Violinist Lyu Siqing gives public recital in Beijing

Lu Jingyi, a piano teacher at the Central Conservatory of Music in Beijing, accompanied Lyu on the piano.

It marked the third time for Lyu, who was inaugurated as a professor at the Beijing Institute of Culture Innovation and Communication attached to the university, to hold a recital at the university since 2016, as an act of public art education.

Lyu was the first Asian violinist to win first place at the prestigious Paganini International Violin Competition in Italy in 1987.

According to him, it was the first time in a month that he had played standing up throughout the entire concert. He recently had a muscle injury in his left leg and has not fully recovered yet.
