    Xiangxi Tujia Women’s Daliuzi & Hong Kong Women’s Percussion Ensemble
    (
    TEA-liuzi
    World Premiere)
    Enlightened by an in-depth field trip to Xiangxi, Tan Dun explores the possibility of merging the
    Daliuzi
    (percussion of Tujia) with tea culture. Drawing from tea-making techniques, he creates the world premiere of
    TEA-liuzi
    . This innovative piece allows two female percussion ensembles from Hong Kong and Xiangxi to engage in a dialogue that bridges the past and the future, as well as the East and the West.
    (ii) Lost Tang Dynasty Music and Dance Manuscripts:
    The Vanishing Mogao Caves
    Having immersed himself for years in ancient music manuscripts stranded overseas and the murals of Dunhuang, Tan Dun has recreated numerous ancient musical instruments from the Tang dynasty. Together with the Dunhuang Academy Ancient Music Consort, he will take the audience thousands of years back to experience the restaging of
    The Vanishing Mogao Caves
    through ancient dance, vocal performances and mini-operas. In addition to the world premiere presented in Paris last year, new elements of ancient music will debut in this performance on stage.
