NUS Arts Festival 2025: CROSSROADS
Confluence: Where Tradition Meets, explores the dynamic beauty of intersecting musical influences through two distinct works. The first, Night of Electric Winds, infuses classical Chinese sounds with futuristic electronic elements in an exhilarating collision of tradition and innovation. The next piece, Colors of Harmony, weaves diverse ethnic influences into a unified, textured orchestral tapestry. Performed by NUS Chinese Orchestra, these compositions showcase the colorful possibilities that arise at musical crossroads.
