Wen Zhao and Di Zhang at Briton House Feb

Wen Zhao and Di Zhang celebrate Lunar New Year  

With their beautiful instruments and virtuoso musical skills, Wen Zhao (pipa) and Di Zhang (dulcimer) exude joy and energy both as they perform, and as they talk about their music. Both musicians have performed globally, both as soloists and in ensembles.  Wen Zhao has been collaborating with plucked string artists from around the world on tour in Europe.

In February they were featured artists in seven Concerts in Care performances, in celebration of the Lunar New Year.  Seniors in long-term care, retirement homes, and those from day programs who experienced their concert on Zoom were astonished by the colours and expression of the music and instruments.  They asked so many questions, and applauded enthusiastically.

“This concert was amazing, everyone here loved it so much. The musicians were very flawless and they were also super nice and so sweet to the residents. Thank you so so much.”
– Susan Blye, Briton House
