RiverRun Festival: Huang Ruo: A Moonlit Night on the Spring River

The enchanting and diverse landscapes and rivers of China have inspired and shaped Chinese art and music for centuries. In this unique concert, curated and led by composer/conductor Huang Ruo, landscape and soundscape merge. As ancient and new music come together in performance, reflecting the influence of these elements through history, space and time also converge to create an unforgettable experience of the beautiful waterways, geography, and rich culture of this vast continent.

Works will include pieces for voices, pipa, violin, cello, and piano. Program highlights include the Yellow River Piano Concerto (4th Movement), A Moonlit Night on the Spring River, and “Seascape” from Ruo’s Angel Island Oratorio.
