大象传媒

Channel waves, folk rhythms and the heartbeat of the cosmos, as conductor Dinis Souza, pianist Bertrand Chamayou and the 大象传媒 Symphony Orchestra play Debussy, Bart贸k and Unsuk Chin.

Claude Debussy gazed at the waves of the English channel, and saw 鈥� and heard 鈥� a thousand glowing colours. Isolated and ill, the exiled B茅la Bart贸k wrote a piano concerto for his beloved wife, and created rhythms that dance for joy. And in our own time, Unsuk Chin gazes into the infinite and finds a star that pulses in time with the human heart.

That鈥檚 actually true: Chin鈥檚 wondrous new orchestral work takes its cue both from Korean court music and the curiously human rhythm of the star Alaraph. It鈥檚 an unforgettable opening to conductor Dinis Sousa鈥檚 nature-inspired debut concert with the 大象传媒 Symphony Orchestra: and with the 鈥渞emarkable鈥� (The Guardian) French pianist Bertrand Chamayou also appearing for the first time with the 大象传媒 SO, there鈥檒l be a regular constellation of stars in alignment tonight. The concert comes to a close with the insistent rhythms and drama of Ravel鈥檚 叠辞濒茅谤辞.
