Tengyue Zhang Concert via Omni Foundation

Tengyue Zhang performs a live concert at St. Marks Lutheran Church in San Francisco, CA on February 22nd, 2021. This comes via the Omni Foundation online series and their Youtube channel. Opening act is Conor Padmanabhan and Zhang is later joined by violinist Strauss Shi. Fantastic playing by everyone and congrats to Conor Padmanabhan. I especially loved the Baroque set by Tengyue Zhang with amazing ornamentation and incredible rhythmic drive.
