"East Meets West" Orchestral Concert: The Butterfly Lovers' Violin Concerto Gang | Zhanhao (+1 More)

Performed by Australia’s extraordinary local talent, esteemed musical performers, and an outstanding Symphony Orchestra conducted by renowned music maestro Guy Noble, the “East Meets West” Orchestral Concert is a colourful compilation of internationally celebrated classical works including the critically acclaimed Chinese compositions the “Butterfly Lovers” violin concerto and the “Yellow River” piano concerto featured alongside an enticing line-up of celebrated classics and representative western works.

An ethereal yet haunting rendition of He Zhanho and Chen Gang’s “Butterfly Lovers” violin concerto showcases a stunning synthesis of Eastern and Western sensibilities achieved through the artful juxtaposition of traditional pentatonic melodies and harmonic undertones from the West. This internationally recognized violin concerto is based on an ancient Chinese legend recounting the unbreakable bond between two young lovers, often referred to as China’s very own “Romeo and Juliet”.

The “Yellow River” Piano Concerto is another expressive Chinese masterpiece that integrates the classical qualities and typical structure of post-romantic music with poignant themes of passion, beauty and strength. All of this is then paired with a series of technically advanced solos that will leave viewers entranced throughout the entirety of this exquisite night of enchanting performances.
