A masterfully conceived dance-opera with a stellar cast of outstanding dancers from the Hong Kong Dance Company, renowned opera singers, and a live music ensemble
Love Streams is one of the highlights of this year’s Hong Kong Arts Festival, featuring two chamber operas, a stellar ensemble made up of dancers from the Hong Kong Dance Company, in addition to 12 renowned opera singers and musicians. It is possibly the first original production of its kind in Hong Kong.
Leading this ambitious venture is Hong Kong’s very own talented and acclaimed choreographer and director Yang Yuntao, who is putting on stage the opera Heart of Coral composed by Chan Hing-yan with libretto by Yi Heng, and the opera Women Like Us, composed by Daniel Lo and libretto by Wong Yi. A challenging double-bill dance-opera production to mount, Love Streams's two chamber operas - Heart of Coral and Women Like Us - were originally commissioned by the HKAF in 2013 and 2021 respectively. The music featured in Love Streams has been re-arranged with an expanded orchestration, and will be performed live by the Hong Kong New Music Ensemble conducted by Vicky Shin.
