Symphony Kukai, which tells the story of the life and spirit of the renowned Japanese Buddhist monk Kukai, had its European premiere on Saturday at Central Hall Westminster in London, following its initial staging in China and Japan last August. https://t.co/Pj75roIzqa
Kukai was composed by renowned Chinese musician Zou Ye, and the performance in London featured a great international collaboration, including the UK's Orpheus Sinfonia, the Scherzo Ensemble, and the London Chinese Philharmonic Choir, as well as the Choir of the Central Conservatory of Music from China.
An amazing Symphony Kukai that has brought global artists and audiences together in London celebrating over a thousand years of cultural exchange and the altruistic spirit of a great Japanese master. 🙏🙏🙏
