Colombia roots for China against epidemic with concert

As the outbreak of coronavirus-related pneumonia disrupts lives and disheartens people in China, Colombian artists staged a Chinese music concert at the Alberto lleras Music Hall in the Colombian capital, Bogota, on Monday to boost the morale of the Chinese people, especially those battling against the epidemic on the front line in Wuhan.

Co-hosted by the University of Los Andes and the Confucius Institute, the concert featured Colombian pianist Mauricio Arias Esguerra, violinist Leonardo Federico Hoyos, tenor Andrés Silva, and mezzo-soprano Juana Monsalve.
