Mourning for Prof. Wu Zuqiang
Honorary Advisor in the Honorary Committee of INTERKULTUR, World Choir Games and the World Choir Council passed away
INTERKULTUR is mourning for Prof. Wu Zuqiang, Honorary Advisor in the Honorary Committee of INTERKULTUR, World Choir Games and the World Choir Council. He passed away on March 14, 2022.
As the former Chairman of China Conservatory of Music and respected musician, Prof. Wu Zuqiang always supported the Choral Olympic movement and especially the choral development in China during the past decades. Prof. Wu Zuqiang, at that time, Honorary President of China Musicians Association, sent warm greetings to the 4th World Choir Games Xiamen in 2006 “Promote cooperation and development, sing for peace and friendship”. In 2010 during the 6th World Choir Games in Shaoxing, Prof. Wu Zuqiang accepted the invitation to be the Honorary Advisor in the Honorary Committee.
Apart from being a famous composer and music educator, Prof. Wu Zuqiang had been promoting and supporting the idea of bringing people peace and love through music for all these years. This seems more previous today than ever.
INTERKULTUR and the World Choir Council have lost a long-time friend and mentor. INTERKULTUR expresses its sincere condolences to his family, friends and beloved ones. His spirit and music will be remembered and passed on to the future generation.
