On October 14, a unique music feast was staged there. Tu Shanxiang, a famous pipa player active in the world music scene and living in Japan for many years, moved the audience's heartstrings with his superb skills, bringing a compound enjoyment of sight, hearing and soul. 涂善祥，这位来自江西的艺术家，从艺已经54载，应邀在世界三十二个国家举办音乐会，演出超过3200场次，这份对音乐的极致热爱，让他始终保持着对艺术的执着追求。虽然涂老师已是古稀之年，但岁月似乎并未在他的身上留下太多痕迹，他的精神状态依然饱满，每一次演奏都充满了激情与活力。Tu Shanxiang, an artist from Jiangxi, has been in his career for 54 years.
