"a blooming program of classic Chinese repertoire, capped off with Tchaikovsky’s First Piano Concerto.” - Limelight Magazine

The programme for this concert features a colourful combination of classical masterpieces from the East and the West. Li Huanzhi’s (李焕之) joyful and exuberant piece, Spring Festival Suite, brings a delightful festive ambience to the stage as a chorus of cheery notes evokes the lively atmosphere of Chinese New Year celebrations. Erhu instrumentalist Tuqiang Zhang will continue to showcase these high spirits with his captivating performance of the classic Qin Erhu piece Tune of Meihu,  a popular Chinese folk song originating from the yellow river era. Another Chinese classic New Horse Racing will be brought to the stage using a melange of traditional Chinese instruments to depict the exciting atmosphere of Mongolia’s traditional horse racing festival.  Tchaikovsky’s Piano Concerto No.1. will also be performed by Chinese-Australian pianist Tony Lee in a showcase of world-class dynamics and exquisite technique, leaving listeners captivated as they are immersed in a splendid display of exquisite refinement.
