The acclaimed Shanghai Quartet and pipa (Chinese lute) virtuoso Wu Man unite to perform new works by contemporary Chinese composers. Called “wonderfully ferocious and illuminating” by The Washington Post, the Shanghai Quartet are recognized for their unique fluency in both Eastern folk and Western Classical idioms. Hailed as a leading ambassador of Chinese music, Wu Man is “the artist most responsible for bringing the pipa to the Western world” (Los Angeles Times).
