Enchanting melodies, a poignant narrative, and a subtle dialogue between Eastern and Western traditions shape the sublime Butterfly Lovers’ Violin Concerto. Inspired by a legend of star-crossed lovers, this iconic work from the Chinese repertoire unfolds with vibrant orchestral richness. The FILMharmonique Orchestra, under the baton of Francis Choinière and featuring violinist Guillaume Villeneuve, will bring out the full depth of this score for an evening where emotion meets virtuosity. The program will also feature the world premiere of the Concerto for Pipa and Orchestra “Dragon” by Quebecois composer Christian Thomas, performed by renowned pipa player Liu Fang.
