Chinese singer and songwriter Han Hong will give a solo concert. Han specializes in a variety of Chinese folk music. Her signature works are “Tibetan Plateau” and “Heaven’s Road.”
　　As an energetic and slightly wild singer, Han shows another side of her personality through her music: gentle and restrained. She is able to shift quite easily from piercing high pitches to soft, low tones. Although she mainly deals with Tibetan themes, as a pop singer in Beijing, Han has had a lot of exposure to different styles of music. Her influences include jazz, R&B, rock and Latin music, which are all reflected in her work.

　　Quite a number of Han’s songs relate to her roots in Tibet. In her mind, her hometown hasn’t changed in any way since the day she left at the age of 9. In the song “Hometown,” she sings an ode to the vast land and recalls her carefree childhood. The song throws light on the mysterious and rich culture of Tibet and swept various pop song billboards across China.
　　Since she started composing in 1993, Han has written a number of popular songs for other singers.
