Barbara Hannigan appears in a remarkable dual role - as both soprano and conductor - in a concert full of contrasts, surprises, and unexpected connections. The programme bridges seemingly distant worlds: from the meditative depth of Charles Ives, through the dramatic energy of Haydn’s 'Farewell' Symphony to the expressive intensity of Schoenberg’s Verklärte Nacht. The evening culminates in a vibrant suite from George Gershwin’s Girl Crazy, adding lightness and rhythmic drive.
漢尼根身兼女高音與指揮,於這場充滿對比和驚喜的音樂會中展現卓爾不凡的雙重才能。音樂會曲目串連起看似迥異的藝術境界:從艾菲斯《尚未解答的問題》深沉靜謐的冥想沉思,到海頓《告別交響曲》的戲劇張力,以至荀白克《昇華之夜》濃烈炙熱的情感世界,最終以歌舒詠音樂劇《瘋狂女郎 》歡快奔放明朗輕盈的組曲畫上句號。

2026 marks the 95th birthday anniversary and the 30th anniversary of the passing of Peng Xiuwen, a towering figure in modern Chinese orchestral music - a trailblazer of 20th-century Chinese music whose output not only laid the artistic foundation for the modern Chinese orchestra, but also propelled it onto the international stage. On this occasion, the Hong Kong Chinese Orchestra pays tribute showcasing Peng’s original compositions and timeless arrangements, recapturing the grandeur of his works and honouring his enduring legacy with guest musicians from China Broadcasting Chinese Orchestra.
