Synopsis
Famed Japanese composer-conductor Joe Hisaishi makes his highly anticipated return with the Singapore Symphony Orchestra. Witness Hisaishi himself lead, from the piano, the world premiere of his suite from the multi-award-winning 2023 Studio Ghibli film The Boy and the Heron, an instant classic steeped in the deeply heartfelt tradition of Hayao Miyazaki. This is followed by his new Harp Concerto, a co-commission by the Singapore Symphony, Los Angeles Philharmonic, Opéra National de Bordeaux and the Philharmonie de Paris, starring LA Philharmonic Principal Harpist Emmanuel Ceysson. Stravinsky’s fantastical tale of Prince Ivan’s fight against evil with the help of the magical Firebird completes these unforgettable evenings.
