Guangdong Music Series: 'Embracing the Duality of Cantonese Music' Concert

Led by young musicians Yu Lefu and Chan Pik-sum, the ensemble will present the 'duality of Cantonese music' as advocated by Master Yu Qiwei to embrace the modern and the traditional.  These brilliant players, marked by their youthful vigour, will demonstrate their extraordinary skills in their interpretation of the traditional music genre.  Born to a family of gaohu virtuosi in Guangzhou, Yu Lefu is an ingenious gaohu player and an avid fan of guitar and rock-and-roll music.  Apart from giving lectures at the Chinese Music Department of Xinghai Conservatory of Music, Yu also explores and pushes the boundaries of different music genres in his performance.  Chan Pik-sum is a much sought after huqin player in the local music circle and a versatile musician well-versed in Chinese music, pop music, modern music and Nanyin.  Yu and Chan will play alongside with Zhang Yueru, concertmaster of the Macao Chinese Orchestra, for an impressive huqin trio.  They will be joined by Ricky Yeung Wai-kit, Sha Jingshan, Bryan Lai, Cheung Wai-lok, Yanki Ma, Tong Shaomin, Yin Yu and Liang Jia.
