中国每年举行的全国两会具有重大的国际意义，全国两会是世界了解中国的窗口，也是中国向世界展示自己的重大时刻。全国两会所取得的成果不仅关乎中国，也关系到全球发展，中国的繁荣进步将为世界经济发展作出贡献。

我有着一张外国面孔，我是外国人，但我不是外人，已在中国生活、工作了16年。中国发展迅速，我不仅参与其中，也从中感到了中华民族的复兴。每年的全国两会，我会和中国普通民众一样，关注那些与生活有保障、日子有奔头有关的话题。今年我关注的是民生、教育、持续开放。

China’s annual Two Sessions (NPC &CPPCC,i.e.,National People’s Congress and Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference) is of great international significance.Two Sessions are a window for the world to learn more about China and a significant moment for China to present itself to the world.The achievements of Two Sessions are not only related to China but also to global development.China’s prosperity and progress will contribute to the world’s economic growth.

With an unfamiliar face,I am a foreigner but not an outsider.Having lived and worked in China for 16 years,I have participated in and felt the rejuvenation of the Chinese nation with its rapid development.During Two Sessions,I always focus on topics closely linked to a guaranteed life and a promising future,just like the general public in China.I focus on people’s livelihood,education and sustainable opening up this year.

人民幸福安康是推动高质量发展的最终目的

此次全国两会期间习近平主席在参加十四届全国人大一次会议江苏代表团审议时强调，必须以满足人民日益增长的美好生活需要为出发点和落脚点，把发展成果不断转化为生活品质，不断增加人民群众的获得感、幸福感、安全感。我亲历了新时代以来这十年中国的伟大变革，包括全面建成小康社会，全国近一亿贫困人口摆脱绝对贫困以及改善生态环境、医疗卫生和通信条件等。美育精神也作为人民美好生活的需要在发生变化，作为艺术教育工作者，我见证了近十年中国高等艺术教育的蓬勃发展。中国政府发布的关于艺术教育和素质教育的文件促进了艺术教育更大规模地发展，使艺术教育呈现出向更广泛、更普及拓展的趋势。这种惠及大众的审美教育的发展，促进了人文素养教育的发展，这些美育教育的精神及成果已经作用在民众生活和工作的方方面面，有着不可替代的作用。这些年中国人民焕发出的踔厉奋发及主动精神，不断把对美好生活的向往变成现实。

The happiness and well-being of the people are the ultimate goals of promoting high-quality development

During Two Sessions this year,when attending the deliberation of the Jiangsu delegation at the first session of the 14th National People’s Congress,President Xi Jinping stressed that we must make meeting the people’s ever-growing expectation for a better life the starting point and goal,transform the development outcomes into the quality of life,and continuously strengthen the people’s sense of gain,happiness,and security.I have witnessed significant changes in China this decade since the new era,including building a moderately prosperous society in all respects,lifting nearly 100 million people out of absolute poverty,improving the ecological environment,health care and communication conditions,etc.The spirit of aesthetic education is also changing as people expect a better life.As an art educator,I have witnessed the vigorous development of China’s higher art education in the past decade.The documents issued by the Chinese govermment on art education and quality education have promoted the development of art education on a larger scale,showing the trend of expanding art education to a broader and more popular perspective.Aesthetic benefiting the general public has improved the development of humane attainment education.The spirit and achievements of this aesthetic education have played an irreplaceable role in all aspects of the public’s life and work.Over the years,the proactive nature of forging ahead with enterprise and the grit of the Chinese people have continued to turn expectations for a better life into reality.

中国始终坚持高水平对外开放

今年的全国两会要求推动高质量共建“一带一路”，促进各领域交流合作不断深化。2013年，习近平主席着眼人类前途命运及中国和世界发展大势，提出“一带一路”倡议，今年是该倡议提出十周年。在过去的十年里，“一带一路”已成为近年来规模最大、范围最广的国际合作平台，为构建全球伙伴关系提供了一条团结之路。中国在国际合作上不断开辟新路径，为世界经济发展提供新机遇。作为文艺教育工作者，我也亲历了“一带一路”共建下的中国与欧洲音乐文化交流与互鉴，感受到“一带一路”倡议带来的很多变化。音乐教育在“促进民心相通，提供人才支撑”方面具有独特优势和重要价值，2017年，在中国教育部国际司支持下，中央音乐学院发起“一带一路”沿线国家音乐教育联盟，至今联盟成员已增至61个，取得了丰硕的成果。例如，开展了多样化的“一带一路”音乐教育交流与演出，创作并演出了一批“一带一路”原创音乐作品，组织开展了多个“一带一路”音乐和音乐教育研究课题，等等。“一带一路”音乐教育联盟的成立，就是在音乐领域促进交流、促进发展、促进互相理解，在不同的音乐文化间搭建起互相沟通的桥梁，汇聚各方力量，为推动区域教育开放、交流、融合提供了契机，建立了可持续的交流合作长效机制，实现了沿线国家共同发展。“一带一路”倡议中各个领域取得的成果，说明世界上大多数国家积极认可中国梦，愿意加深对中国的了解，并在本国发展中借鉴中国经验，从而构建人类命运共同体。

