World-renowned bass-baritone and winner of the BBC Cardiff Singer of the World competition, Shenyang, will join hands with four young musicians, namely Liao Xi, Liu Liyuan, Zhang Jingzhuo and Wei Yun, to present the concert “Dreamful Youth”, featuring classical pieces by Gustav Mahler. Violinist Chen Xi, cellist Zhu Mu and pianist Jaya Sun will present the concert “Tribute to the Classics - Piano Trio to Commemorate the Centenary of Saint-Saëns’ Death”, featuring romantic works such as Saint-Saëns’ Piano Trio No. 2. The concert “Bravo Macao!” offers local young musicians a platform to showcase their talents and artistic achievements. Six rising music stars, namely Wong Sin I, Melody Ho, Chio Chin Hou, Ha Iek, Cheong Tin Ut, and Ng Sok Kun, will share the stage to show their talents. The concert “Contemporary Meets Tradition – Cantonese Music Assembly” will gather young musicians from the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area to present a combination of traditional Cantonese music and new arrangements of compositions and singing. Several famous Cantonese music pieces will also be presented.
