Two basses, two worlds, one unforgettable finale
This November, Musicus Fest presents a grand season finale like no other. Italy’s acclaimed, Abbiati Award-winning Mantua Chamber Orchestra joins forces with Hong Kong’s finest soloists for an evening of dazzling dualities—featuring a rare double bass duel between Juilliard Doctoral Fellow Dominic Law and international competition prize-winner Victor Lee, alongside a spellbinding performance by Zhang Ying, Principal Pipa of the Hong Kong Chinese Orchestra.
From Boccherini’s theatrical drama to Vivaldi’s sparkling energy, and from a rare double bass duel to an enchanting East-West dialogue, this program spans centuries and continents in a single evening.
Double the contrast, double the mastery—an extraordinary night of musical discovery.