China always promotes a high-standard opening up

During Two Sessions this year,focusing on promoting the high-quality co-construction of Belt and Road and deepening the exchanges and cooperation in various fields.In 2013,President Xi Jinping proposed Belt and Road Initiative with an eye on the future and destiny of humankind and the development trend of China and the world.This year marks the 10thanniversary of the initiative.Over the past decade,Belt and Road Initiative has become the largest and most comprehensive international cooperation platform in recent years,providing a path of solidarity for building global partnerships.China has continuously opened up new directions in international cooperation,providing new opportunities for world economic development.As a literary and artistic educator,I have experienced the musical and cultural exchanges and mutual appreciation between China and Europe under the Belt and Road Initiative and have felt many changes brought by the initiative.Music education has unique advantages and essential value in “promoting people-to-people exchanges and providing talent support”.In 2017,under the support of the International Division of the Ministry of Education,the Music Education Alliance across the “Belt and Road”was launched by the Central Conservatory of Music,its member has increased to 61,achieving fruitful results.For example,diversified exchanges and performances of Belt and Road music education have been carried out;several original Belt and Road music works have been created and performed;lots of Belt and Road music education research topics have been organized and implemented.The establishment of the Music Education Alliance across the “Belt and Road” promotes exchanges,development,and mutual understanding in the field of music,builds communication bridges among different music cultures and gathers all forces.It is an opportunity to promote regional education’s opening,exchange,and integration and establish a sustainable long-term mechanism of exchanges and cooperation for countries’joint development along the road.The achievements of the initiative in various fields show that most countries actively recognize the Chinese Dream and are willing to deepen their understanding of China and learn from China’s experience in their development,thus building a community with a shared future for humankind.

加快建设高质量教育体系

习近平主席强调，坚持以人民为中心发展教育，加快建设高质量教育体系，发展素质教育，促进教育公平。作为文艺教育工作者，这和我长期在中国工作中的所见所感是一致的。2019年，根据社会发展、科技发展趋势，中央音乐学院在原有音乐科技基础上，创新提出音乐和人工智能融合，与一批全国顶尖人工智能专家合作，创建了“音乐人工智能与音乐信息科技学科”。2021年，中央音乐学院与中国人工智能学会联合主办世界音乐人工智能大会，大会汇聚了全球音乐人工智能顶尖专家；2022年，中央音乐学院人工智能系两篇论文被国际音乐信息检索顶级会议ISMIR 2022录用。智能时代，教育要与科技发展进步同行同向，加快建设高质量教育体系，这一系列成果正体现了“守正创新”，一方面守住中国的传统与文化的根脉，让带有中国基因的传统文化根植在所有人心中；另一方面又敢于去创新，在坚守文化内核基础上前进与发展，与时俱进，吸收外来优秀文化，面向未来。

我真切地感受到中国高质量发展的速度，令人赞叹！中国政府对于社会各个领域的开放与发展、政策与支持、交流与融合，都为国内外人士提供了精彩纷呈且多元的舞台！同时，我也相信新征程上的中国，将同世界分享更多发展机遇，向着美好未来踔厉奋发！

Move faster to build a high-quality education system

President Xi Jinping stressed that we would continue to follow a people-centered approach to developing education and move faster to build a high-quality educational system.we would develop quality education and promote equality in education.As a literary and artistic educator,it is consistent with what I have seen and felt in my long-term work in China.In 2019,according to the development of society and the development trend of science and technology,the Central Conservatory of Music innovatively proposed the integration of music and artificial intelligence (AI) based on original music technology.It cooperated with a group of top AI experts in China to create the discipline of Music AI and Information Technology.In 2021,the Central Conservatory of Music and the Chinese Association for Artificial Intelligence co-hosted the Summit on Music Intelligence,bringing together the top music AI experts worldwide.In 2022,two papers from the Department of AI of the Central Conservatory of Music were published by ISMIR 2022,the leading conference of international retrieval.In the age of intelligence,we should go together with the development and progress of science and technology.This series of achievements embody “uphold fundamental principles and break new ground.” On the one hand,we should keep the roots of Chinese tradition and culture,letting the traditional culture with China genes rooted in everyone’s hearts;on the other hand,we should dare to innovate,advance and develop based on adhering to the culture core,keep pace with the times,absorb what is best and face the future.

I sincerely feel the speed of China’s high-quality development is unique! The Chinese government’s opening and development,policies and support,exchanges and integration in all areas of society have provided outstanding and diverse stages for people at home and abroad! I believe that China,on its new journey,will share more development opportunities with the world and forge a better future with enterprise and fortitude!
