Hong Kong International Flute Festival Gala Concert - Song Without Words

Flute is a very “vocalised” instrument in terms of its playing technique and lots of its repertoire. It is physiologically the closest instrument to singing. There are also a number of works inspired by operas and arias, or vice versa, inspired by the “singing” quality of the flute.
Coincidentally, this year is the 100th anniversary of the death of Italian composer Giacomo Puccini, known for his operas and arias. We would like to dedicate this year’s gala concert to embrace this lovely characteristic of the flute. Let’s sing with the flute with us!

Program includes
Léo Delibes (1836-1891) - Flower Duet from “Lakmé” (1883)
Giacomo Puccini (1858-1924) - “Nessun dorma” from “Turandot” (1924)
Richard Strauss (1864-1949) - Allerseelen (1885)
Giuseppe Verdi (1831-1901) - La Traviata “Act I - Waltz” (1853) arranged for solo piccolo and solo flute with flute orchestra


Artists
Nicola Mazzanti piccolo
Federica Lotti flute
Brian Chan flute
Caterina Stocchi flute
