A winner of today’s most prestigious honours including the Grammy Award, Oscar/​Academy Award, Grawemeyer Award, Bach Prize, Shostakovich Award, and most recently Italy’s Golden Lion Award for Lifetime Achievement, Tan Dun’s music has been played throughout the world by leading orchestras, opera houses, international festivals, and on radio and television.

His recent work Prayer and Blessing, virtually performed from 12 different countries during the quarantine, is an emotive tribute to all the victims of COVID-19 around the world.
