Holland Baroque has an affinity for sound artists for whom improvising and composing are second nature. Wu Wei is such a musician. Incredibly virtuosic and driven, Wu Wei has brought his instrument to all parts of the world as a true ambassador. The sheng is the Chinese mouth organ that evokes three thousand years of Chinese music culture and is a small wonder of harmony, melody and rhythmic possibilities.
