Ignite your imagination at A Musical Journey of Cathay

Conducted by Sun Peng, HKCO‘s Guest Resident Conductor and winner of the first International Conducting Competition for Chinese Music held by HKCO, the Orchestra will conjure up the rustic features of Northeast China with Wang Danhong’s Harvest Dance on Strings. Next, you’ll be transported to the idyllic Jiangnan with Jasmine by Liu Wenjin, and the rambling mountains of Yunnan through Guo Wenjing’s Three Melodies of West Yunnan.
Then, you’ll move on to the thriving cities of Macao and Hong Kong via Zhao Jiping’s Macao Impressions and Law Wing-fai’s Flowing Phantasm. The journey concludes at the Yellow River Basin with The Yellow River Capriccio by Cheng Dazhao – but not before you enjoy a fun, interactive performance with the Orchestra, using the Chinese rattle drum provided by HKCO. Talk about an entertaining concert, fit for all ages!
