China, heir to Mozart?

Western classical music may have its future in the East, Chen Nan reports.

Is China the future of Western classical music? In the eyes of Jiang Tao, a veteran figure in the development of China's pop music industry for nearly two decades, the answer is yes.

As the general manager of Chia Tai Music Group, one of the earliest music-production companies, which was founded in 1992 in Beijing, Jiang has switched his attention from the pop-dominated market to cultivating Chinese classical musicians during the past 10 years.
