In this edition, we get up-close with Shang Jingya, a guzheng performer and composer with the Beijing Peking Opera Theatre, about her innovative way of blending her style of music into Peking opera.
Recently, Shang held her major concert at the National Centre for the Performing Arts, the country’s top theater.
Our host Tony Reid spoke with her to learn more about her motivation, challenges and expectations for this inventive crossover, as well as some of her musical works presented at the concert.
