This concert will feature the sheng instrument, and is definitely not a concert to be missed by the sheng players :D The songs that are going to be played include premiere songs like "Zen" by local composer Benjamin Lim, Winter Hunting, The Winter Plum, Traumerei, Nasreddin's Medley and Tunes of Shanxi Opera.

2. Scenic Sounds of the Grassland

The two concerts would be rare and breathtaking solo recitals accompanied by Qu Dawei on the piano.
