Formerly known as Cao Jie, 1949, a native of Changli, Hebei Province, died in 2005. I was taught by my ancestors since I was a child and came to Liu Gongquan Post Station. In the 1960s, he went to Beijing to study folk music and compose music. In youth, music works were published one after another, and music performances moved from the stage to the platform of colleges and universities.

He has lectured abroad for many times, held Cao Jie calligraphy, seal cutting and music art exhibitions at home and abroad, and published and recorded a variety of music, calligraphy and seal cutting works.

There have always been three types of scholars in China: one is seeking truth and being pragmatic; Second, seek use and become famous; Third, seek elegance, seek elegance. Cao Jie belongs to the former. Few people can be as knowledgeable and knowledgeable as him, few people can explain the profound thoughts of the ancients in simple language like him, and few scholars can express these thoughts in various artistic means.

From music, calligraphy, seal cutting and other works of art to teaching students and writing books, Mr. Cao Jie showed the world his solid skills as an outstanding contemporary artist. What distinguishes him from ordinary artists lies in his tracing back to the source, from technique to aesthetics, from aesthetics to philosophy, thus becoming a scholar of oriental culture.

The development, creation and performance of music duet is an important part of Mr. Cao Jie's artistic career. His music style is simple and sincere, telling his heart with his voice, returning to himself and revealing his soul.
