The Chinese-born, San Diego-based musician Wu Man has built a reputation as an eclectic, adventurous artist, one who bends genres as wildly as she does the strings of the pipa, the two-milleniums-old instrument she champions.

This season Wu Man was awarded a prestigious grant as part of the San Diego Foundation’s Creative Catalyst Fund – Individual Artist Fellowship Program. The grant has allowed her to pursue her next project, which combines music from Asian and Latin American cultures in a collaboration with local Mexican group Son de San Diego. The final concert will be presented by the Carlsbad Music Festival in September 2014.
