Hither & thither, the majesty of a zither
"Knowledge doesn't belong to one person; it belongs to mankind. We must preserve it and share the resources we have so we can pass them down to ensuing generations."
In 2012 in conjunction with the Royal Danish Academy of Music, the Central Conservatory of Music established the world's first Music Confucius Institute in Copenhagen.
Mi Xuanye, a young but experienced teacher at the Music Confucius Institute, has been working with the conservatory in overseas cultural exchanges and yangqin education since she studied for a master's degree at the conservatory between 2014 and 2016.
Overseas, musicians work with local schools in offering students Chinese music appreciation courses and basic training in folk instruments. In those courses she has found the enthusiasm of some foreign students for Chinese dulcimers inspirational.
