Introduction

For more than 50 years, Zhang Weiliang's thoughts and actions are to explore how tradition and modernity fit each other. 
In his eyes, there is no gap between modernity and tradition, 
and there is a possibility of dialogue between Western music and Chinese folk music everywhere.

touch the depths of traditional Chinese music, feel the rhythm of the thousand-year-old culture, 
and present a multi-integrated new compilation of Chinese music.
