畫壁The Painting on the Wall
2018-05-03 20:15 - 21:45, 2018-05-04 20:15 - 21:45
The Painting on the Wall plunges the reader into the fantastical world of Chinese tales and reveals the ‘supernatural’ power of the art of painting. If different readings are possible, the ideas of illusion and transcendence are omnipresent in the work. Angelin Preljocaj has chosen to immerse himself in the heart of this unusual world. Without literally telling its story, he retains the Chinese tale as the source of a more contemporary adaptation.
《畫壁》讓讀者進入中國聊齋故事的幻想世界，原來繪畫具有一種「超自然」力量，要是從不同的角度來解讀，可以說這舞蹈充滿了虛幻之美和超越凡塵的想法，呼應原著「幻由人作」的主旨。柏歷加要沉浸在這不尋常的世界當中，但他並沒有如實搬演聊齋的故事，而是以之為出發點，改編成一齣當代舞蹈。

重塑《魔笛》 Reinventing the Magic Flute
2018-05-12 20:00 - 21:30 | 香港大會堂, 愛丁堡廣場五號, Central District, Hong Kong
莫扎特歌劇《魔笛》在維也納首演十年後，才第一次在法國出現，改稱為《埃及女神伊西斯之謎》(Isis’ Mysteries)。此名稱一方面標示作品中的共濟會特色，另一方面反映當時巴黎的古埃及熱潮。正是在這個環境下，一位不記名的法國作曲家把《魔笛》的序曲及最有名的詠嘆調改編給弦樂四重奏。我們將邀請扎伊德四重奏 Quatuor Zaïde為我們重塑經典《魔笛》。
The Magic Flute was first performed in France under the title Isis’ Mysteries in 1801, ten years after the Vienna premiere. The title referred to the work’s masonic character and reflected the prevailing interest in Ancient Egypt at that time in Paris. This was the context that brought an anonymous French composer to write a transcription of the overture and the most famous arias for string quartet. This year we will invite Quatuor Zaïde to present us with Reinventing the Magic Flute.

Burn Cottage - star NZ Pinot Noir dinner with Andy Crozier
2018-05-22 19:00 - 22:00 | Lai Bun Fu 禮賓傅, 5/F, 18 On Lan Street, Central, Hong Kong, Hong Kong
Join us for our Burn Cottage wine dinner with Burn Cottage’s Andy Crozier, a vertical of fine Central Otago Pinot Noirs to match Chef Chung King Leung’s masterful cuisine at Lai Bun Fu. This dinner is a classic East meets West (or more accurately, East meets South) event. Andy has dipped into the estate’s cellars to bring us a range of vintages from this rising star. There is also a wonderfully idiosyncratic estate-grown white – a blend of Riesling and Grüner Veltliner which we will show for the first time in Hong Kong.
The 2014 tied for top place honours in Decanter’s Vintage Report of 2014 New Zealand Pinot Noirs. That Burn Cottage achieved that (and many other accolades) in just its 6th vintage (we shall taste the inaugural 2009) is testament to the quality of the terroir and the team in place. Owner Marquis Sauvage put Ted Lemon (of Littorai and Roulot fame) in charge, and right from the start the estate was conceived on biodynamic principles.
I was so impressed with the estate’s ethos, the quality of its site, its team, and its wines on a visit early last year that I knew this agency was for us. So I am excited about this opportunity to dive deeper with you. We shall experience the wines’ great versatility with Hong Kongese/Cantonese cuisine at its very best.

Le French May: Sarabande
2018-05-23 20:00 - 21:30 | 上環文娛中心劇院 Sheung Wan Civic Centre Theatre, 香港皇后大道中345號上環市政大廈5樓, Hong Kong, Hong Kong
Three of the famous Suites for cello of J.S. Bach played by Noémi Boutin, interlaced in the extraordinary juggleries of Jörg Müller, outstanding Circassian artist who reconciles a pure physical performance with theatre, dance and contemporary art.
Sarabande is a triptych rhythmed by the famous Suites for Cello of J.S Bach, No. 1, 3, and 5 from where the cellist expresses delicacy and elegance. Her music comes to embrace around three living pictures performed by the tightrope walker and dancer Jörg Müller. In the first picture, Jorg holds his balance with manipulating a candle lit and putting at the end of a pole. The frail and unstable flame asserts its soft vitality despite its fragility. Then, he flies a merry-go-round of suspended tubes. We contemplate them to spin, to touch, to live together without ever disrupting this merry dance. Finally, it is in the fifth continuation for harmonies so intense and deep as the meeting arrives at its peak.
From now on, it is the musician who is suspended, her fragility of interpreter aggravated by the air vaulting which the juggler breathes. And every time, he “turns into pictures” this mesmerizing Sarabande of Bach.

