Questions for our trip to Carnegie Hall: 

1. What was Chinese classical music like prior to the cultural revolution and how did it change thereafter? 

2. In rejecting the, "international style," how is there no distinct point of origin in the class of 78's music? 

3. Is Chinese composition determined by education, personal experiences or both? 

4. In seeking to bring music back to China, is this a collective or more individual effort? 

5. After 1978 and still today in China, is it dangerous to freely compose and play music? 

6. Why is China considered the last remaining market for classical music?
