Music works, such as Dance of the Yi People composed by Wang Huiran in 1960, and Sun of Homeland composed by pipa player Liu Dehai, were performed.

"I'm very proud and happy to see many young Chinese people love to play the pipa. Arts education is a key aspect of what we do as professional musicians and educators. Teaching inspires not only the students, but also the teachers in many ways," said Zhang.

She added that when the Forbidden City Concert Hall invited her to launch the pipa summer camp, it was the first summer camp at the Gateway to Music festival dedicated to a traditional Chinese instrument.
