LCSD's "Hong Kong Artists" Series to present Dizi Recital by Candy Yau Kwan-lam in November (with photos)
Local young dizi performer Candy Yau will give a recital in November under the "Hong Kong Artists" Series presented by the Leisure and Cultural Services Department (LCSD).

Through a rich combination of wind, plucked, bowed and percussion instruments alongside piano accompaniment, the performance will lead music lovers on a vibrant journey capturing the diverse musical landscapes of the country.

The performance will open with the Zhejiang-style piece "Wujiang Scenery". It will then transition into a Cantonese music five-piece combo performance of the suite "The Lion Dance, Stepping High, Billowing Waves", capturing the spirited essence of Lingnan music.
