"Music about China" by Hong Kong Chinese Orchestra

CANCELLED

We are very honoured and happy to renew our collaboration with the Hong Kong Chinese Orchestra in 2020 with brilliant Kanun virtuoso Hakan Güngör.

A programme of the 48th Hong Kong Arts Festival (2020)

The new ‘Music about China’ will bring together influential composers both at home and abroad, including Enjott Schneider (Germany), Marcel Wengler (Luxembourg), Anthony Paul De Ritis (US) and Hong Kong composers, Leon Ko, Golden Horse Award winner, and Chan Ming-chi, whose Jing•Qi•Shen was recommended by the International Rostrum of Composers organized by UNESCO. Chan’s latest work Another Round, using Cantonese gongs-and-drums and – what else? – mahjong, to vividly depict the life of mahjong players.
