In collaboration with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra and Symphony Center Presents, CFAS will be kicking off the citywide Chinese New Year festivities on February 15 with Sounds of China: A New Year Celebration. The performance will feature traditional and contemporary celebratory works by both Chinese and Chinese American composers, such as Jiuyue Ma, Chen Yi, and Lei Liang.

This concert will mark CFAS’ debut at Symphony Center.
