Echoes of the Silk Wind is curated by Chinese Pianist Siqian Li and traces a musical journey along the Silk Road from China to Europe, exploring how melodies evolved as they travelled through diverse cultures.
Guzheng virtuoso and Baritone, Kang Yang, is redefining Chinese music on the global stage, joining Siqian Li in the first set.
The programme begins with works inspired by China's landscapes, poetry, and Uyghur traditions before moving west through the Caucasus and Anatolia to Andalusia. Along the way, it highlights the shared musical language connecting these regions, with pieces by Fazil Say, Albéniz, Babajanian, and Chu Wanghua reflecting the folk traditions, cultural exchanges, and enduring influence of the Silk Road across continents.
