Live-streamed on October 16, 2021, a virtual concert called “Chinese Church Music Since the Tang Dynasty” was held by Beijing Catholics as the prologue of the recent seminar “The Chinese Face of Jesus Christ” which explored the Sinicization of Catholicism.

Presented in the Church of the Savior in Beijing and mostly rooted in Chinese indigenous music, pieces of different styles of religious music were performed using traditional Chinese musical instruments in chronological order, spanning the dynasties and periods of Tang, Ming, Qing, the Republic of China, and modern times.
