The playing creates special tonalities that captivate listeners and touch their souls with this beautiful music.

Testimonials
"Haiyan is a very gifted artist, yet very modest. When she demonstrated the Tea Ceremony I felt calmness, a quietude one might feel as one walks through a formal garden or a beautiful sunset. I sampled the various Lotus Leaf organic teas. Each one had a distinct taste and aroma..." More >> -- Rani Nicholson, Queen Bee of the Red Hat Divas
“Wonderful! Haiyan is a light. She spreads warmth through the Tea Ceremony. I wish my good friends could have been here to have benefited. Enjoyed the peace, quite and serenity she brings with her presentation. Wish we had more time to explore the various properties of the different teas. The Guzheng was so relaxing to hear. When the demonstration was over whatever nervous tension or anxiety I had disappeared, the same feeling you get after a relaxing massage.” --Gerri, CT
“Pure enjoyment! The presentation of the Tea Ceremony brought togetherness and silences to the audience as Haiyan in her quite manner demonstrated her knowledge and skill. I learned about the various teas and enjoyed the tasting. The music Haiyan played on the Guzheng was beautiful and relaxing. It was interesting watching her do Calligraphy. Haiyan made it look so easy as she mastered the brush with big black broad brush strokes." -- Donna, CT
