About speaker：陈擎先生在担任广州交响乐团团长之前，就已在乐团担任双簧管声部首席长达17年之久。作为一位活跃于舞台的演奏家，陈擎团长曾在中国首演了理查·斯特劳斯《D大调双簧管协奏曲》等经典双簧管曲目，为其执棒乐团协奏的不乏世界知名的指挥家，如已故英国指挥家、早期音乐巨擘克里斯托弗·霍格伍德，并被著名指挥家阿什肯纳齐盛赞为“世界级的演奏家”。他曾录制过多张独奏及重奏专辑，许多中国的音乐爱好者和学生正是通过这些唱片了解和喜欢上双簧管这种乐器。陈擎团长在2014年被中宣部评为全国文化名家暨“四个一批”人才，同年还被广东省委宣传部评为“广东特支计划”宣传思想文化领军人才。他目前还担任广东星海演艺集团管理委员会副主任，以及中国音协交响乐团联盟副主席、广东省音乐家协会副主席和广东省管乐协会副主席。
