The Orchestra Ensemble Kanazawa comes to Macao to
recite a Mass at St. Dominic's Church, perform a sonata at its altar, and light
candles in honour of Mozart, born 250 years ago. Joining them, the Batavia
Madrigal Singers bare their souls in a motet, after a piano concerto composed
for a Lenten series in 1765 unfolds its sacred motif. Thus, in a spirit of
communion, Japan's youngest orchestra celebrates its Macao debut.
“The sounds were as sweet and delicate as a
Japanese ink drawing and as precise, with shapes rich in contrast” -
