Classical Music in China
ArtsJournal: Daily Arts NewsDaily Arts News: "In China, classical music is booming as mightily as the 1812 Overture. It's fortissimo in Shanghai, home to China's oldest orchestra, forte in Beijing and other lively cities, and on a crescendo in farther-flung areas. Commanding Y100-200 ($12.50-$25) per hour, private music teachers in Shanghai can readily earn more than five times the average per capita monthly income.' Financial Times (UK) 01/20/07"
