Six Chinese musicians, Li Xiangting (guqin), Song Fei (erhu), Shi Haibin (suona), Zhang Qiang (pipa), Su Chang (guzheng) and Yuan Feifan (dizi), will collaborate for a night of traditional Chinese music.

    The guqin is a plucked seven-string Chinese musical instrument of the zither family. It has been played since ancient times. The erhu is a two-stringed bowed musical instrument, more specifically a spike fiddle. A very versatile instrument, the erhu is used in both traditional and contemporary music arrangements, such as in pop, rock, jazz, etc. and makes a calm sound.

    The suona is a Chinese double-reeded horn. It has a distinctively loud and high-pitched sound, and is used frequently in traditional Chinese music ensembles, particularly those that perform outdoors.

    The pipa is a four-stringed Chinese musical instrument, belonging to the plucked category of instruments. Sometimes called the Chinese lute, the instrument has a pear-shaped wooden body with a varying number of frets ranging from 12 to 26. The guzheng, also known as the Chinese zither, is a plucked string instrument with a more than 2,500-year history. The dizi is widely used in many genres of Chinese folk music. Most dizi are made of bamboo, which explains why dizi are sometimes known by simple names such as the Chinese bamboo flute.
