Middlebury College’s Performing Arts Series presents pipa virtuoso Wu Man and the Shanghai Quartet in a concert entitled “A Night in Ancient and New China”, plus a two-day residency. The mixed-repertoire concert includes a new multimedia work by composer Zhao Jiping, in collaboration with son Zhao Lin, performing some of his famous scores of Chinese cinema; a suite of traditional Chinese folk songs arranged by 2nd violinist Yi-Wen Jiang; a solo pipa work; and Beethoven’s opus 95. The series collaborates with campus partners in Music, Chinese, and Film & Media Culture to present engagement activities such as film screenings, chamber music workshops, and a pre-concert lecture.
