I know they use Chinese traditional instruments to make modern music - I'm a big fan of that. And they went to nice music conservatories, they know how to play! And they are big in Japan (well isn't everyone) - the fastest selling Chinese group album in Japanese history. Go girls!

Never heard them though..........

Yes I know them. First they drew my attention by playing Brubeck’s “Take Five” on those qins. I thought immediately I am going to by me the DVD but then they started playing Mozart and it was horrible.

They are like…Vanessa May. Good looking, young Chinese girls, but they play like monkeys – without giving the music at least a fraction of their soul. The only charm created during their concerts is the one of traditional instruments. But it’s simply a matter of fashion. In the Beatles’ times it was sitar which was the ultimate “traditional instrument”. Now it is qin. What’s next? The Russian balalaika might be?

Ouch, that's a harsh review, Troll.... :/

Balalaika won't be for sure, because it's hard as hell to play it ;)
