SUMMARY:Chinese Musicians Blend Eastern and Western Instruments and Sounds 
 at CMA
DESCRIPTION:\nFri 4/11 @ 7:30-9PM\nThe Chinese Musicians Association of Nor
 th America (CMA-NA) brings together Chinese musicians living in north Amer
 ica to create together.\nSix of these musicians from across the U.S. and C
 anada\, with backgrounds in different regions of China\, are coming togeth
 er at the Cleveland Museum of Art’s Gartner Auditorium to present a prog
 ram called “The Sound of Blooming: A Musical Tale of Spring.” They inc
 lude a member of the Cleveland Orchestra’s first violin section (Zhan Sh
 u)\, artists who have worked with Yo-Yo Ma and the Silk Road Project\, and
  faculty members from Bard College Conservatory of Music and the Cleveland
  Institute of Music. They play piano\, organ and violin\, as well as the t
 raditional Chinese instruments pipa\, erhu and guzheng.\nAmong the pieces 
 on their program is a world premiere of a new composition created for this
  specific concert by composer Wang Lu\, an association professor of music 
 at Brown University. At this point it’s titled simply “Wang Lu’s New
  Composition” and described as a merging of “two ancient instruments f
 rom East and West into an awe-inspiring musical experience.” Other piece
 s draw on traditional Chinese cultural influences as well as western ones\
 , as the combination of instruments would lead you to expect.\n Get ticke
