I very much enjoyed yesterday's performance of Unsuk Chin's Šu, a concerto for sheng and orchestra, with the Seoul Philharmonic under Myung-Whun Chung and Wu Wei as soloist. Here's a short taster, which shows just how physical the sheng performance is — a full performance is available here.
Yesterday's performance is worth catching for Wu Wei's astonishing encore immediately afterwards.
