The ancient Chinese believed music could purify people's minds.
Test that theory one yourself while enjoying traditional Chinese music with the Dallas Hua Yun Chinese Orchestra at 7:30 p.m. Friday, October 18, at the Allen Public Library. Sophia Liu will be a guest soloist.
Dedicated to Sino-American cultural exchange, Dallas Hua Yun Chinese Orchestra is the most prominent Chinese music group in the DFW metroplex. Under the direction of James Wang, the band features a variety of Chinese instruments, including erhu (and its varieties gaohu, jinghu, banhu, zhonghu), pipa, guzheng, ruan series, bamboo flute, sheng, dulcimer, liuqin and others.
The orchestra, which has held an annual concert at the University of Texas at Dallas since 2014, promotes Chinese traditional music education and inspires the pleasure of Chinese music with international audiences. It serves the community through many local events such as the Plano AsiaFest, Crow Museum’s Chinese Spring Festival and other venues.
Born in Beijing China, the director James Wang has been performing since primary school and has been conducting orchestras since high school.
Sponsored by the Allen Public Library, the concert is free. The library is located at 300 N. Allen Dr. Call 214-509-4911 for additional information.
