New names. Fresh sounds. Untold stories.

With her internationally-praised CD "Chinese Dreams", which was nominated in two categories for the OPUS KLASSIK, Lydia is Europe’s leading expert on Chinese piano music.
She is a discoverer of musical treasures with a deep fascination for foreign cultures, who passionately introduces her audiences to composers and music off the beaten track.
