Composer Shi Fuhong is set to showcase five chamber music works at the Central Conservatory of Music, where she first studied and now teaches. Chen Nan reports.
Chinese composer Shi Fuhong's work, The Mountain Spirit, will make its debut in Padova, Italy, on March 8. During the concert, which is to celebrate International Women's Day, the piece will be performed by one of the most popular Italian chamber orchestras, I Solisti Veneti, under the baton of conductor and orchestra founder, maestro Claudio Scimone.
Shi's work, The Mountain Spirit, stood out among hundreds of works shortlisted by the Adkins Chiti Foundation, a nonprofit organization which was founded in 1978 and is dedicated to supporting young composers worldwide.
