A concert gala of the second China Youth Music Competition, based on the format of a contest in Germany, has just been staged in Beijing. Chen Nan reports.
When he finished playing Claude Debussy's Toccata from Pour le Piano at a concert gala recently, 11-year-old Jiang Yicheng stood up and bowed to the audience, who gave him a long and warm round of applause.
"I enjoy playing the piano and I like playing with other musicians," says Jiang, who also performed Camille Saint-Saens' Oboe Sonata in D Major, Op 166, along with 12-year-old oboist Zhi Yi.