Noémi演奏三首巴赫著名的大提琴組曲，並與Jörg出神入化的雜技互相配合。Jörg是一位出色的切爾克斯藝術家，他的演出糅合肢體表演、劇場、舞蹈及現代藝術。
Sarabande《薩拉班德》為巴赫其中一首家傳戶曉的大提琴組曲(No.1,3,及5)。三組意境細膩優雅的樂曲為高空鋼索特技人兼舞者Jörg的演出譜寫三場充滿生命力場景。第一幕，Jörg把點燃了的蠟燭放在桿子的末端，透過靈巧的身手來保持蠟燭的平衡。微弱和不穩定的火焰雖然脆弱，但卻具有柔韌的生命力。第二幕，他在一些吊管間如旋轉木馬般飛躍、旋轉，時而交錯，時而接觸，現場的觀眾都屏息靜氣地看著他歡快地舞動。最後一幕是和諧的第五次延續，他們之間的相會到了最引人入勝的時刻。
從表演一開始，音樂家以她對音樂細膩的傳繹，隨著雜耍藝術家的呼吸加劇。每一次，他都將迷人的Sarabande變成了一幅圖畫。

貝多芬第三鋼琴協奏曲 François-Frédéric Guy Plays Beethoven
2018-05-25 20:00 - 22:00 | 香港大會堂音樂廳, Hong Kong, Hong Kong
法國鋼琴大師紀弗朗 François-Frédéric Guy對德奧浪漫風格作品之詮釋早成為偉大的典範，在演繹貝多芬的作品方面毫無疑問更是獨具匠心，2017/2018樂季大師走訪巴黎、華盛頓、首爾及南美多個城市等演奏貝多芬的鋼琴奏鳴曲全集及全套協奏曲，好評如潮。大師首度訪港，將與香港國際指揮大賽出爐冠軍卡利及 Hong Kong Sinfonietta 香港小交響樂團演奏貝多芬的第三鋼琴協奏曲，樂曲充滿壯麗的氣魄，緩板浪漫典雅，顯露貝多芬漸趨成熟的寫作風格。
Described as a “hair-raising tour de force” by BBC Music Magazine, François-Frédéric Guy is widely regarded as a specialist of Beethoven, a pianist revered for his approach and technique towards German romantics. He has made appearances in prestigious festivals such as the Beethovenfest Bonn, Chopin Festival in Warsaw and La Roque d’Anthéron and has worked with renowned conductors including Bernard Haitink and Esa-Pekka Salonen.Guy will make his Hong Kong Sinfonietta 香港小交響樂團 début under Gabor Kali, winner of the First Prize and the Orchestra Prize of the 1st Hong Kong International Conducting Competition in Beethoven’s Piano Concerto No 3.

流浪藝人•都市芭蕾 Les Forains,Ballet Urbain
2018-05-26 19:45 - 21:00, 2018-05-27 19:45 - 21:00 | 香港文化中心大劇院, Hong Kong, Hong Kong
八位街舞好手重新詮釋1945年的熱門芭蕾舞劇《流浪藝人》，詩人導演高克多(Jean Cocteau)當年曾譽之為一場「真切的青春與舞蹈盛典」。這個描述流浪藝人在市集表演的精彩節目，在二戰結束後重燃了人們渴求生命的熱情，歌頌流浪藝人的技藝，仍然吸引著今天的表演藝術家。「變革舞團」 創辦人安東尼‧艾朱亞 Cie Rêvolution / Anthony Egéa，試圖重現原劇作曲家亨利‧索格的詩意境界，並邀請香港城市室樂團 City Chamber Orchestra of Hong Kong 在台下演奏，現場又配以DJ Frank2Louise 的電子音樂。
Eight hip hop dancers revisit the successful ballet Les Forains in 1945, as a tribute to this “true festival of youth and dance” (Jean Cocteau). The story about wandering artists doing their fabulous routine in a fair is the very expression of a life taking back its natural rights after a world war, and it still fascinates the performing artists of today. Anthony Égéa Cie Rêvolution / Anthony Egéa from Compagnie Rêvolution tries to restore the poetic dimension of composer Henri Sauguet’s work, with the City Chamber Orchestra of Hong Kong playing the ballet score, mixing with DJ Frank2Louise’s electronic music.
