Western Classical Music Influence in China

Posted Tuesday, April 3, 2007 at 10h44 in Music

The New York Times has an interesting article on the increasing prevalence of Western classical music in China, including the reasons for its popularity and the challenges classical music students face growing up in China. It’s fascinating to me, having been both Chinese and a classical music student for as long as I can remember.
