Best known for winning Grammy and Oscar for composing the music behind 2001’s “Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon,” Tan Dun has returned to New York for a special concert. His first trip to New York was more than 20 years ago to attend Colombia. The Chinese classical composer has returned to perform alongside three other composers who have shaped his career. This video shows Maya Beiser, named the ‘cello goddess’ by The New Yorker Magazine, performed with the Ying Quartet. Their selections were composed by Academy and Grammy award winning Tan Dun, his accomplished contemporaries Zhou Long and Chen Yi, and the man who mentored them all: 91-year-old former professor of Columbia University Zhou Wenzhong.
