Beijing Guitar Duo Omni Concert

The Beijing Guitar Duo with Meng Su and Yameng Wang perform a live concert at St. Marks Lutheran Church in San Francisco, CA with repertoire by César Franck, Enrique Granados, and Astor Piazzolla. This comes via the Omni Foundation online series and their Youtube channel. Amazing performance as usual from the Beijing Guitar Duo. I had the pleasure of hearing them live a few years ago and was completely blown away by their combination of beautiful musicality along with next-level precision and clarity in their overall aesthetic as a duo.
