She regularly plays within the traditional Chinese music ensemble “Fleur de Prunus” directed by Franis Picard and within the baroque ensemble “XVIII-21” of Jean-Christophe Frisch.

Wang Weiping composes herself some pieces putting in value the capabilities of her instrument.
She came to France to study lyric singing with Xin RuFeng and Alain Rigo at the “Ecole Normale de Musique” (Paris).
"Like the antic princess Wang Zhaojun who, exiled after the Great Wall, accompanying herself with the pipa, song the nostalgia of her mother land, Wang Weiping put her elaborated technique at the service of the greater musicality. Interpreting the thousand old pieces which resounded in the imperial court, she evokes the tumult of the wars as well as the odes to the moon light. She is also a remarkable singer, as expressive with Cantonese songs of the thirties as in the works celebrating the Nature, composed by the Tang dynasty poets." (Franis Picard)
