Voices of China

BBC Two
on BBC Two England

Professor Shen Xiang has been teaching Western music in China since 1947, bringing considerable international recognition to the work of the Central Conservatory of Music in Peking - a city of striking contrasts. His students achieved extraordinary success in the 1985 Cardiff Singer of the World competition and the Mirjam Helin competition in Finland. As well as overcoming the consequences of the Cultural Revolution, the Chinese have conquered what is a totally different musical language, and leamt new methods of voice production.
