Violinist to play first fiddle during wind band tour

Young Chinese-American violinist Gao Xiang and the University of Michigan Symphony Band will tour more than six Chinese cities, including Beijing and Shanghai, in May. Acclaimed US conductor Michael Haithcock will hold the baton.

The series will present the latest works of three world-class composers with the University of Michigan, which is widely considered a leader of the modern American wind band movement that was born in 1927.
