Chinese violinist Lyu Siqing will talk about his musical journey this afternoon. No sign-up is necessary. Lyu was the first Asian violinist to win the first prize in the prestigious Paganini International Violin Competition in Italy in 1987. When he was 11, Lyu was selected by Yehudi Menuhin to study at the Yehudi Menuhin School in England. Hailed by Strad as “an outstanding talent,” Lyu has given performances in more than 40 countries. Those performances have taken him to some of the world’s most prestigious concert halls, including Musikverein in Vienna, Avery Fisher Hall and Alice Tully Hall in New York City.
