Chen Leiji studied guqin at the Shanghai Conservatory of Music and was the first student of the guqin master Gong Yi. The seven-stringed fingerboard zither is an instrument of Chinese classical music that is essentially played as a solo instrument. The art of Guqin music is a UNESCO cultural heritage and has existed for more than 3,000 years. The original repertoire included several thousand compositions, of which a few hundred are still preserved today and are played and performed regularly. Leiji travels the world as a solo guqin player and was chosen in 2008 to play the most famous guqin piece - "Lost Sound of Antiquity" - at the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games in Beijing.
