Wu Na - Deform From Within

Award-winning Guqin player Wu Na began her training at the age of nine. (Guqin is a seven-stringed ancient Chinese zither). After achieving success in her teens, she became the first musician in China to receive a Master's degree in Guqin performance.

Her dual (Chinese and western) musical education led her to create a new place for the Guqin in contemporary music. She has performed and recorded with jazz, rock, experimental and classical musicians in Asia, Europe and the US. Her recent critically acclaimed collaboration is with The Tea Rockers Quintet.

Deform From Within, her solo album, includes six original (and non-traditional) pieces. The album was produced by Lior Suliman and Tal Weiss.
