The Oscar-winning composer Tan Dun’s landmark opera blends Eastern philosophy with the language of Western music. This is the first time the work will be heard in Hungary, and it will be conducted by the composer himself. Set in the 7th century, it tells the story of the passionate love of a Japanese prince and a Chinese princess, and of their fateful quest for the legendary The Classic of Tea by Lu Yu. After its showing in Hong Kong, Csaba Káel’s direction will now be performed before the Müpa Budapest audience with exceptional international soloists such as Lucy Fitz Gibbon, praised by the Boston Globe for her “radiant, virtuosic singing”, and the Japanese tenor Motoki Ishii, renowned for his mastery of the Italian repertoire. The sounds of water, paper, ceramics and stone are transformed into music to create a sensitive and mesmerizing sonic world. Together, the sound and visuals promise a truly unique experience.
