One of the performers in Sanlitun on April 24 was Chen Shengyu, 17, who took part in the China Youth Music Competition-Hummingbird Music Award in 2016 and in 2018. In 2016 he won first prize as a solo violinist by playing La Campanella, or The Little Bell, which is the final movement of Violin Concerto No. 2 in B Minor, Op. 7, by Niccolo Paganini. In 2018 Chen again won first prize, performing with the cellist Wang Wanglele, featuring Passacaglia for violin and cello by the Norwegian composer Johan Halvorsen. That year Chen and Wang traveled to Germany together with other winners of the competition, attending workshops and giving live concerts.
