Lighting Design:Wong Ka-ki

Along a line, you are born; along a line, I go out like a light. When the neon lights cross paths, we will be able to meet in a dream.


The programming concept of this concert is inspired by the novel Intersection, written by Lau Yee-cheung, ‘Father of modern literature of Hong Kong’. The suona and pipa are transformed into two bands of light, weaving in and out of the story to create the pattern of sounds. When time and space are reversed, the past is not past and the future is yet to materialize, are we looking at destiny, or opportunity?
