A concert marking the 60th anniversary of the late Taiwan singer, Teresa Teng, will be held in Beijing. Organized by the Teresa Teng Foundation and produced by veteran musician Lao Zai, the concert will have two young singers, Chen Jia and Wang Jing, whose voices are similar to the late singer. They will sing Teng's classic songs. Born and raised in a small town outside Taipei, Teng's musical talents were discovered at an early age. She left junior high school to pursue a singing career full time. The star was one of the most influential stars from Taiwan to introduce pop music to the Chinese mainland in the 1970s and 1980s. She died of an asthma attack in Thailand in 1995, at the age of 42.
