PLYMOUTH: City Museum and Art Gallery

THU 20TH NOV, 2008 12.30pm

International soloist and composer Guo Yue is well known in the music world for the soaring beauty and descriptive poetry of his Chinese bamboo flutes. Made from the simplest of natural materials, cut from the forests of the Sichuan Province, the sound is created by a tiny translucent paper taken from inside the bamboo, which covers one hole on the flute and vibrates with the movement of breath. Both fragile and powerful, it is a sound that can traverse mountains and touch the soul.

This concert will begin at 1pm and will last for approximately 1 hour.
