keep The Faith on Michael Jackson’s 1992 multi-platinum set Dangerous. He began working with Chaka Khan in 1993 as keyboardist and music director. Later, he worked with Oscar-winning composer Hans Zimmer on the film The Power Of One. Howard’s studio activities have included production work with teen idol Jennifer Love Hewitt and R&B group Changing Faces.

Howard moved to Hong Kong in 2005 and merged into the local music scene quickly. He featured in Michael Wong’s debut Big Band CD, Cool Rhythm. As a Hong Kong film debut, he performed on the soundtracks of the Chinese movies Confessions of Pain and Happy Funeral. He also performed with the Hong Kong Chinese Orchestra, conducted by Maestro Hubert Yan, in his first national appearance in China in 2008, and composed Water is Life for the Chinese orchestra. As a driving force of the local gospel music development, Howard participated in the production of The Chung Brothers’ album The Chimes and Sing the Gospel Songbook of Benjamin Ng.
