2007-02-13 : Guqin Master Xu Kuanghua passed away
The great qin Master Xu Kuanghua 徐匡华 passed away passed away on February 13th, at the age of 90. Since a child, at the age of 13, his life was focused on the guqin. At 1989, he established the Xihu Guqin Society. He spent so many years of his life teaching the art of the guqin at the qin school of Zhejiang, which was founded by his father, Xu Yuanbai 徐元白.
When 85-year-old, he participated in Zhang Yimou's movie Hero, performing as an elderly blind man who plays the guqin.
Our deepest sympathies. 深切哀悼.
