Abstract
This article focuses on the life and creative activities of the famous Chinese cellist Lin Yingyong (born in March 1959), a graduate of the Moscow Conservatory (1980), who devoted her life to performing in a string ensemble and teaching. She and her colleagues became the founders of the Shanghai Women's Quartet. At the same time, Lin Yingyong was a professor of the Shanghai Conservatory, where she worked with young musicians over half a century. During this time, she produced a vast number of cello textbooks, pieces of play-books and cello arrangements such as "Cello Exercises", "Selected Cello Concertos for Young People" and many others, which were well received by teachers and young performers. Lin Yingyong has educated many students of different ages, from schoolchildren to undergraduate and postgraduate students. These include Lan Jie (first prize at the Piatigorsk Youth Competition in Los Angeles in 1990), Li Bo (special prize at the IXth Tchaikovsky Competition in Moscow in 1996), Yang Manganse (second prize), and Xie Guangyu (third prize) at the International Prokofiev Competition in Russia in XNUMX.
