TFF Rudolstadt, Germany's biggest folk, roots and world music festival, will feature China as the country in focus this year and present eight Chinese music acts from July 5-8.

Among them are not only traditional groups, such as Jiangsu Province Kunqu Opera Troupe and Xinjiang Makit Dolan Muqam Troupe, but also the rock band Second-Hand Roses and "free folk" singer Xiao He.
