Beijing has staged a concert in memory of Seiji Ozawa, who was born in China and did much to assist cultural relations with Japan and America.
Tuesday’s concert was conducted by Yu Lu, Ozawa’s student from age 19.
Ozawa’s daughter, Ozawa Seira, gave Yu her father’s score for Beethoven’s Symphony No.5, which he then conducted.
