Zhu Nuoya is currently an undergraduate student majoring in Chinese Instrument Performance (Guzheng) at the Nanjing University of the Arts. She started learning the guzheng at the age of six and has been deeply involved in the art of the guzheng for sixteen years. In 2016, she was admitted to the Middle School Affiliated to the Nanjing University of the Arts with excellent grades, majoring in Chinese Instrument Performance (Guzheng), thus starting her professional artistic career. During her time at school, her professional performance ranked among the top. She received high praise from industry experts in several professional recital concerts. In 2022, she was admitted to the undergraduate program of the Nanjing University of the Arts with excellent grades and a high professional ranking, majoring in Chinese Instrument Performance (Guzheng) under the tutelage of Teacher Li Hanyue. During her time at university, she has won numerous awards in professional competitions. For example, she won the special prize in the preliminary evaluation, the gold award in the re-evaluation of the 2022 Chinese Guzheng Art Exhibition, the bronze award in the senior professional group of the Guzheng in the 2023 Nanyang International Music Competition, and the gold award (with the special prize vacant) in the 2024 World Guzheng Competition.

As a young guzheng performer and researcher, I am committed to exploring the contemporary inheritance and innovation of traditional Chinese music. I hope to promote the cultural dissemination and international dialogue of the guzheng art through diverse paths such as stage performances, academic research, and teaching practices. Since I started learning the guzheng at the age of six, more than a decade of professional training has made me deeply realize that the vitality of traditional music lies not only in the inheritance of skills but also in integrating into the global cultural context with an open attitude. In recent years, by participating in international competitions such as the Nanyang International Music Competition and the World Guzheng Competition, I have personally experienced the vigorous vitality of Asian art exchanges and the cultural resonance of traditional music that goes beyond competition. In the future, I hope to use the guzheng as a boat to carry the Oriental wisdom of "harmony without uniformity" into the distance. May every soul that adheres to tradition and embraces the world be able to hear the sound of flowers blooming in their own artistic time zone.
