Kimberly Yip
Guzheng Musician
Hello, hello! I'm Kim and I am a guzheng, Chinese Zither, musician and instructor! I began learning the instrument at the young age of 10 and through the years have led other ensemble musicians in various cultural performances and musical competitions.
Some notable venues and stages where I have performed include - Herbst Theatre, De Young Museum, University of California Berkeley, Chinese Cultural Center of San Francisco, San Jose Center for Performing Arts, Sister Caroline Collins, D.C Theater, San Francisco Marriott, Oakland Asian Cultural Center, Pacific Renaissance Plaza, San Jose State University, The St. Regis San Francisco, and the Chinese Performing Arts of America (CPAA) Arts Center, Oracle Park and Fenway Park to name a few! My favorite part about performing is I can tell a story through music simply by using different tones of the instrument as well as expressive dynamics.
Through music and performing arts, I have the opportunity to share a piece of my Chinese background and heritage with others. I absolutely love collaborating with other musical artists and am excited to share my knowledge and passion for guzheng with the community!
