A Beijing festival concert brings together leading musicians, who imagine ancient Chinese intellectuals' spiritual lives, Chen Nan reports.
The songs were meant to make listeners think about thinkers.
Chinese-American cellist Yo-Yo Ma, pipa (lute) player Wu Man, sheng (Chinese flute) player Wu Tong and Silk Road Ensemble musicians joined the Hangzhou Philharmonic Orchestra to stage a performance under the baton of Chinese conductor Yu Long on Friday to conclude the 14-day Beijing International Music Festival.
