Tina Guo

Tina Guo is a Chinese-born American cellist and erhuist from San Diego. Her international career as a cellist, electric cellist, erhuist, and composer is characterized by videos featuring theatrical backdrops and elaborate costumes, a range of genres, and an improvisatory style in film, television, and video game scores.

Tina began playing piano at the age of 3 in China. At age five, she moved to the United States with her family, and began violin lessons with her mother Fei-Fei Soong, a concert violinist, who are the current artistic directors of the California International Music and Art Festival.

Guo performed alongside Johnny Marr of the Smiths and Hans Zimmer at the Premiere of Inception, and in a sold-out concert for DreamWorks with Hans Zimmer and John Powell, featuring her as soloist on electric cello and erhu.
