Beyond the stage: Young musicians make a difference

How can young people use their talents and passions to make a difference in society?

Two young members of the Communist Party of China (CPC) and traditional Chinese musicians share their answers through music. From taking part in Youth Tunes, New Bridges, a cross-cultural collaboration between Chinese and American musicians, to bringing traditional Chinese music beyond the stage and into everyday life, they are finding new ways to preserve cultural heritage, inspire others, and connect people across cultures.

For them, music is more than an art form. It is a way to build bridges, share culture, and turn a sense of responsibility into meaningful action.
