On February 5, 2026, the recruitment for the Shanhai Chinese Chorus was successfully held at the Confucius Institute, University of Dhaka. The event attracted over 50 participants, with many music and Chinese language lovers actively signing up. Twenty-three candidates from different backgrounds took the stage one by one, and 16 of them—demonstrating strong artistic passion and singing skills—passed the evaluation and successfully joined the chorus. Dr.Yang Hui, the Chinese Director of the Confucius Institute at University of Dhaka, extended her congratulations and a warm welcome to the new members in her speech, expressing her hope that the Chorus would continue to use the power of music to connect the hearts of the people of China and Bangladesh.
The CIDU Shanhai Chinese Chorus was established in February 2025 as Bangladesh’s first Chinese chorus. Over the past year, the Chorus has been invited to perform at several significant events, including the “China-Bangladesh People-to-People Exchange Year Yunnan Education and Health Exhibition” and the “Unveiling Ceremony of the China Book Corner in Bangladesh and ‘Reading China’ China-Bangladesh Youth Exchange.” Additionally, the Chorus has achieved remarkable success in various international competitions. For instance, their documentary “Sailing Across Cultures: The Story of Shanhai, Bangladesh’s First Chinese Chorus” won Third Prize in the 2025 CI Moments Global Short Video Collection Event. Their performance of “Spring Outing” won the “Best MV” award in “2025 Sing&Learn Chinese in Tune with Nature”, organized by the Center for Language Education and Cooperation, Ministry of Education, China. In January 2026, the successful hosting of the “Voice Across Mountains and Seas, Hearts Connected between China and Bangladesh” – 2026 Chinese New Year Concert further brought widespread attention to this young chorus.
The successful recruitment is set to inject new vitality into the development of the Chorus. Moving forward, the Shanhai Chinese Chorus will continue to express emotions through music, convey beauty through harmony, and sing new songs of friendship between China and Bangladesh.
