Bel Canto Singers: Yu Kwang-chung’s Words & Music @ Hong Kong City Hall Theatre – 8pm, 4 February, 2015
Born in Nanjing in 1928, Yu Kwang-chung work’s have long been hailed as poignant expressions of emotions and are extremely popular with composers in China, Hong Kong and Taiwan. They have been set to music to express nostalgia for the motherland, concerns for mankind, feelings of being at one with Nature, and reflections on the facets of Life.
The concert programme features vocal works written and re-arranged by composers inspired by Professor Yu’s poems including Titita (in two different versions by Taiwan composers Chen Mao-shuen & Ma Shui-lung), Nostalgia in Four Rhymes (in three different versions by Taiwan composers Lo Da-yu, Yang Hsien & Chin Shi-wen), The Sunflowers (Hong Kong composer Tang Lok-yin), What is the Rain Saying through the Night (pianist of the programme Julie Kuok), The Night Watchman (Hong Kong composer Hui Cheung-wai), Nostalgia (Mainland China composer Chao Daijian), On Such a Windy Night (Taiwan composer Chen Mao-shuen), The Answer and Your Smile Last Night (Taiwan composer Jenny Chou), The Blind Fortune-teller (Bel Canto Singers Artistic Director & tenor David Quah), Firefly (Taiwan composer Tai Ching-chuan) and And When I Die (Hong Kong composer Richard Tsang) and the Hong Kong premiere of Hong Kong composer Victor Chan’s Strange was the World.
The concert will be performed by tenor David Quah, soprano Margaret Yim, mezzo-soprano Emily Liu and bass Edmund Kwan, accompanied on the piano by Julie Kuok, with readings by veteran radio presenter and music critic Dennis Wu, hoping to transport the audience to the world of the Muse.
