This concert will feature Ricky Yeung Wai-kit, the first dizi performance doctoral graduate in China, and Sha Jingshan, a well-known plucked instrument player from Guangzhou. The concert title, Cantonese Rhyme, Poetic Homeland, is derived from Yeung’s original composition supported by the China National Arts Fund 2024 Performing Arts Production Project. The programme includes a diverse selection of music, featuring original dizi and pipa pieces by Yeung and Sha, as well as new interpretations of Cantonese music and dizi classics. Renowned Hong Kong pianist Dr Timothy Kwok will provide the accompaniment.
The performance will run for about 1 hour 50 minutes including a 15-minute intermission.
