中國(guó)音樂家在美國(guó)被撞身亡，年僅35歲

據(jù)揚(yáng)子晚報(bào)，美國(guó)巴德學(xué)院的中國(guó)音樂指揮李梳曈近日在路邊換輪胎時(shí)，被一輛超速行駛的汽車撞倒，在醫(yī)院經(jīng)搶救無效去世。李梳曈的家人近日為其舉辦了告別儀式。

A 35-year-old conducting teacher at Bard College was killed on Feb 11 after exiting his broken-down car on the Taconic State Parkway, according to a statement from the New York State Police.

Li Shutong was struck by a passing truck while outside of his vehicle, which was "partially parked on the shoulder" in Clinton at mile marker 59, the police said.

He was transported to Mid-Hudson Regional Hospital with serious injuries and later succumbed to his injuries and was pronounced deceased.

Li was changing a flat tire on his way home from a rehearsal, according to Slipped Disc, a classical music news website.

巴德學(xué)院校長(zhǎng)里昂·波茨坦因（Leon Botstein）在悼詞中高度評(píng)價(jià)李梳曈：“梳曈是學(xué)院不可或缺的一員：一位杰出的音樂家、敬業(yè)的教師、慈愛的丈夫和父親，以及好朋友。我們特別為他感到驕傲——他是我們自己的畢業(yè)生，畢業(yè)后立即被美中音樂學(xué)院聘用，領(lǐng)導(dǎo)巴德民族室內(nèi)樂團(tuán)……通過他的音樂才華、巨大能量和不懈奉獻(xiàn)，他徹底改變了這個(gè)樂團(tuán)，并提升了它的地位。”

Bard president Leon Botstein said: "Shutong was an essential member of the Conservatory; a wonderful musician, a dedicated teacher, a loving husband and father, and a good friend. …Through his musicianship, enormous energy, and unflagging dedication, Shutong transformed the Chinese Ensemble and raised its profile in our community."

李梳曈1990年出生于內(nèi)蒙古鄂爾多斯市，早年主修工程專業(yè)，但自幼熱愛音樂。畢業(yè)后，他轉(zhuǎn)向音樂領(lǐng)域發(fā)展，并于2013年到美國(guó)新墨西哥大學(xué)深造，獲得音樂學(xué)士學(xué)位。

2019年，他進(jìn)入巴德學(xué)院音樂學(xué)院攻讀指揮專業(yè)研究生課程。該學(xué)院被認(rèn)為是美國(guó)頂尖音樂學(xué)府之一。2021年畢業(yè)后，他隨即受聘于巴德學(xué)院美中音樂學(xué)院，擔(dān)任助理指揮，負(fù)責(zé)巴德民族室內(nèi)樂團(tuán)的指揮，并在一年后升任音樂總監(jiān)。該樂團(tuán)以融合中西樂器演繹中國(guó)音樂而廣受關(guān)注。

According to the Bard College website, Li Shutong was born in 1990 in Ordos in North China's Inner Mongolia autonomous region. He initially studied engineering but had a lifelong passion for music. After graduation, he shifted his focus to music and went to the University of New Mexico in the United States in 2013, where he earned a bachelor's degree in music.

In 2019, he enrolled in the graduate program in conducting at the Bard College Conservatory of Music, one of the top music conservatories in the United States. After graduating in 2021, he was immediately hired by the Bard College US-China Music Institute as an assistant conductor, responsible for directing the Bard Chinese Ensemble. A year later, he was promoted to music director.

The ensemble is renowned for blending Chinese and Western instruments to perform Chinese music.

李梳曈還創(chuàng)立了“音樂家為音樂家”樂團(tuán)，并曾擔(dān)任阿爾伯克基交響樂團(tuán)及新墨西哥大學(xué)健康科學(xué)中心樂團(tuán)的首席指揮。

在美國(guó)音樂界看來，他是推動(dòng)中美音樂交流的重要青年代表人物。憑借卓越的音樂才華、充沛的藝術(shù)熱情和持續(xù)投入的努力，他顯著提升了巴德民族室內(nèi)樂團(tuán)的影響力與藝術(shù)水準(zhǔn)，為促進(jìn)中美音樂文化的深入交流作出了積極貢獻(xiàn)。
