To celebrate the Chinese Year of the Horse in 2014, London’s East-West fusion band Yin Yang Collective will perform a transnational celebratory sheaf of New Year music from China, UK, Japan, France and Greece.
Featured East Asian instruments will be the erhu, guzheng, yangqin, xiao, koto, shamisen, taegum and changgo alongside the European piano and cello. Devoted to developing the understanding of Eastern and Western traditions, the Yin Yang Collective performs traditional music forms as well as collaborative pieces including an ever-expanding Folk Song Suite forging links between East and West folk traditions.
