The Beijing Guitar Duo's "interpretative skills and cross-cultural flair," and their "passionate sensitivity that seems to animate the space between the notes" (Baltimore Magazine) has impressed the public since their New York debut at Carnegie Hall.

Also praised by Classical Guitar Magazine as "having the star potential to serve as inspiration for new generations of guitarists to come," the Beijing Guitar Duo, comprised of Meng Su and Yameng Wang, has performed around the world in the most prestigious venues such as the Concertgebouw in Amsterdam, Palau de Música in Barcelona, Tchaikovsky Hall in Moscow, and the National Theatre in Beijing. In the 2023-2024 season alone, they will perform in New York, Philadelphia, Dallas, Fort Worth, St. Louis, Akron, and Austin, in addition to their concert and residency in Baltimore.

Their debut CD Maracaípe, received a Latin-GRAMMY nomination for the titled piece dedicated to them by Sérgio Assad. Their Bach to Tan Dun recording was highly praised for the world-premiere recording of Tan Dun's Eight Memories in Watercolor; and their recording in trio, China West with Maestro Barrueco includes the China West Suite by renown composer Chen Yi arranged for guitar trio.
