Conductor

Hong Kong Sinfonietta will provide live accompaniment to Hong Kong Ballet’s five performances of Dunhuang: In Search of Light  under the baton of Vivian Ip.

From the brilliant team that brought the runaway-hit The Butterfly Lovers comes an epic new ballet inspired by Dunhuang sand dunes, Silk Road cave temples where cultures met and flourished and Hermann Hesse’s iconic 1922 novel ‘Siddhartha’. Dunhuang: In Search of Light tells the story of a young man and his search for enlightenment, as he learns about temptation, love, lust and a path toward inner light and growth, guided by several Feitian (Flying Apsaras), celestial beings symbolising grace and movement, along the way. Powerful classical ballet is fused with immersive, cutting-edge visuals and living frescoes that celebrate personal awakening, wisdom and compassion.
