We’re beginning with an imagined world in which the legendary Chinese poet Qu Yuan, the man whose demise we commemorate every year during the Dragon Boat Festival, lives again 2,000 years after his death.

"Whispers of the Soul” at Villepin Gallery is the first Hong Kong exhibition to focus on the work (no s ) of Lawrence Carroll. The artist died in 2019. The exhibition, set up with the support of his wife, Lucy Jones Carroll, is a tribute to his unique practice of painting.

Since its founding in 1979, the Hong Kong Music Lover Chinese Orchestra has given regular performances in Hong Kong and overseas.

It also aims for innovation, as it’s highlighting in its upcoming concert “New Vibes of Traditional Chinese Music – Harmony”.
