The Lustrous Pearl – In Celebration of the 20th Anniversary of the Establishment of the HKSAR

Description

Description

Zhejiang Province is known as the ‘land of culture’ in China, and enjoys a wealth of natural resources from its talented people, fertile land and the yield from the numerous streams and canals. On the occasion of the 20th anniversary of the Hong Kong SAR, the Hong Kong Chinese Orchestra has invited the Chinese Orchestra of the Zhejiang Conservatory of Music for a joint concert. The programme includes solo performances by Zhang Ying, Pipa Principal, and Chen Yi-wei, Principal Sheng, of the HKCO, and dizi performance by Du Rusong, Company Director of the ZJCMCO and a dizi virtuoso himself. The two orchestras will perform music on the Jiangnan theme, such as The Fishermen’s Triumphant Song, Seeking Dreams on West Lake and The Broken Bridge in the Snow. From the regional musical influence of Zhoushan luogu to the famously scenic West Lake, these pieces recreate the vernacular charm of Zhejiang. The HKCO is also delighted to have Wu Muye, internationally renowned pianist, to guest perform a piano solo piece, My Motherland, and a piano concerto, The Yellow River. This concert series will conjure up the bounteous landscapes of mainland China for the audience through music, and perhaps evoke nostalgia and yearning among the ethnic Chinese coming from all parts of the world.
