Join the Cleveland Chinese Music Ensemble as it performs in the beautiful, spacious rotunda of the Hudson Library & Historical Society in Hudson, Ohio, celebrating the 2013 Chinese New Year (the Year of the Snake). The concert is part of the Hudson Library & Historical Society's Music Series.
The performance will feature a selection of favorite Chinese New Year melodies, performed on traditional instruments including dizi (bamboo flute), sheng (mouth organ), erhuand gaohu (fiddles), pipa (pear-shaped lute), yueqin (moon lute), guzheng (zither), gongs, drums, and other percussion instruments.
The ensemble will be joined for several selections by vocalist Xue "Snow" Yu of Qingdao, Shandong, China; and martial arts master Shifu Gary Harris of the Center for Body-Mind Harmony of Tallmadge, Ohio for a special performance of Yin Fu style baguazhang and Seven Star Praying Mantis-style wushu with live musical accompaniment.
The event is free and open to the public and no tickets are required; arrive early for the best seats.
