A different sound of music

Chinese folk singer Gong Linna hopes to give audiences in Beijing a new perspective of her music. Backed by her husband, German composer Robert Zollitsch, Gong hopes to show the artistic value of the pieces, which she feels is often missed. Chen Nan reports.

In 2011, Chinese folk singer Gong Linna's lyric-less song, Tan Te, or Perturbed, was one of the most controversial and talked-about songs on the internet.

The tune, which broke all the rules of Chinese folk music, brought Gong instant fame.
