A true encounter between East and West, “The Silk Road Concert” will bring together the Symphonic Orchestra of the Balearic Islands directed by Maestro Pablo Mielgo, with eight distinguished artists from Silk Road countries, namely the violinist Yasmine Azaiez and the singers Bing Bing Wang (Soprano, China ), Burak Bilgili (Bass, Turkey), Fatma Said (Soprano, Egypt), Huiling Zhu (Mezzo, China), Vladimir Galouzine (Tenor, Russia ), Warren Mok (Tenor, China), and Yuan Gao (Soprano, China).
