A truly all-women concert, “La Diva” features eight of Hong Kong’s most widely acclaimed female singers, delivering a series of enchanting arias and exquisite art songs. Accompanied on the piano with a string quartet and a female chorus, the divas will rendezvous at Hong Kong City Hall Concert Hall for a programme that includes operatic works by Bizet, Delibes, Saint-Saens, Mendelssohn, Massenet, Bellini, Korngold, Offenbach, Cilea, Previn, Strauss, Leoncavallo, Verdi, Puccini & Mascagni, plus art songs by Debussy, Rachmaninov, Ben Moore, Villa Lobos & Franz Schubert.
