Lisa Ono is known as the "Queen of bossa nova" in China and her adoring public will no doubt be clamoring for tickets when she performs her first concert in the capital city this weekend.
The Japanese songbird is celebrating the 20th anniversary of her musical career and will take the stage at Beijing's Olympic Sports Center Gymnasium tomorrow, as part of her 2009 World Tour Live.
She will then fly south to play the Shanghai International Jazz Festival, appearing at the 8,000-seat Shanghai Grand Stage on Jan 16.
