She is an internationally acclaimed virtuoso on the pipa and guzheng. In our show she played the pipa, a short-necked Chinese lute prominent in Chinese opera orchestras and as a solo instrument. All over the world Fang is known as the ‘empress of pipa’. Liu Fang was born in 1974 in Kunming in the province of Yunnan, China. She began playing the pipa at the age of 6 and by 11 she performed before Queen Elizabeth II. Her studies at the Shanghai Conservatory of Music broadened her musical range to include the study of the guzheng. Since 1999, she has performed hundreds of solo concerts featuring Chinese traditional and classical music. About the traditional ‘Wild geese descending on the sandy beach’ she explained: ‘Seeing the wild geese flying freely and elegantly in the sky and then descending on the sandy beach, relaxed and playful, one cannot but feel the beauty and harmony of nature. This piece entails the Taoist philosophy.’ More music: https://www.vpro.nl/vrijegeluiden This video was recorded in 2008 in Het @Bimhuis Amsterdam for VPRO Vrije Geluiden: music program made by the Dutch public broadcast organization VPRO    / vrijegeluiden     / vrijegeluiden   twitter, instagram @vrijegeluiden #chinesemusic #liufang #pipa #guzheng #vrijegeluiden
