The Japanese legendary maestro Joe Hisaishi is a well-known composer, conductor, arranger and pianist. He will join hands with the Japan Century Symphony Orchestra to present this impressive concert that transcends time and space, inviting the audience to traverse the divide between classical and contemporary music.
The ebullient song of life represented in Schumann's Symphony No. 4, the resounding question of fate raised in Beethoven's Symphony No. 5, and Viola Saga, the latest masterpiece by Joe Hisaishi, constitute an in-depth dialogue between tradition and modernity, classic and avant-garde music. Welcomed into the mind of this eminent art creator, the audience will have a taste of an endless exploration of music genres, undaunted breakthrough of technological boundaries, and a profound reflection upon life and the world.
