Lunar New Year is a two-week-long festival celebrated across Eastern Asia that encourages family and friends to gather together. In this performance, with artistic guidance from our own Principal Bassoon Fei Xie, conductor Junping Qian leads the Minnesota Orchestra in music that honors family traditions and themes of unity and health. It features Assistant Concertmaster Rui Du, Gao Hong on pipa, jing hu master Zhengang Xie and yue qin master Mei Hu. This program is presented as part of The Great Northern.
