Zhou Long (b. July 8, 1953, Beijing) is internationally recognized for creating a unique body of music that brings together the aesthetic concepts and musical elements of East and West. Deeply grounded in the entire spectrum of his Chinese heritage, including folk, philosophical, and spiritual ideals, he is a pioneer in extensively transferring the idiomatic sounds and techniques of ancient Chinese musical traditions to modern Western instruments and ensembles. <a href="https://www.last.fm/music
