Cars were forced off the road and factories closed in Beijing on Saturday after the city was once again blanketed by hazardous smog.
The government issued a level-four red alert on Friday - the most serious of a four-tier warning system.
The alert, the second in as many weeks, means schools have to close and half the vehicles banned.
The wave of smog is expected to cover the notoriously polluted city until Tuesday, due to a lack of strong winds.
Levels of PM2.5, the smallest and deadliest smog particles, rose as high as 303 micrograms a cubic metre in some parts of Beijing on Saturday, and could top 500 in coming days - more than 20 times the level considered safe by the World Health Organization.
Data published by the US embassy in Beijing showed a high of 261 in the Chaoyang district in central Beijing in the early hours of Saturday morning, falling to 139 by mid-afternoon. Beijing's Municipal Environmental Monitoring Center said the overall air quality was at 104. Some residents took to Weibo - China's version of Twitter - to say the smog was not as severe as they had been warned and complain about the driving restrictions.
China's government has faced criticism for not issuing severe smog warnings more often. The four-tier smog warning system was launched two years ago but Beijing had not issued a red alert until this month.
However, Beijing resident Ma Yunan said the government was now doing a "better job than before".
"In previous times, the government would not issue red alerts even when the haze was very serious," Ma Yunan told the Associated Press news agency.
"Now they are publishing alerts beforehand for us to get ourselves prepared and the alerts are accompanied with some measures."
Beijing's smog problem is largely blamed on coal burning power plants, industrial pollution and the booming number of cars. The city's geography worsens the problem because mountains on three sides trap smog.
Residents frequently don face masks for their day-to-day activities in an attempt to reduce the health risks. Studies suggest as many as 1.4 million in the country die early because the smog - nearly 4,000 per day.
China is the world's biggest carbon emitter but has said it plans to reduce hazardous emissions from coal-fired power plants by 50% over the next five years. However, overall emissions are expected to peak by about 2030 before starting to decline.
Bream was born in London and brought up in a musical environment. His father played jazz guitar and the young Bream was impressed by hearing the playing of Django Reinhardt. Bream began his lifelong association with the guitar by strumming along on a small gut-string Spanish guitar at a very young age to dance music on the radio. The president of the Philharmonic Society of Guitars, Dr Boris Perott, gave Bream lessons, while Bream's father became the society librarian, giving Bream access to a large collection of rare music. On his 11th birthday, Bream was given a guitar by his father. He became something of a child prodigy, at 12 winning a junior exhibition award for his piano playing, enabling him to study piano and cello at the Royal College of Music. He made his debut guitar recital at Cheltenham in 1947, aged 13. He left the Royal College of Music in 1952 and was called up into the army for national service. He was originally drafted into the Pay Corps, but managed to sign up for the Royal Artillery Band after six months. This required him to be stationed in Woolwich, which allowed him to moonlight regularly with the guitar in London. After three and a half years in the army, he took any musical jobs that came his way, including background music for radio plays and films. Commercial film, recording session and work for the BBC were important to Bream throughout the 1950s and the early '60s.
In the years after national service, Bream pursued a busy career playing around the world, including annual tours in the U.S. and Europe for several years. He played part of a recital at the Wigmore Hall on the lute in 1952 and since has done much to bring music written for the instrument to light. 1960 saw the formation of the Julian Bream Consort, a period-instrument ensemble with Bream as lutenist. The consort led a great revival of interest in the music of the Elizabethan era. His first European tours took place in 1954 and 1955, and were followed by extensive touring in North America (beginning in 1958), the Far East, India, Australia, the Pacific Islands and other parts of the world. Bream performed for the Peabody Mason Concert series in Boston, first solo in 1959, and later with the US debut of the Julian Bream Consort. In addition to master-classes given in Canada and the USA, Bream has also conducted an international summer school in Wiltshire, England.
