🎶 Music has a magical way of weaving itself into our lives, and for Yang Yalin, a high school student, the guzheng’s melodies are the soundtrack of her story.
"Music has become an inseparable part of my life," says Yang Yalin, a high school student and guzheng player – performer of one of China’s most ancient stringed instruments.
This year, Yang took part in the guzheng competition at the 15th Chinese Golden Bell Award for Music 🎹—the highest honor in the Chinese music scene. Held in Chengdu, Sichuan Province, from October 18 to 29, this festival drew top talents from across the Chinese mainland.
Although she didn’t reach the semifinals, the experience became a bright beacon on her musical journey, reminding her of her deep love for traditional Chinese music. 🌟
Yang’s story shows that every note strummed on the guzheng is more than a melody—it’s a bridge between ancient culture and modern dreams. Keep your ears tuned for the next chapter in her journey! 🎵
