Xu says in his later years, Mu told others in Wuzhen that one day he would play his music, but it was not until after his death that it was finally performed.

In 2016, the museum held a concert featuring composer and pianist Gao Ping, who was authorized by the museum to reproduce Mu's musical legacy-mostly parts of melodies, rather than complete compositions.

In addition to those newly reproduced compositions by Gao, this year's concert will have even more songs that feature lyrics taken from Mu's poems.

"It might be the good melodies of Mu's poems that make people want to use them in songs," adds Xu.
