Starting with an Overture, the concert chronically narrates stories of representative traditional Chinese festivals using Chinese orchestral music, revolving around the themes of Lantern Festival, Qingming Festival, Dragon Boat Festival, Qixi Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival, Chung Yeung Festival, Winter Solstice and Spring Festival. With a grand lineup of more than 100 performers, this concert presents a cultural feast that integrates Chinese festivals with original Chinese music, blending tradition with modernity. A vividly freehand, imaginative musical journey across of time and space over millennia, an extraordinary aesthetic enjoyment, indeed a wonderful night that you can’t miss!
