Incredible improv artist Vi An Diep plays the Chinese harp (Zheng) in 432Hz.
I have been wanting to connect with this artist for 10 years and had a rare opportunity recently to cross paths.

The legendary Zheng played brilliantly by this amazing soul. Doors open at 8PM. Hosted by snkr face and Rubix with DJ Jayzen.
Party Quest Crew will be in full affect!
This is also a little bit of a festival debrief as we had fun last weekend at good ol’ #Fozzyfest!

Vietnamese - Canadian, independent & full-time, professional, contemporary World music recording Artist and composer who improvises intuitively every original piece of music - specializing in Asian long zithers, mainly on the Chinese 'zheng' (箏) 21 and 28 stringed long zithers. Self-taught, real time composer + intuitive improviser on various Asian long zither instruments including Japanese koto and Vietnamese dan tranh. Other instruments include synthesizers and various hand percussion instruments. Subscribe if you support authentic creative expressions, collaboration, community, preservation, activism and sincere innovation. I yearn to contribute to the vast world of Asian long zither music out there but remain steadfast to never 'sell out' by appeasing to the masses. I have nothing to gain and nothing to lose, though I have every reason to share and grow as an original artist!

Vi An played on Zheng (Guzheng) and Lokey on Push at very popular coffee shop Kawa (Calgary).
The Zheng or Guzheng is the parent instrument of the Asian long zither family. Originally believed to have been invented during the Qin Dynasty (897-221 BC).

So far the only 36 stringed zheng, Taiwanese made long zither in the world. Great innovation it was about time this was invented(?), innovated at least, because this is my first time improvising on one this grand of a size! Grateful to the luthier and to Sonia Liu of Vancouver’s « Crystal Gu-zheng Centre » for allowing me this great honour to share.
A shared spontaneous, creative musical expression between Vi An and her husband, Matt Hanson on xaphoon and percussion instruments, with guest musician Bijan Maysami on Persian santur.
