Inspired by the qualities of the mythological centaur associated with the zodiac sign, the revolutionary Sagittarius takes the audience on a captivating journey under a starlit sky witnessing the birth of an exhilarating fusion of the jazz and classical symphonic genres.
Also on display in this showcase is a dazzling constellation of compositions by Kenneth Li, being the culmination of the inspirations and insights gained over years of classical training and jazz performances, as well as his latest venture into compositions and research to breathe life into the untapped potential of blending two different aesthetics.
Known for the signature pulsating rhythms and infectious grooves, his renditions ingeniously bridge and meld the jazz and classical styles in a uniquely inventive language, guiding and enthralling audiences in the dynamic discovery of the thrilling yet celestial sonics.
