This HKCO series is designed with a focus on Cantonese music, and showcases its diversity that springs from its innate ability to assimilate diaspora elements as constant, refreshing input. This season’s A Legacy of Exotic Lyricism concert has selected vernacular tunes from Shandong, lyrical pieces from Jiangnan, dramatic enactments of Shanxi Clapper Opera, and timeless favourites of the Cantonese instrumental repertoire.
