On Sunday, the pre-college program of the Tianjin Juilliard School took its first step beyond Tianjin, launching a series of events at the Beijing Dahua City Center for the Performing Arts.
The event featured a master class and performance by renowned vocal instructor, mezzo-soprano Han Yinpei, who guided students through an enriching learning experience, while sharing her expertise in classical vocal performance with the young musicians.
During the master class, Han provided insightful instruction to three vocal students, emphasizing the importance of treating the human voice as an instrument. She spoke about the significance of mastering language and pronunciation while also encouraging students to immerse themselves in the emotional depth of each piece.
