In Tribute – The Legacy of Peng Xiuwen

Description

Description

A leading light in Chinese music
Maestro Peng Xiuwen is a colossal figure in the field of contemporary Chinese music, as he laid the foundation for its symphonization, leading to the establishment of the genre, ‘Chinese orchestral music’. It has been twenty years since his passing, but his legacy has not only stayed in music lovers’ hearts but also continued to thrive and spread across the globe. His trailblazing efforts have put his name in the Hall of Fame of music history. The Hong Kong Chinese Orchestra has prepared two performances in a concert series entitled ‘In Tribute – The Legacy of Peng Xiuwen’. The programmes cover many gems in Maestro Peng’s repertoire, whether as original compositions, arrangements or transposed works. They will be conducted by his prized mentee, Yan Huichang, Artistic Director of the HKCO, as a demonstration of the musical lineage between the two, a showcase of Maestro Peng’s compositional prowess, and a tribute to this colossal figure in the music of China!
