A kaleidoscopic and immersive multimedia recital by German-Japanese piano star Alice Sara Ott!
Alice Sara Ott’s 10th album, “Echoes of Life,” released on Deutsche Grammophon, has been transformed into an original concert experience. “Echoes Of Life” reveals the delicate subtleties of Chopin’s 24 Preludes, interspersed with seven works by contemporary composers including György Ligeti, Tōru Takemitsu and Ott herself. The recital is accompanied by a video installation by architect Hakan Damirel, presenting a truly immersive and creative concert journey.
Since the project premiered at the Southbank Centre, London in November 2021, the project has toured to many major venues and festivals including in Paris, Munich, Lucerne, and Istanbul plus a major tour in Japan. And now, finally to Hong Kong!
