Candlelight Orchestra: A Tribute to Joe Hisaishi, a totally elevated experience where the strings, woodwinds and brass instruments of a 17-piece orchestra transport you into the musical world of Joe Hisaishi, as his compositions from renowned Studio Ghibli films including Howl’s Moving Castle, Spirited Away, and My Neighbour Totoro are brought to life.
Illumnated by Candles
As hundreds of candles illuminate the Victoria Concert Hall, let the enchanting melodies of the orchestra take you on a voyage alongside well-loved characters – from soaring high above the city with Kiki and Jiji from Kiki's Delivery Service to embarking on a perilous quest with Ashitaka to break a deadly curse in Princess Mononoke.
This also marks music conductor and co-founder of Vocalise Lester Kong’s first time conducting an orchestra for Candlelight Concerts. As a seasoned musician with over 20 years of experience, Lester sees Candlelight Concerts as a trendsetter that creates space for the classics in the modern world and brings people from all walks of life closer to the arts.
