Often hailed as a “living fossil in the history of Chinese music”, Nanyin is among the oldest surviving forms of Han Chinese music and is recognised by UNESCO as part of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity. With its refined structures and timeless melodies, Nanyin preserves the spirit of ancient Central Plains music while embodying the profound cultural heritage of the Minnan region.

The internationally acclaimed Quanzhou ensemble Dianshui Nanyue will host a cultural sharing session following their appearance at the Festival’s World Music Weekend, and you’re invited to experience its compelling fusion of tradition and contemporary artistry.
