Well into their second decade as one of the world’s leading guitar duos, we welcome back the Beijing Guitar Duo. Meng Su and Yameng Wang, both phenomenal soloists, have created an elegant, yet spectacular ensemble.
“The Beijing Guitar Duo’s performance was a model of elegant clarity, sumptuously beautiful tone production, and emotional contrast” (San Francisco Classical Voice). Legendary guitarist Manuel Barrueco proclaimed them “the best guitar duo in the world.”

Praised by the distinguished Classical Guitar Magazine as “having the star potential to serve as inspiration for new generations of guitarists to come,” the Beijing Guitar Duo made their New York debut in Carnegie Hall in 2010 and launched their international concert career.
Guitarist Meng Su and Yameng Wang make up the Beijing Guitar Duo. The duo has performed around the world in halls such as the Concertgebouw, Palau de Musica, Tchaikovsky Hall and the National Theatre in Beijing. This season will take them to a 12-city concert tour in the United States in February (Washington D.C., Cincinnati, Cleveland, Chicago, Detroit, Milwaukee, Knoxville) as well as other performances in Europe and China. The duo regularly collaborates with orchestras, in ensemble with flutist Marina Piccinini, the Grigoryan Brothers and with their mentor Manuel Barrueco touring in Europe, Australia, Asia and the U.S.
