Following the reopening of cinemas, screenings of Hong Kong Sinfonietta’s “Back On Stage” concert (Special Extended Version) will take place on 22 Sep (Tuesday) at MOViE MOViE Pacific Place, and 27 Sep (Sunday) at MOViE MOViE Cityplaza, with meet-the-artists sessions accompanying both screenings where audiences may get to know the musicians in person.
The “Back On Stage” concert was recorded at Hong Kong City Hall Concert Hall in June, when the venue was still closed to live audiences due to the ongoing pandemic. Led by Music Director Emeritus Yip Wing-sie and concertmaster James Cuddeford, the concert features four captivating works which represent the best of strings-only music. The Special Extended Version presented in this ground-breaking collaboration between Hong Kong Sinfonietta and MOViE MOViE introduces a selection of precious behind-the-scene footage, providing a glimpse into the world of professional musicians away from the spotlight.
