The conceptual and multifaceted composer/conductor Tan Dun has made an indelible mark on the world's music scene with a creative repertoire that spans the boundaries of classical music, multimedia performance, and Eastern and Western traditions. Tan Dun's individual voice has been heard by wide audiences. His first internet symphony, which was commissioned by Google/You-Tube, has reached over 15 million people online. His Organic Music Trilogy of Water, Paper and Ceramic Concerti has frequented major concert halls and festivals. China Trio consists of three outstanding Chinese musicians: violinist Lyu Siqing, cellist Qin Liwei, and pianist Sun Yingdi. Each of the three musicians won top awards from Paganini International Violin Competition (Lyu), International Tchaikovsky Competition (Qin), and International Franz Liszt Piano Competition (Sun), which brought them high reputation around the world. They share not only similar experiences in professional music performance, but also the same life style and career goal, making them close friends of each other and well-collaborated partners on stage. With the love to chamber music and the willingness to promote chamber music, the three musicians have founded the China Trio.
