- Wu Man, pipa
Composed and arranged from folk music sources by Wang Huiran (b. 1936)
Wu Man is an acclaimed performer on the pipa, a four-stringed Chinese lute with ancient
roots that, due in large part to her efforts, has become a leading instrument of
contemporary music in both East and West. Wu Man performs both traditional and
contemporary music on the pipa, and many new works have been commissioned specially
for her. She was a founding member of the Silk Road Ensemble, and has played an active
role in cross-cultural music making, in particular with members of China’s Uyghur
minority.
